Jeff, I love your personality, you remind me of a very dear friend of mine, Alden... Anyway; You already know you are excellent at what you do, I give you credit for that- but I like you because you are a good person and quck on the draw and a sharp mind. Sharp minds are not so common these days! So, you have a few different personalities, so what? They all make up one big one, YOU; Jeff. I am glad to watch you on Bravo! There are things about you that remind me of myself and most of them are good things. I tend to be a little quick tempered and impatient, but like you... I am working on it.
I look forward to seeing this show and all the challenges you are presented with.
One more thing, way to go with the beautification of the world, one home at a time.

At first I wasn't interested in the show, then I watched it and remarkably found a lot of myself in Jeff. Ironically it's comforting to find that quirks and OCD can be validated in a work profession. Thanks so much Jeff. I too hear the voices every time I walk into someone's house and I'm glad to know it's not just me. Your houses are beautiful and exquisite. Your are an inspiration.

I really enjoy the show, I watch it every time it's on. I think that you do wonderful work. After watching last nights episode, I feel that Ryan can be a little demanding and uncompromising. And I also thought the comment he made about not leaving his daughter with you for "one second" was uncalled for. Otherwise, I think that you are brillant and an inspiration. Don't change for anything and keep up the great work!

Jeff, love the show and your animals! There is a little OCD in all of us. I am glad to see that you are so positive and wish your buyers well - thats "Karma". Hope to see more pictures of the homes finished and furnished. I am remodeling my house which is 6000 square feet and planning to add more spanish features to it. Looks a little like Nottingham but in Texas. Unfortunately my builder took many short cuts and now I have to redo some of the work 4 years later. It's hard to find quality work now a days. I would love some pictures of Nottingham for ideas if possible. Will Keep watching!

Typically when you say someone "has a vision" at their work it's code-speak for "doesn't reside in reality with the rest of us," but this isn't true of Jeff. OCD and outward-facing labels aside, I think Jeff is hard-working and willing to live what he does, which is one of the things that makes the show so interesting to watch. Also the supportive friends and crew. If my apartment didn't include basic cable, I'd probably be reading books instead, but I catch this show without fail.

He & you have such a great friendship and i can tell you both still have strong feelings for each other. Do you currently have a boyfriend? If so, why dont we get to meet him on your show?

Dear Jeff when I used to walk into other peoples Houses ,empty old Homes I felt Fingerprints in my mind and Heart desires that they themselves wish that they could have completed while they lived there and I don't believe its any accident you hear voices,echoes from the Souls that came before you and that you implement all the changes that you do,I wasn't convinced this was going to be a show I'd ever watch too much confusion from those you surround yourself with during some of the opening segments,but as I watched today I saw the facets that make up this show and now feel I am hooked into Flipping Out,amazing transition for me I assure you. So Jeff I wish you well on your Journey,a Blessed Spirit and Kinder walk through Life as a Flipper of Amazing Capacity,Ryan is wonderful too by the way.As I look At Valley Oak Two it reminds me of an old Southern style Plantation all you need is a little hanging moss,hahaha .

Jeff,

You're my hero... who needs HGTV? I can watch your show and get remodeling ideas and laughs at the same time.

OCD... ADHD... are just ways to label people (I've been diagnosed with both). The unenlightened will call you "crazy", but we all know that we're on this earth to provide a little user-friendly madness (and cheap entertainment).

You are definitely doing what you should be doing in life-- don't ever doubt that. You put your heart and soul into your flips, which is unheard of in that business. Your taste is impeccable.

I look forward to seeing what you do with Valley Oak 2, as I'm really into Mid-Century Modern and Contemporary design. Despite the disappointment of watching the demo of the previous owner's renovations, I understand the need to open it up and make way for fabulousness. (flashing back and forth between the pinata and the demo was priceless, by the way!)

As mentioned by a previous poster, you might want to check into donating anything salvagable to Habitat for Humanity.

They operate a Habitat Re-Store where I live and they basically take in all of the stuff that people tear-out during renovations, salvage items, blems, overruns, etc. and sell it to the public. I'm guessing H4H would have something similar in the LA area.

Regarding the psychics--

Fiona IS the real deal. It was obvious. If she's not, then she's a damn good actress. Torie struck me as being disengenuine.

To the poster above (Mary) regarding travertine-- Jeff's right! It is so over! And the reason builders are still using it is because it is CHEAP ($2.99 sq ft).

They're capitalizing on the fact that most first-time buyers are clueless as to what's hot and what's not in building materials (and the cost of said materials).

If you get a wild-hair to post some more pics, I'd love to see some pics of the pool at Valley Oak 1. Now that you've described the concept of it, I think that may be the solution to the dilemma I'm facing of trying to put a pool on my hilly lot.

Thanks!!!

Hello Jeff,
The last show really was the break through show for me where I began to start to understand and identify with the characters. Your reliance on psychics is not very strange at all. Kings, dictators, religious leaders, first ladies, fashion consultants and many others have been relying on them for centuries. I am no expert on this area but I have read a few things that would lead me to believe you made a good choice to switch to this new psychic. From what I understand of psionics and mysticism they require a clear conscious and pure motives to make an astral connection.
To also recap on the prior episode's issue with at acupuncturist, I think Monkey responded that way because of a lack of trust of Stephen. Felines have the most keen senses of all higher functioning mammals and they know how people feel about them. That is why cats take so long to warm up to people compared to dogs.
Well, keep up the great job you are doing. I love the show.

Hey Jeff, I've been watching your show, and I do like it. I love your creativity and your ability to see the big picture.
However, two things really get to me, and I find that I have to comment on them.
1) Monkey does not like his Accupuncherist. He HATES her. Because she is hurting him. I know, because he told me so. (Believe me, I have been able to communicate with animals for YEARS, (regardless of how near or far away they are) it's one of my psi abilities.) Also, he is craving fresh, raw chicken liver. (Thought you might like to know that.)
2) You are stressing out way too much. When you stress, it causes your babies (your two cats and two dogs) to stress, which is one reason why at times they seem to be "off their feed".
One more thing, even though the show with your "Father" hasn't aired yet, kick the bum to the curb and keep him there. That man is not a Father, or a Dad. He's a parisite.
Be well.

I want to buy Nottingham - what an awesome home! Don't let Ryan take advantage of you.....you are a smart, handsome man and I hope you find someone that will share your life with you and celebrate your success! You have some crazy ass employees - all seem unmotivated and not interested in what they do but I guess it currently works for you. Think about surrounding yourself with more people that can respond to your needs and think more like you. The dynamics between you and the others make for a great show but, in the long run, you need a better, more responsive team. Keep up the good work - we look forward to your show every week!!!!

Flipping out is perfect reality television. Jeff Lewis is so fun to watch that I'm actually embarrassed to say how many times I've seen each episode. His homes are amazing and I'm thrilled that the episodes show so much of them. I worked as an assistant to a realtor who was much crazier than Jeff so I understand his mentality which makes the show even more interesting. I'm hoping this is just the beginning of many seasons of Flipping Out. Thank you, Bravo, for great programming!

I would like to suggest that you get a referral from your current massage therapist/massuese for a Reiki master. I feel this type of treatment would benefit you very greatly and relieve a heck of a lot more stress that you are currently under. Keep up the beautiful flipping you do to thee houses.

After I saw how caring he was to his animals, I changed my mind about Jeff and started to see the real person in him.
I have dogs, I know how having animals around you can change a person. If you treat animals that well, you must be a good person.
And now that I have watched many of these episods I see more how Jeff really does care about his people, and takes care of them. It takes a good team to make a great house.
Keep up the good work, and keep this show on!

Love the show.

I love your show. Do I have a story for you. But not now. Still too mad at myself and the engineering company (here in Texas) that told us they could correct our basement home - foundation. 300 hundred thousand dollars plus and almost 3 yrs later, they screwed up. Something they should have fixed and admitted it but will not fixe it.
Shame on us for not taking the contract to a lawyer.

Luv your show. Billye

Enjoying the show very much, and always look forward to seeing what will happen next. Jeff, I totally agree with your comment about Pedro and how fortunate he is to have you giving him work due to how poor todays real estate market is. Finding work in any feild related to real estate is truely difficult, I know , I am a loan doc signer in southern CA and have been struggling to keep the paychecks coming in. Your staff should be forever greatful to you for their steady paying jobs. Way to go in getting Pedro to lower his bid for installing the hardware, $3,000 was way too high! Keep on buying properties Jeff, us notaries need the work!

I am an acupuncturist in Denver and I could not breathe when I watched the vet trip with Monkey. Horrible! Has Monkey had a better experience with this same person, or someone else in the office? It's not supposed to be like that. Ever. And shouldn't
be like that again. Different person, different office, whatever. Monkey should love getting acupuncture every time!

On another note, I love that you care about reading and clearing energy with people and spaces. It is not being crazy, it is being impeccable. Other people may not feel energies with such sensitivity, but hopefully, they will reap the benefits of someone caring enough to clear the space for them.
I am impressed by the psychics on 12Listen. Finding a good one (or several!) is not always easy, and the ones I have found there are not sophomoric.
Thank you for your show. I appreciate it very much.

I can't help but laugh at the episodes because living through it at the time is not comicable but reliven it through Flippin Out makes me appreciate the humor in my past real estate situations. And I have to say that my jaw DROPPED when your agents wouldn't split the cost for the repairs on this weeks episode!!!!! My loan officer I work with call me during the show to see if I was watching this episode and we both sat in amazement that they had a problem with it. Now, I will say it is isolated instances when I have had to do it but all the more reason that I AGREE TO DO IT!! My idea is that it is teamwork working w/my clients and you do what you have to do (legally) to make the deal go through.......Keep doing what your doing because I LOVE IT!!

He is committed to his beliefs and I respect that. I am still laughing over the scene of Bowman taking Monkey to Dr. Scanlan (acupuncturist). But what is up with that doctor putting kitty (and Bowman) through all that misery! This is such a great show. I am addicted to Bravo and watch many shows, but this is my favorite by far!

We have flipped houses before and had extreme results. My husband is so good at his contracting skllls he even turned a run down church into an awesome 6 bed/2 gourmet kitchen, 4 bath home that was completed and sold in just over 3 months.. We would love to join your team. We live and work in the South Bay and would be a fantastic asset to you both in contracting, and realtor skills. ( I would have contributed all of the $10,0000 commission) you asked your present realtors for. Honestly, my husband has a great team, does awesome work, and knows how to get the work done before the deadline... He learned this by doing our own.. Please let me know if you would like to hear more about us....

Hi Jeff, I think the show is great. Try to follow as much as possible. I wasnt sure how else to contact you but I had a suggestion for you.
Have you ever thought of placing cameras (require power and internet at the site) at each work site so that rather than driving to each site and/or trying to keep track of contractors. You can view them on your CPU/Laptop anytime 24/7.
The show can also use them as well for TV
The cost of the cameras, internet and power would be saved by the savings on gas.
Take care and if you have any questions. you have my email

Not quite at the level you do them at but more in line with the market here so thank you and I am hooked for life on the show you are great.

(PLUS THEY DON'T HAVE FAMILIES AND CAN WORK ALL DAY AND NIGHT.) Also, DON'T BE MADE AT YOUR AGENTS! On a million+ home, there are costs that agents have for advertising and man hours to get your property sold. YOU ARE MAKING A PROFIT otherwise you, given your personality, would not be doing the flips. $2500.00 is nothing to be made over.

You mentioned in your show that travertine was over 8 years ago. I have been using a number of different stone materials, but what's hot right now on the mainland? I'm open to some high-end ideas and suggestions. In Hawaii we use exotic hardwoods and fossilstone (limestone) among others. Please let me know your thoughts when you have a spare moment.

Being a spiritual reader myself. drop the St. Francis at each house (uesd), is not good karma.
I am alive today, see with clarity and walk due to my angels. No sense in giving you the complete stories of my awakenings, but blessings come as they are deserved. I would like to open an exploratory on your mom's absence and your dad's need to profit from your own gains. Not easy.
There are places I can no longer go to because strangers come up to me for readings. I refuse. I think you are very close to achieving your goals with the honest insight of spiritual direction and acceptance of your past. I'm sorry you lost our mother emotionallly and physically. I am sorry you were ridiculed and felt not good enough by the age of 8. I see the front door steps of the house with a etched window. and much more...my prayers are with you to succeed.

Jeff

I've been reading the comments from the blogs, and i find that most have no understanding of what it is that you do. Few people in your line of work create the kind of "Cleansing" that you do. Your approach to a project is well, flawless. Most flippers create a bad name for themselves by doing cheap work for cheap buyers on cheap homes, and are not in for the long haul. Plenty of penny wise and dollar foolish flippers out there. Most do not resonate a spirit of a house, which you either create, or re-invent by stripping a house to its soul and rebuilding. What.. a building has soul? Yes. L.A. is lucky to have you. If you need some help, give a shout! John.
P.S. About Palm Springs...after dong several projects there, I can tell you there is no real estate group focusing on the super rich. The last thing anyone in Palm Springs needs is another 3 bedroom mid century re-do by a gay guy. There is tons of potential in the upper tiers and with famous homes owned by Hollywood elite designed by the most prolific architects of the 20th century. This should be a win, win for you.

Jeff - you do beautiful work and I love the show. You have your issues but you're good at what you do. One word of caution tho - slow down and take it easy on yourself and your staff. They all love you (it's so obvious) but if you are so mean all the time to them they'll turn on you or worse leave you. It's funny as heck to watch you 'flip out' but at the same time your stress level must be through the roof. Learn to let the little things slide. Life is short and stress will kill you - it's a medically proven fact. Be a good boss and know when to push and when not to. Poor Chris looked like he was going to cry when he told you how he felt. And let's not forget you already made Stephen cry. You seem like a great guy - just a few suggestions for a happier life :)

P.S. Poor Stewie - I have two Himmies and there's nothing quite as stressful as a sick cat. I hope he's feeling much better. Keeps those house plants far, far away. Some are lethal.

I know you don't read these comments (I presume you don't), but if you have computer issues like that again, it's probably because of:

1) One of your assistants downloaded a new browser (eg Mozilla) and forgot to import the bookmarks after the installation.

2) The browser itself did an auto-update.

If you have issues with it, there's always a System Restore in Windows that can take you back in time (literally) to a place you thought would be best.

It is refreshing to see how ethical and fair you are-I really appreciated how you handled the buyer's real estate attorney's $10,000 slap! I was wondering if your selling agents could have warned the buyer agents not to pull any stunts like that? Could your generous offer of $5,000 been avoided?
It is funny to read the comments of how others with OCD can relate to your quest for attention to detail. As many people with this gift feel very misunderstood.
Your dad is such a self-absorbed jerk, but you are so patient and mature handling him. Again, you showed me how to handle difficult communication situations often arising from pesky family members.

This is the funniest show I've seen in a long time. Jeff, I think you are a little crazy, but funny! Also, all your employees are always bitching about you, but you are totally spot on with the job performance that you expect from them. So, let them bitch! Love the pets too.

Jeff: Your show is neat. You are talented and the final results of your flipping are awesome. I like all your staff, but my very favorite is Monkey. How can anyone resist a fluffy little thing that stands up for its rights and all but kills that vet for sticking those acupuncture needles in its backside? Monkey is the best actor on your show. I love that little monster. Your dogs are sweet too. Guess you can tell I like animals better than most people.

As for the $10,000 concession: I think your Realtors were very unreasonable to not offer the $2500 contribution considering how much business and publicity you give them.

I know that I contributed much more than that on a transaction I represented the buyer in at the first of the year. My Buyer and the Seller were being very stubborn so, myself and the Listing agent decided and offer to split a contribution of $15,000 on a $3,700,000 estate before they even asked.

I love all the drama of the relationships! You have a real gift.
I see chemistry between you and Stephen-- is it a love/ hate relationship? Keep up the good work. Do you have anyone in your life other than your pets that you can let your guard down with? Find that someone so you don't burn out!

Jeff, great show with loads of wit and charm. It's a winner and I don't like reality tv but the flipping of houses with a crew of originals make it a must-see. My question: The real estate market is changing with credit drying up. The high-end market in which you work will be ok but maybe a little harder. Do you think most flipping will cease for awhile? And is there a related niche where the flippers with real talent can move into?

As a psychologist, I am sometimes interested in shows such as this if only to observe human behavior as well as to see which television programs have an influence on my patients. I have never posted a comment on a blog but I felt compelled to do so this time based upon some disturbing things I observed on this show. "Reality TV" is really a misnomer because once a camera is turned on someone, reality is no longer real. I sincerely hope this is the case, Jeff, because the camera insinuates a number of things about you that are less than flattering, not the least of which is your striking resemblance to Leona Helmsley both physically and temperamentally, and we all know what happened to her. I sincerely hope that you are in therapy; however, I fully realize that if indeed you are so narcissistic, then it is unlikely you would be able to find a therapist who could possibly know more than you. Nevertheless, if you are not in therapy, I would recommend that you try to locate a genuine and an especially honest therapist before you alienate everyone in your life except those who will only use you for their own gain or adore you because you are on television. This is already happening whether you are aware of it or not. You are clearly smart and talented, but a little charm and respect for others could make you even more successful than you already appear to be.

Hi Jeff,
Like so many here I just LOVE he show. I am from Germany and therefore I always have to download the show from iTunes to be able to watch it. I download it first thing Wednesday morning and I just keep watching the episodes over and over again. In general I love the way American houses are built but none are as perfect as yours! I think you're doing such a fantastic job at "flipping" those houses and as an employer. Your animals are so VERY cute! Hope there'll be a lot more episodes!
Greetings from Germany,

Dear Jeff,

As I Blogged your partner I have really learned a lot about home rehab from getting to watch both of you. I suggested to your partner I wish you would put out a magazine along these lines. Even involve your dad with an feature section on apartments. Look at Rachel Ray and Oprah. I think you should do a show for HGTV. Also you and your business partner could work as consultants to others. All this could give you some regular working capital to maintain your needs and leave the rest of your revenue for deal building. Write more on your blog when you have some time. They don't have to be long. Limit yourselve to one topic and 100 words. And Jeff OCP and ADD are just pop psycho babble. You possess a high IQ a gift for detail and talent for mulitasking. There's nothing wrong with you. It's just that most people don't possess those gifts or have different gifts. It's like your Gal Friday is an organizer and a counselor. Your housekeeper is your Momma figure that gives you comfort. Your two sub assistants are your younger brothers who pick up the details and agravate the heck out of you but give you that sense of family and brothers in your corner. And your business partner is your life long friend who is your Yin to your Yang. You are the big picture guy, the mover and shaker that gets the train on up the track. You have a gift for the deal. That's what you do best. Don't ever doubt your instincts about what to do how to conduct your business. You are spot on 99% of the time and you have a great head on your shoulders.

I love the show, and if anything i think that sometimes you could be more agressive. I like the fact that you have high expectations of yourself and those that you have around you. On the one episode where that realators wouldn't cough up$2500, i would have never used them again. As you said, you had made them a tremendous amount of money and have the opportunity to make more. Wouldn't it be beneficial to use some of your assistants to do some of the realator work and cut out the middle man and commisions? If you ever decide to do some work in mid michigan i would love to assist you. Hmm maybe that could be a show you could flip a trailer park. :) I'm actually in the process of trying to a change a run down bar into Bay Citys first gay friendly bar, talk about a challenge, i get called a bitch at least 3 times a week. anyhow thanks for letting me chat

Material things aren't worth their weight, however human relationships, connections we make, love we share is priicless, no measure of it's value can be taken...stratospheric. And all the minutae and drama you create to fill your day does not cover for the abject loneliness and longing for that human connection you crave. Ultinate succeess will neer be measured determined by anythiing you currently chase. And in the scheme of things, no offense, your entire existance has relatively litte meaning.

You have a very quirky group and it makes me laugh! Jeff's sense of humor is hilarious.....and his OCD just makes him human. I hope you will be coming back for a second season. BTW - we see Jeff's work side, is there a playful side to him as well? and if so is there a new man in his life? Just curious. Keep up the good work!

I just love you Jeff I have enjoyed this show all season. I can relate to being obcessive compulsive and the anxiety when things are not all in order and flowing well. I also enjoy the staff but they need to understand that attention to detail is a must and they know what pushes your buttons! I wish you well and I hope for another season of Flipping Out! Next I think you need a nice relaxing vacation to regenerate and rejuvinate. A suggestion to you is give Chris a few more compliments he does try and he shows respect to you as a friend and employer, we arent all rocker scientists :)

You are a special gift to all of us who watch. I am curious though, about what you do after work. Like, what your favorite food is, what you do for entertainment, if you have found someone special you share your off time with (since you aren't with Ryan anymore). I was really touched by how you showed appreciation for everyone who works for you. Success, Abudance, Wealth, and Increase to you, Jeff!

Not only are you a beautiful man, but you are really a beautiful man to the soul. With a show like this its hard to hide and not show the real Jeff. Anyone who works as hard as you do, is as driven as you seem to be is my ideal of a perfect man. Then you throw in the mix that you are truly a kind and caring soul, made me weak in the knees. The best of all was your love of your animals. anyone who cares that much for his animals is good to the soul. Don't worry about getting into heaven, god has a special place for someone like you. Should you ever get board living out there is that nasty earthquake laden CA....... Lol love you, love the show.

Hello Jeff. I admire your persistence, as well as your drive in following your dream. I have been wanting to do it for years, but have never seemed to have the money. Furthermore since my divorce my ex cleaned me out obviously. Do you have any suggestions for me that could aide me in starting out in this venture? I live in Arizona, and would Love to do this as you do. I know I need to start off with lower valued properties and work my way up, and I do have the drive and wont to do it. However, where would I get the funds and, what type of market range do you recommend starting out in? I am not soliciting you for money by any means. I want to do this on my own, but I sure could use some advice from someone like you who has the skills, drive, and success behind them. I really want to leave a legacy to my children, as nothing was left for me. My father was like yours. Last year I was paralyzed in the hospital from a grand mahl seizure which broke my back in four places, he drove right past the hospital I was in and did not bother stopping to see how I was doing, I never heard from him either. In fact a week before he died, I drove 200 miles to see and tell him I Loved him one more time. His wife told me to come back the next day while I was standing outside in the rain at the front door. Do you believe it? They wouldn't even come to the door. I had to talk to them on the phone. I just went home after that. Obviously, I was left with nothing, He had an 800,000 life insurance policy, and land. At any rate, you are not alone in this with your father, but look at what has happened because of it. You have turned out to be a terrific person and successful, at least im my eyes, as well as many others I am sure. If you would please find the time to respond to my email with any suggestions, I would be Eternally grateful. Regards. Tim

I wish people would understand that Jeff is a true genius and as such he has a very difficult time with people (everyone else) who does not have the laser focus that he possesses.

Consciously, the staff (including us; we are also "the staff") have a tough time with his no nonsense treatment of others but everyone is drawn to his light. People love to be in the company of a gifted one whom they instinctively know to possess the greates of life's joys: the manifestation of uninhibited creation.

Creation is Jeff's mission and his tantrums are all about being impeded on this effort. That is why the staff complains but are reluctant to part company with him.....

He is a luminary in his niche, an artist, a craftsman, an entrepreneur, a visionary, a risk taker, a larger than life rain maker and we all sense it.

I hope they bring back another season.
