I spent the weekend at a buddy’s seminar here in town, and then today I was on a local news station to launch a program here in Phoenix that I’m super excited about. It’s called “Operation Free Home” and it’s something that I hope will catch on and spread like wildfire across the nation. Let me tell you a little a little bit about it. Operation free home is a program we created to help give a family (who has experience some type of hardship) the chance to get back on their feet. Maybe you’ve heard of the classic Holiday song “I’ll Be Home For Christmas” by Bing Crosby, well I’ve added a new twist to that with this idea. Take a look at the TV interview the news station did on me here:

For one full year this family will be given a house to live in rent-free and most of their expenses will be paid by local businesses or other contributors. It works like a contest. To enter, a person must be 18 years old or older and a resident of Arizona. Then they go to www.operationfreehome.org and in 400 words or less they tell us what type of hardship they are experiencing, and then in another 400 words or less they tell us how having this home for a year will help them. People can even enter for another person if that person can’t get internet access themselves. The winner will be decided by a panel of non-biased individuals who will read the stories and select one family.

We came up with the idea because of the housing slump that’s happening not only in Arizona, but nationwide. I own a home in Phoenix that has sat unsold and vacant for a few months. Rather than trying to sell or rent it right now, I decided to take it off the market and use it to help a family in need. I figured I could help “fix” a life and “fill” a home at the same time.
Operation Free Home could be used anywhere in the country and will help people on both ends. It provides a valuable chance for a family who has undergone some type of hardship a chance to get back on their feet, and helps a homeowner or investor in covering the costs of maintaining a home that would otherwise sit unused and wasted.

Our contest is running from now until Dec 18th and we intend to place the family in the home just in time for the holidays. I think it’ll be a nice present for someone and I’m really excited to see how it all turns out. The only downside for me is I wish I could place more than one family, but I hope it’ll catch on and other owners with vacant homes will want to join in what I’m doing. I’ll be offering the plan on how to do this to anyone in any state who wishes to copy the program. I’ll be back on TV every week to give updates and talk more about the contest, but if you want to get involved as a sponsor or if you know someone in Phoenix that would be an ideal person to enter, please go to www.operationfreehome.org and find out more.
