Read More“I was looking at updating a few things in my bathroom and home and Anita came up with some great ideas that I never would have thought of. It’s great for me to have her by my side, as she has great advice and vision”
“Anita is great at what she does and very personable. She works with her clients and offers affordable solutions for their design and staging needs.”
“Anita provides a professional and much needed service offering easy and stress free solutions for home sellers.”
“Whilst we couldn’t see options other than to use our garage, Anita was able to work with the space that we had and made suggestions to put up a wall that blended with the character features of our home. She gave us recommendations of a reliable and affordable builder to complete the work. For a small investment, I have no doubt that adding a room has not only added thousands of dollars of value to our home, but it created a functional space which we needed for years to come.
Since then, Anita has always been my go to person for ideas and advice on colours and ways we can further improve our home, both inside and outside. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to any home owner who is looking for affordable ideas to renovate and make better use of their living space”
“She is always happy to give her advice and time when I needed it. It was a win / win for me as I not only saved lots of money I would have spent reinventing the wheel (mistakes from lack of experience costs a lot) but I have also learnt lots. Thanks Anita, you are worth every cent of your reasonable consultancy fees!”
Yes of course! Simple changes that adds the most value are
* Decluttering
* Paint – inside and outside in light and neutral colours
* New carpets and polish floor boards
* Repair before you replace
* Create a new room if possible
* Garden maintenance
For cosmetic renovations it is suggested to spend up to 10% of the current property value. For example $50,000 on a $500,000 property. Of this 10%, it would be ideally spread –
2-3% Kitchen
2-3% Bathroom
2-3% Other (paint, carpet, blinds etc)
2-3% Landscaping / Frontage
ROI is an acronym for Return On Investment. It is calculated by dividing the equity created by the cost. For example a $9,000 profit divided by $3,000 in costs equals 3:1. To make any renovation worthwhile of your time and risk, you need a minimum ROI of 2:1 or more
Yes I believe it is. Statistically properties that have been professionally staged will increase the estimated sales price of a vacant property by 7%-10% and sell 50% faster. Property staging incorporates styling, maintenance and marketing presentation of the property (photo & videos)
An interior designer creates cosmetic renovation design concepts, layouts and selected finishes for the home owners’ wants and needs. They often work with builders and trades to project manage the work.
A property stylist prepares a property for sale with an understanding of the current property market, design principles and the ideal buyer buyer in mind (not the vendor’s tastes)
Now! Most likely you will be selling and buying a property in the same “market”. So in a buyers market you may not attract a high offer, but likewise you have the opportunity to buy a better property at a discount. It’s all relative.
When contemplating days and seasons, different homes will present better when considering –
Weather
