Who pays for renovation on HGTV's 'Vacation House Rules' 

Homeowners in Ontario have an exciting opportunity to participate in a remarkable show hosted by real estate expert and contractor Scott McGillivray. If you own a cottage, boathouse, chalet, farmhouse, or historic home that has the potential to be a popular vacation rental, this could be your chance to shine. However, there are specific requirements to keep in mind. Firstly, you must have a minimum of $75,000 available to contribute towards the renovation project. Additionally, you need to be available for 4-5 days of filming over a period of 8-10 weeks in 2021.
