In the latest episode of Desert Flippers season 3, titled "High-Risk Flip," Eric and Lindsey are faced with their biggest challenge yet as they take on a risky flip in the heart of Palm Springs.
The episode begins with Eric and Lindsey scouting out a new property to flip. The house is in a great location, but it's clear that this flip will require more work than any of their previous projects.
With the house in dire need of a complete renovation, Eric and Lindsey know that they'll need to invest a significant amount of time and money into the project. However, they're confident that their experience and expertise will help them turn a profit.
The first challenge for the duo is coming up with a renovation plan that will maximize the property's potential while staying within their budget. They consult with their contractor and come up with a plan that involves completely gutting the interior of the house and installing all new plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems.
As the renovation begins, Eric and Lindsey encounter their first major obstacle. While tearing down a wall, they discover that the house's foundation is severely damaged, making the property much riskier to flip than they initially thought.
Despite this setback, Eric and Lindsey are determined to push forward with the project. They consult with their contractor and come up with a plan to reinforce the foundation, which will add additional time and expense to the renovation.
As the renovation continues, Eric and Lindsey face several more challenges, including an unexpected issue with the roof and a problem with the house's irrigation system. However, they remain focused and determined to complete the project on time and within budget.
Throughout the episode, viewers get a glimpse into the day-to-day operations of flipping a house, including the various decisions, setbacks, and obstacles that arise along the way. They also see the teamwork and collaboration required to successfully complete a flip, from working with contractors to making strategic design choices that will appeal to buyers.
Ultimately, Eric and Lindsey are able to successfully complete the high-risk flip, showcasing their ability to overcome challenges and turn a run-down property into a beautiful and profitable home.
