The seventh season of Australian reality television series House Rules began airing on 28 April 2019. ^[1] The series is produced by the team who created the Seven reality show My Kitchen Rules . This is Johanna Griggs final season as host. ^[2]

Season 7 was confirmed in June 2018 with applications for the seventh season of House Rules open between June and 7 September 2018 on the official Network Seven website. ^{[3] [4]} Season 7 was officially confirmed in October 2018, ^[5] as well with the announcement of new judge, Jamie Durie, who replaces Drew Heath. ^[6] Production for the series began in November 2018. ^[7]

This season of House Rules consisted of new teams renovating each other's homes and further challenges for an ultimate prize of $250,000.

Format changes

• Teams – This season includes six teams instead of seven teams like in the previous season.
• Prize Money – Unlike the previous season, the prize money is already pre-determined. The prize for this season is $250,000.
• Advantage – When a team has the highest score after a house renovation, they receive an advantage of 5 bonus points and $5000 for the next renovation; however, to get the advantage, they and another team (of their choice) have to reveal a room early, judged by the homeowners. The team with the best room receives the advantage.
• House Evaluation – After each interior renovation and exterior renovation, a property expert from Century 21 valued each teams houses. They told the team the evaluation of the house before the renovation was complete and then give them a card with the new evaluation, after the completed renovation.
