'RHONJ's' Dolores Catania's Net Worth Is Pretty Impressive

For seven seasons, Dolores Catania has been a mainstay on The Real Housewives of New Jersey . She may not get involved in the drama by pulling hair or throwing tables, but she is the much-needed diplomatic voice of reason. This has helped secure this New Jersey housewife and mother of two as a fan favorite.

Staying firm to her beliefs has paid off tenfold. In addition to a renewed contract every year, Dolores has managed to bank a nice chunk of change from brand deals and endorsements.

What is Dolores Catania’s net worth? Here are the deets.

$5 million

<p >Dolores Catania is a TV personality best known for her role on The Real Housewives of New Jersey . She owns Powerhouse Fitness Center, works as a real estate agent, and flips houses.

Birthdate: December 28, 1970

Birthplace: Paterson, NJ

Marriage: Frank Catania (1994-1998, divorced)

Children: Frankie and Gabby

She has worked as everything from a corrections officer (we can totally see her in that role) to a shampoo girl to a surgical assistant. Like many of the other Bravo franchise wives, Dolores has invested her money in several business ventures.

She owns Powerhouse Fitness Center , a gym with several locations across the United States.

Another avenue of wealth for the star is flipping houses with her ex-husband. If that’s not strange enough, get this: The pair built the dream house of Dolore’s ex, David.

Dolores’s love of luxury homes extends to real estate. In a Season 14 episode , she told her current partner, Paulie Connell, that she was finishing up her CE credits so she could show a home.

In fact, she does so much outside of the show that she often forgets about it. "Well, [I'm also a] business owner. See, I never think of myself [as a business owner]. I don't think about things. I just do them. Entrepreneur, philanthropist," she told Bravo’s Daily Dish HQ . "I do whatever I have to do."

Dolores’s latest business venture is teaming up with Paulie.

It may not be the ring she’s looking for, but it is a commitment. In a Season 14 episode, the housewife shared that she and Paulie are starting an electrical business together.

“He’s teaching me everything and we’re going to be in business together,” she said. While at a meditation session with Jennifer Aydin and Teresa, she described the business as “eco electric.”

She also ran the idea by her daughter, Gabby, and her mother, Valerie. “I’m not an electrician and by the way neither is he,” Dolores said. “He has electricians that work for him, but he is a contractor. His intentions for me are very good.”

The women were more eager for the pair to get married, not start a business together. But Dolores explained that this is the level of commitment that Paulie can make, especially since he’s not divorced yet.

“I never even asked for it but this was the commitment he wants to make,” she said. “He thinks when a man brings you into his business world that’s the equivalent of being introduced to his children because that’s what that means to him.”
