amazon giftcard (l) Woman greenscreen tiktok video with text ' Hi, Alexis. Thank you for letting us use your apartment last month for our property inspections! Your unit impressed so many people at the corporate office, that I am reaching out to see if you'd be comfortable with us photographing your apartment to use as our 'staged' photos for the blank studio floorplan. We would not photograph any personal items- we're mostly just trying to show the furniture layout, scale off furniture, use of space etc. Your apartment is adorable, and I know your unit would help generate interest when we advertise the floorplan. We would provide you with an Amazon gift card, and I would have my on-site cleaner coe clean your apartment for you' (r)
