Question

I need a Peer Evaluation for my persuasive letter I wrote. Answer the questions based on my letter.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Homeowner:

Would you be interested to be in a major cable TV show in which two areas of your home would be renovated?

Is your home in desperate need of repair? If you’re not fully pleased with your home appearance, this can be an opportunity to take advantage of a team of expert designers who would contribute up to $20,000 worth of renovation. In addition, you will be featured on a TV show. All in our cost.

To be eligible for this show, you must own the home, have a front yard and provide two areas needing major help. The new show, “Hideous Houses” main motive is to turn unattractive homes beautiful and outstanding.

Entries’ will be closed November 20th. If you are interested and want to be part of the show, you can contact me on (301) NEW-HOME so we can discuss further details. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of a national TV show as well as have your house renovated with very low cost or free of cost.

Sincerely yours,

Sandy Nova
