And the Winner is…

OK folks, we have a winner of the trip to Inman Real Estate Connect in New York City in January, PLUS up to $1500 in travel expenses courtesy of HomeQuest. A huge thanks to those two organizations!

Here you go. Congrats to the winner, and thanks so much to everyone who entered!

 

 

I’d also like to thank the two most important ladies in my life — my lovely wife Francy who folded 92 strips of paper with nary a single paper cut, and my daughter Lauren, who despite her lack of desire to be filmed again, was a good sport in helping out!

If you didn’t win, I’m sorry. I really wish I had 91 trips to offer. One of the lousy things about something like this is you make one person really happy, and disappoint a whole bunch. That kinda sucks… 

But if you didn’t win, you can still register with “early bird” pricing — IF YOU REGISTER BY MIDNIGHT TOMORROW!

Trust me, it’s worth the time and expense.

  • Good thing you added the $1500 for travel! Also, I love that you did a video of the drawing. Nobody could ever accuse you of picking a favorite that way. And it was actually fun to watch rather than just reading about it. Nice job! By the way, if you want to send me a shirt, I'll wear it around Austin.
  • Ok, this is fun... Jay, have more contests! Congrats to Poppy. That video was classic -- My favorite line?

    "Looks like we are going INTERNATIONAL with this one!"

    How come you don't have any Texas stuff hanging up by your fireplace? Wait, don't answer that.

    Congratulations Poppy! How fun to come over here and meet everyone!!
    Enjoy!

    That was great! Whenever there are online competitions, I wonder how they actually draw names. Someone may say it is old fashion, as these draws can easily be done via computer, but we all can say that no one cheated. Well done Poppy!
