Lauren takes a knee ONGOING knee injury issues have caused one of Australia’s greatest sportspersons to retire from her career at just age 34, but with four Olympic medals behind her she hasn’t stepped down with nothing to show. Australian basketballer Lauren Jackson. SEE MORE, PAGE 2

Our great big idea By MONIQUE KUZEFF RECOGNISED now as a nationwide initiative, the locally conceived ‘Big Day Off’ has succeeded in getting big and small businesses, politicians, sports stars and well-known media personalities on board at its national launch last week in Sydney. Inspired by Albury Tigers footballer James McQuillan, who sustained a serious spinal cord injury in 2014 during a game, Big Day Off grew from the plight of the footy player and was designed to raise money to support and fund research for people impacted by spinal cord injury. The idea of the initiative is that businesses allocate a set number of extra paid days off and staff then buy raffle tickets to win them. McQuillan said even a small donation towards people with spinal cord injury had a huge impact on research and services. “I think it’s an exciting concept for people with spinal cord injury and I know there are a few different, great fund-raisers for people with the injury but we wanted to create something bigger,” McQuillan said. “It’s a concept that has the potential to raise money that can help a hell of a lot of people and shorten the time to find a cure for it. “We are hoping to get at least 5000 people on board this year.” McQuillan said last year the initiative was launched at the SS&A Club in Albury and this year it was launched in Sydney, showing its expansion. “I thought it was a great launch and a great way to start what’s going to be a pretty exciting campaign. “It’s already received a lot of support from a lot of different people including former Newcastle Knights player Alex McKinnon.” Mr McKinnon, who suffered a spinal cord injury during an NRL game in 2014, spoke at the launch and showed

how much the Big Day Off had grown in such a short time and was appreciative of the great ambassadors that had gotten on board. “Last year was a really good test run in making sure all the systems were in order and when they drew the winners that it all worked out well. “Now we are going a bit bigger and we know everything will work fine.” McQuillan encouraged employees

to get their boss to nominate their business and also spread the word of Big Day Off. “People are getting on board with it because its simple and effective,” he said. “It’s a paid day off work and it’s on the boss. You can do whatever you want with it. “Jump on social media and check out Big Day Off, because there’s plen-

ty of updates about what’s going on and how you can get involved.” Proceeds raised from the Big Day Off will go towards Spinal Cord Injuries Australia, SpinalCure Australia and other local groups supporting people with spinal cord injury in their community.

Basketball great calls it quits Slashing By MONIQUE KUZEFF

ALBURY’S national basketball queen

court’s backlog By MONIQUE KUZEFF ALBURY’S District Court has gained an additional three sitting weeks to help slash the backlog of criminal trials in the area. This comes as a part of the NSW Government’s $20 million package aimed at reducing the pressure on District Court across NSW. An additional 33 sitting weeks have been allocated across seven regional and Western Sydney locations, as a part of the first round package. The extensions will provide immediate relief and improve access to justice systems in communities across NSW. Albury MP Greg Aplin said delays had been disproportionately represented in regional communities and have in the past affected confidence in the administration of justice. “For all of those who are waiting trial or waiting to have a case heard, it will certainly relieve some stress and tension that comes as a part of that,” Mr Aplin said. “The evidence will be much clearer because people will be able to more vividly recount those events.

Lauren Jackson, 34, officially announced her retirement from professional basketball on Thursday 31 March, following ongoing issues relating to knee injuries.

The great Australian athlete publicly announced her decision tor retire at a press conference, backing away from the uncertain chance to compete in what would have been her fifth Olympic Games. With four Olympic medals behind her, the great athlete is not stepping away with nothing to show for her sporting achievements. Albury mayor Henk van de Ven said it was disappointing for one of the world’s greatest basketballers to have to retire because of ongoing injuries. “At the level that she’s at and the amount of basketball she has played, wear and tear on her body was always going to be one of those things that eventually would catch up to her,” Cr van de Ven said. “Unfortunately it happens to a lot of us and from that perspective she is no different from anyone else. “But it would have been fantastic for her to go to her fifth Olympics.” Proving her talents and abilities from an early age, Lauren was awarded a scholarship to the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) in 1997 at age 16, which saw her basketball career flourish from there on. She played a part in the AIS side winning the Women’s National Basketball League (WNBL) in 1998 and further honed her skills alongside various admirable women’s basketball coaches. By 2000 she was representing Australia at the Summer Olympic Games in Sydney and stayed on to represent her country in the 2004 Summer Olympics before becoming captain of her team in 2008, winning three silver medals.Cr van de Ven said Lauren had been and continued to be a fantastic ambassador for Albury and for basketball. “It all started 20 odd years ago when

“It provides the benefit of recall and evidence will be fresher for all parties working on the gathering of evidence.” “This is going to make a real difference to our justice system and more importantly to people involved in cases, particularly victims of crime.” The package also provides targeted trial call-over courts, new judges and new public defenders to hear more matters awaiting trial and to ensure defended matters are dealt with quicker. Mr Aplin welcomed the the extra three sitting weeks saying it will enable the Attorney-General to see evidence of how these remunerations and whether it needed to be repeated next year. “It is dealing more prospectively with the cases, because as they are delayed peoples’ memory begins to fade a little and they can often find it difficult to recollect exact details.” Three week-long court sittings are to commence on Mondays on 15 August, 10 October and 28 November this year. Further sittings in other parts of the state will be announced later in the year.

she became one of the earliest recipients of the young achievement awards and has blossomed from there. “We are pleased that she has chosen this area to make her home and we wish her all the best for whatever she decides to do in the future.” 2006 was considered Lauren’s most

successful year, which saw her as cocaptain and captain for teams that won two gold medals. She was co-captain of the winning team at the 2006 Commonwealth Game where they received a gold medal and was captain for the team that won a gold medal at the 2006 FIBA World Championship Games for Women in Brazil.

Big backing for chamber Mayor Henk van de Ven said that while AlburyCity has a responsibility to provide funding for ANCC, the dependence of the chamber on future funding from the council can be reduced. “There are a lot of services being provided to the business community that if they weren’t provided by the chamber we’d have to come to the part to fund those services,” Cr van de Ven said. “Bringing the chamber and Albury Central together makes a lot of sense and will deliver stronger results for those paying the Promotional Special Rate.

By MONIQUE KUZEFF ALBURY Northside Chamber of Commerce (ANCC) will receive $132,000 sponsorship from AlburyCity each year up until 2020. The ANCC, which is the largest Chamber in NSW outside the Sydney, Hunter and Illarwarra regions, has in past years delivered on its planned activities and provides business development support services to businesses throughout the Albury region. The amalgamation of Albury Central and ANCC in May, which will see Albury Central become a subcommittee of the chamber, is expected to result in better access to resources, knowledge and skills and see also the dependence on funding from the council reduced.

istrative salaries and savings that would go towards projects outlined in the strategic plan. “The chamber believes it will achieve in the order of $40,000 a year in administrative salaries and savings but those funds are being redirected to the projects that are included in the outline of the strategic plan,” Ms Squire said. “The information that has been conveyed to us reveals that the objective here was to achieve those efficiencies but be able to deliver more value through individual projects,” Ms Squire said. The sponsorship will be included in the draft budget that will go on public exhibition for feedback from the community.

“There are a lot of services being provided to the business community that if they weren’t provided by the chamber we’d have to come to the part to fund those services,” Cr van de Ven said.

For, by and all about youth at the coalface By MONIQUE KUZEFF IT’S official! National Youth Week is here, which means a week of fun activities are lurching across the Border for young people. With an itinerary full of fun activities and events to be enjoyed, young people can expect a full and busy weekend ahead. National Youth Week is a major annual event run by young people, for young people and is designed to celebrate the immense contribution of the youth in different communities. According to Albury Retro Youth Management Committee member Milla Reid, National Youth Week is about bringing youth together and giving them an opportunity to express their ideas and views, and to act on issues affecting them. “It pulls young people together and allows them to give things a go and show that they are doing good things in the community, and that they can do

ing in 2000 boxes, just to name a few. “On Saturday there will be Addicted to Acoustic, which is available to youth up to age 25 to enter and try to win their very own recording EP. “Food vendors and ice cream will be around QEII Square, and we will also have a graffiti artist coming along to teach the art of graffiti.” Other activities will include a card-

board kingdom, mini-film competition, ultimate frisbee, 3-point shootout, local music and sport competitions. These activities will be available from 9 to 10 April. Ms Reid said the Retro Youth Management Committee had been involved in organising the activities that would be happening over the three days. “There’s a lot of organising that has come out of the Youth Management Committee,” she said. “Including contacting people, calling and emailing, doing postal drops and organising various different things for the day. “We’ve been holding meetings every week, and we also promoted it at assembly, so hopefully we get a good turnout.” Ms Reid encouraged young people to come along to QEII Square, Dean Street, Albury, from Friday to Sunday, where there will be plenty to get involved in and plenty of prizes to win!

History is in the taking By MONIQUE KUZEFF “IT’S exciting to know where you came from, even if its from a convict.” First Fleet Albury Wodonga president Gaye Merkel is proud to be the descendant of two First Fleeters. Ms Merkel’s direct ancestor James Ruse was on board the Scarborough in 1788, which was one of the 11 ships of the First Fleet. Ruse was convicted for stealing a watch and sundry fabric. Initially Ruse was sentenced to death before being commuted to life and sent to Botany Bay in Australia. Ms Merkel said she was proud of what the first fleeters achieved after being banished from England, chained up below a ship deck, and transported to Australia. “For them to come out the way they did after all those months at sea and then build their life from scratch, marry and raise their family - I am so proud of what they accomplished and that I am here today able to talk about it,” Ms Merkel said. “We don’t know why my ancestor stole that watch and sundry. At that time around 1788, most of England was becoming mechanised, which meant there were less farms and less work for husbands to keep families alive, so a lot of them would

Gaye Merkel stands in front of some of the photographs from A Convict in the Family? exhibition. 152312 Picture: MONIQUE KUZEFF steal to afford food.” A new photographic exhibition, which will be showcased at the LibraryMuseum until 5 June, unlocks the history of 40 living Australians and connects them with their convict heritage. The exhibition, 'A Convict in the Family’, explores the correlations between the petty crimes the convict settlers where condemned of and their living descendants. Ms Merkel said the exhibition, by documentary photographer Mine Konakci, is absolutely fascinating. “It’s lovely to see a photo and look down and read how they’re connected and what their ancestor had stolen,

“It’s so insignificant by today’s standards because if you steal a watch today and you’re caught, I think you get a slap on the wrist and told not to do that again. Ms Konakci said what interested her as a photographer was the impact that the theft of relatively small objects had on people’s lives. “A minor crime, such as stealing a loaf of bread, resulted in transportation to a new colony and a new path in their family’s history,” she said. “By photographing the descendants with a representation of the item stolen by their ancestor, I have drawn a link to their family’s untold history.”

Headspace fights for funds By MONIQUE KUZEFF HEADSPACE consortiums across the country may well be expected to fork out their own funding after 2018 and will be required to tender to Primary Health Networks (PHN) under a competitive funding model. This was announced at the recent AlburyCity council meeting by Councillor Kevin Mack, who attended the Headspace National Conference at Etihad Stadium last month. With 87 centres across Australia, Headspace has provided mental health intervention services to 240,000 adolescents, aged between 12 and 24, since its establishment in 2007. The program is designed to improve mental physical health in young persons experiencing related problems and also provide work, study, drug and alcohol support. Cr Mack said the 31 PHN would take on the responsibil-

ity of 'gate-keeping’ the distribution of money to their Headspace networks. “There appeared to be no intention behind 2018 of providing independent funding to the existing headspaces or new headspaces being created between now and 2018,” Cr Mack said. “The 31 PHN will lead decision making about where any money should go based on identified need and priority of care. This means that it will be the PHN responsibility to determine the priority and needs on the spectrum of age demographic and distribute funding accordingly. “There is a tsunami of mental health issues that are going to be confronting our communities in the next 20 to 30 years,” Cr Mack said, referencing data produced by leading sociologist and demographer Dr Dan Woodman. Headspace Albury Wodonga would be condemed to compete for funding just like every other organisation, Cr Mack said.

“Within 18 months Headspace Albury Wodonga has met all their targets, they’ve worked really hard as a group and as a collective to bring all these services together under one umbrella, which is unique given its location on the border of Victoria and NSW. “While PHN will be the recipients of all the money, the Headspace Consortiums will have to individually apply for funding through grant programs because there will be no funding for Headspaces as there is currently.” With the existing funding contracts extended to 2018, Cr Mack said Headspaces would face a level of uncertainty about where the funding would come from nearing the end of 2018. “I can see this leading to diminished services and back to the normal process of individual organisations applying for money as they were before, and that is a major concern.”

Revved up to raise funds By MONIQUE KUZEFF KAREN Chetcuti’s former partner of one year, Greg Haysom, has called for drivers to join him on a round trip that will take them from Wodonga through to Whorouly and to Wangaratta for the purpose of raising future funds for Karen’s two teenage children. The fund-raiser was organised by SS owners clubs and Mr Haysom, who came up with the concept to help support Karen’s children through a difficult time. The proceeds raised will go into the children’s Wangaratta Council trust fund to aid them in the future. The trip will take drivers from Wodonga through to Beechworth and Bucklands Gap, to Whorouly, where Karen lived, and then to Wangaratta before returning to Wodonga. Participation costs $10 per vehicle and will depart from the Wodonga Home Maker Centre car park at 9am on 10 April. Mr Haysom said the teenagers had lost one wage bearer and he felt the fund-raiser would help them in the future. “They lost their mother, who was a great mum so I want to raise this money to help them with schooling, medical costs and other similar expenses. “I’ve given the kids a bit of space and they’re doing their best to come to terms with this.� Mr Haysom, who is a member of an SS car club, said he got to know the kids well during his time with

joined by at least 50. “I’d be really ecstatic if I got close to 100 vehicles but if I could get 50 I’d be very happy. That’s a lot of cars in one place.� On the day, there will also be a sausage sizzle and entertainment from former Australian Idol artist Korey Livy, a country rock and roll singer. Mr Haysom thanked SS owners clubs for helping him organise the fund-raiser and encouraged anyone who is interested in finding out more information to contact him on 6056 5746 or 0417 655 562.

Quality time with the grandparents By MONIQUE KUZEFF A SPLENDID picnic was held at the Albury Botanic Gardens on Sunday, which drew in a robust crowd of grandparents and grandkids who came together to celebrate the NSW Seniors Festival. 'Grow Young’ was the theme for Albury’s celebration of the NSW Seniors Festival and there was live jazz music and entertainment including art, face

painting and games such as croquet. Grandparents and grandkids enjoyed a barbecue, coffee, tea and ice cream. AlburyCity deputy mayor David Thurley said it was the first time a grandparents’ picnic was held in the stunning Albury Botanic Gardens. “Families are an important part of life for our seniors, so this special grandparents’ day at the gardens was a great opportunity to celebrate the role seniors

play in our community and families,” Cr Thurley said. NSW Seniors Festival is the largest festival for seniors in the Southern Hemisphere. It recently underwent a name change from NSW Seniors Week and was extended by 10 days. Our photographer ADAM WILSON was also on the scene capturing the special moments created in the gardens.

Service provides support option By MONIQUE KUZEFF UPPER Murray Family Care (UMFC) is a non-government community-based agency, which provides comprehensive services to communities in north-east Victoria and southern NSW. UMFC services include the Hume Riverina Community Legal Service, child and family services, family relationship services, out of home care and aged and disability support services. Some of UMFC’s programs are Support Options which provides support and respite for people with dementia, frail age or a disability, and their carers to strengthen the caring relationship, Interchange which supports children and young people with a disability and their families, and Child FIRST which provides a referral and assessment service for children and their families. UMFC Support Options manager Ruth Harris said UMFC is all about working together and provides people with access to diverse services. Caring for someone can be both physically and emotionally exhausting and isolating. Support Options helps to arrange and fund home-based respite, in-home support (housework or personal care) and, in some cases, aids and equipment may be funded. UMFC Support Options co-ordinator Jan Kowarzik said: “UMFC Support Options also organises support groups for carers, and the people for whom they care. “We can also link people in with other groups relevant to a person’s specific situation.” Additionally, Support Options works with other services to hold information

Downsize without compromise AS house prices in Australia’s capital cities boom, asset-rich cash-poor seniors are seizing the opportunity to improve their living standards by selling up and sizing down. Selling while prices are high and moving into more affordable accommodation, such as Active Lifestyle Estates Albury, allows home owners to access their home equity, boosting their cash reserve by tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. Melbourne locals Richard and Gail Begley had been looking for the perfect opportunity to downsize, and put their family home on the market only three days after visiting Active Lifestyle Estates Albury, which they have now called home for nine months. “Our family home in Melbourne was unnecessarily large for just the two of us, and the idea of downsizing had been on our minds for many years before my wife read about Active Lifestyle Estates Albury,” Mr Begley said. “When we moved to Albury in June of last year, we became completely debtfree. I can’t explain what a relief it is to know we no longer owe money on any of our assets. “Having freed up enough

equity to allow my wife to retire, we can now spend more time enjoying our new community, on the road visiting our family and friends and enjoying life.” With homes starting from as little as $195,000, Active Lifestyle Estates Albury homeowners are able to unlock considerable equity from their family home to fund their senior years, giving them the opportunity to do the things they’ve always wanted. Currently in the stages of a major redevelopment, Active Lifestyle Estates Albury will soon boast a newly refurbished community centre featuring an events space, swimming pool, and alfresco dining area, providing residents with the perfect space to relax, socialise and entertain. The community is also excited to launch the first three-bedroom display home, which has just arrived on site and will be available for VIP tours in late April, and open for public viewing at the official open day on Saturday 30 April. Active Lifestyle Estates Albury is at 508 Wagga Road, Lavington.

Free artist talk in the HotHouse

Ros Oades.

COMMUNITY members have a rare opportunity to be part of the making of a new local work beginning with a free artist talk with writer, Roslyn Oades on Thursday, 7 April from 7pm-8.30pm at the Butter Factory Theatre, Gateway Island, Wodonga. Writing the work, At the Hip will involve a 10-month journey with HotHouse Theatre’s Studio Ensemble and Ms Oades, looking into the heart of the border twin cities of Albury and Wodonga. Ms Oades said over the past 15 years she had been experimenting with a form of documentary theatre she refers to as headphone-verbatim performance. ‘This process involves interviewing local community members on a theme and editing the collected audio recordings into a play script,” she said “Our vision for At the Hip will fea-

ture HotHouse Theatre’s Studio Ensemble as reporter-actors: charged with the task of both interviewing and performing local personalities.” Ms Oades will be joined by close collaborator, actor Katia Molino, who will perform examples of Ms Oades’ work. Following the talk, HotHouse Artistic Director Lyn Wallis and director of At The Hip, will introduce the 2016 Studio Ensemble, and talk about the At The Hip concept. “Between April and June, The Studio Ensemble will be interviewing community members, so we would like people who have an intriguing story about living in the region to come along and share it with us,” Ms Wallis said.

Panda three packing a fair punch Kung Fu Panda 3 (PG) Starring: Jack Black, Bryan Cranston, Dustin Hoffman IT is very rare for any franchise to have enough legs to produce three good movies it’s even rarer for the third one to be the best. But there is something fun, a little new and really interesting about Kung Fu Panda 3, and it’s not just that Jack Black's Po is almost the straight man, um, panda, this time. This is a movie with a great ensemble cast and an interesting story to tell. The animation, as with any Dreamworks movie, is top-notch and the music is Hans Zimmer at his best. This is a little gem of a movie (and this is coming

from someone who wasn’t the biggest fan in the world of the first two). We return to China where Po’s (Jack Black) long-lost panda father (Bryan Cranston) suddenly reappears. The reunited duo travels to a secret panda paradise to meet scores of hilarious new panda characters (including several played by almost the entire Jolie-Pitt clan). But when the supernatural villain Kai (JK Simmons) begins to sweep across China defeating all the kung fu masters, Po must do the impossible - learn to train a village full of his fun-loving, clumsy brethren to become the ultimate band of Kung Fu Pandas! Although there is talk that

there will be more Kung Fu Pandas this movie finally shows Po (Black) living up to his full potential and becoming the Dragon Warrior - it also sees him dealing with two dads and his friend Tigress coping with pseudo parenthood. There is a lot to like about this movie - and not just for the kids (not the least the song Kung Fu Fighting, sung in Mandarin). The effects are great, the film is visually beautiful and Jack Black isn’t as annoying as he could be - what more could you ask for from a kids movie - add in the talents of Bryan Cranston, Dustin Hoffman, JK Simmons and James Hong and this is a lot of fun for the whole family. - Tania Phillips

Found: a developer’s delight BLOCKS this size - 1876 square metres - are more often found in semi-rural areas rather than in established residential areas in town. This unique split-level site in the Hamilton Valley area of Lavington could suit a number of purposes: building your own substantial home with a tennis court, swimming pool, and additional shedding; building a group of quality townhouses with each having ample space around them; building a residence for yourself on the higher section at the rear and investment units at the front.

All development options will be subject to council approval. Both the street-front section and elevated rear section are level, for ease of building. Established shady trees provide a pleasant aspect, while electricity, gas, and water connections are all adjacent. Within close proximity are bus stops, schools, bicycle tracks, parks and playgrounds, sports fields, and shops. Nearby thoroughfares such as Burrows Road and Urana Road provide easy access to Lavington and Albury CBDs.

When it’s cheaper to buy than rent

significant capital growth with the median house price increasing 28 per cent in the year to December 2015. Two-bedroom homes in Morwell are also more affordable to buy than rent, with a house price of $132,000 and weekly mortgage repayments of $147 - $32 less than the town’s weekly median rent for a two-bedroom house of $180. Located 150km from Melbourne, the commuter town has experienced capital growth of 10 per cent in the year to December 2015. Other towns offering value for money include three-bedroom properties in Mildura, Stawell and Wodonga.

WHILE renting is generally considered more affordable than buying a home, new REIV data shows it’s actually cheaper to buy than rent in a number of regional Victorian towns. The largest difference between mortgage repayments and weekly median rent was recorded in Red Cliffs, south of Mildura. With a median house price for a three-bedroom home of $192,000, the weekly mortgage on this size of home in the town is $214 a week - $51 a week cheaper than the town’s median rent for a three-bedroom home of $265. In further good news for buyers in Red Cliffs, homes in the town are also showing

With a median house price of $228,750 for a three-bedroom home in Mildura, the weekly mortgage repayments is $255 - $25 a week cheaper than the town’s rent for this property type of $280. Meanwhile, a weekly mortgage repayment on a $177,000 three-bedroom home in Stawell is $197 - $23 a week cheaper than the town’s median rent of $220 for this property type. Three-bedroom homes and two-bedroom units were both cheaper to buy than rent in Wodonga. Repayments on a threebedroom home were $14 a week cheaper than the median rent for that property type in Wodonga, while two-bedroom units

were $10 a week cheaper. Two-bedroom homes in Bairnsdale were also more affordable to buy than rent with the weekly mortgage repayment $15 cheaper than the town’s median rent for similar properties. Bairnsdale’s $210,000 median house price has also increased over the year, up eight per cent in the year to December 2015. These figures are based on median house prices by bedroom, a 10 per cent deposit and a fixed interest rate of five per cent over 30 years.

Albury Wodonga’s Property Guide

You better dress to impress AS THE real estate market continues to improve, potential buyers are coming out in droves. Low mortgage rates, a stronger economy and the spring season, when more homes are put up for sale, are helping to drive demand. In some parts of the nation, demand now exceeds supply. And many homes are being purchased within days, if not hours, of going on the market. If buyers aren’t competing for your newly listed home, could it be that it’s not dressed to impress? “Boomers and older folks always have a much harder time selling their homes. It takes them longer because they’re often not aware how much work a home needs to get ready for showing," says Barbara Corcoran, a host of ABC’s Shark Tank, who parlayed a $1000 loan into a $5 billion real estate empire. Beyond getting a great realtor with expertise in your area, competitive pricing and the much ballyhooed “staging" and removing clutter, what else can you do to make your home stand out from others for a quicker sale? Here are some lesser-known tips from the experts: 1. Price with round numbers In reviewing a year of sales in the Houston area, realtor Jim Mulholland finds that homes listed at or just above “00" sold in about two and a half weeks compared with four weeks for properties with “99.“ His reasoning: “If I’m a consumer looking in the $300K to $400K price range, there’s a good chance I will completely miss some very nice homes listed at $299K." 2. Don’t skimp on photos As the most valued feature of real estate websites, photographs of the home turn lookers into visitors. So make them count. “You can’t have too many photos as long as they’re great, but have at least six," says Corcoran. She suggests hiring professionals who specialise in photograph-

ing homes. “It’s best not to have a realtor shoot them,“ she adds. The shoot should be done on a sunny day, after curtains are removed. You should also tell the photographer about your favorite views or your home’s best features, suggests Patricia Pipkin of the National Association of Realtors. You’ll want to review photos before they’re posted, but they should include an exterior front, main living area, kitchen, bedrooms and master bath. 3. Storage space sells Roomy closets and other storage space ranks among today’s most desired features, especially with younger people who typically buy boomers’ homes. “Problem is," notes Debra Carney-Schoepe, a realtor in the Philadelphia suburbs, “many boomers live in older homes with limited storage

space. So remove excess seasonal clothing from closets and 'color-code’ what’s left on the sides to make small spaces look larger and more organised - with empty hangers in the middle.“ Shelving units or organisers in walk-in closets are a fast-growing must-have - and worth their $200 price tag. Also, pare down kitchen cabinets and remove drain cleaners and other products that may indicate potential problems. 4. Know the eight-second rule In that time, many buyers decide whether they’ll buy the home, says Corcoran. For better curb appeal, ensure that the lawn and entryway look neat and crisp. And plant yellow flowers. Studies show that yellow excites and stimulates buying, says Carney-Schoepe.

5. Get an appraisal and inspection Two big reasons why deals fall through: A lender-required appraisal is lower than the buying price, and unexpected and potentially costly problems are discovered in a buyer’s inspection. The inspection lets buyers know about potential problems “and what could be negotiated," says Pipkin. If these reports are positive, then showing them to prospective buyers can be a great marketing tool. 6. Painting pays Fresh paint provides the best bang for your buck, so apply a fresh coat to walls and even ceilings. Bright white ceilings enhance perceived height and natural light. For wall colors, visit new neighborhood developments and see what colors and finishes are being used. Then copy those in your home, says Corcoran. 7. Offer a financial goody bag Many sellers offer to pre-pay taxes or closing costs. But it may cost less to offer to pay for a year’s landscaping, pool cleaning or maid service - before negotiations begin. “If you have a great garden, people respond to it ... and immediately think, 'Oh, so much work'," says Corcoran. “So remove any potential problem by offering up front to make that beautiful garden come with a gardener for a year." 8. Consider add-ons to stand out If you’re trying to sell in a competitive area, you could drop your price for a quicker sale. Real estate investor and professional flipper Mike LaCava, who founded the online House Flipping School near Boston, has another strategy. “To make a home stand out from the pack, I install features desired by today’s younger buyers - such as a wall-mounted flat-screen TV and/or a wine cooler. It may cost about $1000 or so, but for homes that are competitively priced, it often can mean a faster sale than your neighbor’s house. And time is money - especially in real estate."

Acceptance is key at Elmwood By MONIQUE KUZEFF ELMWOOD nurtures the notion that acceptance and diversity are key to a positive and inclusive community. This week we introduce the 11th part of a 12-part series explaining why Elmwood has been awarded one of the best developments in Australia. 15 months ago Harrison Fischer, who is autistic, began a big transition moving from home with his parents to independent living. With help from his mother Judy Brewer, who is the chairperson of Autism CRC, he found that the Elmwood community was accepting of those with differences like himself. Ms Brewer said that she instantly felt Elmwood had a welcoming feel about it and began picturing Harrison living there comfortably. “It was obvious that Elmwood is accepting of those of different ages and backgrounds,” she said. “I had people coming up to me to tell me how great a place it is to live in.” Ms Brewer said that Harrison has transitioned well into the lifestyle and has made a group of friends. “The design of Elmwood

is attractive and the houses themselves are very easy to maintain. “It’s the perfect mix where you can shut your door and have your own space or you can have the door open and there is always someone to talk to.” Ms Brewer said Harrison had gained a sense of belonging to Elmwood and was ready to live by himself in the house. “Living here he has total freedom and security but he also feels a sense of belonging to the community. Last year a community vegetable garden was established and the next phase includes a meeting and barbecue area beside the community garden in the centre of the estate. Every Wednesday, a group of residents gather for a chat, some lunch and a game of chess and this is just one example of the social living experience by residents. It’s a great example of an inclusive community, and that has a lot to do with its acceptance and diversity. Everyone has a different story and this is a community where all those stories are accepted without judgement.

Elmwood residents James Black and Harrison Fischer enjoy a game of chess. 152337 Picture: MONIQUE KUZEFF

Local Sport Few surprises under the sun ROUND two was played in glorious autumn sunshine and all bar one of the Ovens and Murray Seniors matches went as anticipated. At the end of the round two sides, Yarrawonga and Albury are undefeated and two sides yet to open their accounts, Raiders and Corowa Rutherglen. Wangaratta Rovers provided the upset of the day not so much by winning but the margin of 46 points was the biggest winning margin of the day. Wodonga defeated Corowa Rutherglen to open their account for 2016 with a hardfought 29-point win, Lavington got home from North Albury by 25 points with Adam Prior being the “goalist” of the round with a bag of nine. Josh Mellington’s five goals was the margin that Albury got home by from Wangaratta Magpies. These two side always have a good battle of recent times. Yarrawonga scored by just under seven goals in an encounter that lacked real excitement with both sides below strength with injuries and unavailabili-

ties - seems the wedding season has been extended into football time. Round three sees four day games and an evening encounter at Lavington oval with the Raiders being the guests. The Panthers aren’t expected to be genial hosts and should record a hard-fought win. At the Finlay City Oval, Wangaratta Rovers will host Wodonga. Both sides are in the reconstruction phase and should provide an interesting battle as both sides opened their ladder accounts last week. Rovers on last week’s form to overshadow the Bulldogs. Corowa Rutherglen will welcome Albury to John Foord Oval with mixed emotions knowing that if the Tigers go on a rampage, things may not look pretty. CoachTerry Burgess will be “schooling” his young charges this week to limit Tiger opportunities to score. Myrtleford and North Albury should provide an interesting insight as to how both sides will go looking forward. The Saints played a great

Albury City big winners

season opener, as did North Albury and both were defeated in their round two clashes. Yarrawonga play their first J.C. Lowe oval game this weekend, when they host Wangaratta. The Magpies won the opening game before going down to the Tiger powerhouse last Saturday. Yarrawonga after a convincing win in round one didn’t look all that assertive in their clash with Raiders on a ground they aren’t always comfortable on. Yarrawonga will welcome back inspirational captain Tim Cooper and his presence should be enough to ensure the Magpies will be shouting the first round of drinks at the Brendan Fevola Bar. An interesting round with no guarantees. Round two results: Albury 13-8 (86) d Wangaratta 8-8 (56); Yarrawonga 12-9 (81) d Wodonga Raiders 6-5 (41); North Albury 16-10 (106) d Lavington 20-11 (131); Wodonga 11-12 (78) d Corowa-Rutherglen 7-7 (49); Wangaratta 18-12 (120) Myrtelford 11-8 (74).

ALBURY City were big winners in their round three Senior Women Albury Wodonga Football Association Clash. City defeated Hotspurs 9-1. In other games Melrose defeated Albury United 4-1, St Pats were too strong for Wangaratta 3-1 and Boomers beat Myrtleford 4-1. Cobram and Wodonga Diamonds both had byes.
