Synopsis

If you’re a home seller wishing to skip the conventional process of listing your home and waiting for a qualified buyer, and you’ve always wanted to be “rich enough” to help your favorite charity in a big way, your time has come. I Sold My House in a Raffle explains the entire process for homeowners, realtors, and also for the nonprofit director who is open to an innovative fundraising alternative that can provide a sizeable chunk of cash to support the charity.     

Diane Giraudo McDermott, an advocate of animal rights, couldn’t match the incentives building developers were offering home buyers, and buyers interested in her property couldn’t qualify for a loan; so she used her marketing background and partnered with a “no-kill” animal shelter and successfully sold her house in a raffle.  

“I Sold My House in a Raffle is an excellent example of Creative Marketing. The best marketers think "out of the box" and Diane shows that you can really sell your house in a raffle!” –Ali Pervez, International Best Selling Author, Get Your Black Belt In Marketing, www.blackbeltinmarketing.com
“What a great marketing tool! This is a hot new method to get a property sold. My clients love this idea—I already have my first raffle house lined up. I’ll use Diane’s process to get and sell more listings.” Jack C. Rosemary – California Real Estate Broker, 26 years experience

Inside, you’ll learn how to utilize the best marketing techniques, create a winning raffle formula, complete the required paperwork, connect with the right charity, and reduce your risk.
