S28E13 Testing the waters in Drammen, Norway

Miguel and Runi Valenzuela's love story began in college, leading to a wedding just nine months later. Settled in San Diego with two children, their lives took a turn when Miguel lost his engineering job. Runi suggested relocating to her hometown of Drammen, Norway, which is 5300 miles away. With Miguel starting a new job soon, they need to make a swift transition. However, Norway's fast-paced auction market presents challenges, as all bids are final. Real estate agent Ragnhild Haaning shows them three properties: one outdated near town, a pricey new build further out, and an affordable fixer-upper. The Valenzuelas must quickly decide how to allocate their $700,000 budget before making a commitment they can't retract, as they navigate the complexities of house hunting in Drammen.
