Episode synopsis
Sarah meets Christy and Matt, who poured their savings into a seven-bedroom south London terraced house, paying more than £1million for a property that's in serious need of restoration. With no spare money, they need to do all the work themselves - a task that becomes even more complex when they discover rotten beams. The programme also features Heather and Dave, who bought converted stables in Derbyshire a year ago but have still not moved in, and architect Ian, whose purchase of an old radar training centre overlooking Morecambe Bay has turned out to be a problematic buy.
About Help! I Bought It at Auction with Sarah Beeny
Every year, thousands of properties are sold at auction, ranging from modest two-up, two-downs to multi-million-pound, waterfront mansions. But they often have some nasty surprises hidden beneath the floorboards and need a bit of love and affection to turn them into a dream home. Cue Sarah Beeny. She’s been buying, building and transforming properties for thirty-five years and she’s fascinated by the world of auctions. In this series she’ll be offering a dose of realism as brave new owners try and take their auction buys from derelict to diamond.
