Have you already tried the default 'game is not running'-options? like:

- Restart Steam
- Restart PC
- Update your graphics drivers (this one especially seems to fix a lot of House Flipper starting issues)
- check the game files for errors (From the 'Library' section, right-click on the game and select 'Properties' from the menu. - Select the 'Local Files' tab and click the 'Verify Integrity of Game Files' button. - Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.)

You're welcome ^^ As a general rule, those 4 things are often the solution if a steam game won't run, so if you ever run into a similar problem, try this steps...they save a lot of headaches xD
