Sydney Financial Group to Award Deserving Utah Family

Utah Public Asked to Nominate Utah Family to be Awarded One Year's Mortgage

Salt Lake City, UT — Sydney Financial Group, a Utah financial institution specializing in helping people pay off their homes faster, announced today they will pay the mortgage of one deserving Utah family for an entire year. The public is invited to nominate candidates for the award. Nominations are currently being accepted at http://www.sydneyfg.com.

The winner of the award will be determined from varying factors, but foremost will demonstrate need for financial assistance based upon extenuating circumstances in their life. Others may be considered based upon their dedication and good deeds to home or community.

"There is no better way to show the benefits Sydney Financial Group offers home owners than to provide a real life example. So, we are giving a significant chunk of our marketing budget to someone who really needs help paying an actual home mortgage rather than spending it all on 'traditional' advertising," said Jason Borup, CEO, Sydney Financial Group. "While we hope that people will learn more about us and how we help people pay off their homes faster, this promotion is first and foremost an opportunity to help a good person who has been dealt a particularly hard hand in life."

The Mortgage Payment Award is designed to help a local family relieve financial stress in the present through a monetary donation while promoting future financial success through mortgage checking account education.

All entries must be submitted through Sydney Financial Group's website. Nominations will be accepted through July 2, 2007. Submissions will be reviewed by a Sydney Financial Group committee. The committee will choose three (3) finalists. The public will vote for the winner. Voting for the three finalists will begin on July 9, 2007 and end on July 15, 2007. The winner will be announced July 16, 2007. For more information about contest rules or eligibility, please visit http://www.sydneyfg.com/nominate.php.


About Sydney Financial Group

Sydney Financial Group specializes in helping people pay off their homes faster using a new technique pioneered in Australia known as a mortgage checking account.

A mortgage checking account (MCA) leverages your monthly income by automatically applying it toward your home loan balance until you need it for other things. This reduces the daily interest that accumulates on your home loan. Using an MCA, people can pay down consumer debt, pay off mortgages faster and build up retirement funds.
