New York [April 24, 2017] HGTV today announced that the seventh season of Flip or Flop, starring Tarek and Christina El Moussa, will feature 20 episodes - more than a traditional full season order. Five of the episodes are currently in post-production, with filming of the remaining episodes continuing through the fall. In season seven of the popular series, Tarek and Christina, who spent several years building their successful house flipping business, will continue to focus on finding, buying, renovating and flipping homes for profit in Southern California. The new season is scheduled to air in December 2017.

"Tarek and Christina's expertise and success flipping houses has made Flip or Flop an audience favorite on HGTV for many seasons," said Allison Page, General Manager, U.S. Programming and Development, HGTV, Food Network & Travel Channel. "The series is so successful because it shows how real estate and renovation savvy can lead to financial success."

HGTV cameras captured the ups and downs of Tarek and Christina's house flipping business as well as their family life. While the couple has separated, each one has turned the page to a new life that includes a continued commitment to running their house flipping business together and delivering fresh episodes of Flip or Flop.

"Tarek and I have been working together for a long time and we look forward to continuing to work together on Flip or Flop," said Christina.

"From the beginning, HGTV has shown Christina and me tremendous support and we are excited to go out there and flip many more houses for Flip or Flop," added Tarek.

Flip or Flop with Tarek and Christina El Moussa attracted more than 17 million total viewers during its last season. It also inspired an HGTV franchise that will feature house flipping experts working in Las Vegas, Atlanta, Fort Worth, Nashville and Chicago.
