00:00Some windfalls rely on chance.
00:03I didn't win the lottery.
00:05Some windfalls are given with love.
00:07I didn't have an inheritance.
00:09And some windfalls are earned through hard work.
00:12This is going to be your life.
00:14We can potentially live here?
00:15You can afford this.
00:17Oh, that's weird.
00:18After nine years of medical school, Duncan is now a doctor.
00:22And on the hunt for a home he never thought possible.
00:25These ceilings are dramatic.
00:28Bigger closets.
00:31Oh, wow.
00:32Put a whole dresser in the closet.
00:35Fancier kitchens.
00:36Both of the ovens?
00:37There's two?
00:38That's a both?
00:38And a backyard made of dreams.
00:41This is what happens when you're a doctor.
00:49I'm on my way to Athens, Alabama.
00:55Super pretty.
00:56Beautiful.
00:57Like, look at these.
00:58Houses.
01:01The crepe myrtles are myrtling hard.
01:04Stunning.
01:06So I'm really excited to meet my newest homebuyers, Duncan and Taylor, to see what their story is.
01:11Like, what's the vibe?
01:12What's the story?
01:13I'm here for it all.
01:15Oh, my gosh.
01:24Yes, hey.
01:25Hi.
01:26Hi, David.
01:27Oh, my God, Taylor, how are you?
01:28You're precious.
01:28Good to be here.
01:29You're so nice to meet you, too.
01:31Oh, my God.
01:31Nice to meet you, too.
01:32Oh, are we ready for this?
01:34Let's do this.
01:34I'm ready to hear your story.
01:36There you go.
01:37Awesome.
01:37After the ladies first.
01:38You're a giant.
01:39But you got to walk like this.
01:43You got to put your hands up, babe.
01:44Oh, sorry.
01:47Alabama.
01:48Yeah.
01:48You guys are so cute.
01:51There you go.
01:52You are, too.
01:53Say it again.
01:53It's not often we get to Alabama.
01:57So this is adorable.
01:59Like, the town is cute.
02:01Why am I here?
02:02So I didn't win the lottery.
02:04Okay.
02:05And I didn't have an inheritance.
02:07But my income's about to drastically change.
02:09I finished medical training, and my salary, base salary, literally went up five times.
02:15Congratulations.
02:16That's a big deal.
02:17It was a long time.
02:18That's a lottery winner.
02:19100%.
02:20A well-earned one.
02:21Yeah, I'm about to make a different amount of money than I've ever made in my life.
02:25Does that feel weird?
02:26Yeah.
02:27New tax bracket.
02:28Very odd.
02:28We're looking forward to when we can go to, like, a shopping mall and, like, not have to worry about the ticket item, you know, like, each receipt one day.
02:37Like, yeah.
02:37It's really exciting.
02:38It really is.
02:39Did you get to choose to be here in Alabama?
02:41Yeah, I did.
02:42Taylor's actually from here.
02:43Yep, I grew up here.
02:45Pretty much all my family's here.
02:46Really?
02:46It'll be really nice to be back here and to see our daughter grow up.
02:49Do you have a daughter?
02:50Yeah.
02:50How old?
02:51Almost two.
02:52Lainey Louise.
02:53Had to be super southern.
02:54Of course.
02:55Yeah.
02:55Double name it.
02:56Gotta double name it.
02:57Double name it.
02:57All right.
02:58House.
02:59Doctor's house.
03:01It's gonna be big, isn't it?
03:02Yeah, I think we were thinking, like, 3,000 or 4,000 square feet.
03:06Yes.
03:06Yeah, definitely.
03:07Starter home.
03:08Yeah.
03:09A little shack on the side of town.
03:11Yeah.
03:12Four bedrooms, like, three bathrooms.
03:14He loves golfing, so that would be lovely if we could get on a golf course.
03:18You're going in for the lifestyle.
03:21Yeah.
03:21Yeah.
03:21The doctor and doctor's wife lifestyle.
03:24And you wanted a really big yard.
03:26Yes, a yard so that my daughter can play.
03:29Do we have, like, a price point?
03:30I wanted to keep it under, like, 8, 850.
03:33I was thinking, yeah.
03:34It's a great number.
03:35Yeah.
03:35Different houses than what we're used to, that's for sure.
03:37We're coming from a two-bedroom apartment, like, you know.
03:40Spread the wings.
03:40Spread out.
03:41A little bit, yeah.
03:42I'm excited for you guys.
03:43For sure.
03:43So because I don't know what's happening here in the Alabama area, Tiffany is going to
03:47help us find your first mega doctor home.
03:50Sounds good to me.
03:53Founded in 1818, the town of Athens, Alabama, might not be as old as Athens, Greece, but it is
04:00home to a lot of historic architecture, like Tiffany's office, which is right next door.
04:05Oh, this is haunted.
04:06If they don't have a Halloween party here, then I don't want it.
04:11Ow.
04:14Love the house.
04:16So good.
04:17Holds the house?
04:181898.
04:19Is it haunted?
04:20For sure.
04:22Sometimes it feels very haunted.
04:24How many ghosts are here?
04:25One that we're for sure of.
04:27I think maybe two.
04:28Male or female?
04:29Like where they live?
04:30What's their vibe?
04:31So, um, one, we call Shirley, and she is the fun one.
04:36So she keeps me on my toes.
04:38She'll shut doors for me and turn on lights for me and things like that.
04:42Historical Athens says the other one is the man who actually built the property, Henry Wharton.
04:49Oh, yeah.
04:49He's here.
04:50So he's for sure.
04:51He's for sure here with us.
04:52This town is adorable.
04:54Tell me the vibe of what Athens is all about.
04:57So, to me, my version of Athens is community.
05:01Um, everybody here just wants to see everybody else succeed.
05:05We want to keep the historical preservation of downtown.
05:08We love our square.
05:10Athens is what, like 35,000 people?
05:12Mm-hmm.
05:12But we're growing.
05:13So 2023 to 2024, about 5.3% in growth, which brought 1,600 residents to Athens.
05:22So...
05:22People are moving in.
05:23They're moving in.
05:24Is there a lot of building happening here?
05:25There is.
05:26Okay.
05:26We have a lot of money that has moved in to Athens.
05:29What's the most expensive house in Athens?
05:31I sold it a couple of years ago.
05:32It was 2.1.
05:34I love that.
05:34So...
05:35All right.
05:35So, Duncan and Taylor, like, I...
05:39No wonder why they want to move back here.
05:40There's a lot going on for such a small town.
05:43Can I see?
05:44Absolutely.
05:47Ooh.
05:48These are cute.
05:49These are incredible spaces I'm excited to get out and explore.
05:52I was not expecting it to be as bougie as it is.
05:56It is.
05:56It's a great, great feeling.
05:59Athens is having a glow-up.
06:01With a surge in population, the real estate market is reshaping to meet demand.
06:06With hundreds of new homes recently built, under construction, and in the pipeline, the town architecture is changing.
06:16We're not doing track homes here.
06:17They're doing custom homes.
06:19They're keeping the lots large, which I think is really, really smart.
06:23Just like this custom home in a fancy, established neighborhood.
06:30Kiva Court's an amazing house.
06:32It's got four bedrooms and four bathrooms.
06:35It's almost 3,700 square feet.
06:37Huge.
06:38Just about $850,000.
06:40Very grand, very southern.
06:42Oh, my God, here we go.
06:44Oh, come on in, my darling.
06:47Wow.
06:50This is going to be your life.
06:52We can potentially live here?
06:53You can afford this.
06:55Oh, that's weird.
06:56It's crazy right here.
06:57Let's get, let's start.
06:58Very grand dining room.
07:01Huge, right?
07:02For your dinner parties and your cocktail hours.
07:04That'll be insane.
07:05It's going to be so much fun.
07:06I'm excited for you.
07:07Why don't you guys take a seat?
07:11Fireplace, good for Christmases.
07:12I mean, this feels like magazine cover, doesn't it?
07:16It does.
07:16Yeah.
07:16Yeah.
07:17Like, it feels, like, idyllic.
07:19It feels very southern.
07:20Uh-huh.
07:20Yeah.
07:21Elegant.
07:22Understated, but not really understated.
07:24I love the open floor plan.
07:26Yeah.
07:27Behind the formal living room is a smaller, cozier family room.
07:31And connecting the two is an impressive kitchen equipped with all the little luxuries.
07:36Is this a real vent hood?
07:39Yeah.
07:40That's...
07:40That was on her wish list for sure.
07:41Definitely.
07:42None of that fake vent hood stuff.
07:45Love it.
07:46This was one of the things that I really was looking forward to.
07:49Take a look at all the ovens.
07:50Both of the ovens?
07:50Both of the ovens?
07:51There's two?
07:51That's a both?
07:53Oh.
07:53Wow.
07:54Is it needed?
07:55No.
07:56You know what's needed?
07:57A signature suite to extend this family.
07:59Let's get into it.
08:00Signature suite is fabulous.
08:04Wow.
08:05Right?
08:06I love the tall ceilings.
08:08Oh, yeah.
08:08Look at this.
08:09Like it's grand.
08:11Oh, yeah.
08:11Go into the bathroom, check it out, feel your expensiveness.
08:15Nice big shower.
08:17This is a test for me tall guys.
08:20Oh.
08:20All right, I'm good.
08:21You can finish both.
08:22Good, right?
08:23This is so pretty.
08:25Are we tub people?
08:26Tub?
08:27I want to be.
08:28You want to be?
08:29I want to be a tub person.
08:31We just really have never had one.
08:35Why'd you guys check out the closet?
08:37Wow.
08:40Holy mackerel.
08:40Wow.
08:41Put a whole dresser in the closet.
08:42Good, right?
08:43Wow.
08:43Beautiful.
08:44We love it.
08:45Love the huge closet.
08:45All right, let's go get our money on.
08:47Let's go look at more, more bedrooms.
08:51This would be a perfect room for Lainey.
08:54Ooh.
08:55Isn't this adorable?
08:56Yes.
08:57This is so great.
08:59All right.
08:59It has its own en suite.
09:01So cute.
09:03Oh, I love this.
09:04This is perfect.
09:05Upstairs are two bedrooms, a full bath, and a versatile playroom that could easily transform
09:11into a teenage retreat or a guest getaway.
09:14But outside is what dreams are made of.
09:18This is what happens when you're a doctor.
09:21I cannot.
09:23I cannot.
09:25Oh, I love this.
09:27My daughter can run all over the place.
09:29Yeah.
09:30And play.
09:31And big, beautiful pool.
09:32And swim.
09:32And swim.
09:33And swim.
09:33This resort-style backyard comes complete with a cabana and fully loaded kitchen.
09:40You got a sink.
09:42You have a wine fridge.
09:43You have it all.
09:44Like, it's good.
09:45Yes.
09:45Everything.
09:46It's everything.
09:46You don't even have to go back inside.
09:48I love that.
09:48It's so good, right?
09:50Yeah.
09:50What about tomorrow?
09:51What can I do for you?
09:51Um, maybe see if there's something in the golf course community or something like that.
09:54Sure.
09:55Yeah.
09:55Can't hurt to look.
09:56No.
09:56Never.
09:56Cost nothing.
09:58Should we walk around the neighborhood a little bit?
09:59Yeah.
10:00You guys are with that?
10:00It's a little warm, but, you know.
10:01It's so idyllic.
10:05Yummy.
10:11We are here in Athens, Alabama, looking at some bougie properties for Duncan and Taylor.
10:18One of their things on their wish list was to be in a golf community.
10:21So I found them a wonderful house in a beautiful golf community.
10:26Everything's landscaped.
10:28Hydrangeas are bigger than I've ever seen in my entire existence.
10:31Like, there's construction happening, but can you hear it?
10:34No.
10:38But that's, okay, that's not construction.
10:40That's lawn.
10:42They make things pretty.
10:44And I'm here for it.
10:49Craft Crossing.
10:50It's got four bedrooms and three bathrooms.
10:52It sits on a 0.4-acre lot.
10:54Lots of space.
10:55It's almost 3,100 square feet.
10:58And the price is $775,000.
11:02It's like a little cottage.
11:04It's really cute, isn't it?
11:05I love all the brick.
11:07Come on in, my darlings.
11:10Wow.
11:11Oh, it echoes.
11:12Right?
11:13Hello, hello.
11:14These ceilings are dramatic.
11:18Wow.
11:19They're huge.
11:20Aren't they?
11:21Beautiful kitchen, just like we had yesterday, but totally different.
11:27It even has a pot filler.
11:29Okay, you got to check.
11:30Does it have a usable?
11:32Oh, yeah.
11:32Check it out.
11:33See if it's usable.
11:34Okay, so we got a light.
11:36Ooh, listen.
11:37Perfect.
11:38Ah, grand and gorgeous.
11:41It's three settings.
11:42Like, I don't want two settings.
11:44I need three.
11:45And I need my light setting to have a daylight, a nightlight, and a work light.
11:50Let's go see a bedroom.
11:52Storage.
11:52Yes, please.
11:54Gorgeous.
11:55Ooh.
11:55Beautiful.
11:56I love the ceilings.
11:57Signature suite.
11:58Yeah.
11:58Yeah, the ceilings are fantastic.
11:59Yeah.
12:00They've kept with the drama.
12:01Check out the bathroom.
12:02Cool.
12:02Oh, wow.
12:04Double sinks.
12:05Love that.
12:06Yes, please.
12:06Space.
12:07I can see myself.
12:08The meals aren't too short.
12:09That's the thing.
12:10That's really nice.
12:11Yeah.
12:11You're a tall lad.
12:12Yeah.
12:12And there's a tub.
12:14A good-sized closet.
12:15Oh, yeah.
12:16I can fit everything.
12:16Built-ins.
12:17Yeah, I love the built-ins.
12:18Built-ins are nice.
12:18For sure.
12:19Built-ins are nice.
12:19That's great.
12:20Yeah, that's good.
12:21Let's go look at some bedrooms.
12:22Cool.
12:23Across the hall from the main bedroom is a nursery.
12:27And in similar layout to Kiva Court, when toddlers become teens, upstairs has everything
12:32they need.
12:34More playrooms, more hangout rooms, and more bedrooms.
12:38This would be a great space for Lainey to have when she's like 14, 15.
12:42Her own space, her own bathroom.
12:44Like, mom, don't bother me.
12:45Right.
12:46You know that's going to happen.
12:47I'm not looking forward to it.
12:48Oh, enjoy the time.
12:50All right, let's go outside.
12:51All right.
12:53Ooh.
12:54Great little Lainey.
12:55Big, huge backyard.
12:56There is so much opportunity to do really beautiful, unique moments here, like kids' area.
13:02You can do pergolas and grow some beautiful vines on it.
13:05We want to see, like, things to create shade so you can really enjoy being out in this big
13:10backyard.
13:11Spend the money on your landscaping, for sure.
13:14You like the property?
13:15Love it.
13:15I love it, actually.
13:16Good.
13:16Fantastic.
13:17Tomorrow, what can I do for you?
13:19I love the cottage feel, so maybe something kind of along the same lines.
13:24Well, should we go and see how much a golf cart's going to be?
13:27Because, you know, you just never know.
13:29We can go race.
13:30If you've come into some money, give us a call.
13:35Come play with me.
13:36We'll help you find a house.
13:37Details are below.
13:39Duncan and Taylor are starting their new life here in Athens, Alabama, and I'm helping them
13:45find a dream home they never thought possible.
13:48And we've been checking out a golf community that's quietly booming.
13:52So, since they love this community so much, I'm just going down the street at Longleaf Lane.
14:00And it's right on the golf course.
14:02Longleaf Lane is an amazing property.
14:04It's got four bedrooms and four bathrooms.
14:06Almost 3,300 square feet.
14:08That's on a quarter of an acre.
14:10And we're right in the middle between Kiva Court and Craft Crossing at 825.
14:17It's adorable.
14:18That's a golf cart garage, by the way.
14:20Golf cart garage.
14:20Look at that.
14:21If I must.
14:22You have to.
14:23All right.
14:23Come on in, my cutie pies.
14:26Oh, my God.
14:27It's so cute.
14:27Isn't that gorge?
14:28Love it.
14:29I feel like I just walked into a cottage.
14:30Right.
14:31Shall we sit down in this vibe?
14:32Yes.
14:33All right.
14:33Why don't you guys sit over here?
14:35We have a gorgeous fireplace over here, which I think is wonderful.
14:39Oh, yeah.
14:40I like how it's kind of semi-open feel to the whole space here.
14:44I feel like Alabama will never have a totally open vibe.
14:47Yeah.
14:47These are newer builds.
14:48And I love a good open floor plan, but there are such disadvantages of it when it comes to the kitchen.
14:52Like, if you're pots and pans in a true open floor plan, and you're seeing those, you're sitting here going, oh, my God, it looks horrible.
15:01So the semi-open, it kind of disguises it just a little bit.
15:04Like, I can't see the sink right now.
15:05Right.
15:05Yeah.
15:06Exactly.
15:06But you know it's full of sippy cups.
15:08All the sippy cups.
15:09Yeah.
15:10All the toddler sippy cups, for sure.
15:11All the time.
15:13All right.
15:13Let's get into that kitchen.
15:14Let's see it.
15:15It's much larger than yesterday, right?
15:18I love it.
15:19I've never seen, like, a copper.
15:21Yeah, the true copper sink, that's new to me, too.
15:24I haven't seen it before.
15:25You know what that is?
15:26Money.
15:29Money.
15:29No wonder I haven't seen it before.
15:30Right.
15:30I know you want to go over to that hood and see if it works.
15:33I do.
15:33Can we?
15:34Fucking reach it.
15:37Yes.
15:39Even the hood looks extra fancy.
15:41I like it.
15:41You know why?
15:42The whole thing.
15:42Because it is.
15:43So there's a little cute moment I want you to go and see.
15:46You are too tall.
15:47All right.
15:48So you're going to stay out here with me.
15:49There is a pantry right here.
15:51You got to go check it out.
15:55Whoa.
15:58What?
16:01Oh, my God.
16:01Stop.
16:02This is so fantastic.
16:06Wow.
16:07Good job, David.
16:09That's so fun.
16:11Isn't that fun?
16:11Yeah.
16:11What a great hiding spot for Lainey.
16:14Yeah.
16:14That's true.
16:15Right?
16:15It's like a nice, like, little play area.
16:17It totally is.
16:18It's like her little spot.
16:19Yeah.
16:20With Lainey's hideaway set, we need to check out Mom and Dad's, a signature suite with Alabama's trademark tray ceiling, a luxe en suite with fancy finishes to match the kitchen, and a walk-in closet so big it even fits the laundry.
16:37Wow.
16:38Wow.
16:38Oh, my gosh.
16:39There's so many things in this closet.
16:41Wow.
16:42And it goes all the way.
16:44That's a nice touch.
16:46So good, right?
16:47Beautiful.
16:48Yeah.
16:48That's wonderful.
16:48Now let's go see where Lainey's going to sleep.
16:50Yeah, let's do it.
16:50Are you going to have separation anxiety that it's upstairs?
16:53Honestly, probably, but I'll get over it.
16:55This charming home is full of warmth and space.
16:59Upstairs, there's plenty of room for their daughter to grow and generous guest rooms ready to welcome visiting family.
17:06There's two queen beds in here, and there's so much space.
17:08Great room.
17:08Oh, yeah.
17:09Right.
17:09Yeah.
17:10And those sweet southern summers can be spent soaking up the beauty of the backyard.
17:15Oh, wow.
17:17Right on the golf course.
17:18Right on the golf course.
17:19Like, it's magical.
17:21Yeah.
17:21Let's go take a seat over those lovely chairs over there.
17:24It's a good amount of space.
17:26You can put an outdoor dining table here, because then you can eat outside with Lainey and family.
17:30Yeah.
17:31An entertainment space?
17:32You like the property?
17:33I do.
17:34You gave us a lot of decisions to work on.
17:35Good.
17:35Yeah.
17:36Good.
17:36It's going to be tough.
17:37Let's get it done.
17:38Yeah.
17:38Shall we?
17:38Sounds good to us.
17:39Want to go see the pool?
17:40Yes.
17:41Yeah, we'll see it.
17:41Love that.
17:42Let's do it.
17:43Actually, let's go take a swim.
17:45Please.
17:45I'm going to go run out there.
17:46Look how cute that would be.
17:47Let me just...
17:48And frolic.
17:49The Alabama Bougie Life.
18:06Can you stand it?
18:08What a pleasant thing to experience.
18:10Yeah.
18:10It's nice.
18:11Now that you're through, like, the most difficult time, you get to sit back, enjoy...
18:16A little bit.
18:17Yeah.
18:17The money.
18:18I don't mean it.
18:19It is really exciting.
18:20I kind of said this finishing fellowship the other day was, like, I feel like I'm getting
18:23back to life.
18:25When you're in medical school and training, you have to kind of put life on the side.
18:27Now I want time to really slow down.
18:29So now it is the time to let go.
18:31Ah.
18:32Exactly.
18:32Okay, let's talk about these houses.
18:33Okay.
18:34Civa Court.
18:35Great one to start with.
18:36Like, that was, like, a resort vibe.
18:39Definitely.
18:40The whole back pool house and the pool itself.
18:42Yeah.
18:43Very cool place to be.
18:44Kitchen was huge.
18:45Yeah.
18:46The street was huge.
18:47Like, everything was big.
18:48Yeah.
18:49Yeah.
18:50Yeah.
18:51And then we went to Craft Crossing.
18:52Great house.
18:53The only one that had vaulted ceilings.
18:54And then upstairs, Delaney can go up there and play any time she wanted to.
18:57Backyard stock.
18:59The best.
19:00It was really, really sensational.
19:02I mean, a lot to do back there.
19:03It was very much an empty slate to where you can do whatever you wanted, which I really
19:07enjoyed.
19:07It was fun.
19:08Yeah.
19:08Longleaf Lane did not disappoint.
19:10I wanted to keep you in that community.
19:11Keep up the golf vibe.
19:12We had the two-car garage plus the golf car garage.
19:15Yeah.
19:16Extra there.
19:16That sounded so fun.
19:18Yeah.
19:18I liked it.
19:18So good, right?
19:19Oh, yeah.
19:20I put you on the golf course.
19:22It was very cottagey.
19:23The pantry was super fun.
19:25That was really good.
19:25Just kept going and going and going.
19:27Right.
19:28Well, shall we get to it?
19:30We'd be that cheesy couple that says it at the same time.
19:32If you didn't, I would be so disappointed.
19:36Come on.
19:36Be that couple.
19:39We chose.
19:46Shall we get to it?
19:49We chose.
19:53Craft Crossing.
19:54Craft Crossing.
19:54Love it.
19:57It's so adorable.
19:58Getting big.
20:01Craft Crossing is a great, great house.
20:03What made you choose that?
20:04It came down to, honestly, the backyard was really big.
20:07We really like to be able to, you know, make something our own.
20:10I've already got a bunch of ideas.
20:12I love that.
20:13Congratulations, my loves.
20:14Thank you so much, Davis.
20:15Thank you so much for everything this week.
20:17It's been so much fun.
20:18You guys are just darling.
20:23We chose Craft Crossing.
20:24It really checked all of our boxes for the place we are in life right now.
20:29The neighborhood was beautiful.
20:30We can take golf cart rides and drive around, and I can get on the golf course for sure.
20:36We have guests.
20:39Hello.
20:39Welcome.
20:39How's it doing?
20:42Being back in North Alabama is wonderful.
20:47Oh, this looks marvelous.
20:50I know, right?
20:51Lady Lou.
20:54I love the house, though.
20:55It looks so great.
20:56And now y'all can grow your family.
20:58Let's at least unpack boxes.
21:00It was everything for me to have Taylor close back with her family and be able to have Lainey
21:05close with our family.
21:07She's like, come on, come draw with me.
21:09To learn how close of a family we can become.
21:12You got it, baby.
21:13You got it.
21:15Go, Lainey.
21:16Look at you.
21:18Thank you so much, David.
21:19David, thank you, really.
21:20For your time.
21:21And we just had so much fun with you, so thank you.
21:23Thank you so much.
21:24We love you.
