• 1st Prize – the Package. All property conveyancing costs and fees of the Owners and the Prize Winners will be paid by the Promoter.  The property will be transferred “free and clear” of any mortgages, loans and other charges.  Once the property transfer formalities have been completed as required by Florida law (a process that may take several weeks after the close of the competition) ownership will be on a “Fee Simple” basis, similar to the UK Freehold type of ownership.  A Florida state-regulated Title Company or a Florida attorney will handle the transfer of ownership to ensure that all required legal formalities are complied with.  A cash alternative of £200,000 will be available to the 1st Prize Winner if he/she chooses that option instead of the Package as described in Notifying the Winners below.
