THE GREAT HOUSE GIVEAWAY RETURNS TO C4 WITH NEW PRESENTER TAYO OGUNTONADE

Following a hugely successful first series The Great House Giveaway is back and welcomes a new presenter, Tayo Oguntonade.

As a result of Channel 4’s Black to Front project, property expert Tayo permanently joins the hosting team alongside returning presenter Simon O’Brien (Find It, Fix It, Flog It; Lost and Found), and S4C’s presenter Carys Davies (S4C’s Ar erth/For Sale).

In this game-changing property format, which partners with finance experts Together, The Great House Giveaway sees two people, who have never met and have never owned a home, given a lump sum to buy a property at auction. The pair then have six months to revive the property into a habitable and desirable home with the aim to split any profits. If they don’t sell – the house goes back to auction.

Kate Thomas, Commissioning Editor for Daytime & Features said: “Tayo is a brilliant talent who already has loads of fans following his advice on social media. I’m delighted he has joined the Bafta-winning team on The Great House Giveaway.”

Tayo Oguntonade said: “helping to get people on the property ladder has been a passion of mine for a long time, one of which I’ve been doing throughout my career. I am so excited to be joining The Great House Giveaway team and getting to share my advice with not only the renovation new-comers on the show but also the viewers at home!”
