ARE RAFFLE WINNINGS CONSIDERED INCOME?

Yes. Prizes awarded by the raffle are considered income by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and are subject to federal and state income taxes and may be subject to state and local sales or use taxes. The raffle will remit applicable federal income taxes, as required by the IRS to be withheld, for prizes valued $5,000 or more (net of the cost of the ticket).

Bonus Cash will be remitted directly to the IRS on the winner’s behalf. Any additional federal or state income tax will be the responsibility of the winner. 

HOW ARE THE PRIZE VALUES CALCULATED?

Advertised prize values are approximate retail values. Due to housing market fluctuations, the market value of the Grand Prize Showhome may increase or decrease over time.

Prize values include applicable sales taxes paid on the purchase of the prizes. 

ARE THE PRIZES DONATED?
