In 2020, he launched a second HGTV show, Flipping 101 with Tarek El Moussa, in which he serves as a mentor to novice house-flippers. He and Christina were married in 2009, had 2 children, and divorced in 2018, but despite their divorce, they continued working together on Flip or Flop until 2022.

Tarek mentors first-time flippers, helping them steer costly errors as they race to get a renovated property on the market.
Flipping 101 With Tarek El Moussa
HGTV renovation stars face off against one another - they have just weeks and a limited budget to renovate four identical blank-slate homes on the same block with their signature styles. The designers who add the most property value netting the highest appraisal get bragging rights and the street named in their honor.
Rock the Block
Tarek and Christina El Moussa buy distressed properties -- foreclosures, short sales and bank-owned homes -- remodel them and sell them at a profit. At least, that's the way it's supposed to work. Track the El Moussas' roller-coaster journey in each episode, beginning with a cash purchase at auction of a home -- often sight unseen -- and the fix-it-up process, to the nail-biting wait to find a buyer.
Flip or Flop
Go behind the scenes after the TV cameras stop rolling and get a glimpse of Tarek El Moussa’s personal and family life.
Tarek's Flip Side
Tarek and Christina revisit their most intense, interesting, and engaging house flips. Because there's never enough time to tell the whole story in every episode of Flip or Flop, this series is an opportunity to dig deeper into the trials and tribulations of house flipping, and to find out what actually happened behind the scenes of the renovations. We'll also follow up on houses that remained unsold at the time of production - revealing now what they ended up selling for, and if Tarek and Christina actually made or lost money.
