This technology also enables Holmes and his team to identify any issues before they arise, minimizing the risk of unexpected costs and delays. Another notable aspect of the show is the emphasis on community involvement. Holmes and his team frequently work with local contractors and suppliers, and aim to source materials and labor from within the community whenever possible. This not only supports local business owners, but also helps to reduce the carbon footprint of each renovation. Overall, Holmes: Buy It Right is a compelling and informative show that provides invaluable guidance to first-time home buyers.
