Flip Men
Doug Clark and Mike Baird are head over heels about the real estate market in Utah. This unscripted series follows the entrepreneurial duo as they buy foreclosed properties in the Salt Lake City area, renovate them and then attempt to flip them for a profit. The process begins with a bidding war at housing auctions where the hosts roll the dice to acquire the foreclosures, because they often don't see the homes before bidding. And what they sometimes end up with is a dilapidated drug house or a biohazard that could mean additional fix-it costs. After a couple of weeks spent renovating and staging, the properties are put on the market.
