See Episode GuideFire Sale Flip
Tarek and Christina are contacted by a homeowner in Costa Mesa, California on a great deal for a 1960's single story home. A good deal in a great neighborhood is exactly what Tarek and Christina look for. Once they start working on the home they immediately run into big ticket issues. Will they be able to handle these big issues or will they watch as their profits burn up in this fire sale flip.
Flipping and Dating
Tarek gets a lead on a house in Diamond Bar, CA, and asks Christina to meet him to view the property. Tarek rushes off for a date, however, and Christina relentlessly pokes fun at him. The underlying tension leads to a blowout, which could get in the way of finishing the flip and making a profit.
Bursting at the Seams
Tarek and Christina are out of town when they get a lead on a house in La Mirada, California, and are forced to buy the house sight unseen. Christina worries the house may be packed with problems, but Tarek believes big risks come with big rewards.
A Family Friendly Flip
Tarek and Christina receive a call from a longtime friend who needs some help flipping his family's house. It's a tall order for a novice flipper, but with the aid of Tarek and Christina's knowledge and experience, he may be able to get his family a higher sale price.
Fun House Flip
Tarek and Christina acquire a promising short sale in Anaheim, California, with a puzzling maze of barricaded windows and suspicious additions. They know that if they're going to flip this house, they'll have to stay on budget to turn this tricky fun house into a functional family home.
Hidden Potential
Tarek and Christina flip a house in Garden Grove, CA. They really have their work cut out for them on this one because not only is the house on a busy street but it is a mess! Have Tarek and Christina opened up a can of worms or does this flip have some hidden potential waiting to be uncovered?
Cat Nip Flip
Tarek and Christina are contacted by a realtor about an exciting new listing. So new, in fact, that the realtor doesn't even have keys yet. If Tarek and Christina want to buy this house, they'll have to do so sight unseen. The price is right and the profit potential is huge, but who knows what lurks behind that front door? Can Tarek and Christina stay on budget or will they be left clawing for profits on this cat nip flip?
Split At The Seams
Tarek gets contacted about a house on a desirable corner lot in Torrance, CA. Upon initial inspection it looks like a quick flip but then they see the house and foundation have cracks everywhere! Will Tarek and Christina be able to repair this home or will these splitting seams become a total rip off?
Pesky Flip
Tarek and Christina check out an off-market listing in Santa Ana, CA, that appears to be in good shape with strong comparable sales in the area. But profitable on paper doesn't always translate into profit on paper, and Tarek and Christina struggle to stay on budget when they encounter hidden problems and untimely mistakes.
No Risk, No Reward
Tarek and Christina get a lead on a trust sale property in Anaheim, California, with an original layout and a dated design. It's in good shape and seems like a mostly cosmetic project, but when their project manager comes back with a ballooning budget and a laundry list of contingencies, Tarek and Christina wonder if this home has more potential than pitfalls.
A Frantic Fiasco
Tarek and Christina check out a midcentury home with a dream layout in Placentia, California. But as is often the case with old homes, no project is as straightforward as it seems and Tarek and Christina must overcome their fair share of surprises and setbacks to survive this frantic fiasco.
Natural Disaster
Tarek and Christina get a lead from an investor on a house he's recently purchased in an upscale, gated neighborhood in Anaheim Hills, CA. A large, expensive flip can mean equally large profits, but it also takes time and even the littlest mistake is magnified.
Backyard Staycation
Tarek and Christina get a lead on a home in Riverside, California, with a massive backyard. It has great views and room to create a pool and outdoor living area fit for a five-star resort. The potential is there to make this the biggest backyard transformation they've ever done, but it won't come cheaply and they risk spending more than they can get back. Can Tarek and Christina create and reap the rewards of a resort-style backyard or could rising costs threaten to sink this backyard staycation dream home?
Lessons in Laguna Beach
Tarek and Christina get a lead on a house in an upscale neighborhood in Laguna Beach, CA. Even though the house is small, it has an ocean view, which means big money. Having never flipped in the area, they aren't sure what to offer for the house, so they visit another flip in the area and see that the house they want is overpriced. When they offer below asking price for the home, the seller is shocked. Will they be able to get a good deal on this beachside home or will they miss their chance to make big money in Laguna?
Ready-to-Flip Ranch
Tarek and Christina are contacted by an owner in Anaheim, California, looking to sell their three bedroom, two bathroom home. These three bedroom, two bathroom houses are quick and easy to flip, exactly what they are looking for. Upon inspection the house looks good, but there is only one hiccup in their plan -- the second bathroom is only a half bathroom and it doesn't meet code. Will they be able to make this bathroom functional and keep the value of the home or will they have to lose a bathroom and some profit along with it?
Abandoned Flip
Tarek and Christina find a promising short-sale property in Long Beach, California, but find the massive renovations the previous owners began are only partly finished. With the house in various states of disrepair, Tarek and Christina are excited to have a clean slate for design but cautious about the problems that could be lurking in a homeowner's do-it-yourself renovation.
Cracked Flip
Tarek and Christina come across a listing for a newer home in Yorba Linda, California that has great potential but has seen better days. The owner is motivated to sell quickly which could yield an enticing deal; but it also means Tarek and Christina won't have much time to inspect if they want to wrap up this investment property. The home is newer and will require mostly cosmetic fixes, but a series of cracks inside and outside have piqued Tarek and Christina's interest. Can they handle the problems hidden throughout this house or will they crack up before they can finish this cracked flip?
Toxic Flip
Tarek and Christina get a lead on a small house that's aggressively priced and could be a lucrative deal based on comparable sales in the neighborhood. They go to inspect the house before making a decision and find it boarded up and in rough shape. Despite its condition, the numbers are promising and they've done well in this area before. They decide to take the calculated risk and buy the home, its interior still sight unseen. Can Tarek and Christina keep this project under control to see risk through to reward or could hidden troubles turn this house into a toxic flip?
Big Money Flip
Tarek and Christina are contacted by an out-of-state seller looking to sell an old family home. It's a large house in original condition, but it's also more expensive than their usual projects and the renovation could get pricey on this midcentury modern time capsule.
Diamond in the Rough
Tarek and Christina spot a listing for a small home in the desirable neighborhood of Costa Mesa, California. The home is in rough shape and will surely require a lot of work to renovate, but they hope to transform this house from the worst on the block to the showpiece by the beach.
Hot Market, Fast Flip
Tarek and Christina get a smoking deal on a house in an up-and-coming neighborhood of Garden Grove, CA. With not too much work to be done, this house should be quick flip for them. Can they keep this flip on schedule or will unpredictable problems douse this hot market flip?
Narrow Margin Flip
Tarek and Christina are contacted by their friend and fellow investor, Pete. He's already purchased a home in Anaheim, California and wants to bring Tarek and Christina in on what should be a quick flip for a modest profit. But as renovation begins, Pete's budget estimate goes out the window and this is starting to look less and less like a good buy. Can the trio save their investment on this narrow margin flip?
Fast Money Flip
Tarek and Christina check out a home with a tight profit margin in Whittier, California. The house is in good shape though, and it shouldn't take much time or money to transform this property. It's a risk, but as long as they stick to the schedule and budget they could turn a quick profit and move on to their next flip. Will it finally be smooth sailing on this project or will setbacks threaten Tarek and Christina's fast money flip?
Lessons in Laguna Beach
Tarek and Christina get a lead on a house in an upscale neighborhood in Laguna Beach, CA. Even though the house is small, it has an ocean view, which means big money. Having never flipped in the area, they aren't sure what to offer for the house, so they visit another flip in the area and see that the house they want is overpriced. When they offer below asking price for the home, the seller is shocked. Will they be able to get a good deal on this beachside home or will they miss their chance to make big money in Laguna?

Tarek and Christina are contacted by an owner in Anaheim, California, looking to sell their three bedroom, two bathroom home. These three bedroom, two bathroom houses are quick and easy to flip, exactly what they are looking for. Upon inspection the house looks good, but there is only one hiccup in their plan -- the second bathroom is only a half bathroom and it doesn't meet code. Will they be able to make this bathroom functional and keep the value of the home or will they have to lose a bathroom and some profit along with it?
Hillside Horror
Tarek and Christina get a lead on a property in the upscale neighborhood of Palos Verdes, California. The house may be small but because of the area, it could sell for over $1 million. Can Tarek and Christina turn this hillside horror into a high-class home, or are they in over their heads in this beachside community?
