Ep 10. In The Trenches

In The Trenches is the name of the tenth and final episode of the eighth season of the popular reality series First Time Flippers. The show revolves around couples or individuals who are looking to renovate and flip their first property. Each episode focuses on a different flipper and their journey as they navigate the ups and downs of the renovation process.

This particular episode follows the story of a couple, Adam and Brooke, who have taken on their first flip: a 1950s bungalow that they purchased for $100,000. The couple, who both work full-time jobs, are determined to make a profit on the property, but they quickly realize that they have bitten off more than they can chew.

The bungalow is in serious need of repair and the couple's budget is quickly dwindling as they try to fix structural issues such as a leaking roof, outdated plumbing, and faulty wiring. To make matters worse, the couple's contractor has gone AWOL and has left them to fend for themselves.

Despite these challenges, Adam and Brooke are determined to finish the project and make a profit. They decide to get their hands dirty and take on many of the renovation tasks themselves, including demolition, painting, and landscaping.

As the episode progresses, viewers get an inside look at the renovation process, which includes everything from installing new cabinets and countertops in the kitchen to laying new flooring and updating the bathroom. The couple also decides to add a new bedroom to the property to increase its value and appeal to potential buyers.

Throughout the episode, Adam and Brooke face a number of setbacks, including near-disastrous plumbing issues and a mold infestation. Despite these challenges, the couple is determined to persevere and finish the renovation on time and within budget.

As the final days of the renovation approach, Adam and Brooke work around the clock to put the finishing touches on the property. They hire a staging company to help them present the bungalow in the best possible light and prepare for their first open house.

Viewers get an inside look at the open house, as potential buyers tour the property and give feedback on the renovation. Will Adam and Brooke's hard work pay off? Will they be able to sell the property for a profit? Tune in to find out.

In The Trenches is an emotional rollercoaster of an episode, as viewers are taken on Adam and Brooke's journey from hopeful and excited to frustrated and overwhelmed. Despite the challenges they face, the couple's determination and resilience shine through, making for a satisfying and inspiring conclusion to the eighth season of First Time Flippers.
