What is Zach Roloff‘s job, does he earn a living aside from being on Little People, Big World?
What is Zach Roloff Job Description – Little People, Big World Fans Want to Know
If you look into Zachary Roloff’s background, there is one business solely associated with him and not with his famous father or mother. This is the United States Dwarf Futbol Association.
Zach launched the corporation in 2019. And it’s listed in his employment history. It’s a registered non-profit with him as president and Victoria Roloff, AKA Tori Roloff, on the board. It was a soccer club for little people.
So, is this a source of income for the Little People, Big World son? Zach Roloff job questions are frequent about the TLC star. Especially with Roloff Farms for sale and that topic coming up on LPBW Season 23.
Matt Roloff is rumored to rake in millions of dollars a year from appearing on TLC. Plus, there’s the income from the farm’s pumpkin season. But how much of that (if any) is allocated to his son Zach Roloff?
Given the acrimony over Zach trying to purchase the farmhouse and some land surrounding it, it looks like what Matt earns, he keeps. Although the Little People, Big World patriarch mentioned a legacy of inheritance for all of his children.
For now, the farm is definitely not how Zach Roloff makes money. But given some recent purchases, his hobbies, and their lifestyle, it sure looks he and his wife Tori Roloff have some cash to spend.
Is LPBW and TLC His Main Source of Income?
Zach Roloff was born on May 10, 1990. The first episode of Little People, Big World aired March 4, 2006. That put the Roloff family on reality TV just before Zach and twin brother Jeremy Roloff’s sixteenth birthdays.
That also means that throughout their adult lives, all of the family has been earning a living from TLC. So, it stands to reason that this would affect their financial futures. We’d expect that Matt Roloff and Amy Roloff set aside funds for their kids.
Plus, not all of the kids were on Little People, Big World but for those that were, they should have earned some income as well. It could be that Amy and then-husband Matt earmarked earnings to build a little nest egg for Zach, Jeremy, and Jacob Roloff.
Their youngest offspring Molly Roloff was just 12 when LPBW began airing. But over the years, she’s stepped way back and is rarely seen. Still, she likely also has a little pile from her various appearances on TLC.
Zach reportedly is the highest-earning Roloff child raking in $7,000 per episode while wife Tori Roloff is said to earn $3,000 each episode. That’s a $10k paycheck for their family for each episode.
With 15-18 episodes each season, that’s not a shabby payday of $150-$180,000 from Little People, Big World alone. Is that Zach Roloff’s only income source, though?
Little People, Big World: How Did Zach Roloff Afford a Million Dollar Home
Zach and Tori Roloff bought their new home on October 5, 2021 for $944,000. But their mortgage is only $548k. So, that means he put down almost $400,000 towards the purchase of their home. Or did they?
It’s their Battle Ground, Washington house. They prodded Jackson Roloff tell grandpa Matt Roloff about in Little People, Big World Season 23. Now, thanks to appreciation, the house is close to $1,000,000 in value.
It’s got four bedrooms, three baths, and is almost 3400 square feet on more than two acres of land. It was built in 2018. So, how did Zach afford the house and the hefty down payment? This is where Zach Roloff job questions bubble up.
Plus, they’ve got three kids now to support. There’s Jackson Roloff, Lilah Roloff, and newborn Josiah Roloff. And there are medical expenses with the kids beyond the average. Jackson needed leg surgery, Lilah’s got vision issues…
How do they afford it all? Our research indicates Tori and Zach didn’t put down $400k on their new place. They put down around $100k and took out a home equity line of credit for $300k. So, they owe nearly $850k in debt towards the house.
To qualify for that much debt, lenders expect a pre-tax income of $120,000 or more. That aligns with their TLC salaries. Plus, Zach still owns their prior home and it’s not up for sale. So, he might be renting it for income.
Plus, Tori brings in income from paid sponsorships she promotes on social media. As of now, though, it appears that Zach Roloff’s job is being on the TLC show. Tori was once a kindergarten teacher but now is a full-time mom, TV personality, and influencer.
