Let the Madness Begin! Introducing RPR's Market Madness Contest

RPR presents Market Madness… where a $500 gift card is up for grabs!

We're putting a fun twist on the annual college hoops tourney and the upcoming spring housing market. This contest allows RPR users to predict advancing teams in the March Madness college basketball tournament. They will also provide specific Market Trends data points for the team's home court city.

Each round, comment your pick with the correct Market Stat for one point. If your team advances, earn a second point. Every point is an entry into the contest. It's time to engage, predict and win!

Prizes in the drawing include a $500 gift card, five $50 gift cards and RPR swag.

How RPR's Market Madness Contest Works

We've made the contest super easy to play — no bracket busting here!

Selection and Data Points: On designated dates aligning with the start of March Madness rounds, RPR will post on social media, including Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. Look for these posts to make your winning team pick, and to enter the corresponding Market Trends data point.

Participants earn points (entries) by commenting on these posts with their team pick to advance from the upcoming games and a Market Trends data point specific to the team's home court city. The required data point will change with each round. You can participate in every round, and you can enter the contest at any round. Your team does not have to advance for you to enter the next round. Here's how the scoring and accumulation of points works:

• 1 point for including the correct market trend stat for the chosen team's home court city in your comment
