I am located in Atlanta and have first hand knowledge of the Sam Leccima Story and the houses featured on TLC. It was a sham and a local comsumer reporter exposed them on Atlanta Fox 5 News a few weeks back. It was all a crock and the houses are sitting vacant to this day.

There is a show on TLC and also on HGTV called "Flip this house". Let me tell you, I would not buy some of these houses, and scares me to think that some folks are. Most of these "weekend warriors" know nothing of building codes, cost vs value, market demographics etc. When I buy investment property, I tend to buy from original owners, builders etc. this avoids the "home depot special" appliances, fixtures etc. installed by weekend warriors going as cheap as possible to make a million overnight.
