Bringing real people real places and real life - home.

HGTV

Eric and Lindsey Bennett take on a property in disrepair that has been deemed a tear-down by the seller; the flippers think they can salvage the home and give it new life, but the more they uncover, the more frightening this flip becomes.

Desert Flippers

Attack of the Shack

Eric pounces on a home in a high-end neighborhood that he's had his eye on for over a year; Lindsey makes high-tech plans; the risky flip gets even riskier when they run into permitting issues and thousands of dollars worth of equipment is stolen.

High-Risk Flip

Eric and Lindsey overpay to get a foot in the door of a rundown property in a highly desirable neighborhood; this flip will be worth the high cost if they can change the home's 1970s style into a desirable mid-century design.

All a Facade

Eric and Lindsey bid on a property sight unseen and it looks like a good bet at first glance; the well-maintained home has an outdated style but no major red flags, until a crack in the floor threatens to add thousands of dollars to the budget.

Bid to Win

A three-bedroom home with a swampy pool and lack of outdoor aesthetic catches Lindsey and Eric's eye; everything goes according to plan until a rare torrential downpour in the desert threatens their renovation.

Rain Delay

Lindsey and Eric take on a challenging fire-damaged home with a low price tag and high-market risk; what looks like a few charred walls turns out to be a much larger issue that takes a chunk out of the profit when major roof repairs are required.

Hot Mess

Eric gets a hot tip about a home that's going on the market soon and locks it up at the asking price to avoid a bidding war; the house comes with plenty of risks including water damage, a drained pool, signs of termites and a funky floor plan.

Moroccan Mirage

Lindsey and Eric think they've struck gold when they come across a property to flip in a desirable neighborhood with low inventory; an easy in-and-out renovation gets messy when they run into some unexpected and costly complications.

Desert Farmhouse Flip

Lindsey and Eric find a five-bedroom home with a list price well below the area comps; although the property looks good on the outside, the interior is a mess that was left in a state of mid-renovation.

Five-Bedroom Flip

Lindsey and Eric Bennett look to turn a quick profit after finding a great deal on a house; when the cost of renovation begins to rise, the couple decide that the house needs a little something extra to interest buyers.

Just Add Water

Lindsey and Eric Bennett score a home with a strange layout but a lot of potential for profit; to turn the property into the four-bedroom that it was advertised to be, they must completely reconfigure the floor plan and update everything.

Heating Up

With low inventory in the desert, Lindsey and Eric take a risk and purchase a home that sits at the end of an airport runway; the key to the flip is blowing away buyers with a new open concept inside and massive entertaining and living space outside.
