Property News

To build or to renovate?

Angela Cornell There are two main choices people face when finding a home to live in: They can buy a block of land and build a home or they can buy an existing home and renovate it to suit their needs and reflect their personal style.

As one of the area’s leading real estate agents, Sharon McInness from First National Byron Bay has seen many amazing homes.

Most of Sharon’s real estate dealings are with people she has helped before because she is known not only for her professionalism but also for her empathy and wisdom when it comes to buying and selling.

Sharon has bought, sold, built and renovated many times, so she understands what people are going through. Here are her insights on the question of building or renovating.

However, renovate they did and the results were spectacular. Sharon says her approach to renovating is always the same: ‘Work within the existing constraints of the property as much as possible and have empathy not only for the style of the property but also for the locale.’

‘This approach will help you keep to your timeline and your budget and help to maximise your resale value.’

Sharon has also built homes and she appreciates the ability to customise the design to your needs, although she acknowledges that, with both approaches, sometimes you’re faced with things you weren’t expecting.

About 18 months ago, ready for their next move, Sharon and Tony started looking at what was available to buy. Although they were open to either building or buying an existing home, their not-negotiable criterion was that they had to be able to walk to the beach.

After some looking, Sharon and Tony bought a block of land at beachside Suffolk Park, expecting once again for the process to be relatively smooth and that they would be living in their new home by now. Unfortunately that is not how it has unfolded.

Sharon renovated her previous home in the centre of Byron Bay. When the property came onto Sharon and Tony settled on their block of land the market it was literally the worst house in the and proceeded to organise their development best street and Sharon knew it was worth buying. application to submit to council. The DA process There was a slight hitch when she showed the required a bushfire certification. property to her husband, Tony. He just looked at When the firies came for their inspection they her in disbelief: ‘You’ll never do it, Shaz, it needs broke the news that without an easement through a wrecking ball.’

www.echo.net.au/echo-property

their neighbour’s property Sharon and Tony wouldn’t be able to build their home as it would be in a Flame Zone and would have to be built to meet the standards required, a very expensive exercise.

This was never brought to their attention before the exchange of contracts. A long, drawn-out legal discussion began – an exhausting and educational process.

Always looking for a silver lining, Sharon says, ‘At least I can pass on what I have learnt from his to my clients.’

So Sharon’s final verdict or whether to build or buy an existing home? ‘I have had wonderful outcomes with both. In the end it all comes down to what is most important to you. I wouldn’t wish what happened to us with this block on anyone, but you live, you learn and we will have a beautiful home in the end’.

Building has just commenced on their block and, if things go to plan from now on, Sharon says they will be all settled and ready to host C hr ist mas at home.

Are you selling your property?

Print advertising is a vital component of any marketing campaign for your property but if your agent isn’t using The Echo you need to ask WHY NOT? The value an advertiser gets from The Echo is unrivalled in this area.

If your agent uses The Echo you know they have your best interests at heart.

WHY? The Echo prints 48% more papers than any other paper servicing the Byron Shire. Unlike other papers, The Echo is delivered to almost every home in the Byron Shire and

Lennox Head and is also bulk dropped to Lismore, Pottsville, Murwillumbah and Ballina, as well as hinterland villages.

The Echo has a longer ‘shelf life’ as people hold on to it to read across the week.

It has more pages, more content and more interesting content on each page; this is why it works for our advertisers.
