The episode begins with the couple, Paula and Bill, meeting their real estate agent, Brian, on the beach to discuss their ideal property. They express their desire for a property that is spacious enough for their family but also within their budget of $400,000.

Brian takes them to their first property, a beachfront condo with one bedroom and one bathroom. The couple loves the condo's prime location and stunning ocean views but feels that it's too small for their family's needs.

The next property they visit is a vacation rental property that generates a significant income. It's a charming one-bedroom bungalow that's a short walk away from the beach. The couple is intrigued but realizes that the one-bedroom accommodation is too limiting and not what they were looking for.

Brian takes them to their third property, a spacious four-bedroom, three-bathroom beachfront house. It has all the space the couple desires, a private pool, and an ocean view from almost every room. The house also has a garage apartment that they could rent out separately for an extra income. While the property is above their budget, the couple is keen on it and begins to consider their options.

Paula and Bill view one more property, a three-story beachfront townhome with four bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms. The property has an impressive rental history and perfect for their family. They love its modern design, close proximity to the beach, and the potential income that comes with owning a rental property.
