Considering how much the Baeumlers really spent on HGTV’s “Renovation Island,” it’s heartening to know they earned a decent amount from putting their struggles on television. As Distractify clarifies, reality stars are typically paid by the production company, but Bryan and Sarah’s remuneration is actually handled by Bryland Entertainment, of which he is the owner-operator. As a result, the Canadian natives are able to command a higher rate across the board — particularly given how many shows Bryan appeared on prior to “Renovation Island,” which solidified his lucrative partnership with HGTV.
The Nielsen ratings confirm how much of a hit it is, with the show reportedly garnering around 8.8 million total viewers since it began. Bryan is likely to be earning a bigger amount he’s handling the production side too, and working in a single location is generally more attractive to both crewmembers and companies because there are fewer variables to consider. It’s reasonable to assume HGTV paid around $50,000 per episode of “Renovation Island,” totaling around $650,000 for the first season alone. Bryan could easily have negotiated a higher price, however, given the show’s demonstrable success.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, the Baeumlers are worth a combined $20 million. They run their own business and have several successful reality shows to their names, so it’s unclear how much of that came from “Renovation Island,” but the couple are doing well with HGTV either way.
