Most of us can safely say that we’ve had a horrible houseguest at one time or another—you know, that person you smile at through gritted teeth as you secretly long for the guest room to be vacated? We’re not naming names, but in this week’s episode we discuss the most offensive behaviors in a houseguest—and how you can avoid being the one whom everybody’s hoping will skedaddle sooner rather than later.

Also, did Kanye West just make his craziest home purchase yet? You’ll never believe where the superstar and his wife, Kim Kardashian West, bought their latest property—although it is Instagram-worthy.

It's one of the biggest real estate stories of the year: Barack and Michelle Obama are in the process of buying an estate on Martha's Vineyard. After years of vacationing on the island as renters, they finally found a property they'd like to make their own—and it's a bonafide fixer upper. Don't believe us? Take a look at the listing photos! The 7,000-square-foot estate has good bones, and the architecture is typical of a New England seaside estate (white coffered ceilings, expansive windows, exterior shingles, etc.). Plus, it's on 29 acres of land, so there's plenty of room to build out their compound. But the decor is begging to be overhauled. This week on "House Party," we discuss the ins and outs of the former president's palatial new pad including its location on the island (it's not close to their beloved Chilmark) and whether or not it's actually worth the $14.8M price tag.

The LaBianca house, one of the sites of the gruesome Manson Family murders, recently sold to none other than ‘Ghost Adventures’ reality TV star Zak Bagans. Is there anyone better suited to buy this notorious murder house? Probably not. Bagans is a paranormal fanatic and collector of haunted artifacts, so it makes perfect sense why he’d want to own a piece of the Manson Family history. And that’s why we had to talk about it on this week’s episode of House Party.

This week organizing guru Marie Kondo was accused of stealing her folding method by a woman who calls herself The Beverly Hills Organizer. Is her charge legitimate or ridiculous? We have opinions. Khloe Kardashian's fridge is color-coordinated and very organized, but can she (or anyone) really keep it that clean? Spoiler alert: Chip and Jo are still the most popular home design stars and the duo people would most like to hire for a home renovation. Buuuut, a bunch of random A-list celebrities with zero design experience also made the list including Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Also, we check in on the zany Detroit house that broke the internet and why it still hasn't sold. And, as always, this week's celebrity winners and losers.
