A Place In The Sun buyer becomes too emotional to speak during house hunt

An A Place In The Sun buyer was left lost for words after entering her very first property, which ticked all her boxes. Married couple Jan and Bill flew to Costa Blanca in Southern Spain to find their ideal holiday home, with the help of Channel 4 property expert Ben Hillman.

The couple came prepared with a £75,000 budget and a list of requirements for their new home, including two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a pool, dishwasher and close proximity to a golf course.

Ben took them to a region of Santiago de la Ribera to a complex building with a large communal pool and upon viewing the property Jan was too stunned to speak. The keen buyer was completely in awe of the first home, as Ben managed to find a place that met all their needs right off the bat.

After a tour of the property, Jan was visibly emotional but managed to regain composure to speak to Ben and Bill. She said: "I can’t speak, sorry, I’m mentally putting where all the furniture is.

"I wouldn’t be doing that if I didn’t feel that this is actually perfect, I can imagine and see us enjoying time with our families. I wanted that feel good... and that's what I'm getting."

Thrilled with the response, Ben said: "I feel like I've set the standard high." Jan added: "Oh, you have young man, you have indeed. This is just the dream."

Regrouping at the end of the show, Jan and Bill decided to put a low offer in on their dream property, which was initially rejected. However after careful negotiations, the couple were soon crying tears of joy as their deal was accepted.

A Place in the Sun airs on Channel 4 every weekday from 3pm.
