How much does the homeowner have to pay for the work he does?

If you're in the states, I guess that maybe you're seeing "Holmes
Inspection". *Here in Canada we've been watching "Holmes on Homes" for
what - 4 or 5 years now?

My gut feeling is that your typical TV episode (for most of the stuff on
cable) is going to cost $50k to $100k for a network to purchase.

I would *guestimate* that a homeowner is going to be paying maybe 25% to
50% of the market value of the repair or restoration work that Holmes
does on any given episode. *In return, the home owner is essentially
providing the production set (his home) and is also providing the drama,
conflict, tension, or "human element" that makes the show a little more
emotional than your typical episode "This Old House".

We get both shows in the US.

Make it right.
