Fox orders Relativity’s Home Free

US broadcast net Fox has ordered a new home renovation competition series Home Free and Electus will sell it internationally.

In the series, which will debut in late July on Fox, nine couples compete to restore a house and all live together in that house throughout the process. One pair is eliminated per week before the final two couples compete to win a dream home.
