03 Mar New Year Giveaway first bonus winners announced

Two lucky homeowners have each won a cash prize in the first mini-draw of the Experts in Property’s New Year Giveaway.

The Southwest estate agency network launched its New Year Giveaway to mark the beginning of 2023. All homeowners who have their property valued by one of the network’s 60+ local estate agency member branches between 1^st January and 30^th April are entered into a prize draw to win the grand sum of £2,023. At the end of every month is a bonus ‘mini-draw’, in which two winners are randomly selected to each bag £202.30. These winners go back into the ‘hat’ for a chance of winning the big cash prize in the spring.

The winners in the January mini-draw are Mr & Mrs Etherington from Landrake in Cornwall, and Mr Haddock and Ms Hawkins from South Brent in Devon. Both winners have now received their prizes.

Belvoir! winners

Mr & Mrs Etherington had their three-bed semi-detached house in the village of Landrake valued by Belvoir!, the estate agency covering Plymouth, Saltash and the surrounding areas.

The attractive house is in need of refurbishment and so offers a perfect opportunity for its new owners to fit and decorate to their own taste. Sitting on an enviable corner plot with no onward chain, the house comes with a driveway and detached garage, front and rear gardens and pleasant views.

Belvoir! began marketing the house on 18^th February and, having conducted several viewings and received offers from four potential buyers, agreed a sale in less than a week. Alex Jennings, sales manager at Belvoir! on the same day presented Mr & Mrs Etherington with their prize. The couple were “very surprised and grateful to have won” and will be spending the money on new furniture.

Rendells winners

Mr Haddock and Ms Hawkins invited the Totnes branch of Rendells to value their characterful terraced home, which sits in an idyllic rural meadow setting in the hamlet of Glazebrook, near South Brent.
