HGTV Canada’s hit series $ave My Reno is back and looking for homeowners in the Greater Toronto Area.

Do you have a tired space in need of a fresh Samantha Pynn design? Or an unfinished reno that Sebastian Clovis can rescue? The entire $ave My Reno team is ready to help turn your out-of-reach reno dream into a reality! 

TO BE ELIGIBLE YOU MUST:

• Own your home and live near Toronto.
• Have a minimum of $60,000 for a kitchen renovation depending on the size, or $25,000 or more to contribute towards other spaces.
• Be interested in DIY projects and upcycled materials.
• Be available between June 2020 – Jan 2021 to appear on-camera for 4-5 weekdays over a 5-week period, be outgoing and enthusiastic about being on TV.
• Be open to the possibility of vacating your house during the renovation.

The Scott Brothers are looking for families in the Vancouver area who dream of turning their house into their forever home. Our homeowners aren’t looking to flip their property or make a quick buck. They know their house is “the one”, but just haven’t been able to put those “forever home” design plans into action.

We're looking for families that LOVE their house - terrific neighbourhood, great amenities, tons of memories and decent bones, but also know that so much needs to change inside and out that only a major renovation can fix! If this sounds like you, then Jonathan and Drew want to turn your design dreams into a reality and finally transform your house into your forever home.

To be eligible you must:

• Currently own a home in the Vancouver area and surrounding neighborhoods.
• It doesn't matter if you have owned your home for 60 days or 60 years. You just need to own a house that has the potential to be your forever home.
• Have a renovation/design budget of at least $75K ready to go.
• Be willing to move out of your house for the duration of the renovation/shoot (approx. 6-8 weeks)
• Be prepared for filming and the start of your renovation in early 2021.
• Make yourself available for approximately 8 days of shooting staggered over a 6-8 week period.
• Be fun and energetic! 
• We can’t wait to hear your stories!

Thank you and best of luck!
