Location, Location, Location viewers were left baffled while watching the Channel 4 show as one property hunter struggled to find a one bedroom flat in London with a hefty budget
Location, Location, Location fans were left enraged during a recent episode of the Channel 4 property show. It came after a woman with a whopping budget struggled to find a one-bedroom flat in the capital.
Hosts Phil Spencer and Kirstie Allsopp were back to help buyers find their dream homes, as Phil headed to central London to find a flat for Chloe. The medic had a generous budget of £450,000, and told the host she wanted a one-bedroom flat with parking for her motorbike.
Junior doctor Chloe had been searching for a flat for 7 months, telling cameras it had been “a bit of an epic fail.”
Viewers saw Chloe and Phil head to areas such as Tooting, Balham, and Earlsfield to find her dream home. However, fans were distracted as they left fuming with how little property hunter Chloe could get with her hefty budget.
“£475k for a one bed house, Wtaf #locationlocationlocation,” said one enraged fan, while another penned: “Nearly half a million pounds and yet still hard to find a one bedroom flat in South London with space to park a motorbike pretty much sums up how much London is f****d.”
A third called for Chloe to move out of London, by writing: “How can you have a budget of £450k and it not get you a one bed flat with a bloody front door? Just move out of rip off London!”
However, another thought Chloe was being “too picky” with her search. “To picky in London and she only has £450,000!” they exclaimed.
Despite the struggles, Phil helped Chloe to find a flat in Earlsfield for £415,000.
The episode comes shortly after duo Phil and Kirsty 25 years of Location, Location, Location. At the end of April, Channel 4 celebrated with a whole night of programming dedicated to the show, including a special containing never-before-seen bloopers and outtakes.
The series kicked off its 43rd run on 14 May, and just before, Phil and Kirstie took a look back at the changing socio economic trends of the UK property market over the period.
Speaking on their 25 years together, Phil gushed: “Although quite surreal, it’s also been fun looking back and seeing not only how we have changed through the 25 years, but also watching how our friendship developed and then strengthened across the years.
“Being able to visit every part of the four nations and support hundreds of people in their home searches has been an enormous privilege – none of which would have been achievable without so many brilliant people behind the camera.”.
