Who pays for the renovations on Homestead Rescue?

The renovations certainly don’t look like they come cheap, but who pays for these? In an interview with Reality Blurred, Marty revealed all.

“As far as budgetary things, obviously this is a Discovery Channel show,” he said, implying that a budget is always made available to make “significant improvements to a homestead.”

Marty also explained in the interview that the channel also wants to save money where it can, and so suggest that materials are reused.

How authentic is Homestead Rescue?

As with any reality show, some viewers may question the authenticity of the show. Speaking on this, Marty said:

“Obviously the production people have been out there trying to procure the permits for building … or whatever is needed legally,” he told Reality Blurred. But “I’ve never met those homesteaders in my life until the day I drive into the property. … We meet them just as the viewer does, organically and authentically.”

He also told the publication that authenticity is the only way he would do the show. “The more I demanded authenticity and less scripting, the more Discovery and Raw got excited,” he said.
