We feel that such social network outlets as Facebook provide a perfect platform to work off of, so we urge all of our tenants to become a fan of our Facebook page.

You can become a fan by visiting this page.

And, just by becoming a fan, you will be eligible for a monthly draw to win a $50 gift certificate for Ebay!!

Other Benefits of Becoming a Fan:

  • Stay on top of TFPG news, events, and contests.
  • Connect with other tenants, make friends, and put together travel plans.
  • Use the discussion board to talk about job prospects and find flat mates.
  • Feel connected, but without the access to profiles that occurs when becoming friends. (We understand that some tenants feel uncomfortable giving TFPG access to their personal lives.)
  • Share photos.
  • Share reviews of favourite places around Sydney and Bondi.

This offer is open to any tenant, present and past, who becomes a fan of our Facebook page. Sounds like easy money, yeah? So what are you waiting for?! Add yourself to our fan list as soon as possible so you can be entered in the monthly draw!

*Draw will occur on the 15th of each month.

The office will be closed on Monday, June 8th, which was when we were originally planning to announce the video finalists and open it up for the voting.

Additionally, we have realized that since it is a holiday, it is probably also a great day for our tenants to finish and perfect their videos.

So, now, videos must be submitted no later than 11:59pm on Monday, June 8th. The finalists will be announced on Tuesday, June 9th and voting will open to the public!

Could you use a little extra spending money? How about $300 to be exact?! The Furnished Property Group is giving you the chance to win just that with The Video Contest for Cash!

All you have to do is create a video – 90 seconds or less – showcasing your favorite part of living in your furnished property. You can talk about anything – the view, the location, the beds, the privacy, etc. It doesn’t have to be professional. We just want creativity! So, for example, if your favorite part of your property is the closeness to the city, you could create a video of you starting your day at home and then walking to the city, but in 90 seconds or less of course!

Submission Deadline: Sunday, June 7th 2009

Who can participate? All tenants currently in TFPG, or those who will be signed up and with submissions sent before the closing date. Basically, you must be a tenant within the dates of May 18 – June 7, 2009.

For complete rules and some FAQs, refer to the Video Contest Rules page on this website. If there is anything not covered, please leave a comment and I’ll answer it ASAP. Chances are if you have a question, someone else does, too.

What are you waiting for? Just think of what fun you could be having with $300!
