Retiring Channel 7 personality Jeff Newman has agreed to become the new face of South Perth-based property developer Finbar Group.
The announcement is below:
One of WA's favourite television personalities, Jeff Newman has teamed up with local property developer, Finbar, to become their new face.
The recently retired Channel 7 personality is excited about his new role working with Finbar to promote their innovative residential and commercial developments in Perth.
"Finbar is a trusted developer and I'm really looking forward to working with their team on sales and marketing initiatives," Mr Newman said.
Jeff Newman has been a popular figure on Channel 7 since 1967 and has worked in various roles within the media industry during that time.
Finbar Managing Director, Mr John Chan, believes Jeff is a great fit with his company.
"Jeff is a Western Australian icon and it is fantastic to have him working with us to promote our range of developments," he said.
One of the first developments Jeff will put his name to is Fairlanes Perth, the development at the site of the old Fairlanes Bowling alley.
Located at 181 Adelaide Terrace, Fairlanes Perth will feature an iconic 27 storey mixed residential and commercial tower, including an extensive street level plaza and terraced amphitheatre.
"Fairlanes Perth is very much a unique development and the sales to date have reflected the excitement from the Western Australian community for such an innovative space", Mr Chan explained.
The development will comprise 128 two and three bedroom apartments along with three penthouse dwellings. The luxury apartments will also benefit from communal facilities such as a swimming pool, state of the art gym and a "Sky Lounge."
"I remember the old Fairlanes very well, but what excited me most about this new development, is the inclusion of the street plaza and amphitheatre. It's just what this part of Perth needs," said Mr Newman.
Construction of Fairlanes Perth has now started with completion in early 2012. Further details about the development can be obtained by visiting www.fairlanesperth.com.au.
