First Time Flippers is a reality TV show that premiered on DIY Network in 2013. The show follows the journey of first-time house flippers as they take on the daunting challenge of renovating and reselling a property. The cast of First Time Flippers primarily consists of amateur flippers who have little to no experience in the field of real estate or construction. Each episode features a different pair of flippers who have secured a property and are prepared to invest their own money and sweat equity into the project.

The show is hosted by Bobby Curtis, a skilled contractor with years of experience in the industry. Curtis offers guidance and advice to the flippers as they navigate the ups and downs of the renovation process. Along with Curtis, Kendra Poe and Grey Pearmine also make appearances on the show as experts in real estate and design, respectively.

The flippers featured on the show come from a diverse range of backgrounds, including young couples, best friends, and father-daughter duos. Despite their differences, all the flippers share a common goal: to turn a profit on their investment in the property.

The episodes of First Time Flippers typically begin with the flippers introducing themselves and their motivations for taking on the project. Viewers are then taken on a tour of the property, highlighting its current state and any potential issues that may arise during the renovation process.

Over the course of the episode, the flippers work tirelessly to transform the property from its outdated or dilapidated state into a modern and desirable living space. Viewers get an inside look at the renovation process, including everything from demolition and framing to painting and decorating.

Throughout the renovation, the flippers often encounter unexpected setbacks and challenges, such as discovering hidden plumbing problems or running out of funds. These obstacles create tension and drama throughout the episode, as the flippers must navigate these issues while still striving to meet their goal of turning a profit.

One unique aspect of First Time Flippers is the emphasis on DIY (do-it-yourself) projects. Rather than hiring professional contractors for every aspect of the renovation, the flippers are encouraged to take on some of the work themselves. This not only saves money but also adds a personal touch to the finished product.

At the end of each episode, the flippers showcase the finished product and reveal their final profit or loss on the project. The show offers valuable insights and lessons for viewers interested in entering the world of house flipping, highlighting the highs and lows of the process.

Overall, First Time Flippers is an engaging and educational show that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the world of house flipping. With a diverse cast of amateur flippers, expert advice from industry professionals, and plenty of drama and tension, the show is a must-watch for anyone interested in real estate or home renovation.

First Time Flippers is a series that is currently running and has 10 seasons (140 episodes). The series first aired on June 22, 2013.
