Laura Dotson Net Worth $5 Million
Laura Dotson grew up in Thousand Oaks, California and had her first experience with auctioneering when was 20. In 1996, she met Dan Dotson, an owner of American Auctioneers, established in 1983. Putting her previous knowledge to good advantage, she became Dan’s partner and currently, serves as co-owner and manager of the company.
The American Auctioneers specialises in an auction of estates, equipment, legal/foreclosure auctions, business inventories, storage units, fundraisers, and appraisals, and Laura has approximately two auctions per day, six days in a week. Laura established StorageAuctions.net, a website that offers self-storage auction listings in the United States and Canada. Dotson’s company is handling over 3000 auctions and appraisals per year which helped to increase her net worth.
In 2010, she and Dan joined the A&E Network’s reality show “Storage Wars” and appeared in more than 100 episodes from 2010 to 2015. The series follows four professional buyers and their teams who are bidding on storage units that are in default. Anything can subsequently be found on sale at these auctions, from coffins to the world’s most valuable comic book collection; the items are often sold for very much lower prices than the original. However, that was the case in the beginning, and went on for few seasons, but the prices went higher and eventually became ridiculously high. Many people think that the show is fake, and that the whole situation is fixed. The series appears to have been cancelled after a severe decline in ratings, so after eight seasons, the “Storage Wars” is not on the air anymore.
Laura Dotson first appeared on television in 1984, in family game show “The Price Is Right”, and later in “Early Edition” (2000), “Let’s Make a Deal” (2003), “Happening Now” (2012), “Fox and Friends” (2012), “Anderson Live” (2012), “Hot in Cleveland” (2012), and “Home & Family” (2013). She was also a consultant in one episode of “Storage Wars” in 2012, and most recently was an executive producer of the thriller movie called “Fragmented” in 2016. These television appearances and producing a film additionally improved her wealth.
Regarding her personal life, Laura Dotson and her husband Dan Dotson reside in San Bernardino, California and don’t have children at the moment.
