Flipping 101

Some of these people seem to use credit cards, most give up their jobs, don't look like they ever saw a flipping show in their life. Have never down physical labor. No matter how underwater they are they all make a profit at the end. I think one show at the end said the house sold then fell through but no update and was considered a success.

Just like flip or flop, you never see flops, has anyone out there tried to hire contracters to do a simple job? For instance I got bids on replacing a 4x6 foot piece of drywall no texture, the contactors wanted $800 one guy after I said your too expensive said $500 I told him to take a walk. I did it for $10. The prices quoted in these shows for work are unrealistic.

10k for a roof how many decades ago does that price sound like. Show us real costs for example for2x4s now adays. Repairing a small roof damage would have cost me at least $1000 not a couple $100

I always did like Tarek. From day one. My husband and I are not flippers, but we've done everything on our own on our three homes that we've had in our 42 year marriage. So I know a lot of stuff I really didn't want to know. So I can relate to talk when I see the look of frustration on his face when they do not follow his advice. We are very careful with our money. And I'm on pins and needles until the end of the show to see what happens to these poor people. He's a straight shooter. He's built a wonderful business through his hard work. Very admirable from my point of view and the remodeling of our houses that we've gone through.

Enjoyed the show until it became about bringing in girlfriend/fiance Heather. It is not her show, and like the wife of Drew Scott, they don't belong on camera. Tarek could do with a little more screen time with the flippers. He shouldn't disappear so much.

First and foremost, I like the show because he still at least walks through the flip process

I watch all their post divorce shows for the same reason I watched flip it flop...I like the dump to paradise transformation. However I usually skip 90% of Christina's episodes to the end, because I hate the social media drama. I only came for the flips and their inate host charm. Most if her shoe is now about boogie rich friends who throw her a bone to remodel their house so she has a show

Unfortunately, Tarek also does this social media crap. Just less. Tbh, I can't stand his plasticy nee wife who looks like a lesser carbon copy of his old wife. I only care about the flips

Why does all of hdtv no longer show real builds and tips. It's all garbage now. Every show is unrealistic makeovers that solely feed social media celebrity fetish's and hdtv magazine photo shoots. I'll keep watching if tarek keeps at least where he is at now. I can just fast forward thru all the wife and $6m house struggles.

Ps. Never loved the coverage of his kids. I came here for house stuff. But it's now obnoxious to see these kids in their spoiled flavor. And She very one on screen can't see it and things it's adorable. Not realizing the audience is laughing at them all.

Not sure I'm onboard yet. What I don't get is why people think that Tarek making a few appearances on his own show is something special. Basically, they are finding people who are already in trouble, he comes along and save the day with a few visits and a few phone calls. Each show is the exact same, giving the exact same advice. I'm not sure what people see in this show or him. He comes across as arrogant, rude and condescending in all of his shows. Oh well to each their own. Good Luck anyway.
