Flipping Out

Bargaining Tactics (1x4)

Air date: Aug 21, 2007

With funds running low, and work continuing on Nottingham, Jeff and the team desperately need something to sell. Offers begin to come in for Valley Oak One, but they’re under what Jeff was hoping to get for the property. Meanwhile, Jeff treats his dogs to massages, and takes Ryan and the staff out to lunch. On the job site, Jeff negotiates with his workers, trying to get the best deal, while scolding his contractor for showing up two hours late. Jeff and Ryan then head out to Long Beach to visit Jeff’s father, a real estate developer of a different sort. He and Jeff share the same drive and determination, but differ greatly on what they hope to achieve in their work. Back in Los Angeles, things take a turn for the better when an offer for Valley Oak One is close to Jeff’s asking price. They go back and forth, and five thousand dollars is all that separates him from finishing the deal. After negotiating with his agents, Boni and Carrie, the house is sold, and Jeff and Zoila prepare to move to Ben Lomond.
