00:01After hitting the jackpot...
00:03That is humongous.
00:05Shanna and Steven can't believe their luck.
00:08This is what I'm talking about.
00:09Right?
00:10I can't even believe I'm, like, standing here.
00:12Because their world just got a whole lot bigger.
00:14We could put, like, a slide coming out of there.
00:16That's a really big slide.
00:18And we found them something so special.
00:21Can I show you a little surprise?
00:23A surprise?
00:23Even I can't resist.
00:25Oh, my God.
00:27Oh, my goodness.
00:28Oh, my goodness.
00:37So I just landed in Allentown.
00:40I guess we're in the Lehigh Valley.
00:42Close by the Poconos-ish.
00:45I don't know anything about inland Pennsylvania.
00:49I love always learning.
00:52So I'm meeting Shanna and Steven.
00:54Steven came into some considerable money.
00:56How they came into it, I have no idea.
01:00So I'm anxious to hear all about them.

01:2910, 11, and three.
01:31Okay, nice little gap.
01:33Yeah.
01:33Did you win the lottery or did we come into it with other means?
01:36I won the lottery.
01:37I was at home with my daughter.
01:39And then it has this whole meltdown that we have no ice cream sandwiches.
01:42Hilarious.
01:43So we go to the store.
01:44At the self-checkout I'm like cashing out and I like see the machine.
01:47So I'm over there.
01:48I'm like picking them.
01:49I'm like, what should we get?
01:50My daughter said that one.
01:51I scanned this ticket and it pops up with like fireworks and confetti and it's like congratulations.
01:57Seven million dollars.
01:59Yeah.
02:00That is humongous.
02:02Life changing.
02:03Yeah.
02:03Like what was life like before?
02:05So before we were both working full time.
02:08I worked as a nurse and he worked in like the service industry like fast food stuff like that.
02:13No, so we were doing okay.
02:15But you're doing more than okay now.
02:16We're doing okay now.
02:17Has it sunk in?
02:19I turned around at work and I said I'm out and ran out the back door.
02:23Yeah, you did.

02:29I play hot and seek like eight hours a day.
02:31And he gets his nails done.
02:32I get my nails done.
02:33That's really sweet.
02:35Yeah.
02:35It's really special.
02:36We're gonna buy a good house, right?
02:38Where is that?
02:38Hopefully.
02:39Bedroom wise, we want a minimum of four, three bathrooms.
02:43And I would like for my daughter to have her own bathroom.
02:46Of course.
02:47I feel like my kids will appreciate that one day.
02:49Does that sound like a 5,000 square foot moment?
02:51Yeah.
02:524,000 square foot moment?
02:53Somewhere in there.
02:53Around there.
02:54Where are we looking by the way?
02:56Like Lehigh Valley area.

03:00Money.
03:01A million dollars max.
03:03A million bucks.
03:04A million bucks.
03:04Did you ever think you would say that in your lifetime?
03:06No.
03:07No.
03:07Are you ready for this?
03:09Yeah.
03:09Hopefully.
03:09Give me some love.
03:10This is gonna be so great.
03:14Steve and Shana gave me a great big budget.
03:18So I'm excited to see how much house that can buy them with my agent Janelle.
03:24A million dollars.
03:25That is a lot to work with.
03:27That's super exciting.
03:27Is it gonna give me a lot here?
03:28Absolutely.
03:29Absolutely.
03:30We are centrally located.
03:32So it's a short car ride to New York City.
03:35I want to say under an hour.
03:37The proximity to New York City is phenomenal.
03:40Absolutely.
03:40You can really have a life here.

04:14She didn't want to be on camera.
04:16For our new millionaires, I'm gonna start off with something big and fabulous.
04:21This neighborhood is exactly what I was picturing when they were telling me their wishlist.
04:28Big house.
04:29Lot of space.
04:31Sassafras Circle is an incredible house.
04:33It feels very expensive and bougie because it is.
04:37I love this.
04:38These houses are nice.
04:39These houses are pretty.
04:40Sassafras Circle.
04:41Four bedrooms.
04:42Four bathrooms.
04:43Ready for this?
04:44Over 5,100 square feet.
04:47Oh my goodness.
04:48That's great.
04:48It's on an acre and the price is absolutely fantastic at $875.
04:52Okay.
04:53I know.
04:53Look how cute this is.
04:55This is so cute.
04:56So the house was built in 2006.
04:58Okay.
04:58So it's 20 years old.
05:00It's not bad.
05:01No.
05:01Not bad at all.
05:02Still fairly newish.
05:04Come on in.
05:05Oh my goodness.
05:05Look at this entrance.
05:06I know, right?
05:08This is so pretty.
05:10So pretty.
05:11This is what I'm talking about.
05:12Right?
05:13You're so ridiculous.
05:15The magical moments that you can have with your kids here is just fantastic.
05:19I can't even believe I'm like standing here.
05:20All right.
05:21So we have a lot of house to look at.
05:22So we're going to go through pretty quick.
05:25Now the little sitting area here.
05:27Okay.
05:28They have it set up as a TV area.
05:29Okay.
05:30Good.
05:30Do you have a dining room right now in your house?
05:33No.
05:33We just eat at the island or on the couch.
05:35On the couch.
05:36Would you guys ever use the dining room?
05:37Oh yeah.
05:38Probably for decor.
05:39Okay.
05:39All right.
05:40I know you use the kitchen.
05:42Well, probably not me because I only make enough food to survive.
05:45But Stephen can cook.
05:47Nice big space.
05:47This is a really big kitchen.
05:48It's huge.
05:49Very different than our kitchen now.
05:50What's your kitchen look like now?
05:52Like.
05:52We have an island, but like it's all connected.
05:54Yeah.
05:54It's like not.
05:55So that's a peninsula.
05:56Okay.
05:56I got a peninsula.
05:57Uh-huh.
05:58Yeah.
05:58Look at that.
05:59All right.
06:00So eat in kitchen.
06:01Will you utilize this?
06:03We'll try to.
06:04We'll have to come up with like new rules.
06:06Yeah.
06:06Yeah.
06:07Kids love boundaries.
06:08Not mine.
06:10All right.
06:11So this is an extra space.
06:13It's great for parents or a study, a library, for the kids to do their homework in here.
06:20Like their game room or something.
06:21Or their game.
06:21Wow.
06:22Yeah.
06:22Went from homework to gaming.
06:24Yeah.
06:25Well, that's our kid.
06:26Love it.
06:27Well, you can make them do it.
06:28You are the parents.
06:29Yeah.
06:29I could lose some weight walking up these stairs.
06:31Oh my goodness.
06:33Damn.
06:34Look at this main bedroom, you guys.
06:37Oh my goodness.
06:38It's humongous.
06:40There's a room over there and we have a bathroom.
06:43Okay.
06:44It's a nice size bathroom.
06:45It's not a big bathroom.
06:57It's not a big bathroom.
07:00But I can't go in when she's in the bathroom.
07:01No, of course not.
07:02No.
07:02It's called respect.
07:03Yeah.
07:04Where's my respect?
07:07For the kids, there's a shared bathroom in between two guest bedrooms.
07:12And another bedroom with its own ensuite, perfect for their daughter.
07:16And for fun indoor activities, there's plenty more square footage in the basement.
07:21Oh my goodness.
07:22Look at this.
07:23I have like a whole game room down here.
07:25Pool table.
07:26We love watching movies.
07:26Movie theater.
07:28Yes.
07:28You're feeling it.
07:30I don't have to teach you how to be millionaires at all.
07:32But are you basketball players?
07:34I mean...
07:35Who's more competitive?
07:36Probably him.
07:38Yes.
07:39Oh, look at me go.
07:40Oh, she's kicking you.
07:46Good job, guys.
07:47All right, let's go inside.
07:49Ah, look at this.
07:51Look at the pool.
07:53Look at the yard.
07:54Oh my goodness.
07:54I know.
07:54A nice big yard.
07:55It's gigantic.
07:57We never talked about a pool.
07:59We would absolutely love a pool.
08:01Right?
08:01I don't know how to take care of a pool.
08:03But that's what pool boys are for, or pool girls.
08:06Like we can actually put like a swing set or something.
08:08Play out here.
08:09Broken leg, I don't know.
08:10I did a trampoline.
08:11I broke my leg.
08:12It's just part of the life.
08:13Yeah.
08:14Tomorrow.
08:15Give me a vibe.
08:17Maybe a little less cookie cutter and more, you know, some character.
08:22Character.
08:22Got you.
08:22Okay, I have the perfect house for you.
08:23Tons of character.
08:25It's gonna be very hard to say no to.
08:27Yeah?
08:27Yeah.
08:28Just like me.
08:41I could not resist showing this very special property.
08:46It's the oldest property that we've ever seen on this show.
08:51Trillium Trail.
08:52It's almost 200 years old.
08:55There's a lot of different iterations.
08:58This used to be a bed and breakfast.
09:00This used to even be a post office at one point.
09:02And the house isn't just unique, but the property is really special.
09:06There's a fishery right behind me, which was active until 2010.
09:11It's just special.
09:12Wow.
09:12This is so cute.
09:14You like it?
09:14I love it.
09:15Stop.
09:16No.
09:16It's like a dream.
09:17How old do you think this house is?
09:19You can't.
09:201950s?
09:231830.
09:24Oh, my God.
09:25It's older than you.
09:27It's almost.
09:27It's probably something.
09:28All right.
09:29Trillium Trail.
09:29Five bedrooms.
09:30Four or five bathrooms.
09:31I can't keep track.
09:3215 and a half acres.
09:3415 and a half acres.
09:35Oh, my God.
09:36It's got a little over 3,800 square feet.
09:38And the price is fabulous.
09:39850.
09:41850.
09:43Come on in.
09:44Oh, my goodness.
09:45Oh, look at this.
09:46Isn't this great?
09:47I love the wood floors.
09:48The wood floors are great, and they are throughout.
09:51All the wood that was here to build the house, plus the floors,
09:55it all came from the land that this house sat on.
09:57That is actually really cool.
09:58I like that.
09:59We have a lot to explore.
10:00Okay.
10:01Lots of corners.
10:01Take a look, see, get into it.
10:03Very farmhouse-y.
10:05Yeah.
10:05I like it.
10:06Bread box.
10:07This looks like an original bread box.
10:08It does, doesn't it?
10:09That's awesome.
10:11Is this big enough for you?
10:12It is definitely big enough for us.
10:15Okay.
10:15And we're coming in $150,000 under your top budget,
10:19so you have a lot of money to play with.
10:21We have a lot to look at.
10:23Cute little dining room area, which I think is absolutely precious.
10:28Okay, that's nice right off the kitchen.
10:30And I like the, like, skylight.
10:31So do you see, like, the mountain right there?
10:33Yeah.
10:34Literally built into the mountain.
10:36Into the mountain.
10:36And they did that to keep it cool in the summers.
10:39That's nice.
10:39It's genius.
10:40It's genius, yeah.
10:41I like the chalkboard.
10:42You know, I could have, like, dad teaching lessons in here.
10:45I don't know.
10:45Do you do that?
10:46No.
10:46Yeah.
10:46Would you do that?
10:47All the time.
10:48You know how hard I have to work to counteract his teaching?
10:51I work hard.
10:52I do.
10:54All right.
10:54Lots of nooks.
10:55Lots of crannies.
10:56Okay.
10:57Little hidden spaces everywhere.
10:59Right?
10:59Isn't this neat?
10:59That's awesome.
11:00Look at that.
11:01This used to be the old post office.
11:03Isn't that crazy?
11:04Yeah.
11:04That giant Christmas tree right here.
11:06And I like the fireplace.
11:07First fireplace.
11:08One of many.
11:09This is a part of a suite.
11:11There's a bedroom over there.
11:12So this would be, could be, your bedroom.
11:14Okay.
11:14But there is four bedrooms upstairs.
11:19Each of the upstairs bedrooms have been renovated with their own bathroom.
11:24While keeping the character of the original farmhouse.
11:28Oh my goodness.
11:29Look at this.
11:30I love this.
11:31It is fun.
11:32The main suite has a large walk-in closet and its own en suite.
11:37Yeah.
11:37This is awesome.
11:38And nice ceiling.
11:40This is really high ceilings for, like, the bathroom.
11:42Yeah.
11:43The whole upstairs is nine foot.
11:44All right.
11:45That's such a good detail.
11:46All right.
11:46This is our cute little fun hidden moment.
11:49Oh, this is where it is.
11:51Isn't this adorable?
11:51I love this.
11:53We could put, like, a slide coming out of there.
11:55Spiral slide going on.
11:56Into a ball pit.
11:57That would be awesome.
11:58I love this.
11:58I love that.
11:59Want to go outside?
12:00Yeah.
12:01Yeah.
12:01Let's go see that fishery.
12:06Isn't this cute?
12:07This is so cute.
12:09The fishery was built in the late 1800s and operational until just 2010.
12:14They raised fish there.
12:15What kind of fish?
12:16Trout.
12:17All the trouts.
12:18Okay.
12:19Do you think your kids would swim in there?
12:21Probably.
12:21Would you let them?
12:22They'd have, like, races.
12:23Probably.
12:24Yeah.
12:25Yeah.
12:25Do you guys like the property?
12:27We love it.
12:27It's super unique.
12:28Really?
12:28Yeah.
12:28What era are we taking next?
12:31I think we got to go with something that's maybe brand new.
12:34Brand new.
12:34Why not?
12:35Can I show you a little surprise?
12:37A surprise?
12:38Mm-hmm.
12:38Okay.
12:39All right.
12:39Come on.
12:39Let's go.
12:45Oh, my goodness.
12:47Oh, my goodness.
12:48Oh, I need puppy kisses.
12:50Hello.
12:51Oh, my goodness.
12:52Oh, my goodness.
12:54You're so cute.
12:56Oh, mm-hmm.
12:56Okay.
12:57Look at their puppy sounds.
12:58Okay.
12:58I can't resist.
12:59Do you want to?
13:00You have to resist, too.
13:02Oh.
13:03They love us.
13:04I can't.
13:04I can't.
13:05I'm going to start to cry.
13:14We're looking at million-dollar homes or up to a million-dollar homes.
13:17And you know what?
13:18It's really hard to go over a million here in the Lehigh Valley because you get a lot for your
13:23money.
13:23It's a great place to come in and move and have a really great family.
13:28Paw Paw Place is absolutely gorgeous.
13:32Do you see how far apart these houses are?
13:34Yeah.
13:34Each lot is an acre or more.
13:36So that's the house right there.
13:37This one.
13:39Paw Paw Place.
13:40Five bedrooms, five bathrooms.
13:42Just a little over 3,300 square feet.
13:44You ready?
13:45Yeah.
13:45Yeah.
13:47That's on an acre.
13:48Yeah?
13:49So this is a model home.
13:50This one, if you were to buy this, would be $1.1.
13:53The base price for this starts at $9.24.
13:56This looks good.
13:56Kids could ride dirt bikes and stuff.
13:58Oh my gosh, yes.
13:59Looks good.
13:59Come on in.
14:00Experience the new.
14:01Oh my goodness.
14:03I love it.
14:03Look up there.
14:04There's a catwalk.
14:05This is so pretty.
14:05I love that you pointed out the catwalk.
14:07Yeah.
14:07I love that you just walk in and you can like see everything.
14:10See everything, right?
14:11Yeah.
14:11Separate dining room.
14:12Still access to the kitchen.
14:14Okay.
14:15Sitting area, which you can turn into anything.
14:17Okay.
14:17It's just more money.
14:18And you got what?
14:19Plenty of it.
14:21All right.
14:22Let's walk into the living space.
14:25I mean, look at this vaulted ceilings.
14:27Like, vaulted ceilings plus catwalk, they haven't done this in forever.
14:31No?
14:31And I love that they're bringing it back because it's drama.
14:34It's still warm and yummy.
14:36Your kids are going to love this.
14:38Yeah.
14:38Like coming from their bedroom going, is breakfast ready, dad?
14:42Literally.
14:44All right.
14:45Eat in kitchen.
14:46Coffee bar.
14:48Okay.
14:48And a beautiful kitchen.
14:50I mean, look at this.
14:51It is so pretty.
14:51I love it.
14:52It's huge.
14:52Now this is your domain, Steven.
14:54I love the sink.
14:55I like this too.
14:56How it's sunken in from the countertops.
14:57Very nice.
14:58And it has like a microwave down here.
14:59Double oven.
15:00Stainless.
15:00I like the stainless.
15:02And again, if you want different finishes.
15:03Like, this is just suggestions.
15:06All right.
15:07The stairs of cuteness.
15:10Now stairs, you could do many different ways.
15:11You could do carpet.
15:12You could do tile.
15:13You could do whatever you want.
15:15Okay.
15:15All right.
15:16Laundry.
15:17I love that it's upstairs.
15:18Love, right?
15:21Bedrooms.
15:21Okay.

15:23Oh my goodness.
15:24Nice size bedroom.
15:26With a bathroom.
15:27And it has a shared bathroom.
15:28Take a look.
15:29Double sinks.
15:30Double sinks.
15:31Which we love.
15:32Very nice.
15:33I like the countertops in here.
15:33Yeah.
15:34A little bit different of a color palette.
15:36More boy.
15:37Okay.
15:38A nice size room.
15:39Your bedroom is right through there.
15:41Walk the catwalk.
15:42Come on.
15:43Oh, look at this.
15:44Yes, queen.
15:45This is so nice.
15:47All right.
15:48Oh.
15:48Mm.
15:49Mm.
15:51Yes.
15:52Yes.
15:52The sassiness is everywhere.
15:54I love this room.
15:55This room is good.
15:56This is huge.
15:56This room is our biggest main bedroom.
15:58Get into the bathroom.
16:01Spectacular.
16:01Oh my goodness.
16:02I love the double doors.
16:03It's nicely done.
16:04Yeah.
16:05Huge shower too.
16:06That's good fit in there.
16:06And it has a bench.
16:07Do you guys take showers together?
16:08Yeah.
16:09So everyone always says no.
16:11No.
16:12And you guys say yes.
16:13Yeah.
16:14Right?
16:14Let's go downstairs and see where these kids are going to call home.
16:17Okay.
16:18Here we go.
16:21Great downstairs.
16:22Great basement.
16:23Great space.
16:24Okay.
16:24I love that it's done already.
16:26Yeah.
16:26You don't have to do any work for this.
16:27And it's a walkout too.
16:29Right?
16:29So this is where the 1.1 comes in.
16:32Okay.
16:32So if this didn't have this, this would be like a 950 house.
16:35But you would want this done, right?
16:37We could go a little over.
16:38I like you.
16:40Okay.
16:41All right.
16:42How nice is this?
16:44This is so nice.
16:45I love the walkout.
16:46The walkout's really good.
16:47And we could put a patio or something right here?
16:50Yeah.
16:50Or extend the current patio.
16:52No.
16:53I love it.
16:54Love it.
16:55It's so good, right?
16:55You gave us all the options.
16:57Good.
16:58One of these your dream home?
16:59I think so.
17:00Yes.
17:01All right.
17:01Shall we walk?
17:02Yeah.
17:03Let's look at the property, shall we?
17:05We shall.
17:14Life changing moment.
17:15Yay.
17:17Very exciting.
17:18So excited.
17:21So we really haven't talked about like splurges.
17:24Like $7 million.
17:26Like, you know.
17:26We got a golf cart.
17:28And a four wheeler.
17:29Oh my goodness.
17:30And convenience.
17:31And convenience.
17:32Yes.
17:33And freedom.
17:34About $7 million will do that.
17:36You guys slid into the millionaire vibes really easy.
17:39I didn't even have to convince you.
17:41I'm excited to hear what you guys think of these houses.
17:43Should we talk about them?
17:44Do you want to?
17:45Yeah.
17:46Sassafras Circle.
17:47Love the size of Sassafras Circle.
17:49The rooms were very spacious.
17:51You could see everything from like the kitchen to the living room.
17:55The house just felt so cozy and stuff.
17:57Yeah.
17:57We loved the backyard.
17:58How it was fenced in already.
18:00So good.
18:00Yeah.
18:00And it had the pool.
18:02Great house.
18:03I knew you loved it.
18:04But you wanted to see something with character.
18:06So I took you to 1830's farmhouse.
18:08Trillium Trail.
18:09That was really a cool house.
18:11Like it had so much weird like random stuff.
18:15I mean a fishery.
18:17For crying out loud.
18:18An old post office.
18:20So much history there.
18:21On 15 and a half acres.
18:23Yeah.
18:23Yep.
18:24And after looking at that incredible house.
18:26The request was seeing something brand new.
18:28And I love showing a model home.
18:31A pop, pop place.
18:32Yes.
18:33It was gorgeous.
18:35We loved when you walked in.
18:36You could look up and just see the catwalk.
18:38You could imagine what you, whatever you wanted to do.
18:42You could do to it.
18:42So I love that the basement was done.
18:44You get to customize this.
18:46Like it's really special.
18:47Yep.
18:48Alright, here we are.
18:50Here we are.
18:50Decision time.
18:51It was really hard.
18:52So where are we going?
18:54We are going to go with.
19:08Alright, here we are.
19:10Let's make a decision.
19:13Sassafras.
19:15That dump.
19:16Okay.
19:18It cost me my life savings.
19:19No, I'm just kidding.
19:20I'm just kidding.
19:21I'm just kidding.
19:23I love that house for you guys.
19:25That house?
19:25I really do.
19:26It literally just had everything that we wanted.
19:29Like the backyard was perfect.
19:32It already had the pool.
19:33And it's under budget.
19:35It's under budget.
19:35So we can update.
19:36Are you excited?
19:37So excited.
19:38What's the first thing you're going to do to the house?
19:40Put furniture in it, I guess.
19:41There you go.
19:42You know, that is a good goal.
19:54We decided to pick Sassafras Circle.
19:57We were able to buy it for $8.75.
19:59That was the asking price.
20:04And we moved in about 45 days ago.
20:07Isn't it crazy that, like, we all moved in this place?
20:12It's just so big.
20:13Today we've got some family members coming over.
20:18We're doing like a little get-together housewarming type thing.
20:23Oh, you got a swimming pool.
20:25Yeah.
20:26Wow.
20:26Can I come over and go swimming?
20:27So the sellers were agreeable to letting us buy some of the furniture.
20:32But we still have to put our touch on it.
20:34We're still kind of trying to make it our home.
20:37It's a big house, so.
20:38Yeah.
20:38We need a lot of furniture.
20:39Hi, buddy.
20:41Hey.
20:41Kids stuff everywhere.
20:43The kids took over the house.
20:47Especially Araya.
20:48She has a whole playroom to herself.
20:51Rayway's got a playroom.
20:53The lottery has completely, like, turned our life upside down.
20:57Get down in a good way.
20:58Uh, a lot less stress.
21:00And, I guess, a lot more space.
21:03Araya!
21:05I'm happy that we got this new house.
21:07We have a lot of friends here.
21:10I like coming outside a lot.
21:12I can't wait to jump in the pool.
21:16Thanks, David, for making my parents live their best life.
21:20Yeah.
21:21Thank you, David.
21:24That was adorable.
21:25Wonderful.
21:26I'm so.
21:26Wow.
21:27Wow.
21:27Awesome.
21:28Yeah, we have to...
21:29You
