A first-time property investor takes on a garden-level flat in London's Crystal Palace, Dion meets a lorry driver who is renovating a mid-terrace house in Stoke-on-Trent, and in Strood in Kent, a navy reservist transforms a three-storey townhouse into a stylish holiday let. All three properties were sold at auction, and all threw up a few trials and tribulations for their new owners.

Martin catches up on a redevelopment of a £1 million-plus house in Fulham, while Dion talks to developers who have big plans for their buys in St Helens and Stoke.
