Flip That Romance: Filming Details

Flip That Romance

‘Flip that Romance’ is a romantic comedy that follows the lives of house flippers, Jules Briggs, and Lance Waddell from Bedford. Jules and Lance are old friends. No, enemies. Wait, ex-lovers? Well, it’s complicated. In an attempt to improve her branding and pursue house flipping full time, Jules lands at an auction for the left half of Holland Ave Duplex, where she bumps into her former partner/ex, Lance. Although Jules gets the house, she is in shock after she learns that Lance already owns the right half of the duplex!

To up the stakes, a presenter for Innovative Designs approaches them and offers a magazine feature for the winner. It’s not just a job anymore, it’s a Duplex Duel. A competitive Jules and a laid-back Lance try to win the competition, while also dealing with the unresolved issues from their past. Soon the arguments turn into flirting and things go smoothly until they don’t. Will the flirting make way for romance, or will the competition affect their relationship?

A Mark Jean directorial, the sweet and sour tale of love has been lauded for its chemisty and the aesthetic interior designs. In case you are wondering: “Where was Flip That Romance filmed?” We have got your back.

Flip That Romance Filming Locations

‘Flip that Romance’ is a part of Hallmark’s Spring Fever line-up. Therefore, the location scouts were looking for a site that would complement the vibe of spring. And just like several other Hallmark flicks, Canada was chosen as a backdrop for this romantic tale. The film was extensively shot in Vancouver and across British Columbia from January 17, 2019, to February 6, 2019. Here are the specific filming locations.

Sidney, British Columbia

‘Flip That Romance’ was filmed in a sea-side town, Sidney. It is a breezy town on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, which gets its name from one of the Gulf Islands, Sidney Island.

When Jules and Lance are not butting heads at the Duplex, Jules likes to spend her time with either her girlfriend Teri or her best friend Kenny, and her go-to cafe is Kat’s Cafe.
