HomeAid OC’s Project Playhouse® Uses Online Auction to Raise Awareness and Funds

-

Newport Beach, CA – November 2, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — Year after year HomeAid Orange County has dazzled local residents with imaginative and whimsical playhouses in their annual Project Playhouse fundraising event. This year the nonprofit organization benefitting homeless families in Southern California has many reasons to be excited; it is their 20th anniversary, they are honoring General William Lyon of William Lyon Homes, for his 20 years of dedication to HomeAid, and now the general public can participate in the unique event with open, online bidding.

Newport Beach auction marketing company, LFC Group of Companies, is offering their auction platform, Freedom Realty Exchange® (FRE.com) to conduct an online auction of the playhouses.

“The addition of online bidding is the perfect way to reach a larger group of buyers and make it easy for them to participate”, says Gina Scott, Director of Development for HomeAid Orange County. “They really just need a computer, an Internet connection, and of course the funds to purchase a one-of-a-kind playhouse and support our mission.”

FRE’s online auction program which has successfully worked for numerous homebuilders’ grand opening and close out auctions across the nation, is now powering the sale of this year’s charming playhouses.

“With just a $100 bid deposit, bidders can be part of this exciting auction in a way that is practically second nature for most people–buying online”, says William Lange, President of LFC Group of Companies. “We are conducting this auction as we normally would for a homebuilder or developer; only with much less square footage.”

To participate in the Project Playhouse online auction, a bidder must register an account on www.FRE.com/888R2 and submit the $100 bid deposit, which is fully refunded if they are not the winning bidder. All bids will be displayed on the website and online bidding ends at 5:00pm on Thursday November 10th.

From now until November 11th, visitors can tour the playhouse village at the Irvine Spectrum Center® on Fridays from 12:00 – 4:00pm and Saturdays and Sundays from 12:00 – 6:00pm for just $2, children 3 and under are free.
