Press Release Summary = January 2007: Ryan Mahoney, Managing Director of Better
Homes, went back to school with a recent visit to Dubai English College. The trip
coincided with the launch of the "Design a Better Homes Car Competition".

Press Release Body = The UAE's leading real estate agency is running the competition
to raise awareness of the significant meanings behind the striking designs on its
corporate cars. Given that Dubai is such a melting pot of cultures, the cars have
all been designed to reflect its diversity and represent traditions and cultures
from across the globe. Inspired by the Dubai population, the current fleet of cars
includes designs such as; Scottish tartan, Henna, Stars, Fire, dragon and a Tribal
design. All were carefully considered and designed in respect of a cultural
affiliation.

Students from the Dubai English College who were given the chance to check out two
of the existing car designs during Mahoney's visit, were excited by the competition
and looking forward to putting their creative talents to the test with teacher Sara
Hider commenting "this is a really good way to get the kids involved in something
meaningful and fun"

With AED 40,000 worth of prizes up for grabs for participating schools and students,
the competition is being run across schools in Dubai throughout February. Winning
students will also get the chance to see their work on the move, with the best
designs being used on an actual Better Homes branded car.

The competition was prompted by a conversation Mahoney had with a friend who teaches
and mentioned the car designs are something that students would love to be get
involved with. Following the visit Mahoney commented, "It was great to visit the
students and see their reaction to the cars and the competition. I am really
looking forward to seeing the designs and using them on our cars".

Schools wishing to participate in the competition should contact Better Homes on 04
