Jules Hudson helps Dan and Debbie Parris find a spacious family home in Kent.

Dan and Debbie Parris want a spacious home in Kent, with an annex for visiting friends and family. Jules Hudson shows them how a house in need of work could offer a solution.

There are nearly a million properties lying empty in the UK just waiting for someone to come along to make them homes again. Jules Hudson reveals the great potential vacant places for sale can offer buyers in terms of budget and lifestyle, while the work of the nation's Empty Property Officers explores what's being done to get the thousands of houses that lie abandoned and neglected across the country back into use. And we hear from the people who've rescued wrecks and transformed them into beautiful homes again.

Dan and Debbie Parris want a spacious family home for them, their two children and dogs, along with an annex for when family and friends come to stay. They have a total budget of 300 thousand pounds and would love to find somewhere in the Kent countryside. Presenter Jules Hudson wants to show them how a vacant house in need of work could potentially offer them the perfect solution.
