Now we have some of these people doing local seminars selling their systems. One just advertised about how you can get money at 12% to 18% interest, and how you can do this part time and make a fortune. The money is with people who sadly believe that they can do this and get rich. It reminds me of the tent revival preachers who would bilk the poor out of the money thinking that God would bless them.

    It is painful to hear a Seller or Buyer say, "But I saw it on HGTV!"   It makes me glad that we threw away our TV sets 10 years ago.  Who needs it?

The flips are entertainment. The gain in some of these smaller towns are not worth the trouble.

The people who are doing it here is with their own savings. If they lose that is too bad. It is never a sure thing.

I've watched many shows by "The Property Brothers", but they are not flippers.  The only show I remember watching was the husband and wife team on HGTV - "Flip or Flop" by Tarek and Christina.  I haven't actually watched much HGTV since the New Year though . . .  I don't know if they are still on, and have not heard of "Nicole and Jionni's Shore Flip" Ryan Huggins - Thousand Oaks, CA

These shows are all the same: the house is always more than they expected to pay, the rehab is always over-budget, some last minute major repair is always needed, the wife always wants high-end, the open houses gets a million qualified buyers, and the house sells in 2 weeks.

Nicole is pretty cool. She's the only one that takes discarded pieces from houses on some of her projects and creates new detailed work from the old. I like her show quite a lot.

Tarek and Christina bother me.

The Greek twins bother me

MDL really bothers me--although I did crank call one of the Joshes to see if they were real last year.

 

The wife loves this crap, so I have to sit through a lot of these. The ridiculous successes of the youngster agents on MDL tell me we are in for high-end trouble real soon...Funny all 3 shows are located in the 3 biggest bubbles in the country--LA, SF and Miami FL. I don't see any MDL........Aspen!!!
