Who is Tarek El Moussa?

Tarek El Moussa is a real estate agent based in Orange County, California.

He hosts property show Flip or Flop with his ex-wife Christina Anstead, which is currently running for its ninth series.

After the financial crash in 2008, Tarek got rich quick by “flipping” homes – a term used to describe purchasing discounted properties, performing renovations and repairs and quickly reselling them for a profit.

He decided to propose the idea for a TV show, and the series took off.
