These institutes are co-lo cated with organisations such as CSIRO, Telstra Health, WentWest and Psych Central, providing an all-important springboard to foster new ideas and inspire innovative research collaborations.

iQ comprises 43,000m² of state-of-the-art health, education and research infrastructure and business space, along with 2,000m² of retail and lifestyle facili ties.

Western Sydney Univer sity Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor Barney Glover AO, said iQ is a unique research ecosystem that is all about forging

new solutions to some of the nation’s most pressing and persistent healthcare challenges.

“Westmead Innovation Quarter is a major commit ment by Western Sydney University. Together with Charter Hall we have devel oped a ground-breaking research and development facility that draws together leading scientists, clinicians and researchers who can partner with communities, industry and government to deliver unparalleled health and medical outcomes, as well as new commercialisa ble devices and platforms,” said Professor Glover.

“Set within Australia’s largest concentration of hospital and healthcare services, iQ will elevate Westmead’s status as one of the world’s most advanced health and innovation precincts.”

FINANCES ARE ON EVERYONE’S MIND AT THE MOMENT

Amid all the doom and gloom about rising inflation, interest rates going up, hacking scams and fears about the direction of the domestic and global econ omies, it’s understandable to feel anxious about the financial future.

There are no simple remedies for how to deal with rising stress levels and it’s difficult to lock yourself in a cocoon and try and avoid negative news reports about the economy.

Some people will offer suggestions for improving your wellbeing such as regular exercise and recreation to burn off stress and tension, healthy eating, good work/life balance, getting enough sleep for seven to eight hours each night, seek ing serenity through prayer or mediation and getting things off your chest with a good listener.

At Bell Partners this economic rollercoaster. One is to undergo a financial health check, which is some thing where we can offer assis tance by making an assessment of your actual financial situation. Without considering the value of your investments or any property, we can look at whether your household income is covering all of your current expenses. If it is, you should consider yourself in good financial health and have nothing to really worry about.

But if it is not, look at your expenses for food, housing, healthcare, essential transportation (to and from work) and luxuries and see where you

may be able to tighten the belt. Look at your bank statements and bills and see what you are spending money on.

Most people are shocked to see the evidence that their wants have become needs and their luxuries have become essentials.

Do you need to buy lunch every day or could you make sandwiches at home and take them to work? Could you cut back on buying coffees or eating out regularly?

While cuts can be made, there are of course important finan cial considerations such as your children’s education and saving for retirement.

Hopefully, despite the many economic challenges, your financial health is good. But don’t hesitate to reach out to Bell Partners if you need advice.

INTRODUCING YOU TO YOUR REAL ESTATE SPECIALISTS

Melissa Jerzyna – Penrith

Melissa Jerzyna, a Senior Property Manager for LJ Hooker Penrith, has one rule when leasing property and that is to place tenants she would happily have living in her own home.

Her criteria has helped the agency to build a management portfolio of more than 600 properties.

“It is very important for everyone to match the right person with the right property,” Ms Jerzyna said.

“We also treat both landlords and tenants the same. At the end of the day, without respect for both parties you have kaos and small issues manifest into larger problems. Mutual respect is the only foundation on which to build solid relationships.”

Ms Jerzyna started working in real estate straight out of high school more than 20 years ago. With a passion for all things connected to the property market, she took an entry-level position as a receptionist. Just a year later, she was promoted to property officer and later into a management position.

Ms Jerzyna joined LJ Hooker Penrith 12 years ago and has won the network’s title of NSW Property Manager of the Year four times in the past five years. She has twice been the recipient of LJ Hooker’s International Property Manager of the Year. She is also a member of the prestigious LJ Hooker Captain’s Club which recognises the network’s top performers.

Ms Jerzyna’s day-to-day tasks include accounts, business development, building portfolios and managing staff.

“I am very big on organisation, so everything runs pretty seamlessly”, she said.

Melissa Jerzyna

Why did you become involved in the real estate industry?

Always have been from my early finance days the transition happened when I was looking to supplement my income with weekend work to feed a growing family.

Why should people choose you over other agents?

Close to 51 years dealing with people and their property needs. I don’t have all the answers, but I come very close.

What has been your biggest ever real estate achievement?

My biggest achievement is UNDERSTANDING my client’s needs/exit strategy, ensuring that I can get them to the finish line with the right result at that point in time. Isn’t that what it’s all about!

What should people do to ensure their home sells or rents for the best possible price?

There are several things.

- Present the property to the best of their ability and financial budget

- Do their own market research, its far easier nowadays than in the past

- Stand back and view their property from a BUYERS/TENANTS perspective.
