Best Home Renovation and Real Estate Shows on Netflix

Sometimes it’s nice to watch a series where you can see the transformation of a home that was previously in disrepair or disorganization, change into something that is extremely aesthetically pleasing. It is satisfying in a way, and also a little inspiring-- perhaps with some hard work, you could make some changes to your own home for the better! DIY home renovation/design shows are extremely popular for that reason-- they offer viewers the chance to see first hand what goes into changing the inward and outward appearance of a home. The technical and creative skills of the hosts are also fascinating to watch as well. Who doesn’t like to see how a house can truly transform with some structural changes and a good dash of interior design inspiration!

Real estate shows are also extremely popular to stream on Netflix. How else would you get to see inside unique and luxurious homes all over the world? Even though viewers know that these houses are nowhere near their price range, there’s just something about those out-of-reach homes that make you want to know and see more. These shows give viewers a peek inside a world of real estate that would never be available without the bank account to also afford these homes as well.

It’s no surprise that Netflix is one of the top producers of amazing original content. Among some of their best series are those that actually feature characters who are real estate agents as well! It’s interesting to see the portrayals of agents, and how they go about balancing their work in real estate with their personal life. In case you can’t get enough home related series, we’ve included some of these shows on the list as well.

Best shows to watch on Netflix if you want to watch real estate deals

Selling Sunset

If you’re ready to get into the ultra-luxe world of the Los Angeles real estate market, then Selling Sunset is your best bet. This show is best categorized as a docusoap-- which means that while technically it is meant to be a reality series, there seems to be some moments and some plot twists that can’t be anything but scripted (maybe just a little).

This series follows a group of glamorous female real estate agents who work for the Oppenheim Group selling million dollar homes. The series is full of all the drama you would expect from the competitive world of the luxury home market, but it also the cattiness that can erupt between the agents. People love this series because not only do they show beautiful homes, but they get to indulge in the guilty pleasure of watching people’s drama-- no matter how insignificant!

World’s Most Extraordinary Homes

If you can’t wait to be impressed by some of the most uniquely constructed homes all over the world, then World’s Most Extraordinary Homes should definitely be on your binge list. This series follows the architect Piers Taylor and real estate enthusiast Caroline Quentin as they travel the world looking for some of the most interesting homes. The houses on this program are all in the multi-million dollar listings-- but that is not the focus of the show. This series wants to focus on the homes’ unique architecture, and the truth behind the reason the owners of such properties choose to create their living spaces.

Some of the houses they’ve visited include houses that are built into the cliff sides, as well as buildings that are inspired by ships-- something you truly have to see to believe!

What’s For Sale? With a View

If you’re not only interested in touring beautiful houses, but also think that having a great view is important as well, make sure to catch up on episodes of What’s For Sale? With a View. The houses on this show are beautiful, of course, but the catch is that the view has to be just as pleasing on the eye as the home. The series focuses on potential buyers who have a very specific idea in mind when it comes to the view they want-- and the lengths they go through to get it.

Episodes include clients who want a peaceful view of a lake, to escape the hustle of a busy job, as well as buyers who want to have the best view possible of Central Park from their condo. Having a particular idea in mind for a view can be limiting, but well worth it when the buyers find that perfect view.

Netflix shows that portray real estate agents

Santa Clarita Diet

You wouldn’t think it at first glance, but there is definitely a real estate angle to the wildly popular Santa Clarita Diet on Netflix. This show portrays a normal, everyday couple who is trying to raise their daughter in Santa Clarita. Where things get interesting is when the wife, Sheila-- played by Drew Barrymore-- starts an unexpected and dramatic transformation into a living, breathing zombie. Or as close to that as possible.

Before her transformation, both Sheila and her husband worked as realtors in their neighborhood. It is interesting to note that a running theme throughout the show is the characters’ pronunciation-- or mispronunciation-- of the word Realtor. There is quite a social media debate about whether it should be pronounced Real-tor or Real-a-tor. Whichever way is correct, this show is definitely worth a watch!
