Selling Sunset is an unusually good candidate for a documented net worth breakdown, because the business underneath the drama, luxury real estate, leaves a paper trail. Every closed sale shows up in MLS records and county filings with a real price attached. The Oppenheim Group publishes its own cumulative sales numbers. Court filings from at least one cast member's divorce spell out a home's purchase price and current value. None of that is true of a typical reality paycheck, which is exactly why we can build ranges here instead of repeating a number some other site invented.
What is not documented anywhere is what Netflix pays any of these agents to appear on camera. No trade outlet has published a per-episode or per-season figure for this cast, so that lane sits out of the model entirely rather than getting filled in with a guess. Real estate commissions, disclosed business stakes, and a few outside ventures carry the weight below.
Selling Sunset cast net worth, ranked (2026)

Jason and Brett Oppenheim: the brothers who own the brokerage
Jason Oppenheim practiced law before real estate, at a reported $250,000 a year, then took a pay cut to under $50,000 a year when he switched careers and carried $40,000 in credit card debt while he built his book of business, according to his own account to Business Insider. Two decades later, The Oppenheim Group's own reporting puts total brokerage sales above $5.3 billion across more than 2,000 closed transactions and over 130 agents, with Jason's personal career sales above $3 billion. His best-documented single deal is a $35.5 million Hollywood Hills sale on Hillside Avenue, called the most expensive sale in that neighborhood since 2012 in the brokerage's own coverage. He owns a rotating string of Hollywood Hills homes bought in the low millions and renovated, plus a Newport Beach mansion bought for $7 million. His twin Brett runs a separate firm, Oppenheim Real Estate, with more than $1 billion in personal career sales of his own; their family's real estate roots trace back to their great-great-grandfather's Stern Realty Co., founded in Hollywood in 1889.
Chrishell Stause: two soaps, then real estate
Before Selling Sunset, Stause spent six years as Amanda Dillon on All My Children, on what she has described as a four-year renewable contract, then played Jordan Ridgeway on Days of our Lives from 2013 to 2015 with recurring guest spots through 2023 that earned her a 2020 Daytime Emmy nomination. Neither soap's exact pay for her was ever disclosed, so we anchor that career segment to SAG-AFTRA's published daytime contract-player scale, roughly $1,500 to $3,000 per episode for an established cast member. Her real estate record is cleaner: MLS filings show a $10.6 million Beverly Hills sale co-listed with Brett Oppenheim in October 2021, a $4.1 million Studio City sale, and several smaller Valley Glen and Burbank transactions. She bought her own Hollywood Hills home for a reported $3.3 million. Her 2020 divorce settlement with Justin Hartley was never disclosed publicly, so it is left out of the model rather than estimated.
Emma Hernan and Mary Fitzgerald: the other big sellers
Hernan has said directly, in press interviews, that her food company earns more than her real estate work or the show itself. Emma Leigh & Co is self-funded, runs out of a Boston-area manufacturing facility with more than 50 employees, and sits on shelves at Costco, Whole Foods, Market Basket, Roche Bros, Shaw's, and Stew Leonard's, though no outlet has published a revenue figure for it. Her documented real estate sales include a $6.35 million sale to musician Alesso and the listing that sold Harry Styles' former Hollywood Hills home for $6 million in 2019. Fitzgerald has been an Oppenheim Group agent and its vice president since 2014, with career sales cited across multiple outlets at more than $100 million, a company-bio-style figure we treat as moderate confidence rather than an independently audited one.
The rest of the roster
Christine Quinn left the main cast after season 5 to co-found RealOpen, a crypto-focused real estate brokerage, with her husband Christian Dumontet. No funding round, revenue figure, or equity stake has ever been disclosed for that company, and her California real estate license lapsed in 2024. Chelsea Lazkani has MLS-documented sales including a $3 million Encino deal that closed above asking price and a self-reported $10 million-plus in her first year in the business; her divorce filings put the marital home's purchase price at $2.9 million against a current estimate near $4.2 million, with the split still unresolved. Bre Tiesi, a former Keller Williams Beverly Hills agent, has MLS-documented sales up to $15.15 million and has run an OnlyFans account since 2020 with no earnings ever disclosed. Nicole Young, a marketing consultant before real estate, joined the brokerage in 2014 and has been on camera as main cast since season 6. Amanza Smith spent eight years as an interior designer before switching to sales, and has spoken on record about relying on government assistance as a single mother; her figure here is deliberately the smallest and most conservative in the group.
The commission math behind every deal
A typical LA luxury sale carries a total commission around 5% to 6% of the price, usually split evenly between the buyer's agent and the seller's agent, so each side works off roughly 2.5% to 3%. From there, the agent splits that share with the brokerage. Jason Oppenheim has laid out, in his own words to Business Insider, a tiered framework where the best-performing agents can keep as much as 80%, mid-tier agents around 70%, and newer agents around 60%, though he declined to confirm his own firm's exact number to that outlet. On-camera comments and secondary reporting point to an 80/20 agent-to-brokerage split with no base salary for anyone at the firm, which lines up with the general no-salary, commission-only structure luxury brokerages tend to run.
How we got these numbers
Every figure above starts from a documented source: MLS and county sale records, The Oppenheim Group's own published sales totals, on-record interviews, court filings, and named trade outlets. Where no dollar figure exists for a real business or a real deal, like Vanderpump-style build costs or a Netflix per-episode fee, we say so and estimate conservatively rather than leave it out or borrow a number from an aggregator. No other site's net worth figure is ever used as an input. The methodology page documents our full approach, and the Celebrity Net Worth Calculator runs the same skeleton on any career.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the richest Selling Sunset cast member?
Jason Oppenheim, modeled at $30 million to $45 million. He owns The Oppenheim Group, whose own reporting puts total brokerage sales above $5.3 billion and Jason's personal career sales above $3 billion, well ahead of any agent who works under him.
How much do Selling Sunset agents make?
Agents work on commission only, with no base salary. A typical LA luxury deal runs about 5% to 6% total commission, split roughly evenly between the buyer's and seller's sides, and each agent then splits their side with the brokerage. Jason Oppenheim has described a tiered model where top agents keep as much as 80%, though he has declined to confirm his own firm's exact split to business press.
How much is Chrishell Stause worth?
Our modeled range is $8 million to $14 million, built from her six-plus years as a contract soap actor on All My Children and Days of our Lives, her documented Oppenheim Group real estate sales, and her Netflix and podcast income.
Do the agents make money from the show or from real estate?
Real estate is the larger, better-documented lane. Individual home sales show up in MLS records and county filings with real prices attached. No business-press outlet has ever published what Netflix pays any cast member per episode, so that figure is missing from every public account of this cast's finances, including ours.
