ALVIN, Texas, Feb. 17, 2020 Realtor.com® and
Veterans United Home Loans announced that recently retired U.S.
Marine Corps Veteran, Sgt. Jennifer
Robinson has won the $100,000
prize (less tax withholding) in the Veterans United Home Loans and
Realtor.com® New Home
for the Holidays Veteran Homebuyer Giveaway Sweepstakes.
Sgt. Robinson served in the United
States Marine Corps from 2013-2019 as a Military Police with
K9 Specialty. She trained Military Working Dogs at the Department
of Defense's training facility at Lackland Air Force Base for the
majority of her military career.
"Every year, this gives us the opportunity to meet an incredible
family whose service and sacrifice both inspire and humble us. For
our fifth sweepstakes, Jennifer, her husband and their three
children are no exception," said Veterans United Chief
Marketing Officer, Kris
Farmer. "We are incredibly proud to partner with
realtor.com® in this mission to help make the dream
of homeownership a reality for a deserving Veteran and their
family."
Robinson said, "Winning this is so shocking and such a blessing
to us. It means we can get a home with land, which is what our
dream has always been. We love everything about getting your kids
muddy and sweaty and learning what work means and how to grow your
own food in order to be sufficient in life. We can't thank
realtor.com and Veterans United enough."
Robinson, along with her husband, Troy, and their three children
live in Alvin, Texas. Robinson,
born and raised in California, is
looking forward to finding a new home with some land to bring her
mustang, Sundance, to Texas from
her hometown. The family enjoys hitting up any Texas sporting event, working on puzzles at
home and camping.
"Jennifer represents all who serve and have served to protect
the U.S., which is why all of us at realtor.com® are proud to
celebrate this moment with her and her family," said Tricia Smith, realtor.com® senior vice
president. "This is the fifth time we've participated with Veterans
United on a home giveaway for those who have sacrificed for our
nation. The dedication by America's service members has made the
American Dream possible for everyone living in the U.S."
