All your burning ‘Dream Home Do Over‘ questions answered!
I got a call saying I qualified for a key! Yahoo!! What time do I have to be there?
All pre-qualified players (people who already won keys) MUST check in between 5:30-6:45pm. DO NOT BE LATE! Any pre-qualifiers arriving after 6:45pm will be disqualified.
I hear you have a new location this year…where’s the party?
The Dream Home Do-Over ‘House Party’ is Thursday, April 13, 2017 at the Holiday Inn & Suites Bellingham, 4260 Mitchell Way.
I don’t have a key yet, but I’m feeling lucky! What time do I register for the last-minute entries?
We saved 8 keys specifically for people to enter to win the night of the party. Want one? Show up at the Holiday Inn & Suites between 3-7pm on Thursday, April 13th to enter to win.
Can I bring guests? Can kids come?
YES! Please feel free to bring your cheering section! Kids are also welcome at the Holiday Inn & Suites. But keep in mind, the room will be very crowded and there will be adult beverages served and consumed in the room.
Will there be food?
The Holiday Inn & Suites would love to show off their new restaurant and will provide a delicious array of passed appetizers to attendees. If you’re looking for something more substantial, you may wish to leave time to enjoy happy hour or dinner at northwater restaurant before the party! Or have dinner before you come!
If people who pre-qualified don’t show up, does that mean those of us with keys have better odds?
No. There will be a total of 104 qualifiers no matter what. Any pre-qualified spots not claimed by 6:45pm will be added to the ‘last chance entries’ and qualifiers for those extra spots will be drawn at approximately 7:05pm.
Do I have to be a homeowner to win the 10K?
Nope! Nothing in the rules requires you to own your home—renters are encouraged! There are plenty of ways to spend the money at our eight sponsor locations!
I’m from Canada…can I come to the party?
YES! You are more than welcome to join us for the fun at the DHDO House Party! Unfortunately, you cannot win the 10K grand prize. To be eligible to win you must be a US Citizen, residing in Washington state, age 18 or older, that have not won anything on KAFE in the past 30 days or any prize valued at $600 or more in the past 6 months.
