Unlike standard tubs, a luxury stainless steel tub is likely a bit harder to come by. Fortunately, another model did eventually arrive, and the Napiers were able to complete Mike Terrell's house — though not before Ben had a trial-run dip in the spa.
Commenters on Erin's post were less troubled with the theft of the hot tub and more concerned about the overall luxury of the home. The quaint house, which once belonged to beloved residents Gwen and William Burton, a couple the Napiers were familiar with, had a rather high price tag. Once it was completely outfitted with all the high-end furnishings its new owner, Mike, had chosen, fans surmised its value greatly increased. "Such a fun episode but the house prices were sticker shock for what I'm used to with this show!" commented one, while another noted, "Missing the cheap old houses that you bring back to life."
Reinvigorating Laurel for the benefit of the community has long been a passion for the Napiers. Erin once recalled to Southern Living what it was like returning to Laurel after college. "It was just us and the feral cats," she said. "For the six of us, all in our twenties, it was like a game: How can we make downtown Laurel feel alive again?" However, as one commenter put it, "I'm not sure even the cheap old house are so cheap anymore..."
