Love It or List It Hosts Instantly Butt Heads After Hilary Farr’s Exit in First Look at New Season (Exclusive)

PEOPLE got a sneak peek of the HGTV series’ new host, Page Turner, as she prepares to compete against longtime star David Visentin

Love It or List It fans, get ready for a fresh dynamic between new co-hosts Page Turner and David Visentin — with a little playful banter that viewers know and love! 

After longtime co-host Hilary Farr announced she was leaving the HGTV show in 2023 after 19 seasons, PEOPLE exclusively revealed in February that Turner would be taking the design reins in the upcoming 20th season. 

Now, PEOPLE can exclusively share a sneak peek of Turner and Visentin’s relationship as they adjust to co-hosting and competing — and it may look a little familiar to devoted fans. 

In the clip above, Visentin is seen driving his car before stopping to pick up his new co-host. After Turner gets in the car, the pair exchange greetings followed by the show’s longtime real estate agent saying, “So, the journey begins.”

Turner responds, “The journey begins. David, I’m so excited and you know, I think we’re going to learn a lot about each other on this journey.”

The pair trade quips about whether Visentin is going to have to pick up his co-star every day.

Turner warns him, “Well, I’m here and that is different.” 

When Visentin agrees with Turner that it is different with her on the show now, he warns her that she shouldn’t expect him to “make it easy” for her just because she’s the newcomer.

"Um David, I can say that I have hundreds of flips and renovations under my belt, and I’m not afraid to tell you that I know a thing or two about real estate,” Turner playfully fires back, to which Visentin responds: “Oh is that right? Well you’re going to need all that experience because you’re going up against me.”

Not standing down, Turner says, “I like a challenge, in fact, I love a challenge.” 

Her co-host then jokes back, ”Let’s see if you still love when they say 'list it,'” prompting the two to burst into laughter.

While this is just a glimpse of the co-hosts’ playful relationship that fans will get to know this season, they can look forward to the two still following the original format of the show.

Turner will attempt to convince fed-up homeowners to stay in their current house by giving the property a life-changing renovation. Meanwhile, Visentin will work against Turner to find move-in ready properties for the homeowners to relocate to.

Turner will certainly keep Visentin on his toes throughout the season as she has plenty of experience when it comes to stunning home renovations and a little friendly competition.

She also starred in Flip or Flop: Nashville — the Tennessee-based spin-off of Christina Haack and Tarek El Moussa’s hit house flipping show — alongside her ex DeRon Jenkins. Viewers may also recognize her from her solo series, Fix My Flip, which premiered in 2022.

Turner’s Love It or List It debut comes more than a year after longtime host Hilary Farr revealed she was leaving the series after 15 years, PEOPLE exclusively revealed in December 2023. 

“I've given it so many years of my life,” Farr told PEOPLE at the time. Referring to the series that premiered in 2008, she added, “It's got me through hard times. It's got the audiences through hard times. It has evolved into a mainstay of people's lives and it's been incredibly gratifying. But now it's time for me to move on and meet new challenges.”

The new season of Love It or List It featuring Page Turner premieres Monday, April 21 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on HGTV.
