Well I’m here to tell you that it is possible to renovate for wealth and still enjoy life; and it definitely doesn’t have to be a huge drama or stress fest like what you see on those popular TV shows.

Have you researched your ideal type of property to renovate but are now wondering about researching the important stuff surrounding suburbs?
Maybe you’ve already started your research, and have honed-in on a particular suburb. It has nice parks, the neighbours seem lovely, it’s close to good schools, and there’s no giant factories being plonked anywhere.
Wait, are you buying this house for yourself to live in or as a house-flipping, money-making machine?
Investing to renovate and investing to live are two different things. When I talk about making it personal, I don’t mean the fluffy “will my kids enjoy this backyard?” type of personal.
What I’m talking about is the personal that will click in perfectly with the rest of your renovating for profit goals.

Are you ready to get your hands dirty but not sure where to start?
Do you have a renovation vision but not sure how to translate that to dollars?
Is the thought of calculating making your head spin?
One of the most important steps is finding your buyers. Why? Because once you know who you’re selling to, you can design a product that fits them.
In this case it’s your renovation project.
It’s pretty obvious from all those renovation shows on TV that a good renovation can reap some serious benefits.
But the idea with parting with a big chunk of your budget can be pretty scary at first.
Especially if you haven’t got a clue about how much it’s all really going to cost.
Before you run away, I have some good news. It’s possible and actually fairly straight forward to work out the cost of your renovations without losing your marbles. I have a whole bunch of checklists and resources in my Rapid Renovation Formula that you can keep on hand when doing your budget calculations to make sure that you don’t miss anything. They’re also super handy to pull out once you’re actually doing the renovations, so that you can make sure you are on track.
But before I freak you out with the million different things you should consider, there are three main ones you should look at that will help get the ball rolling.

Louise and David ran away seven years ago from the city to take a leap of faith and purchase a gorgeous piece of land in the country between Adelong and Gundagai on the western slopes of the Snowy Mountains. Highfield Farm and Woodlands is a 820 acre property with two-thirds of the property under a conservation covenant protecting the critically endangered Box Gum Grassy Woodland and one-third is a small-scale farm combining ethical and sustainable farming practices. They fell in love with land BUT not the house so they set about rebuilding this weathered to wonderful house into a rustic luxury getaway - an Eco-retreat!

There are so many things to think about when you are choosing windows for your home. But the first thing you need to ask yourself is....
Am I replacing existing windows or working within an existing structure?
OR
Am I doing an extension or new build?
AND the answer really matters!!!!!! The details and elements that you need to consider vary depending on what your answer is. IF you are one of those that are saying both then you have two sets of guides that you will need to consider.
Next you need to think about some key elements such as privacy, ventilation, light .... the list goes on!!!
Good news is that I have you covered as I sat down with David from Cottons Glass and Alspec to discuss all the practical and design considerations, you can listen to all his top tips and my questions for him below in Reno Radio!

Before you jump on the idea, there are some really important things you should consider first. As tempting as it may be to bypass the agent and save thousands of dollars in commission – dollars that will stay in your pocket – there’s quite a bit of homework that needs to be done first.
After all, real estate agents are in business because they have the skills and the resources to sell your property – and sell it fast.
So, what’s the first thing you have to do if you decide to try your hand at being a self-agent?

You wouldn’t jump into the actual renovation before getting your business stuff sorted, right? Well, it’s the same principle with your support network. Once your paperwork and business side of things are secure, then you can roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty on-site.
So how do you select your hands-on guys or gals that help you with the physical side of the renovation?

If there is one thing I love as much as renovating, it is selling! I am so passionate about helping people get their property over the line faster and for more money.
So many people say, "Yes, I know I need to declutter", "I know I need to clean that", and "Yeah, yeah I know I need to de-personalise", but not everyone pays specific and concentrated attention to the little things.
So what are these little things?

How are you going to make sure that your renovation project stays on time and on budget? Is there a way to ensure that everyone on your worksite is on the same page at any given time? What are you going to do if something doesn’t go the way you planned?

Today I wanted to talk to you a little about what goes on during renovation game play – and what you can do to save a few pennies during that time.
So, have you already got fixed quotes for all of your tradies and their scope of work? Is every hour of their time accounted for before you even pick up the shovel?
When you aren’t relying on a fixed price, the cost of having a tradie onsite can escalate pretty quickly if you don’t keep a close eye on it. And the biggest way those costs will spiral out of control is by taking up too much of your tradies’ precious time.

Auctions can be a lot more nerve wracking than and fast-paced than a simple sale. That’s why it’s good to know the process, even if you aren’t looking at buying a property at auction right now. Because once your business kicks off, your next renovation project might end up being one you buy at auction.

Now, this isn’t some sort of sci-fi gimmick. Virtual styling doesn’t mean your house is filled with furniture that has been hologram projected. I don’t think technology has come that far yet. Plus, although it’s a pretty cool idea, you will probably end up with buyers more interested (or freaked out) in the technology than in your property. And that might be a lasting first impression – just not the type of impression you are after.

Are you looking at adding a new kitchen to a property but not sure what kind of design will really wow your buyers?
Is the property just ripe for an extension but you can’t decide where to draw the line between overdoing it and under-delivering?
When a renovation is done right, potential buyers will walk in and be blown away. The upgrades will scream “buy me!”. And that will meet sweet profits for you.
But how do you make sure that you find that sweet point between over-splurging and under-whelming?

You’ve put in a lot of effort into starting up this renovating for wealth business. So, I’m assuming that you wouldn’t want all that hard work to go to waste, and that you probably have the intention of continuing to renovate for profit long after your first project.
If that’s the case, do you know how to keep it going? Would you be able to snap up property after property quickly to keep your business running smoothly and making you profit?
If you take too long to find your next project, the costs of running your business as well as your normal day-to-day living might eat into the profits of that last project. And that’s not something you want.

There could be few things more devastating than when you take your property to the market or when you get a post-renovation valuation, and they turn around and say to you, "sorry that is not a habitable space".
WHAT?! It's got walls, it's got windows... But there is more to it than that - there are legislations around how high our ceilings need to be to be deemed habitable.

You’ve planned out that physical space perfectly. You know the exact finishes you’ll be adding and have a pretty solid idea of how your ideal buyers will be using the space you’ve updated.
But what about the feel of the place? Have you thought about how the space will make people feel? Will they get emotionally attached to it?
I know I have said that you shouldn’t get emotionally attached to a place. And that’s still true. But what you want is for your potential buyers to get hooked on it. Because when you make that emotional connection, you make that sale at the price that you want.
What does it all come down to, then?

I’m a huge believer in the importance of finding your patch, honing your area that you’re going to focus – laser-focus on – to find the properties that will continue to be available for a set period of time for you to renovate.
I have people that ask me all the time, “Naomi, why? Why focus? Why not just look and see what the market brings to you no matter where it is?” There’s a pile of reasons. The first one is that it makes it easier to say no. When you have properties that come past you that might be a perfect fit, if you don’t have a honed boundary around where you’re going to be renovating, you’ll find yourself going, “I could maybe do it. Maybe not.” If you have a delineated space or a delineated area with boundaries of where you’re going to be renovating, it is very easy to say no.

As you all know, because many of you have heard me talk before about the impact of visual boredom in our lives and in our work spaces.
And how important it is that we’re stimulated from a visual and environmental perspective to ensure that we increase our ability to thrive and be creative in our workspaces.
Which, let’s face it, has a huge impact on our bottom line. Today, I want to talk to you about that. To do that, I’m going to give you my top tips on little things you can change in your space to decrease your visual boredom.
I’m not suggesting that every week you go change things about. If that’s what works for you, then go for it.
What I’m actually talking about is about every six or 12 months looking at having a small overhaul or a small makeover of the space that you’re spending the most time in, whether it’s living or whether it’s working.

So many people email me saying that they’re in the startup phase of their business or their micro-business and they’re working from home.
They don’t have a lot of space and they even share their office space with their kids and their spouse or it’s the study nook at home. They want to know how they can have an amazing space in this situation.
It is totally doable and there’s a little bit of a twist on it. I have this notion that I call an Office in a Box. In many cases, a lot of the entrepreneurs that we work with in our Space Medicine Membership, the kids go off to school and they literally start working on their dining room table, or on their breakfast bar.
They find that to be able to create a space that nurtures them and helps them grow and thrive is a little transient.

One of the things that I get asked about a lot is how I make an amazingly beautiful space and, at the same time, how do I make it highly functional.
Many of us in our businesses – maybe you’re working from home; you may be working from the kitchen bench or you may be working in an office space similar to my office here. We are often asked how is how we strike that balance.
One of the biggest things people comment to me about is when they’re doing some big visioning or when they’re doing some big planning and they want to be writing all over the walls or having post-it notes everywhere, but at the same time, they really don’t want that terrible look of a chalkboard that can get dusty sometimes and not always look as fresh and amazing as when we started.

Renovating for profit and renovating to make money has been highly popularised in the media. Many Australians are absolutely god damn in love with renovating to make money. I can absolutely understand why.
I need to put a caveat in there that it’s not everybody’s cup of tea. It is hard work and can take some time. If you don’t have the right tools, team and formula, it can sometimes not fruit the results that you’re after. However, with the right tools, team and formula, it can not only be a great way to financial freedom, there are some other really cool advantages to it that renovating in a short time period – buying renovating and selling or revaluing to have it leased out – can have over some of the other property strategies.
Today, I’m going to go through those advantages with you.

There’s three things I want you to consider in regards to your floor plan.
The first thing is knowing who your market is. I want you to know everything about who the market is for the property that you’re renovating. Whether it’s to sell or lease in the end, I want you to know what their needs are. Are they down-sizers? Are they families that need larger living areas and an indoor/outdoor space? Are they young professionals that need streamline, modern living and a sophisticated entertaining space?
You need to know absolutely everything about your market because that will then allow you to feed into step number two: knowing how they’re going to live in each and every one of those spaces. Once you know who your market is and you know their needs and their wants, you can actually look at the floor plan of your property and work out how they’re going to live in each and every one of those spaces.
What are the functions of those spaces? What are they going to need in those spaces to make them ideal for them? How are you going to deliver that? Either with the way you lay your furniture out or the actual floor plan of the property itself.

Many people I know go and look at how many bedrooms a place has, how many bathrooms it has, what condition the kitchen’s in. These are really, really important things. But, today I want to share with you three of the most not looked at things and three of the most important things to look at when you’re doing a property inspection.
As I just mentioned, lots of people are looking at the number of bedrooms, the number of bathrooms, the condition of the property as well as how big the spaces are. These are all really important things. In fact, I use a multiple hundred point checklist when I’m doing a property inspection to make sure that I don’t miss any important steps.
What I also do are these three very left out things that I want to share with you today. That’s actually what is happening around the edges of the property. What is happening outside the boundaries of the property, which so many people miss or overlook. They're outside, they’re so excited and can’t wait to get in and start to go through their checklist, but they forget to do three very important things.
💗 Want to know 3 quick & easy ways you can Increase the value of your property (whether you’re selling, renting or having it valued)?
We’ll show you the simple strategies you can use to find hidden cash in your property, and the best part is, you can do it all yourself!

What’s happening in the market is always a hot topic. I was lucky enough to sit down with Mark Kentwell, principal at PRD Nationwide Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, to hear exactly what is happening in the Perth property market.

When I say a lead, what I mean is you’ll find, once you start renovating, that leads or prospective properties or projects start to leap across your desk once you do a good lead generation funnel. It’s really important – because time is money – that you quality check – or QA – these leads that are coming past your desk to make sure that they are the right ones for you.
I actually use a 35-point checklist of quality checks to make sure that any lead that comes across my desk is worth me going to have a look at.
Seventeen of these things on this checklist are things that I check with the local council to which the property belongs. I want to share with you today four of those really important things.

Have you worked out what your property patch is? Have you honed-in on the suburbs that fit your goals?
If you have, that’s fantastic and you’re ready to move onto the next step. If not, have a look at my last blog post to help you figure out your patch.
So, you’ve figured out your patch – the neighbourhood is perfect for your market, the properties are within your price range… It’s all looking well and good.
But which property do you choose?
If there’s more than one property on the market, how do you know which one is the best pick? It’s like a game show: do you choose door #1 or door #2? Door one could hold the ultimate island getaway, or it could be a new microwave. Both are nice, but the first prize definitely takes the cake.
In today’s post I’ll take you through your variables, to help you work out your best renovation strategy.

You know what? I found in some cases the budgets and costings that they have on these shows can be really unquoted and make it really hard for everyday people to estimate and budget when they’re quoting for their own renovations.
Experience has actually shown me that renovators that complete renovations similar to those on TV, the budgets actually come in up to three times more than what appears to be quoted on some of these TV renovating shows. In fact, I worked with a client once who was trying to replicate a bathroom that they’d seen on one of these shows. It turns out that their budget came in $24,000 above the budget that was quoted. As you can imagine, this can be really confusing and it can leave a lot of renovators in a position where they have under budgeted, which greatly affects their end product. Or means, even worse, that they don’t get to the end.
I want to share with you today some of my top tips for making sure that your budgets are on track, on target and are going to give you the product that you’re after.

Recently I talked about how to create a renovation timeline and stick to it. Now I want to talk about the money side of things.
If you’re already at the “pick up the tools and go” stage, you would have a pretty detailed budget in place already. If you don’t have a budget set out, please don’t jump the gun and start knocking down walls. Instead, take a look at my previous post on four ways to work out your renovation costs first.
Now that you have your budget all worked out, how are you going to filter in any changes? What if it turns out you need to replace the old piping because it is rusting? Or perhaps you decide to extend the splashback to the ceiling – where will the money come from and how will it fit in with the rest of your budget?
All of these are questions you might come across as you get further and further into your renovating project.
So you have to know how to stick to your budget, but be flexible at the same time.

I’m a believer in goal setting all around. But the really important thing that I wanted to talk to you about today is the three very important tips that I use when I’m setting goals around my property and my renovations.
The three things that I always consider when I’m goal setting around my renovation is I always make sure, number one, that whatever I’m setting is aligned with my overall strategy. I don’t like just to have goals that are based maybe on a new fad or a new publication that’s come out. I like to make sure that they’re based and perfectly aligned with the strategy that I’m using to govern my renovation business. That’s tip number one.
Tip number two, I always make sure that they’re time bound. I always make sure that not only are they practical and relatively achievable, but I also make sure that they’re within a time period that’s going to push me a little. Remember, if you’re feeling comfortable and you’re inside your comfort zone, then you’re not pushing yourself far enough.
Tip number three – and this is my most important one – is I never try and eat a big, hairy frog all on its own. I always make sure that my goals are broken down.

You’ve completed the hard yards; you have enough research to fill a library, and your budget estimates would make your old math teacher proud.
You finally have your perfect property. You’ve nailed down what your renovations are going to be. The shabby old bathroom is getting an update – those 60’s tiles are due for retirement, and the green accents are shudder-worthy. The back veranda is also getting makeover – from old-granny-on-the-rocking-chair to modern outdoor family space, complete with bi-fold doors for added flexibility when entertaining.
And to finish it all off, you already know the exact natural elements and finishes you’ll be putting in that will be simple irresistible for all the Tom, Dick and Joes in your target market.
Now, it’s renovation time!
So, how long are all of these tweaks and upgrades going to take? Which tradies are you calling in first? What’s your back-up plan if the plumber isn’t available that week? Is your intricately woven renovation plan going to start unravelling if the tile delivery is late?

I want to talk to you about one of the challenges that so many renovators have experienced over the years. That is knowing what paint to put on top of what surface.
We all know that some paints – some oil bases can’t go over water bases, some water bases can’t go over oil base. Especially when it comes to older homes, to our doors and our trims and our sills, we find that over the years there are all sorts of things being painted on these. There’s been different layers of highly inappropriate paint often applied.
What can sometimes happen is you can apply your paint – which you think is appropriate – over the top, but years and years – sometimes decades – ago, someone has applied the wrong paint. It can forever destruct and effect what you’re putting on top.

Are you ready to begin your renovation journey but worried about going over your budget?
Are you dreaming about a certain look for your property, but not sure how much it’s actually going to cost you?
Do you keep tossing and turning, worrying about whether you have under-estimated the cost of your project?
Almost every single renovation project ever undertaken, if not every single one, has had a budget. Everybody has a limit on how much they are willing to spend on their home.
This rings even more true when it comes to renovating for wealth. The budget for a renovating for wealth project is generally a lot tighter than a normal renovating for self-enjoyment one. Why? Because at the end of the day, it’s all about getting bang for your buck.

Many of you have heard me speak previously about the importance of having a honed area or a patch that we’ve focused our property search on.
I’m a big believer in life that things not only need to work financially, but they need to work from a lifestyle perspective. If things are hard, if things aren’t fun, generally we won’t do well at it and we will also find it too hard to continue.
Don’t get me wrong. I don’t think that everything should be super, super easy or is super easy. But not long term, to have longevity in a renovating for wealth business, it needs to fit in and suit your lifestyle or the lifestyle that you actually want to create.
After you’ve honed your patch, it’s so important that you fit it in with your strategy or you have a strategy.
There are a pile of things that go and weave into what makes up your strategy in a certain patch. The one I want to talk to you about today is your own variables. That’s right. You are accounted for in regard to the strategy that you’re going to be taking when you’re renovating.
