i have seen the new show, no way is this real real! it seem to be actors trying to do this show, its bad! i was only able to watch 5 min of the new show. i want ginger and the guys back or i don't have a great show to watch!!!what was so bad with the old show? every one i told about the show loved it. it was real people doing real job's in real life. the new show seemed to be written, and the lines were not good. or maybe it just was the actors that were not good. what ever it is, it is not the show we have come to love. i hope this does some good in a small way because i miss the show! it's like cop's why change it! when it;s right it's right! so who ever see'e this think hard about, why let some other network get a great show like this! after all who does not like to watch real life? so please do us all the right thing, bring them all back to the show.
Richard Davis is the head of Trademark Properties in Charleston, South Carolina. He buys houses that are "fixer-uppers" and turns them into attractive homes very quickly. This type of quick buy and sell is referred to in the real estate business as "flipping a house", where the show gets its name.
The show does a nice job of showing what is often involved in buying and selling properties: inspections, getting owner to sell, permit issues, neighborhood thieves, etc. The first couple seasons of "This Old House" with Bob Villa was WGBH buying a house, fixing it up, and re-selling it while trying to make a profit. Same concept here, but the producers feel they need to add some reality show basics as well: watching co-workers skeet shoot, some kind of verbal conflict every show, but every one is happy at the end. The conference meetings are also a bit much. These are the parts of the show that look staged.
The producers were also smart to include two of Richard's female assistants in all of the episodes. Ginger is a young woman that helps with finding properties and closing the deals on purchases. She appears to be Richard's protégé. Dawn is a little older and in the middle of a pregnancy as the show starts. She is the project leader that makes sure all the construction on properties goes smoothly. A no-nonsense kind of person that is perfect as a team leader.
I hope A&E picks this up for more seasons. The show puts a "realistic" face to all the HGTV and PBS fluff that shows how to turn a closet into a beautiful home in 30 minutes. "This Old House" used to do this but not for a long time. Buying and selling a home is a big deal and there is a lot of work that goes into working on a house. I am sure that there are many more people that make Trademark Properties what it is today. Hopefully, we can see more of these folks.

I really liked this episode. Mostly cosmetic changes - paint, flooring and landscaping. The landscapers were hilarious; John's "make-over" was a little odd - not really sure why that was part of the show. Question - does anyone know: Is there a list of products they use on the show? I'm particularly interested in the hard wood flooring used in the Myrtle Beach house. It looked like real wood, was already finished, but was being glued down by the installer. And I think Ginger made a quick comment about it being laid down directly over an existing flooring in one of the rooms. It looked spectacular when fully installed. Any ideas? I think in the end, they made a profit of 500K on this home. Wow!
I was so disappointed to see that Richard and his team were no longer on this show. The gang at Trademark properties has a special chemistry that were both interesting and funny to watch. They seemed like a bunch of good 'ole boys and for me, that made them easy to relate to. They seemed like real people. I have watched a couple of the new episodes and I do not like them at all. There is no chemistry and it just seems that everyone is 'hamming it up' for the cameras.
I sure wish that the network and the producers would beg Richard Davis and the Trademark Properties team to return! I will no longer tune into this show.

I will miss your show. I loved the concept of your show. It was real and fresh. I never saw a Hollywood style scripted change coming. I thought you had it all and you had it raw. I WILL MISS YOU !!! and your crew. I will not watch the new series with a fake crew and if A&E doesn't want you remember we do and we will look forward to seeing you in a new show on a new channel. we look forward to seeing what mess your crew can get you into and what steps you will take to get out of it. And the ability to make some serious cash along the way keeps us all wishing we could have the guts to step out on that limb and jump in with both feet first and ask questions second. You are a real inspiration to all the people who have ever taken a chance on anything. OH and don't ever give up Ginger...she is HOT! and a smart piece of eye candy...uncommon in the real world. Good luck with your lawsuit and new series
