30 years on – what has changed?

I was going to say the colour of my hair but actually it hasn’t.

Thirty years ago people seemed to understand that jumping in a stream or falling off stairs or sliding on ice may be hazardous to their health, now under Health and Safety regulations we are now required to point out to them what used to be obvious.

Murray Young to learn (mostly the hard way) what was required of an agent.

Homeowners now lock their doors.

When mistakes are made it is nearly always someone else’s fault.

Mobile phones mean you don’t spend hours at night catching up

Today Saturdays and Sundays are now virtually considered like every other day of the week.

But what really has changed in real estate over the past 30 years? Firstly the numbers have changed from ten or a dozen to over 60 agents but the number of solicitors likewise has sky-rocketed. (I use to know them all but not now).

A hand shake is no longer considered a binding agreement.

Listing authorities have gone from barely a one page document to a six page mini series where every i must be dotted and every t crossed.

Interest rates that were 18-23 per cent are now at all time lows of around 4-5 per cent. Training of new salespersons and existing agents is considerably more intensive with a minimum of 20 hours of training required annually as opposed to getting your sales certificate and being sent out into the wide world

2 years

with Vendors and Purchasers but because of them most people expect an answer immediately to queries they may have. People used to stop work at lunchtime Saturday so everyone could go to sport.

The waistline, certainly and the speed of getting about without doubt.

P.A.

But the one thing that hasn’t changed is the need to treat folks with respect, to deal with them honestly and In a manner you would expect to be dealt with if it was you in their position and over 30 years Mid Canterbury has by and large been serviced by very good agents from throughout all the competing companies.

Gardening

Colour your home and garden grows to a height of 50cm and produces single flowers in a lovely combination of tri-coloured blooms.

Tod Palenski Awapuni Nurseries

Not all flowers are created equal.

Some don’t like to be picked.

Some don’t flower easily or for a couple of seasons. Some require lots of ongoing maintenance.

Fortunately, chrysanthemums are not like some flowers. They are easy to grow and their flowers are longlasting.

If you like to have colour in the garden and flowers in your home, stop buying flowers and grow your own chrysanthemums. At Awapuni, we sell three varieties of chrysanthemum. Merry mix, also known as love daisy, which

Our other two varieties of chrysanthemum, snowland and moonlight, will grow to a height of 20cm and are good for growing in cooler climates. Snowland produces single flowers with white petals and a striking yellow centre, and moonlight produces all over yellow single flowers.

Chrysanthemums like well-drained and dry soil with plenty of lime.

This means they grow well with plants like roses, lavender, bedded irises and gypsophila as they all like the same conditions. If you’re planting tomatoes in a month or two and want to add some colour around them you could try planting chrysanthemums there too as, again, tomatoes like the same growing conditions.

Chrysanthemums will grow well out in the open but they also like to be planted next to the house as the soil there typically has quite a lot of lime from the foundations of the house.

Another place these colourful

flowers grow well is hanging baskets. Try planting our snowland or moonlight varieties in the middle of a basket and then strawberries around the outside. The strawberries will hang over the side for easy picking.

matter to the soil first. This will provide the plants with some food to keep them going. Then plant each one about 20cm apart from the next. Plant merry mix chrysanthemums a little further apart at 30cm.

Order some chrysanthemum seedlings from our online store at www.awapuni.co.nz. Or pick some up next time you’re at your local supermarket, Bunnings or The Warehouse.

Because they like it quite dry, they don’t need much watering. In fact, if they’re watered too much they become susceptible to getting rust. Pick off the dead heads to encourage more flower growth.

When you’ve got your seedlings, dig in some compost or organic

And enjoy your colourful garden and home.

DIY

Repair any holes in your walls on how much you are using at any one time.

4. Using a broad knife, fill the hole level with the wall and allow to dry and shrink back.

5. Apply a second coat of plaster over the hole, feathered out, and allow to dry.

6. Sand level with the wall using a sanding block or similar then, for a perfect finish, skim coat or plaster using a fine finishing compound to cover any sanding marks and imperfections. Allow to dry fully and lightly sand with a fine paper or foam sanding block.

By Shane Woods Insideout Property Services

As tough as it is, plaster board can withstand only limited abuse.

7. Remove any dust from the wall then undercoat the plastered area using a sealer undercoat.

It is important to use an undercoat for adhesion but it must be a sealer undercoat to seal the plaster. Being more porous than the painted area, it will show a different sheen level when painted. Ideally the sealer undercoat should be rolled to achieve the same finish as the rest of the wall.

Allow to dry fully for maximum adhesion.

A door flung open with too much force can produce a doorknob-size hole in the wall which although it looks scary and expensive, can be repaired relatively cheaply and easily with the right tools and instructions, making it the ideal DIY job.

The method of repair obviously differs depending on the size of the hole. If it is small and it hasn’t broken through the board, this can be easily filled, sanded and painted, but if a doorknob or fist-size, it will need a backing to support the plaster. If any larger the section of board ideally needs to be replaced, retaped, plastered and painted.

In this article we will look at repairing a fist to head-size hole.

1. Prepare the area by removing loose plasterboard and cutting back with a utility knife to a sound surface. Keep a piece of painted plasterboard to colour-match the paint if you have no luck finding any leftover tins.

2. Cut a piece of plaster board to slide into and behind the hole but longer on two sides to glue behind the hole. Push a nail or

Let the team at Insideout take care of all your painting and property maintenance

Woodsy slides a piece of plaster board into and behind the hole and glues it firmly in place. screw through from the back and hold it from the front. Now glue behind the hole and hold firmly until the glue grabs.

Allow to dry, then push the nail into the wall out of sight.

3. Mix up enough plaster required to fill the hole or use premixed, which can take a little longer to dry. Plaster comes in a variety of drying times – 20, 45, 90 minutes etc depending

8. Paint it out. If you have the paint used, lucky luke, you’re halfway there. If not, most paint stores are happy to match and supply smaller amounts – usually 1 litre minimum as you need to paint the wall out to the next break or corner. Even if you have the exact paint used and only paint the repaired area you will notice a difference in sheen level when the light hits the wall.

9. Cut up the ceiling, corners and floor of the repaired wall and roll out two top coats. When dry it should be impossible to see where the damage was.
