Great House Giveaway presenter Simon O'Brien was left speechless after a wannabe property developer rendered an auction-bought house un-mortgageable. Daniel, 36, and 18-year-old Peter were tasked with getting the four-bedroom terraced property in Neath into a liveable state, but when presenter Simon made his first visit to the property since it had been bought, he was shocked at the amount of the house that had been ripped out, leaving it, in his words, un-mortgageable.
The show sees two strangers who have never owned a home buy a property at auction - and have a set budget to transform it into a liveable abode to be resold in just six months. If the pair are successful, they then get to split any profit made - if not the house goes back to auction.
This episode saw strangers Peter and Daniel paired together for the ninth episode of series three, but after seeing the condition of the property, 18-year-old Peter dropped out of the project leaving Daniel to go it alone.
