Estate agency to give away prizes worth £110,000 in bid to lure vendors
Expanding estate agency Petty Real in Lancashire says it will give away ten £1,000 weekly prizes plus a £100,000 main prize.
An independent estate agency has launched a prize giveaway so huge that even national chains might blanche at such a generous marketing promotion.
Petty Real is to lure in potential listings after announcing that it will give away £1,000 every week for 10 weeks. But that’s not all; potential vendors also have the chance of winning £100,000, which is locked in their safe (don’t tell the burglars).
The multi-branch Lancashire agency is looking for houses to list within its key locations, where the agency says buyers are waiting. These include Burnley, Barnoldswick, Barrowford, Colne and the surrounding areas.
Charlotte Hagan, Chair of Petty Real, says: “It’s really exciting, the £100,000 up for grabs is a life-changing amount for someone!
“That chance, combined with the really great odds of winning in the weekly £1,000 draw is going to make for a very exciting few months in our offices.”
Prize draw
The weekly £1,000 draw will run from 1st September to Friday 8th November with one entry per listing. Those wishing to try and win the £100,000 must visit one of the company’s offices in Burnley on a Friday or Saturday and have a go at cracking the ‘secret code’ to the safe.
Ian Bythell, Director at Petty Real, adds: “Last year we celebrated 90 years in business, our success is largely due to the fantastic relationships we have formed and maintained with clients over generations. Historically we have advertised offers and incentives but nothing like this before.”
