Around 2015, Bynum was inspired to flip homes in Detroit after seeing a social media post of someone traveling there and buying ten houses. He and Thomas purchased a home in the city in 2017. They filmed a pilot episode in 2019 and the rest of the first season in 2020, when Hicks-Whitfield was brought into the production. The Detroit Land Bank Authority has said it is "extremely pleased" with the work done by Bynum and Thomas.

Bynum has an MBA from Texas Tech University, and Thomas has a PhD in physics from the University of Colorado Boulder. He and Bynum also operate a store in Detroit called Nine Design + Homes. Previously, in 2011, Bynum operated a home decor company with his sister called JoniKeithCo.
