ADDITIONAL RULES AND INFORMATION
Trading Spaces supplies the budget.
The show is taped over the course of four days, which may or may not be over the course of a weekend.
You will be contacted if you have been selected to move on to the next stage in the screening process.  We will be making phone calls to set up appointments for phone interviews with each participating team. Unfortunately, we cannot correspond with everyone.  There are too many of you!  If you do not receive a call, you have not been selected.

The selection will then be narrowed down even further after the phone interviews and homeowner teams still in the running may be scheduled for a visit from our location scouts.


HAVE FUN AND PLEASE FILL OUT THE APPLICATION BELOW COMPLETELY!!
