Can’t afford that $1.7M dream home? No problem– if you’ve got $25 and a pen, you’re halfway there. Alla Wagner’s giving away her $1.7-million property in Millarville, and all you’ve gotta do to win is write.

It’s almost too good to be true, but Alla says it’s all due to her need to downsize. She wasn’t getting any offers, despite lowering the market price… hence the creation of Write a Letter, Win a House.

So what does she want to read? Well, the ex-librarian is simply asking people to explain how ownership of the house could change their life. Whether you write a story, a poem, or a mind-blowing rap is up to you.

Since the entry fee is $25, Alla’s hoping for 60,000 entries to recover the value of her investment in the 5,000 sq-ft, three-bedroom home, which is decked out with a piano room and a wine cellar.

So Calgary, get those creative thinking caps on and get ready to pull on those heartstrings. The contest’s on till April 5, so you have lots of time to pump out a compelling piece. Best of luck!
