Ep 3. Miki vs. Malibu

Scott Disick, aka Lord Disick, is back at it again in the 3rd episode of Flip It Like Disick. This time he takes on the challenge of flipping two houses at once, a bold move even for him. In episode 3, "Miki vs. Malibu," Scott must decide which project to focus on first: a modern mansion in Malibu or a mid-century home in Beverly Hills known as Miki.

Scott Disick is joined by his expert team of interior designers, developers, and contractors; Benny Luciano, an expert developer; Miki Morita, a Japanese-born designer; and Willa Ford, a former pop singer turned interior designer. Together, the team must decide which project will provide the best return on investment and ultimately help Scott maintain his status as the king of flipping in Los Angeles.

The Malibu mansion, which is currently inhabited by Scott's friend and business associate Mark Birnbaum, is a sprawling modern estate with views of the Pacific Ocean. The house has great bones but requires major updates to bring it up to modern standards. Scott and his team must decide how to best use the space and which updated features will bring in the most potential buyers.

Meanwhile, the Miki house requires a complete renovation from top to bottom. The team must navigate a complex permitting process and work to balance the home's mid-century charm with modern updates that potential buyers will love. Miki Morita brings her unique perspective to the project, drawing on her Japanese heritage and love of mid-century design to create a stunning space.

For Scott and his team, the stakes are high as they race to complete both projects before the busy summer real estate season. But with tensions running high and unexpected hurdles along the way, can they get both projects completed on time and on budget?

Scott must weigh the pros and cons of each property, taking into consideration the market demand in the area and each home's potential return on investment. He spends time with developers, visits local real estate agents and brokers, and thoroughly inspects each property to make an informed decision.

As they work on the Malibu mansion and the Miki house simultaneously, the team faces unexpected challenges including permits delays, weather-related issues, plumbing problems, and decorative clashes. However, they work together to overcome each hurdle and keep moving forward with the projects.

The episode is full of exciting moments like project updates, unexpected design decisions, and progress on both houses. In the end, Scott must make a decision on which property to focus on first, and his choice sets the tone for the rest of the season.
