There are nearly a million properties lying empty in the UK waiting for someone to come along to turn them into homes again. Jules Hudson reveals the great potential vacant places can offer in terms of budget and lifestyle. We follow the work of the nation's empty property officers whose job it is to get buildings sitting abandoned and neglected back into use as homes again. And we'll see how rescued wrecks have been transformed into beautiful homes again. Martin Worsley and Louise Allhusen currently rent a two-bed flat and are looking to buy their first place together somewhere within an hour's commute of London. With a budget of 600 thousand pounds, presenter Jules Hudson thinks he can show them how to really make their money go far if they were to consider an empty property in need of work.
