Start with a thorough declutter 📦
The first step is to make the space feel like an actual bedroom. Remove items that don’t belong in your spare room.
Re-house objects you use on a regular or semi-regular basis and find them a new home where they’re used.
Consider putting luggage 🧳 or #festivedecorations in deep storage such as the garage or attic.
Take this opportunity to air out your spare bedroom and run bedding through the wash.
When it comes to items you no longer need or use, but are still in good condition, look to #repurpose, #rehome or #recycle them.
Pull out the paintbrush 🖌️
If your spare room is looking a little drab, there’s no faster or easier way to give it a fresh new feel than with a lick of paint.
Add little touches of luxury 🕯️ 📖
A few carefully considered additions to your spare room will make overnight guests feel truly special - soft towels in different sizes at the end of the bed, a posy of pretty flowers by the bedside, a scented candle, a mobile phone charger, and a good book.

Getting the easier ones out of the way now, however, will lighten the “honey do” list you’ll face later in the year
Here are a few quick projects you can complete in just 10 minutes:
Lubricate sliding doors and windows after cleaning the tracks. Squirt some lubricant on anything that slides, such as sliding glass doors, windows and doors once a year. But, first, clean out the “gunk” that’s accumulated in and around the tracks.
Test smoke alarms and replace batteries during daylight savings changes. 🕒
Inspect your garage door opener for safety issues. Pull the handle to put the system into manual mode and lifting the door one metre from the ground. It should remain open. If not call the expert
Clean your dryer ducts to prevent fire hazards.
Most home fires are preventable, so including safety maintenance chores on your list may save lives. All of these tasks take just a few minutes.
Frayed wires are fire hazards so take a few minutes to check the cords on appliances, electronics, lamps and other electric products. Don’t run extension cords under rugs, by the way.
These simple tasks can help you maintain a safe and efficient home, leaving you more time to enjoy the season!

Moving out of your home is such an exciting time, but it can also get a bit overwhelming, especially when you’re figuring out what you can take with you and what needs to stay behind. 🏡 Here’s a friendly guide to help you navigate this process smoothly!

What Can You Take with You?
When it’s time to pack up, it’s important to know what’s coming with you and what stays. Generally, things like your kitchen and laundry appliances, outdoor furniture, and potted plants are free to come along unless you’ve made a different arrangement in the contract. 🌿
Sometimes, you can negotiate with the buyer to leave behind larger or more cumbersome items you no longer need or want. It’s all about finding what works best for both parties!
Tips to Help the New Owners
You’ve spent time getting to know your home, and chances are, you’ve picked up a few tricks along the way. Why not share some of that knowledge? A little note with instructions for any appliances or fixtures you’re leaving behind can be super helpful. For example, leave the alarm system codes, tips on using the air conditioner, or even the names of the maintenance companies you use. 🛠️
And if the new owners are new to the area, why not throw in some local tips? Recommend your favorite coffee spots, restaurants, or nearby activities to help them feel at home faster. ☕️🍽️
What Stays with the House?
Some things are usually part of the sale and will stay with the property. This includes items like curtain rods, curtains, light fittings, fixed floor coverings, ovens, cooktops, range hoods, smoke detectors, ceiling fans, and any built-in fixtures. 🛋️
Sometimes, items like freestanding dishwashers, microwave ovens, or built-in shelves are also agreed upon to stay. Just make sure these details are clear in the contract so there are no surprises on settlement day!
By knowing what’s what before you start packing, you’ll have a smoother move and a happier handover to the new owners. Happy moving! 🚚✨

The real key is the time you spend in the market. By understanding the phases—whether it's a slump, stagnation, or upswing—you can make more informed decisions. That said, there are certain advantages to buying during the slump and stagnation phases.
One major benefit of purchasing property during a downturn is that it often allows for more time and strategic decision-making.
On the other hand, buying during the later stages of an upswing can sometimes lead to irrational choices driven by the fear of missing out.
Always do your due diligence and stay within your budget!

🌟 Start by finding the right spot in your house. It’s not about size but making the most of what you have. Turn an oversized bedroom into a multi-purpose room. For productivity, natural lighting is vital, so place your desk near a window and add a desk lamp for those late-night work sessions.
🖥️ Choosing the right desk is crucial. Choose a simple design with just the essentials on display. Keep your space fresh by changing art and decor regularly, adding a rug for warmth, and bringing in plants.
🪑 Don’t forget a relaxing spot in your office like an armchair for reviewing documents.
🗂️ Stay organised! A tidy desk boosts focus. Use a locker cabinet for essential files and digital folders for everything else. A weekly clean-up keeps clutter at bay and sets you up for a productive week.
Have fun creating your home office space 🤗

Several influences have contributed to this trend. Parents are moving away from obvious gender colour biases and are instead inspired by interior styles like the Scandi look, which offers a softer neutral palette. So, instead of hot pink and cobalt blue walls, you might find soothing dove greys accented with icy turquoise, pale apple green, soft yellow, and light wooden tones. 🌿✨
Another exciting trend is using bold colors like black and primary shades. These colours are still quite gender-neutral but offer a stronger look, perhaps more suited for a toddler’s or young child’s bedroom. Don't hold back—your children are only young once. Their lives should be filled with colour, fun, and creativity. 🎨🌟
A bedroom with neutral-coloured walls and bolder accents in bedding and accessories can easily grow with your child without needing to redecorate. Plus, it makes the room versatile for other uses in the future. 🛏️🔄
An easy and eye-catching painted feature wall can visually anchor the bed in a bedroom, creating a focal point that adds charm and character to the space. 🎨💫

Regroup
Separate foods into groups of like items, eg baking supplies, spices, spreads, snacks, etc.
Label
Labelling your containers not only looks good, but it also makes it easier to see what you have at a glance.
Rehome
Put your food items back into the pantry, keeping in mind that the foods you use the most need to be the most accessible. eg if you don’t bake regularly, put your flour, sugar and baking powder on the top shelf. Spreads, cereals and everyday items should be easy to access.
Review and declutter seasonally.

It might be a few months yet before the residual impact of readjustments post the government’s 100-day plan and budget are felt.
Indeed, there are cool economic breezes being felt but there are signs of more positive activity ahead,” adds Baird.

Why Get a Property Appraisal?
Getting a property appraisal isn't just for selling your home. Here are a few other reasons you might want one:
- **Refinancing**: Need a fresh estimate for a new mortgage deal?
- **Home Improvements**: Made some upgrades and want to see how they've boosted your home's value?
- **Market Check**: Just want to stay updated on your home's worth due to market fluctuations?
- **Investment Plans**: Considering purchasing another property?
Whatever your reason, a property appraisal can give you a clear picture of the value of your home. 🏘️✨
The Appraisal Process - What to Expect
1. **Get in Touch**: Give me a call anytime to schedule your appraisal. We'll find a time that works best for you. 📞
2. **Home Walkthrough**: We’ll take a tour of your home, checking out the condition, size, and all the special features. We'll look at:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms 🛏️🛁
- Parking spaces 🚗
- Any unique additions or recent improvements 🛠️
3. **Market Research**: After the walkthrough, we’ll dive into some serious research. We'll look at recent sales of similar properties in your area to understand what the market is like. This includes:
- Location and its proximity to amenities like shopping centres, lifestyle facilities, and schools 🏫🏪🏖️
4. **The Report**: Once we've gathered all the details, we'll compile a report. This will include our professional opinion on your home’s value, often called a price guide. This guide can help you decide whether to sell, refinance, or simply know your home's worth.
