Real Estate and Home Renovation Get a Southern Twist in HGTV’s New Series ‘Flip or Flop Atlanta’

HGTV is rolling out the newest installment in its Flip or Flop franchise – Flip or Flop Atlanta. Premiering on Thursday, July 20, at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the 13-episode series follows expert flippers Ken and Anita Corsini as they transform rundown properties into charming southern homes. With Anita’s real estate and design expertise and Ken’s know-how as a licensed contractor, no project is too big for this reno-savvy duo in Atlanta, a market that Forbes magazine ranked among the top 10 for real estate investment.

“The success of HGTV’s original Flip or Flop and Flip or Flop Vegas set the stage for Flip or Flop Atlanta,” said John Feld, senior vice president of programming for HGTV, DIY Network and Great American Country. “Now we will get an inside look at the profitable real estate opportunities in this booming Southeast market.”

“Atlanta has some of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the country,” said Anita. “We take pride in making it a little more beautiful with each house we flip.”

In the premiere episode, Ken and Anita take on a bargain-priced split-level home nestled in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood. The home has the potential for major resale value, but first the couple must reimagine the dated layout, unsightly 1970s exterior and rickety deck. Costly damage must be repaired to attract potential buyers.

“I think it’s all the little details in our renovation and design that make the biggest impact,” said Ken. “Things like high-end lighting, hardware and fixtures add up in the buyer’s mind and help us get top dollar in the end.”

HGTV’s Flip or Flop phenomenon, which started with Tarek and Christina El Moussa flipping houses in Southern California, is expanding to include new duos and additional titles set in cities across the United States. Flip or Flop Atlanta joins Flip or Flop Vegas which premiered in April. Flip or Flop Fort Worth, Flip or Flop Nashville and Flip or Flop Chicago are all slated to premiere in 2018.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
