Best friends, moms, and fearless flippers Kristy Etheredge and Rebecca Franchione join us to talk about their brand new A&E series The Mother Flip, premiering August 16th on A&E’s HomeMade Nation. From risky all-cash deals to turning junkyard houses into jaw-dropping showpieces, these two prove that hustle, heart, and a little bit of Hill Country grit can turn even the roughest property into real estate gold.
About the Show – The Mother Flip In The Mother Flip, best friends and fellow moms Kristy Etheredge and Rebecca Franchione—alongside contractor Roy Salinas—take on Texas Hill Country’s worst homes and flip them into stunning, high-value properties. With all-cash buys, bold renovation plans, and a fearless attitude, they turn neglected, rundown houses into sophisticated showstoppers, splitting the profits three ways.
The series kicks off with "Junkyard Gem", where a promising unlisted property in a prime Austin neighborhood turns out to be a nightmare—think junk piles, overgrown yards, and major repairs needed. But Kristy and Rebecca aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty, transforming the disaster into a luxurious, modern home that could fetch a big payday.

Today, Kristy brings that same energy into flipping homes—managing budgets, sourcing salvaged materials, and crafting beautiful, cost-effective designs. A wife and mom of two teenage athletes, Kristy thrives on big challenges and always finds efficient solutions to make visions come to life.

A published author and community-minded entrepreneur, Rebecca’s hustle is matched only by her fearless approach to design and negotiation.
