'American Dream Home': Oahu, Hawaii
Fox Business host Cheryl Casone joins Howie and Theresa on their quest to find a home in Haleiwa, Hawaii.
Howie and Theresa were such a fun couple to profile on "American Dream Home."
They have a wonderful backstory. They met at a conference and lived thousands of miles apart — but true love made sure that miles didn’t matter!
Colorado and Hawaii finally merged and their dream was Hawaii.

Now, after years of building their business and family, they work side-by-side as a team.
Watching them do this reminded me of my parents.

Howie and Theresa's story of losing their home in Colorado brought me to tears. All of Howie's memories were gone — but Theresa was there for him.
In addition, Theresa’s commitment to her parents was inspiring.
