What are ARVs on the non-cash prizes? Taxes on such prizes often make these sweepstakes much less appealing.

When you win a sweepstakes prize, you are only required by the IRS to report the fair market value (FMV), not the sponsor's approximate retail value (ARV)

The 30K ARV is if the winner has a mortgage they will pay your mortgage for one year up the 30K

I'm sure they mean up to 30K, still funny though.
