The flat being raffled in Terrassa – Público TV

The owners of a flat in Terrassa, Barcelona province, have decided to raffle their home as they are unable to pay their mortgage. They have also been unable to find a buyer or even to rent it out, and are hoping to sell 65,000 raffle tickets at 10 € each.

Europa Press reports the flat as a six year old 110 square metre duplex right in the centre of Terrassa and the lucky winner will not have to meet any of the legal costs for the change of ownership – that’s all included in the price of the ticket.

The owners explained that legislation on raffles is rather complex in Spain and so have decided to hold the draw abroad. It takes place on 31st July next year in the town of Gürk, in Austria.

The tickets are on sale online from www.teregalomipiso.com
