The Newlywed Wants a House (Spanish: El casado casa quiere) is a 1948 Mexican comedy film directed by Gilberto Martínez Solares and starring María Elena Marqués, Rafael Baledón and Malú Gatica. It was part of a scheme by RKO Pictures to remake some of their older works in Mexico. It is a remake of the 1931 film Too Many Cooks, itself based on an earlier play by Frank Craven. It was shot at the Churubusco Studios in Mexico City. The film's sets were designed by the art director Gunther Gerszo.
