Jonathan Scott Net Worth: Zooey Deschanel's Boyfriend Used To Be A Magician

Jonathan Scott’s net worth is estimated to be $100 million. Here’s how Zooey Deschanel’s boyfriend built his massive fortune.

Scott is known as half of the “Property Brothers,” along with twin brother Drew. Scott’s main task on their HGTV show is remodeling, while his brother focuses on sales.

“Property Brothers,” at its peak, commanded 10 million viewers per week, which made it a top cable TV program for years, according to Celebrity Net Worth. It aired in over 150 countries. The Scott brothers also took home several awards due to the show, including a Leo Award and Canadian Screen Awards.

The success of “Property Brothers” spawned several spinoffs such as “Brother vs. Brother,” “Property Brothers at Home” and “Property Brothers at Home: Drew's Honeymoon House,” according to E! News.

The Scott siblings displayed strong business acumen as early as their college days. They paid a downpayment of $250 for a house worth $200,000 and were able to pay the rest of the amount by renting out the rooms in the property.

Before making it big, the twins set up a company called Scott Brothers Entertainment. Seven years later, Scott Brothers Global was born. It acquired the rights to produce future “Property Brothers” shows from Cineflix, though the latter still has distribution rights and participation stakes. Scott Living was founded in 2015. It started as an outdoor furniture store but expanded to include home decor and more.

All in all, business ventures under the mother company rake in $500 million in revenue annually, which explains the 42-year-old’s massive personal wealth.

Scott was previously married to Kelsy Ully, but the two separated after three years. He then met now-girlfriend Zooey Deschanel while filming an episode of "Carpool Karaoke" with their siblings in 2019.

Deschanel was still involved with husband Jacob Pechenik at the time, but it was later confirmed the two had been separated for a while. Since then, Scott and Deschanel have been open about their relationship on their social media pages.

Perhaps a little known fact about Scott is that he used to be a magician. The real estate agent previously told USA Today that he won best stage performer at the Pacific Coast Association of Magicians competition when he was a teenager. He used “Jonathan Silver” as his magic stage name.
