A Place In The Sun newcomer Craig Rowe is no stranger to finding the perfect home after maintaining his own extensive property portfolio. The Channel 4 presenter, whose first episode aired earlier this month, has touched on a possible “rivalry” amongst his co-stars.
The Bristol-born presenter has joined the likes of Laura Hamilton, Jasmine Harman, Jonnie Irwin and Scarlette Douglas just to name a few, in a bid to help house hunters find their dream property either abroad.
When quizzed about the competition, Craig admitted that is not the case with his fellow colleagues.
The Channel 4 star explained that the property experts want the house hunters to have a “happy ending” and that is their main focus for the programme.
He added that the presenters don’t receive a commission if a buyer decides to purchase a property.
When quizzed about show rivalry, he explained: “I never thought about it.
“We don’t get commission or anything. A lot of people have asked me. If my house hunters buy a property do I get commission? No, I don’t.
“All we do is show them the properties. We don’t get involved in the actual transaction of the sale.”
He continued: “So in a way, because there is no commission involved, there is no reason to have a rivalry.
“A really good show is if the house hunters find a house and it’s a happy ending. That is what everybody wants.
“I wouldn’t say there is a rivalry as such but I’m guessing all the [presenters] want a happy ending.”
Craig added: “Whenever I watch A Place In The Sun, I’m always at the edge of my seat like, ‘Are they going to buy it or are they not going to buy it?'”
Meanwhile, the newcomer recently detailed a mishap he suffered ahead of filming the Channel 4 programme.

The on-screen expert recalled a moment he had one of his shirts stolen while filming.
The incident took place while the property expert had been busy chatting with the Spanish locals.
Craig explained: “On my first shoot, I had a shirt stolen from a tree.
“I always try and have two shirts because we film over the course of three days.”
The Channel 4 presenter explained that he often has two shirts while shooting the programme – one is for when he views properties and the second is for when he chats with the house hunters about their final decision.
He continued: “I try and have two of everything, so throughout the week you can change. You often haven’t got time to do laundry and stuff.”
The Channel 4 presenter shared that he had hung his shirt upon a tree but things quickly went awry.
“I hung it on the tree while I was waiting for the camera crew to turn up,” he recalled.
“I got there early at this location and then I got chatting to some locals.”
Craig added: “People were asking what we were filming and I went back to get the shirt and it was gone.”
A Place In The Sun airs weekdays on Channel 4 at 3pm.
