ALFRESCO DREAMING FROM AVERAGE BACKYARD TO COOL OASIS With access to nature on our doorsteps, it’s no surprise that Australians love spending time outside.

An increasing demand to enjoy outdoor living at home has turned the humble backyard into an al fresco lifestyle dream.

Homeowners investing in this multi-functional space are finding it offers a variety of benefits that provide a long- term contribution to their property investment and, more importantly, their lifestyle.

Creative outdoor rooms provide an additional entertainment space as well as a fun environment for children to play safely. Marrying the indoors and out with clever decking, whether it be a smaller side deck, pool decking or a big, classic back verandah, provides a seamless transition between these two spaces. If you plan it right, this new space will become the favourite area for family and friends to reconnect.

Australia’s leading timber experts, Big River Group, provide some helpful tips on choosing a deck and making the most of your outdoor space.

Firstly, check if you need

approval from your local council As with most home improvements, before you set about installing a new deck it’s a good idea to investigate whether or not you’ll need council approval.

Create your own private oasis Think of your outdoor space as a blank canvas. Installing a timber

deck will allow the area to be used in most weather conditions.

Considering your deck’s purpose will help you decide its size.

How many people will it need to accommodate, and will you be adding a barbecue, furniture and some pots?

Maximise space and add value From a relaxing sanctuary to a pool area, decking is a great

opportunity to transform forgotten or underutilised areas into useful spaces. When located at the front of the property, a deck can make a grand entrance as well as wrap- around additional living space. If you don’t have a lot of space in your backyard, you can always build up or out, and create a raised entertaining area.

Accessorise to get the look A top tip for maximising the enjoyment factor of the outdoor environment is to create comfort by selecting the right outdoor furniture and accessories. The key criteria are; using products

that are made for the outdoors, creating connection between the pieces that stimulate conversation and togetherness, and lastly, selecting settings that are the right size for your space.

A great option for entertaining is blending formal tables and chairs with informal seating like garden walls with benches on top.

It creates extra spaces and allows you to adjust your entertaining for the occasion. Add finishing touches such as outdoor rugs and cushions that can easily be changed each year to keep the space looking fresh.

Gizzelle Powell - RE/MAX Lifestyle Marketing International Women’s Day is a day of solidarity for us all to celebrate the social, political, cultural and economic achievements of women. For me, this day acts as an opportunity to thank my family especially my husband for being supportive so I can do the job I love and be very good at it. Real estate is normally dominated by male but with hard work, female agents nowadays are given the same opportunity to succeed.

I have just recently come back from Queensland to accept two(2) major awards: RE/MAX International Hall of Fame Award and Chairman Award. Also, received six(6) Major Awards from Ratemyagent Agent of the Year Awards 2021 including Top 100 Agent in Australia.

I am grateful that through this job I can make a difference and help someone achieve their property goals. The joy of my clients when they have successfully bought or sold a property, this drives my passion even further.

Bianca Rossetto - Raine & Horne Penrith Really, you could say that I have been in Real Estate my whole life. I grew up in the Penrith area and started working for dad’s business when I was only 14.

Real Estate has changed a lot since I first started. There’s a lot more women in the industry now, I work in an office completely made up on women, except for dad of course!

I love my job and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I think it’s an advantage to be a woman in real estate. Women generally have a lot more empathy and that only helps me in dealing with people who are generally dealing with the biggest asset they will ever buy or sell.

Happy International Women’s Day!

Helen Fitzpatrick - Ray White Nepean Group I have been working in real estate for 35 years now, celebrating 25 of those years at Ray White Penrith.

I started my career as a Property Manager and now as a Senior Sales Consultant I believe I have the advantage of understanding the needs of both sides of real estate – Sales and Property Management.

I am very dedicated and enthusiastic as I love my job. I understand what “good service” means.

I know it doesn’t cost any more – it just takes a little more thought and attention to detail.

I have many happy customers and can provide you with testimonials to prove it.

Lori Howell - Raine & Horne Penrith

As a proud Licensed Class 1 Real Estate Agent and Stock & Station Agent, I thoroughly encourage other women to join the real estate industry. As International Women’s Day in Australia started back in 1928 we have come a long way and continued to grow. It is a day to celebrate women’s achievements and continue to encourage women to grow, strive for equality, inspire, motivate and continue to develop. For myself, I am proud of what I have achieved in my Real Estate career and continue to strive for betterment and continual growth. I love what I do in the real estate industry, meeting people, helping make dreams come true. On a personal note I have also achieved a lot being born and bred in the horse industry, I breed and show horses, am a horse judge on many different societies and the greatest achievement was judging at the Sydney Royal Easter Show. I have been competing at the Royal Estate Show for over 30 years having won many supreme championships with my home bred horses. Women have achieved a lot and will continue to do so.

I was raised by the strongest, smartest most inspirational business woman I know. Being a single mother it was important for her to build a life and design a career that provided success, prosperity and work life balance. It was seeing these values that inspired me to strive for my own success in my career. Women have risen above social norms over the years to become powerful & formidable forces in most professional industries. Real Estate for me was the perfect balance of my nurturing nature, helping guide my clients in selling and purchasing homes to welcome the next stage of their journey. I didn’t know this was for me until I met myself along the way by giving it a try. I’ve seen my strength rise with each challenge I embark on.

I feel fortunate to be growing and developing my career in a time where humanity is becoming the focus not gender.

We own our power, our possibilities and our promising futures! To all the beautiful women making life happen, never stop growing! You may be in the early stages forming your footprint in the world but be brave! You can achieve anything you set your mind to! Happy International Women’s day!

Peter was extremely professional and was always willing to answer any questions or hesitations we had. He kept us up to date every step of the way. He was reliable and always showed tremendous enthusiasm. I would highly recommend using Peter for any future listings Kalah - Seller - Glenmore Park

Peter was a pleasure to deal with in the purchase of my property. He was experienced and knowledgeable and responded quickly to all of our queries. Peter made the process of purchasing our house extremely easy as he guided us every step of the way.

Andrew - Buyer - Leonay

Pete was able to sell our house in extremely testing conditions in early Covid 19 days. He worked around the clock to bring plenty of potential buyers through our door when the market was in an uncertain place.

We couldn’t rate Pete highly enough.

BROKING BREAKDOWN

LOW INTEREST RATES WHAT YOU MUST WATCH OUT FOR

MARK STEVENSON BELLPARTNERS.COM

First the good news: Australia is getting on top of the Coronavirus with COVID cases dwindling and vaccination programs underway while the economy continues on its upward path with unemployment falling.

The not so good news if you are a homeowner is the Australian dollar continues to rise, which has led some economists to predict this may have an impact on interest rates.

As we recently noted in Broking Breakdown, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Governor Philip Lowe after the RBA board’s first board meeting of 2021 said he did not expect economic conditions to warrant an increase in official interest rates until at least 2024.

The RBA this week predictably

keep the cash rate on hold at the current record low of 0.10 per cent.

While official interest rates should not rise again any time soon, the Australian dollar’s continued upward movement has many questioning the RBA’s 2024 prediction.

If you watch the business segment on the nightly news, you will be familiar with the volatility of the financial markets who ride the daily economic roller coaster.

Money markets have been looking at what’s happening with the Australian economy and are starting to wonder if interest rates will start rising again before 2024.

During the month of February, the Australian dollar gained around 5 cents against the US

dollar. That would be great if you were able to travel overseas – but you can’t at the moment so the rising dollar is a potential threat to how much you will pay on your monthly mortgage repayments.

Mark’s Shout The low Coronavirus numbers have helped the country move out of recession with tens of thousands of jobs being created.

While there is always plenty of speculation on money markets about the direction of the economy and also interest rate movements (including interest rates on Australian government bonds), conditions for mortgage holders are generally stable with some of the lowest interest rates in history.
