Stupid question. Why host an event? I imagine this event is not free. Could they be in need of money and using their celebrity status to generate some income?
waterboy is right. What are they going to share that I might not already know?
They will tell their “success” stories and tell you how to find foreclosed properties and flip? Tell you how it’s still possible in this market?
I really like to analize the psychology of all this. If their business is doing so well, why put on some event? They have a tv show which pays them, right? They are in the business of buying homes, fixing them and selling them at a profit, right? Is that not providing sufficient income?
I think maybe they want more spotlight. I think things might be dwindling for them and the luster might be dulling.

September 4, 2009 at 9:10 AM #452872PCinSDGuestHeh, I just read that ad. JP, it says the event is free. That is pretty standard for these types of events. They’ll ask you to sign up for their crap after you’re already there and caught up in the hype.
Also from the advertisement: “You’ll also learn the key to life mastery and the 3 elements to creating lasting change”. From a couple of 30-something house flippers.
It could be a fun event just for the comic relief factor. Knowing the key to life mastery could come in handy.

September 4, 2009 at 9:18 AM #452882waterboyParticipantI’ve noticed a trend in watching all these shows lately, and its that they are not doing any profitable flips.
Trademark Properties (South Carolina) started the series by having one of the brothers open a restaurant, next episode showed them putting $5k into a listing to sell quicker, and the last few they were remodeling a town rec center.
Flipping Out (Los Angeles) Jeff has moved to the design business and project manager for clients remodels, but no personal flips
Flip This House- Armando from TX went to San Clemente to try & help someone finish a project and work with the lender. The guy from LA (forget his name) was shown fixing up a place in TX for a family member. The CT Homes guys decided to move into the PB flip and on the most recent one they decided to help a friend open a salon and also put a few dollars into repainting & fixing up a bedroom & bathroom of a place they already owned so that it would rent for more.
When is the last time any of these shows have had an episode of a profitable flip…hope the network pays them well, and I guess that is why they are having these conferences to squeeze every penny out of their recent fame.
