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. Scott emphasizes that the show aims to help homeowners build their family legacy while preserving cherished memories. It's not just about making money, but also about holding onto the sentimental value of these properties.
