Backyard ideas for under $500

A great project to complete for under $500 is building a fire pit. Fire pits are one of the best DIY projects to enhance and change how you utilise your outdoor area, creating an instant feature that brings light and heat to your outdoor area. Use concrete blocks to start constructing the wall around the pit.

Backyard ideas for under $1,000

Whether it’s a muddy area up the side of your house, a frequently walked path in the backyard, or additional kerbside appeal for your front door access, a step-stone path is a home project you can easily DIY.

To create a stepping stone pathway at home, use the Adbri Masonry Euro Stone 600 x 400mm paver that features a smooth, lightly textured surface finish providing both slip resistance and an elegant look.

Backyard ideas for under $3,000

Paving is the perfect way to freshen up the backyard and create a low maintenance, multi-functional area that can be appreciated by the whole family and enjoyed day and night. Depending on the size of your backyard, updating the entertainment area pavers is a great option as it extends the livability of your space and acts as an investment project. When undertaking this project, you

will need to ensure you pick the right product for your paving project.

To create a premium look, use the Adbri Masonry Euro Honed concrete paver, which is manufactured on a stateof-the-art imported Italian paving machine before being honed and then treated with a light short blast. This process exposes the paver’s natural stones, creating a natural aesthetic with a distinctive surface texture.

Backyard ideas for under $4,000

A healthy budget will go a long way in terms of project ideas and making a standout feature in your backyard. It’s a matter of having a clear plan and sticking to a DIY-friendly project that can deliver cost-effective results.

Building retaining walls with plants and built-in seating is a great functional project that serves as a statement piece in the backyard and an investment in the home.

HOW DID THE RBA GET ITS MESSAGE SO WRONG?

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and its Governor Dr Philip Lowe have borne much of the blame for the woes of mortgage holders who have weathered a 3.5 per cent rise in official interest rates over the past 12 months.

And the RBA kicked an own goal when one of its board members, Ian Harper, admitted they “did a terrible job” in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, balancing its dual mandate of being responsible for the stability of the Australian financial system and keeping inflation within its target of two to three per cent.

“Both of those things led us to be extremely cautious,” he said.

“With hindsight, excessively cautious in how we set interest rates during that time.”

Meanwhile, deputy governor Michele Bullock conceded the RBA’s crucial interest rate messaging as it lowered the cash rate to 0.1 per cent during the pandemic was “garbled”.

For most of 2021, the RBA repeatedly stated: “The Board will not increase the cash

rate until actual inflation is sustainably within the two to three per cent target range. For this to occur, wages growth will have to be materially higher than it is currently. This will require significant gains in employment and a return to a tight labour market. The Board does not expect these conditions to be met until 2024 at the earliest.”

Then, in May 2022, with inflation surging, mainly due to the global economic impact of Russia invading Ukraine, the RBA announced the first official interest rate hike since 2010, lifting the cash rate by 25 basis points to 0.35 per cent. It is now 3.6 per cent.

Ms Bullock also admitted the RBA had got it wrong: “I will accept … that the message got garbled. People latch on to a date … and even now that we are raising interest rates, they still want us to put a date on when we are going to stop doing it.”

Whether the RBA lifts rates again next month will depend on the March quarterly inflation figures released on Tuesday.
