A rich couple with no children is looking to ‘adopt’ a first home buyer and give $170,000 of their wealth as a home deposit, in a new campaign for display home and house design company, Porter Davis.

Created by Accenture’s The Monkeys, ‘The Rich Parents You Never Had’ content series sees Aisha and Stu McFernlayson – who own 11 properties – on the hunt for someone they can ‘adopt’ and ‘give’ ‘a smart living home deposit to.

170k is a great hook… but for everyone except the winner, isn’t this gonna get everyone thinking that’s the magic number for a deposit? It’s not the case. Talk about scaring off first home buyers……..

They haven’t thought about longevity. Only a cool prize for 1 winner.

What a brilliant way to get a first home builder database. Kudos to all involved.
