Davina Potratz wears many hats: actress, model, social media influencer, and most importantly, real estate agent. Fans have come to know the villainous recurring cast member (whether Potratz is mean behind the scenes is a different story entirely) of Selling Sunset quite well, as the loathed reality star has made her mark on the hit reality show. Through various endeavors, Potratz has amassed a net worth of $2 million (though her net worth isn't as impressive as show creator Adam DiVello’s). But how did the Selling Sunset star amass her fortune?
Davina has managed to acquire a hefty bit of wealth for herself over the years. A shrewd business sense and a little notoriety have ensured that the 31-year-old Hamburg native is sitting not only on a nice chunk of change, but has also cemented her villainous persona in the minds of Selling Sunset’s loyal and devoted fan base. Let’s take a gander at Potratz road to riches, shall we?

4 Davina Potratz Then Moved On To Both The Big And Little Screen
Transitioning from modelling to the silver screen isn't an absolute certainty. After all, acting and modelling require a different skill set. However, both professions are suited for anyone who dreams of basking in the public eye. Davina successfully made the transition from the world of modelling to Hollywood. According to IMDb, Potratz has been featured in such films as the Jennifer Lopez vehicle Monster-in-Law, an uncredited role as herself in the TV documentary On The Set: Raising Hell and of course making a strong TV presence on Selling Sunset, debuting on the series’ third season.

Having to deal with the rigors of a reality show (such as rules that the cast of the show must follow) were not enough to stop Davina from having a change of heart and moving on from The Oppenheim Group to Douglas Elliman. According to People Magazine, Potratz said this about joining Douglas Elliman, "I'm really excited to be a part of Douglas Elliman and their very sophisticated and global new development division.

According to People magazine, Jason had this to say, "Davina has always been a tremendous asset and a valued agent at the Oppenheim Group, and she is also a friend whose career decisions I very much respect and support. I will always want the best for Davina, and I hope that we continue to work together in the future."
1 And Of Course, There’s Davina Potratz's Pending $75 Million House Sale
Potratz is a salesperson first and foremost and adding a pricey Hollywood mansion to your portfolio is certainly a salesperson’s crowning achievement. As of this writing, Davina has yet to sell the $75 million Hollywood mansion and has even received backlash from Netflix about it (to which she sarcastically responded). However, when the property is sold, that will undoubtedly be a rather large commission and thus add to her already hefty net worth. Good luck, Ms. Potratz.
