When Lori with Flip That House called me to see if we have
any working houses coming up to feature on TLC's reality show, as an
investor, I thought "What's in it for us?" The network doesn't pay the
investors who let the producers film the before, during, and after.
The
problem for me is that I had to get permission from my family because
ours is a family business. We all participate in the work and share the
profits. My family is camera shy, but they finally agreed.
If you don't get paid, why would you want to put yourself in front of the camera for a Flip That House show?
Answer:
FREE building materials. According to the show promoters, manufactures
and companies like to get their products on the show. However, it's up
to the investor to negotiate for all the freebies.
I'll let you know how this works. We start with the first walk-through and then the demolition next week.
