If you want to get on Why the Heck Did I Buy This House, you will need to send the show an email to apply.
Kim Wolfe, the host of Why the Heck Did I Buy This House, reassures homeowners who were disappointed with their homes after they purchased them.
Wolfe has encouraged fans of the show to apply to be on the show, by simply emailing in their application. But the actual selection process to be chosen may be more complicated than that.
Why do people watch Why the Heck Did I Buy This House?
Buying a new home is always a large investment which can be daunting in and of itself. However, things can really get out of hand if this home turns out to need more than just a fresh coat of paint after you purchase it.
On Why the Heck Did I Buy This House, Kim Wolfe actively works to prevent this kind of buyer’s remorse by trying to ensure that homeowners actually love living in their newly-purchased homes.
How to get on Why the Heck Did I Buy This House?
Most homeowners will have one or two issues within their homes that they would eventually like to fix up, but the homes that are featured on Why the Heck Did I Buy This house are in such bad shape that they require the help of professionals.
Wolfe, who is the host of the show and is most well-known for winning the 24th season of CBS’s Survivor, has actually been a passionate renovator for quite some time.
She considers it “an honor” to renovate the dysfunctional homes that appear on the show alongside her team of professionals.
It seems as though the show’s unique premise and Wolfe’s eye for design has paid off so far and she seemingly confirmed that Why the Heck Did I Buy This House has already been renewed for a second season on her personal Instagram page.
This post, which she shared on 17 August 2022, also included a casting call for fans of the show who may have been wondering how they can get on it.
It turns out applying for the second season of the show is as simple as sending an email to hello@wolfehome.com.
However, it is worth noting that the comment section of this post is already flooded with fans confirming their entry, so it is probably best to apply sooner rather than later if you are interested.
Where is Why the Heck Did I Buy This House filmed?
If you are considering applying to be on Why the Heck Did I Buy This House, it is noteworthy that the second season of the show will most likely be filmed in San Antonia, Texas, just like the first season of the show.
But Wolfe did not mention any geographical restrictions for entry in her Instagram post.
Filming for the show most likely takes place in San Antonio because Wolfe is a long-time resident of the city herself.
As a result, she likely knows all about the real-estate market and the habits of the families that she aims to help on the show.
How to increase your chances of getting onto the show
Applying to be on Why the Heck Did I Buy This House may be as easy as sending an email, but actually getting onto the show may be much more complicated.
Neither Wolfe nor HGTV has revealed any details as to how they go about picking which houses will appear on the show, but the show’s first season has revealed one big trend.
One of the things that will give you a greater chance of making it onto the show is having a house that was built in the 1960s or 1970s.
Six of the seven houses from the first season of the show fell into this category and this trend will likely continue in future seasons.
All about the second season of Why the Heck Did I Buy This House
Although Wolfe’s casting call post makes it seem like season two of Why the Heck Did I Buy This House is a done deal, HGTV has still not officially put out a statement about the show’s renewal.
However, if you are planning to apply to be on the show, you can rest assured that Wolfe moves quickly with her renovations.
In fact, during the first season of the show, Wolfe renovated seven houses at a time over the course of the 24 weeks that it took to wrap up the season.
This means that this second season may start airing as early as the end of the 2023 year.
