A post shared by Tarek El Moussa (@therealtarekelmoussa)


 

The HGTV star wrote, "Did you know you can buy a house for $90,000, spend $13,000 to fix it up, then get ALL your money back plus a check for $35,000.00? đź‘€"

He added, "If you didn’t….watch this video! The reason people don’t make more money is because they don’t know how to and they don’t teach you how in school because they don’t know how to either...but I do!! Let me teach you!" 

The internet flocked to his post and gave him a piece of its mind.

One user wrote, "Where t* are you gonna do those renovations for 13K don’t believe everything you see just the material alone for that kitchen and bath was 13K."

Another user commented, "Okay Terek… stop bullshitting the world saying you did this entire Reno for $13K anyone with 2 brain cells knows thats extremely unrealistic." 

One user stated "This is very out of touch…." and another one remarked, "No way the remodel was 13K. Just cleaning that place was at least 5K. You're lying to sell your courses." 

One user was surprised, "13k man???? Yeah right!! Hard to believe that." 

Another user wrote, "You know your s***s getting old / spend more time actually helping people than posting about how perfect your life is."
