HGTV / Fine Living House Casting Call
National t.v. show looking for stylish local homes
What You Get for the Money is a thirty minute television show that airs on both the HGTV (Home and Garden Television) and Fine Living networks. The producers are bringing their cameras to the Tampa Bay area the week of February 5th in search of outgoing homeowners/ design enthusiasts to share their homes and their stories.
The homes need to be stylishly designed and similar to what one might find in magazines such as Dwell or Metropolitan Home, and the value of the homes need to be within the range of 200k to 1M. Each episode of What You Get for the Money includes background information about the featured city, community, lifestyle, and housing costs.
The producers will see the homeowners in their home and out in the community, but the focus will be on the home itself and the lifestyle that you get for the given price, in other words, what you get for the money!
If you are interested or think one of your clients might be, please send an e-mail to Brad Charlton FL casting call in the subject header, or call 303-712-3182.
