UPDATE…. We blogged on this last year, it was one of the first attempts to raffle a house that then came up against problems with the Gambling Commission and the dreams of Brian and Wendy Wilshaw were shelved for several months but…. it would now appear the issues are resolved and the draw has taken place!
… someone has won a 1m 5 bedroom house and estate! According to their website the draw took place on May 19th and the lucky winner will be notified soon…www.winadevonpropertywithfishing.co.uk
A huge and wonderful shock coming somebody’s way soon (not me, I didn’t enter!), nice one!
The story of the draw being postponed was previously published by the BBC in October 2008.
I am sure this will restore a lot of faith in this method of selling and achieving top price but I cant see it catching on and causing concern to our agents!

I always thought these competitions were scams. Has anyone actually won one of these?
yes I think a lot of people were of the same opinion but they claim this one has now happened… lets wait and see if they actually announce a real winner with no strings attached!
confirmation also on win-house.co.uk site with several positive comments from people relieved its not a scam…

About this topic, I know everything. Hab was Volker Shtina and thought he was getting rid of neltkvidnoy property and called
the site winyourhome The following year came the competition http://www.contestswinmoney.info and began to publish such
projects. Also, a project winanewlife, only the organizer could not gather the required number of tickets and had to return
the money. This is true, and gives credibility in the eyes of participants. hank for the article and good luck.
