Warranty Homes, Inc., of San Antonio, Texas has announced the "Win Your Dream Castle" Essay Contest at http://www.realestatecontest.com

Warranty Homes president Ernest Oliphant has been a homebuilder for over 50 years, and said about the launch "I wanted to hold this contest to help change the way a family can own their home --mortgage free-- and be able to afford the medical insurance, clothes, food, and education that life requires.

The first prize winner will receive title to a 4,600 square foot three-bedroom/3.5 bath, ranch home ("Dream Home") with an enclosed pool and three-car garage, as well as a guest home with one-bedroom/1 bathroom, kitchen, living room, (~900 square feet). The property also features an adjoining office and workshop, craft room, work area, garden barn and approximately 2 1/2 acres with lush green grass, live oak trees, paved drive, security gate, animal fencing, and a 550 ft domestic and irrigation well.

The property is located approximately 20 minutes from downtown San Antonio, Texas and other major shopping centers. An appraisal indicates that the value of the Dream Home is [$1,020,000].

Oliphant commented "I have watched the mortgage payments through the years for the average family mount up to a minimum $1,200 + a month. This is a payment that must be met each month  for over a period of 30 years, and learning from years of life's experiences, I have to ask myself, "how does one afford this type of expense and at what sacrifice to the family unit takes place?" Can health insurance, education and other essentials be afforded? Maybe both adults working sometimes two or more jobs a week, year after year, can make the mortgage payments, with little or no family life or fun in-between. I did this for most of my life, so I understand; yet I understand also that there can be a better way to live with more financial freedom which relieves a great 
deal of stress and unhappiness in life.

The "Win Your Dream Castle" Essay Contest will continue until June 1, 2005, at 12:00 noon Central Daylight Savings Time. Only 4,900 entrants will be accepted, and there are 100 prizes
to be awarded. Is this essay contest a Lottery or Raffle? NO, this essay contest is a contest of writing skill. One winning entry of every forty-nine (49) entries will be awarded a prize.

What's even more special is the opportunity for essay entries of the contest to ROLL_OVER $100 credit towards the second contest after the closing of the first Dream Home Castle essay contest. The second essay contest will be (2) first place winners of Dream Home Castles valued approximately $250,000 each with (99) additional winners of prizes ranging from $10,000 to $100. This program is a continual on going essay contest of skill writing, a fantastic new concept of debit free home ownership.
