      I think that it would have looked better with an open trellis and painted white. That would give privacy but remain open and light. Just add plants or fake climbers and it will look much more appealing. The wood stain looks too chunky like a garden shed. However, a great job on the rest of the house and the wood does look better from a distance. Just my opinion though.

These guys might have made a few dollars or maybe they broke even, the point is they are trying to build a TV series and make CZcams as revenue. Why else would they do this?

    The house is prettier and updated but it seems like all of the storage space was sacrificed. If you knock away an entire pantry, maybe find a new place for potential buyers to put their dry groceries. Flippers always seem to completely forget about pantries and other storage essentials. It would have also been fun to watch the actual flipping process and learn what the contractors did.

    Came here after watching Flip or Flop on HGTV and I am trying to see the truth behind these. Are they really making these crazy profits? When they say we made a 40K profit do the expenses include the the materials, labor force? The labor force seems huge honestly, you got people analyzing the installation, plumming, safety of the house, the dude who went in first and checked if it’s worth purchasing, the workers who come in everyday, the designer. All these people seem like they need to get paid. What is the actual profit? Also, how much is their monthly mortgage. In Flip or Flop they indeed do a great job but it’s just so weird they always sell it so fast and for the exact price they are asking even though the other houses in the area are priced way lower. Can someone with experience shed some light on this? I know that they wouldn’t be doing this if it wasn’t profitable at all but I’m having a hard time figuring out if they are actually saying the truth, that $40K was their down profit, the one they take home, reinvest or whatever.

The comment about being fat, and the joke you made about the “coming out of the closet “ was extremely rude and ignorant ??! The shower was obviously made for a senior who was unable to stand for a long period of time ! The door on the patio was maybe closed off and the switch had a cover because someone was obviously handicapped and needed those adjustments! Hence probably why the whole house was carpeted 😒 You can flip a house and make fun videos without rude comments . Hopefully you hear people out and take the criticism given rather than take it offensive. God Bless .

    Coming from a person with just a shower i miss having a nice tub to relax in. Too bad the master bathroom didn't have one. Size constraints or budget?
