‘Homestead Rescue’: What Is The Raney Family’s Net Worth?
Homestead Rescue is another Discovery Channel reality TV show about a family living off the land. What makes the show special is that Marty Raney gives people advice on becoming homesteaders as he did with his family. Joining him on the show are his children, Misty and Matt.
Here is a look at the Raney family from Homestead Rescue and their net worth.
How much is Homestead Rescue cast worth?
One of the big questions many fans have after watching Homestead Rescue is how much it costs for the renovations on the show. How does the Raney family get the money and what is their lifestyle really like when the cameras are not rolling? Most of the net worth for the family comes, as expected, from the reality TV show itself.
According to reports, Marty Raney has a net worth of around $1 million (via Distractify). While this seems like a lot of money, it is about mid-level for many top reality TV stars. For example, NeNe Leakes from Real Housewives of Atlanta makes a reported $2.85 million a season. When it comes to 90 Day Fiance stars, they make a reported $1,000 per episode. Marty is somewhere in between.
Looking at other Discovery Channel shows, Marty probably gets the most money from the family. When Alaskan Bush People started, Billy Brown controlled the contracts for the show and he made the largest amount of money from the family, as the rest of the cast was his wife and children. There have also been a lot of details released about TLC and the Duggar family, where Jim Bob Duggar was paid – and not his children, even when they were adults.
It is almost certain that Marty Raney’s $1 million net worth is mostly from the 10 years that the show has aired on Discovery Channel, which is a lot lower than a Real Housewives cast member’s annual salary. He then likely pays his kids, as they don’t likely have the same contract as their father, who is the face of the show.
Marty Raney doesn’t do Homestead Rescue for the money
While Marty Raney doesn’t make as much from Homestead Rescue as other reality TV stars, he doesn’t seem to do it for the money. Marty said in an interview from 2017 that he does the show because he wants to help others. He also said that he loves working with his kids on the show. That is where his joy comes from (via Hidden Remote).
Marty and his family also don’t live a luxury lifestyle, despite their net worth. The family lives the same life they help others achieve, living off the land and away from the materialistic world. Marty has talked about his dream cabin in the past. Maybe his million dollars could help him with that when he decides it is time to retire.
