One thing to remember about listing your house with a location agency. It is 100% illegal to operate such an agency unless licensed by the Dept. of Real Estate, and you subject yourself to a huge risk by doing business with them. I recently did a report, and was amazed to find out how many of these ‘agencies’ operate without a real estate broker’s license. It turns out there are only 5 (five) legitimate agencies in the Los Angeles area. Always ask for the broker’s name and license number; otherwise, it’s just not worth it. I got my information by visiting the real estate dept.’s website at http://www2.dre.ca.gov/PublicASP/pplinfo.asp

We often have new homeowners listing their properties for filming. Lately, with the housing market salowdown it makes good sense to promote your home or business as a film location because of the added tax free income renting provides.

Most locations earn $5,000 to $7,000 per day. If anyone has a question or wants to register their home for filming, feel free to contact us. Madison Locations, Inc. (626) 399-6809

Great article about filming locations!

Interesting read. Your friend’s home is lovely.

Small error– “The Riches” was not created by Izzard, but by Dmitry Lipkin, who is head writer as well.

I’m so glad some one included the Riches in a Real Estate blog. It’s my favorite program.
It’s a program for all of us who think of ourselves as frauds from time to time. When we look around at what we have, or accomplished, and just know some one’s going to tell us it isn’t real. What I enjoy is that they are finding out that every one has a little secret here and there.
As for the Real Estate portion of the program the Riches work for an unscrupulous Real Estate developer. I’m sure by the end they will find thier employer has swindled more people, more times, for more money, than they could ever imagine.
It’s a great commentary on a life we take for granted every day.

I really enjoyed the first and second show, but I found myself getting nervous they were going to get busted. Who wants to watch people you like dodge the law all the time!

I also wondered what the homeowner thought in the first episode when Minnie had to break the glass on the front door to get back in the house- I think I’d have had a panic attack…

I’m with Jay, if Minnies going to be hanging out in my living room, I could see my way to letting one or two of the crew come in- maybe…

“Should you rent your house out to a filming company?”

If Minnie Driver is going to be walking around my house looking like that, I don’t really see much issue with letting the film crew in….

In all seriousness, great article! Nice looking home, I can see why they wanted to film there.
