Drew and Jonathan Scott Stake Their Resources and Reputation to Back Struggling Property Investors in New HGTV Series BACKED BY THE BROS Premiering Wednesday, June 5, at 9 p.m. ET/PT

Home renovation and real estate superstars Drew and Jonathan Scott will put their professional reputation, connections and resources on the line to help struggling property investors find success in the new HGTV series Backed By The Bros. Premiering Wednesday, June 5, at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the ten-episode season will show another side of the Brothers - proven real estate moguls who know a good investment when they see one - as they relinquish total control of renovations to advise bewildered entrepreneurs, short-term rental owners and residential developers on high-stakes investment properties. To get each project across the finish line in an unforgiving housing market, the popular twins will back investors with their professional expertise, experience, invaluable insights and top-notch resources - gratis.

"We look for people who need our help to reach their full potential as property investors and who we can benefit the most," said Jonathan. "If we don't think our services will be enough, we won't back them."

"We have a lot on the line, too. Our time, reputation and resources, which are not unlimited," said Drew. "We are here to support, not take the reins."

In every episode of Backed By The Bros, Drew and Jonathan will consider two potential real estate investments. After assessing the properties and meeting the owners, they will decide who to back with their full suite of support. Offering their expert mentorship, project management capabilities, trusted trade contacts, a team of designers and a warehouse full of construction materials, furniture and décor, Drew and Jonathan will bring every resource to the table. The Brothers are ready to help the investors avoid pitfalls, but there's no guarantee they will listen. Protégés may push back or go rogue, but if they make the right decisions, they'll get the best return on their investment.

In the season premiere, Drew and Jonathan will review a troubled renovation project in North Hollywood that's already more than $100,000 in the hole, as well as a detached garage in Burbank that the owners hope to transform into a rental unit. While only one will receive the backing opportunity, the other will still reap the benefits of the Brothers' consultation and invaluable advice.

"We want to help investors make the best choice possible and we want to educate them along the way on what we've learned over the years," said Drew.

"We made so many mistakes early on in our renovation and real estate careers," said Jonathan. "We wished we could have had a mentor to help us."
