Flipping a home involves purchasing an old, usually run-down property and, with a bit of elbow grease and a whole lot of hardwood floors, turning it into something that turns a profit. If this entire process sounds fascinating to you, you’ll simply flip over these two HGTV programs dedicated to flipping houses.
Rehab Addict
Pint-sized contractor Nicole Curtis packs a huge punch with the houses that she flips on HGTV's Rehab Addict. The show follows Curtis as she lovingly scoops up dilapidated homes in Detroit and Minneapolis and transforms them into something that anyone would be proud to live in. Unlike many home renovation shows that center around granite countertops and other trendy design details, Curtis aims to preserve the historic details and original character of every home she renovates. After watching her plead her case to city officials and argue with her own quirky family, you’ll be hooked on this entertaining HGTV show!
Flipping the Block
If you have a bit of a competitive streak, you’ll love HGTV’s competition program Flipping the Block. This brand new eight-part series features four teams of contractors and home renovation experts as they compete to re-do identical condos and see which one sells for the most money.
