Beth and John Share Their Experience as First Time Homebuyers

HGTV's House Hunters

Great Spouse Great House is going national. National TV that is. My wonderful buyers Rachel and Casey and I were selected to be on an episode of HGTV's #1 show House Hunters.

Being on House Hunters has been a huge dream of mine since beginning real estate and Rachel and Casey were so kind to give it a go with me. After filming a demo tape in their Charlestown apartment and some creative editing on my part, the producer said we were all exactly what they were looking for and couldn't wait to come to Boston to film us.

So about 2 weeks ago we shot the first part of the show which consisted of interviews with all of us. My part was a little stressful because they asked if they could interview me while driving. Of course I said yes (what was I supposed to say?). So picture this, I am driving TJ's cadi (the nicer of our 2 cars and the one I would want to be seen on national tv driving. ) But, it is huge and not the easiest thing to drive around the city streets of Charlestown. The weather is raining. Of course, it was during the period when we had like 4 weeks straight of rain. I am in the driver's seat. The camera guy is the passenger's seat with the camera 6 inches from my face. The sound guy and the producer are in the back on either side of the car seat base for our son. So I am driving around the city, trying to remember where I am going, trying to answer questions that the producer wouldn't tell me ahead of time (they wanted the answers to be natural), trying to avoid the random pedestrians who want to play frogger with traffic while praying that the rain will stop so my hair will not be a total frizzball on national tv. I can barely even remember what I said. But, despite all that, we got back safe and sound and the producer said I did a great job.

Rachel and Casey were awesome as well. Both were very natural on camera and funny too. I think the final episode will be very entertaining for all to watch.

We will be filming the second part in September and hopefully will be on the air in early 2010. Seems so long to wait but I promise it will be worth it.
