Rich listers is a real estate series set in Auckland and Queenstown - the two most valuable real estate markets in New Zealand - a real estate market where homes regularly sell for well over the asking price, making the vendors and agents a small fortune. In this aspirational series we follow 8 real estate agents who are at the top of their game, selling a billion dollars’ worth of property between them each year.

Our agents live in a world where money is no object, and the sky is the limit for their millionaire clients who expect the very best service and the absolute best price! The real estate is the co-star of this hot format - mansions with views over the Haruaki gulf, private islands, stunning clifftop homes overlooking Queenstown with a backdrop of snow topped mountains, vineyards and multimillion dollar penthouse apartments are all up for grabs in this hot market and this hot new tv series!

“Décor and design is all about the detail. Now our viewers can experience the most stunning homes, gardens and renovations as if they were there.”

The revamped branding, from Mauritius-based designers Aestetika Studios, blends everyday home images with rich tones and bold colours to create warmth and a sense of familiarity.

 To celebrate the relaunch, a slate of new show and new episodes of old favourites will roll out from June.

Escape to the Chateau  — A maverick British couple with two young children give up their life in the UK to take on the renovation of a neglected 45-room French chateau.

Impossible Builds — From sub-aquatic homes to futuristic towers, complex construction projects stand tall as a testament to cutting-edge technology and vision.

The Home Channel, owned by Arena Broadcast, started as a weekends-only channel in 2005. Due to its popularity it expanded to a full 24/7 service in 2007.

“We are delighted by the success and longevity of the channel,” said Arena Broadcast head Vernon Matzopoulos, “and we hope to inspire and delight new generations of homeowners for years to come”.

Rumour: The Home Channel To Become The First TV Channel To Go High Definition On DStv


The Home Channel (DStv 176) is a South African based TV channel owned by Arena Holdings alongside Ignition positions itself as the home of the latest decor trends and home improvement ideas. It was the market's first channel dedicated for home based programming.

Since it's inception in October 2007, the channel has produced a number of original content including Colour with Panache, Finest Homes and Nadiya's Time and sourced a number of shows such as Selling House, My Dream Home and Coast Vs. Country.

Since 2022, The Home Channel is currently operating on the Openview platform through The Home Channel+ in a seperate agreement with eMedia Investments.

Later that year, MultiChoice had begun work on a high definition feed for The Home Channel. Other channels involved were TLNovelas (DStv 133) and TBN (DStv 342). Since then only TLNovelas was made HD but plans for that fell flat to consumers in South Africa.

As seen a while ago, MultiChoice resumed production of The Home Channel HD as they have the 24 hour lineup available which is very much identical to the SD feed and this could be an indicator that the pay-tv platform could be rolling it out soon.

Interesting enough when TLNovelas was switched to high definition it was made available to more DStv customers in the rest of Africa on top of being one of the only 4 pop-up channels at the time to remain onboard on the platform in place of AMC International's EVA.

Zambia's Power TV was also upgraded to HD and made available to more African consumers which could mean that more news might accompany The Home Channel or as seen earlier in the month Ignition's expansion to DStv Access amidst the price hike.
