UnderContract TakingBackUp

Lindsay & Chelsey

Imagine if HGTV got a little Bravo drama and a dose of NPR self-awareness — that’s us. We're veering off the paved path of perfectly vanilla MLS listings: hitting potholes, swerving off topic/off-script sometimes, with backup opinions, backup stories, backup facts, backup plans, and backup guests — the chaos of real estate and real life. If you’ve ever treated Zillow like a guilty pleasure, fallen down a listing rabbit hole, cried over an inspection report, or survived a deal worthy of its own reunion episode — grab a drink, pull up a chair, and settle in. You’re our kind of people. xoxo
