Teachers for the American military schools, Xavier and Nicole have spent nearly ten years in Sasebo, Japan. Now, they're being transferred to Kaiserslautern, Germany, and with two young sons in tow, they've decided the time is right to jump on the property ladder. Intrepid travelers, they've voyaged far and wide, but as first-time buyers the property market is unchartered territory, made all the more daunting by a new culture and a language barrier. Nicole is hoping for a fixer-upper that will allow her to make her mark, but Xavier is set on a turnkey property they can move right into. Watch as real estate agent Kryspina Muenchschwander tries to bridge the divide between these two property newbies in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
