Even in a chilly real estate market, interest in flipping houses survives.

Thanks to shows like A&E’s “Flip This House,” many think flipping houses is easier than it looks and there are still seminars on how to do it.

One such session, by the company owned by one-time “Flip This House” star Armando Montelongo, was in metro Atlanta on Monday.

“I do imagine the crowds have gotten smaller,” said Karen Gibler, an associate professor of real estate at the Robinson College of Business at Georgia State University. “But the interest is still there.”

In Wednesday's newspaper, the AJC takes a look at how the house-flipping trend has changed in today's economic environment.
