Reception
An early review from David Knox of TV Tonight said the format isn't original enough and can be easily compared to House Rules or The Block.[21] An article from Yahoo! stated viewers also found it similar to House Rules, however viewers did enjoy the series.[22] Ben Pobjie from The Sydney Morning Herald wrote, "But Dream Home is a kinder and gentler enterprise than that show, emphasising dreams over property values at every turn. Here the two-person teams are actually renovating each other's houses, giving lots of opportunity for tearful "we just want to give them the home of their dreams" speeches.".[23]
