Jim's: be fan ForEvery thecustomer best should looking James Lindsay has just taken on the Jim’s Mowing franchise for Daylesford and Trentham – and couldn’t be happier.

garden in the street...

The Dean local made the move because he wanted an outdoor lifestyle and to work with the local community. It’s not his first outdoor position. James had a hydroponic lettuce farm in Korweinguboora for about nine years before moving to Dean six years ago with his wife Susan and now “almost 17-year-old” Eloise. He loves the Central Highlands and has historical family links to Trentham and Blackwood through his mother’s side, the Dunns, and his father’s family all come from Chewton. “My father was a country bank manager and we travelled around everywhere but as soon as I got out on my own, I moved to this area, well was drawn to this area, because it just felt like home.” James said he chose Jim’s Mowing because of its name and great reputation. “All of the work is guaranteed and with Jim’s people know they are getting a quality standard of work. If anything does go wrong, it is fixed straight away. And with their reputation and name it gives me the opportunity to develop and grow my business. And if you thing Jim’s Mowing means just mowing, think again. “I basically do everything from mowing to odd jobs, garden maintenance small landscaping jobs, gutter cleaning…I am a one-stopshop. “And the great thing is that I have the back-up of Jim’s so if someone has a bigger landscaping job that I can’t do alone, I can call other franchisees. The same applies if there is a job I don’t have the expertise for – I just call on someone who does which means we get the job done and I learn for next time. We network and work together – and I think that is really important. “I pride myself on doing the job right and for the customer to be satisfied. Jim Penman, who started the franchise, always said every customer should be a fan. “And that’s what I want too.”

“My father was a country bank manager and we travelled around everywhere but as soon as I got out on my own, I moved to this area, well was drawn to this area, because it just felt like home.”

807 Greenhills Road, Blackwood (7 acres approx)

Blessed by mother nature and rarely available in such a great location, Greenhills Cottage is a quirky and potentially life changing property. Immediately on passing through the gate, the visitor is struck by the beauty of nature as they wind their way through stands of established Blackwoods, past a tranquil spring-fed dam to the cottage perched high on the property affording magnificent views over local hills and forests. Greenhills Cottage is in the popular Blackwood/Trentham district and close to mineral springs, state forests, historic villages and great local eateries. All of that and ideal for WFH or commuting to city or regional centres such as Ballarat, Daylesford, Ballan or Kyneton. The custom-built cottage offers two bedrooms downstairs (and a potential third upstairs), along with two separate living areas for the family to spread out. The kitchen opens onto the downstairs' lounge with double glass doors to a spacious outdoor living area which is an ideal spot to enjoy the views and abundant wild life. Outside, improvements include established vegie gardens, a chook run, a container ideal for workshop/studio plus carport. Greenhills Cottage offers an idyllic off-grid lifestyle with minimal environmental impacts- powered by the sun, watered by two large tanks and heated by a locally made Ned Kelly woodheater. We love this place, you will too.

Property Market Returns To A New ‘Normal’ With the remnants of Covid restrictions largely disappearing in February, for the first time in two years, life as we knew it is back – sort of. Festivals and events in the Spa Country and surrounds are resuming, hospitality is recovering (despite acute staff shortages) and travel to holiday destinations is back. It is definitely a welcome relief to finally feel that life is back to normality. As expected, with Covid restrictions almost a thing of the past, we are also seeing a return to a more ‘normal’ market. Whilst two years living with a pandemic had quite an extreme impact, we are now witnessing a far more predictable buying and selling environment. Demand is still high and as expected, with more properties now available post the summer holidays, the market is certainly becoming more balanced and less frantic. One of the silver linings of the Covid experience has been how we transact property. There is far more flexibility in how we sell and the predominantly one size fits all approach of selling methods has changed for good. For example, auctions are held at varying times through the week, with virtual auctions likely to have a permanent place and campaigns now vary in length given the immediacy of information via the internet to large pools of buyers. Advertised

private sales, ‘off market’ sales (essentially created via internal buyer matching systems to find qualified buyers without conventional advertising) as well as expression of interest campaigns have changed our selling landscape. Consequently, list to sell ratios, days on market and auction results are less relied on as a barometer of what’s actually occurring in the market than they have been in previous years. Though the cooler months (largely Winter) were traditionally viewed as a time not to sell, compared to Spring, we have found in the last couple of years that seasonal selling is no longer a big deal. The market is now more responsive to the ebbs and flows of supply/ demand on a month-to-month basis, with activity more in tune with the volume of properties on offer. But in essence the best time to buy or sell is always when you are ready! Buying and selling real estate is invariably a long term decision so be careful not to over analyse or predict what is around the corner. This has never been highlighted better than the last couple of years with economists predicting 1030% falls in property values post Covid when the opposite was true. If you are considering taking the next step in your property journey, please feel free to reach out — we are here to assist.

Highly recommended

Robert was very easy to talk to, very clear with what was happening and very thorough with detailed paperwork, so we always knew what was happening. Robert did a fantastic job during very difficult times, including statewide lockdowns and achieved a premium price from local buyers. It was a pleasure doing business with Robert. We would highly recommend him Greg & Vienna – 42 Barkly Street Glenlyon 29 May 2021

Very professional

Rob and his team were very professional, easy to work with and achieved a result we are happy with. Rob was great to work with from the first meeting (important information about what we could do to make the house more marketable and the sale process), through to the selling of our house. Rob offered us several options and was very flexible to our personal situation. He kept us up to date and informed about any offers or matters concerning the sale. After the sale Rob provided support and information throughout signing of the contract, including helpful tips on purchasing a new house. Harry – 103 Tickawarra Road, Romsey
