"Flip That House" is an anthology series created by the Discovery Home Channel and now also airing on TLC. Each episode shows a different individual (or group of people) in the process of flipping a house. All episodes show:

# Initial cost of purchase
# Initial budget and work schedule
# "Flip Tips"
# Final estimated sell price from a professional real estate agent
# Actual budget, work schedule, and possible profit
# Some older episodes also have a "Flip Forward" section. The original flippers give an update on their professional and personal lives in the Real Estate Industry (plus how much the property actually sold for).

This show differs from many of the other "fix it up" shows in that they do not spend time on actual techniques for doing the work on the houses involved. The focus is more on the trials and tribulations of organizing the business end of things, and the processes of renovating, not the actual renovations themselves. Although this show gives the show a decidedly different flavor from other renovation or flip shows, and could be informative for someone looking to get into the business of flipping properties; many real estate investors do not recommend novice investors to model after the show because in the field of real estate investing, do-it-yourself strategy and over renovating are two reasons most investors fail.

The third season of "Flip That House" premiered on July 7, 2007 on TLC. These episodes now feature what happened to the house after the "flippers" flipped the house. Most "flippers" end up moving into the house, or leasing it due to the declining house market.Fact|date=June 2008
