Over $3.6m given to new home owners!

It's been an incredible year for McDonald Jones and our customers with our biggest promotion recently coming to a close after a huge 30th birthday celebration.

Since August 2017, we've given out up to $300,000 every month to a client who made a home deposit with us during the previous month. And, for those in the competition who missed out on the major prize, we awarded $30,000 as a second chance prize to another customer each month.

These life changing prizes have resulted in a staggering $3,627,480 presented to new home builders to help build their dreams.

After 12 amazing months of changing the lives of families forever, we were able to award the final major prize at our biggest home in the Hunter.

Huntlee Building and Design Consultant Angela invited her clients Nathan Hick and Courtney Atkinson to the Friday Night Football at McDonald Jones Stadium because the company had ‘spare’ tickets. Little did they know they would actually be meeting Bill McDonald who would tell them they were walking away with our last 30th Birthday Major Prize!

Before the game started, Nathan and Courtney got an exclusive look at the Stadium and were able to watch the Newcastle Knights and Wests Tigers run out onto the field. During their tour, Marketing Manager Nathan Thurston brought them to a room that would change the rest of their life.

Hiding inside, the McDonald Jones team including Angela and Bill McDonald were waiting with confetti canons and a cheque for a huge $229,100. This money will be used to help them pay for their Nova One being built at Gillieston Heights as one of our House and Land Packages.

What an exciting surprise that will transform the lives of Nathan and Courtney.

That wasn’t our only giveaway for the week, we have also announced 5 new second chance draw winners that recently won $30,000. Congratulations to Gianfranco and Rosemary Mattiuzzo, Gabrielle Karsch, Chase Ayres-Bennett and Kate Lesmond, Divyamol James and Sudalaimuthu Shunmugasundaram, and Ethan Marshall!

What a great way to wrap up a fantastic 12 months of celebrating transforming lives.
