Selling Sunset is currently one of the top reality TV shows on Netflix. Despite the amazing properties on display, that’s a small part of its success. Once of the main cast members, Christine Quinn was involved in a majority of the drama, fighting against her co-stars. As of 2023, Christine Quinn has an estimated net worth of $2 million.
Background
Christine was born in Dallas, Texas on October 14, 1988. Her mother is Barbara Dragony, but her father’s identity remains unknown. Quinn doesn’t share much about her early life.
However, it is known that she was a student at The Juilliard School, a world leader in performing arts education. Christine then studied Broadcast Journalism at CSU, Los Angeles. Before joining the real estate industry, she worked as a model and actress under the stage name Christine Bently.
Early Career
Quinn first worked as a model and had contracts with agencies such as Vogue and Maxim. Eventually the aspiring performer ventured into acting and got a number of small roles. Quinn has appeared in over 20 films and television shows.
One of her personal highlights include being a voice actor for a video game character. Her movie projects include Humans vs Zombies, Shark Night 3D, and Hot Tub Time Machine 2. As for her television roles, she appeared in Ballers, NCIS: Los Angeles, and Drop Dead Diva.
Real Estate Career
After multiple acting gigs, Christine Quinn traveled the world. While doing so, she discovered her love for architecture. Due to her newfound interest, she joined The Oppenheim Group, a leading real estate brokerage in West Hollywood.
Thanks to her acting experience, Quinn had no problem transitioning into reality TV. Unlike other agents such as Davina Potratz, she’s comfortable being on camera. However, fans considered her the villain of the show after quitting the Oppenheim Group in the last season.
After leaving, she co-founded a crypto real estate firm called RealOpen with her husband Christian Richard. RealOpen makes it easier for people to purchase real estate using crypto. In total, the startup now has nine employees. Crypto is a bear market at the moment so they may have started the venture at the wrong time.
Net Worth and Earnings
Before resigning, Christine earned a lot of money as a real estate broker in LA. Although it’s a tough industry, she earned significant commissions selling high-end properties. It is reported she made $1,082,400 in commissions, selling $37,080,000 worth of properties in the first three seasons of Selling Sunset.
However, it isn’t known how much she gets paid per episode. I don’t think she cared too much about her earnings, she loved the glitz and glamor of being on TV. Currently, Quinn has an estimated net worth of $2 million.
Personal Life
Christine Quinn is married to Christian Richard, a savvy tech entrepreneur who made his fortune selling his company Foodler to GrubHub for $94 million in 2017.
Christine loves the finer things in life and Christian is happy to open up his wallet to keep her happy. He paid $175,000 for her engagement ring as they tied the knot in 2019. They had their first child, Christian, in 2021 and the family now resides in a Hollywood Hills mansion.
