Get a House for Free (2017x80)

Uitzenddatum: Aug 08, 2017

Landlord Marco Robinson, who owns a business and property empire worth £25 million, is giving away a flat worth £120,000. First, he must find the right person or people who will benefit the most. Marco himself experienced homelessness as a young boy as he and his mother were evicted from numerous properties. Over the course of 6 weeks, Marco meets many applicants from the overwhelming response to his advert. As he gets to know the people desperate for a home, the decision becomes more difficult. Everyone he meets has a strong reason why they need his flat – from the single mum to the Syrian refugees, but ultimately he has just one property to give away. Once he finds them, their lives will be changed by this extraordinary gift.
