Real estate investing is a great way to make additional income or to build an entirely new career. Although investing in real estate is indeed lucrative, it also comes with huge risks. Whether you are simply curious about real estate or a veteran in the industry, you will surely enjoy these 4 Netflix shows.
The Vanilla Ice Project
The artist behind the '90s hit song "Ice, Ice Baby" used his sizable wealth to join the real estate industry. Now, he fixes up luxurious mansions in Palm Beach, Florida and sells them off for a big profit. Each season focuses on one home with each episode highlighting a different room or area. At the end of the season, the home is listed on the market and the homes that "Vanilla Ice" renovated typically yield a $500,000 profit.
Fixer Upper
In Fixer Upper, Chip and Joanna Gaines help a client buy "the worst house in the best neighborhood" and turn it into a beautiful home. Joanna handles the design while Chip does the hard labor, and the two work within the client's budget. In each episode, the couple takes their client to view 3 homes that are often in a terrible shape. Once the client has made a decision, Chip and Joanna immediately get to work.
Genevieve's Renovation
The short, one-season show takes viewers into HGTV star Genevieve Gorder's New York City apartments. The series begins with Genevieve purchasing the apartment next door and each episode shows the renovation she does on one room or area of her new, combined apartment. There is some drama in every episode but you can gain a lot of inspiration from Genevieve's unique decorating style.
My First Place
The title of the series says it all. "My First Place" is all about first-time home buyers searching for the perfect starter home and realizing that their dream home and budget do not really align. The cameras then follow them as they continue looking for a home within the budget. Oftentimes, first-time home buyers in the show sacrifice location, size, features and other preferences which they would have wanted with their first home.
