ATLANTA, Aug. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Thanks to The Great Home Giveaway, homebuyers in Massachusetts, Arizona, and Southern California are living their dreams. Today, the contest organizers announced the first three $10,000 winners, and encouraged prospective buyers to enter for the chance to win up to $100,000.
Sponsored by Commissions Inc., First Option Mortgage and more than 200 leading real estate agents nationwide, the contest will award a total of $260,000 in prizes to 17 lucky homebuyers through January 2015. Altogether, there will be 16 individual $10,000 cash prizes and a $100,000 Grand Prize. These awards are an ideal complement to cover home buying expenses.
