David Visentin Love It or List It
Visentin auditioned for the co-hosting position on Love It or List It and was hired by Big Coat Productions (now Big Coat Media) as one of the hosts, competing against Farr. In the show, Visentin’s role is to persuade homeowners to sell or “list” their home, while Farr tries to renovate the home within a set budget. Visentin accomplishes this by presenting them with a variety of residences that might persuade them to leave. Both Visentin and Farr agreed in an interview with People magazine that “their good-natured bickering is what has contributed to their series’ success.”
The format of each episode of Love It or List It is the same. A couple or family shows designer Hilary Farr and real estate agent David Visentin around their existing home. Hilary redesigns aspects of the house based on the residents’ preferences and budget, as well as oversees renovations and construction. David locates real estate listings that fit the needs and budget of the homeowners in order to persuade them to sell their property and purchase a new one. As of the completion of Season 9, Hilary leads the series with 90 “Love Its” compared to 64 “List Its.”
The homeowners must decide whether to “Love It,” which means they will stay in their present home until the renovations are completed, or “List It,” which means they will purchase one of the homes David has shown them and sell their current home. The homeowners reveal their decision and explain their explanation to Hilary and David after a brief period of thought.
