Egypt Sherrod Wikipedia
She is a television and radio personality and also a real estate broker. Sherrod hosts the show Flipping Virgins, which airs on HGTV. She was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
She used to live with her grandparents. At the age of 18, she started her career hosting a Jazz station. She got her first home when she was 24 years old. Sherrod had learned her way with the real estate jobs as she grew up with her father and uncle.
She was on the Maury show as a correspondent. Sherrod became the top radio personality on New York City’s WBLS 107.5. She interviewed Oprah, Prince, and Tyler Perry.
Her easy access to famous people gave her a real estate business clientele. She began to get tired of entertainment, sports, and gossip, and opted to leave the radio. Sherrod said that while at a radio job, she got a call from a casting director who was trying to know her interest in a program that would later become Property Virgins.
She got the role after going for an audition. When it was about four episodes to the day of filming, she learned that she was pregnant. This gave her the fear that she may lose her job and have it from her producers.
Fortunately, she found out that it was not an issue, but another problem was how she would maintain a life and work balance while in New York. In 2012, she accepted to join WVEE V-103, which is in Atlanta, as a midday host. She got to host many stars, and simultaneously, the show Property Virgins decided to move to Atlanta in her favor.

The show, which highlights the balance between work and family life, stemmed from those spontaneous clips and is now broadcast in over 80 countries. As Mike shared with Black Enterprise, “The fact that some kid in Ethiopia or some kid in Dubai is sitting there watching us and feeling inspired … that’s what motivates me the most. People see us, and they see themselves.”
