Who will you vote for in the House Rules grand final?

Voting is now open to decide the winner of House Rules Season Two.

Last night, Melbourne couple Adam and Lisa proved they are underdogs no more, taking the first spot in the top two for the series grand finale.

They’ll be competing against Perth grandparents Carole and Russell, after couple-no-longer Candy and Ryan were eliminated in a challenge to renovate a holiday home into a Barnardos Australia charity home for foster families.

Carole and Russell have borne the brunt of recent criticism over the authenticity of House Rules’ contestants’ “Aussie battler” status with the discovery of their $1.17 million canal-front home, which is currently on the market. They narrowly beat out Candy and Ryan by just one point, scoring 17 out of 20 for this challenge.

The two teams experienced plenty of distracting drama this week, with Candy and Ryan forced to redesign a room after the Western Australian team changed their minds about the design of a shared wall. Candy and Ryan failed to complete several zones of the home, following Candy’s dramatic hours-long storm off site.

Lisa and Adam received a 9/10 score from both judges, Joe Snell and Wendy Moore.

Now, Lisa and Adam are set to transform a “secret room” in Russell and Carole’s home, while the West Australian couple will travel to Melbourne to do the same at Lisa and Adam’s house.

The judges will score each room out of 10, making up 50% of the final tally for the teams. The remaining half will come from public voters, who are asked to vote for a team based on their work throughout the season at the show’s website. 

Voting opened at 11:15pm last night and will close at 4:30pm this Sunday 6 July. There is a limit of 10 online votes per person. The winning team will have their mortgage paid off.
