Speaking of occupations, though... Both the Bennetts and HGTV are adamant that everything you see on Desert Flippers is the real deal. John Feld, senior vice president of programming for HGTV and DIY Network, told Palm Springs Life, "We follow their real business," adding, "So even though we are aware ahead of time which houses will be featured, we don't interfere in the process."
In fact, everything Eric and Lindsey do on camera is exactly what they would be doing off camera. Eric told The Desert Sun, "What's important to note is we're going to be flipping houses regardless of whether or not there's a TV show." The fact that the couple just happens to be exactly what HGTV audiences are looking for — an attractive, goofy, loving, and knowledgable pair with a great eye for home potential — is a marketable bonus. But for all intents and purposes, HGTV is just there to document the process.
