| Abstract | "HGTV programming poses home renovation as an isolated investment, where work and aesthetic taste elevate a housing property. In fact, there is a broader world of finance and social meanings that combine in processes of gentrification to build a house's value, including history, banking, place, and culture"-- Provided by publisher. |
