Clinton is an Emmy-winning co-host of ABC's daytime hit, 'The Chew'. He is also very well-known for his stint as co-host on 'What Not To Wear', TLC's longest-running primetime reality show for 10 long years.

The lifestyle expert will now be seen clubbing his personal passion for real estate and his keen eye for design to show new millionaires what it is like to live large. He will take them on tours of every type of luxurious property including multi-acre farms, sprawling country estates to Mediterranean-style mansions, and cool desert properties to help them find the home of their dreams. 

Showstopping features like sensational pools, spacious kitchens, spa-like bathrooms, and plenty of square footage are just a few of the reasons these successful entrepreneurs will put a bid on a stunning, new property.

“These entrepreneurs have so much creativity and determination when it comes to their inventions,” said Clinton. “It’s such a privilege to be able to share with them my advice and imagination when it comes to buying their new homes.”
