Sometimes when you own a home you can find yourself in an ugly situation where you need to sell it fast and move on with your life. In the first spot for HomeVestors®, we see a family living in a home with obvious foundation problems – everything is tilted. They are in their kitchen having dessert. The husband asks his wife to pass the pudding. When she sets the dish in front of him it slides off the table. The voice over says, “When things get ugly call the We Buy Ugly Houses People.” The spot is resolved with a HomeVestors® employee showing the couple how he can help them by buying their house. The second spot involves an errant husband.
Kiran, of The Cavalry Productions, directed these comedic spots (part of a 3-spot campaign) for the HomeVestors brand at webuyuglyhouses.com
