Do you spend too much time trying to buy the “cheap” home renovating materials.
1 Your best way is to buy the best of what you need. Is to buy good quality home renovating materials. Measure twice,cut once. Quantify what you need, then add some extra of products, in order, to cover breakages.
2 Take concrete, rather than labouriously,mixing for a driveway yourself : it will pay to buy a load of pre-mixed concrete from a mini-mix home delivered.
3 One might get some materials, by Ebay/ Graysonline/Trading Post, auction houses and garage sales.
4 I like to grow out my own garden bushes, this can save heaps. For me, this can save me thousands a year, when I renovate several home gardens.
5 You can always buy materials in bulk and have it home delivered. This saves both time and money.
6 Buy furniture as a complete home package, from a good discount store like Fantastic Furniture.
7 I note, cleaning up second hand materials, is usually counter productive, as your labour is too valuable, to be cleaning bricks or removing nails from timber.
8 Buy your garden mulch, in bulk from the council, on a home delivered basis.
9 For the garden sculpture, one might assess stuff from the Hard Rubbish.
10 Home Garage sales and Sunday markets are great for home accessories and home feature items.
11 I find my discounts by managing time, by buying at shops like Bunnings, or Home Depot. A one stop home hardware shop where I can buy everything I need.
12 Making your own curtains, blinds, accessories from fabric bought at the Spotlight store.

Given one factor that might be holding MANY people back from renovating is the cost, I note some budget ideas.
1 Subdivide your home renovating project into small achievable pieces.
2 Prioritise these pieces, into high impact renovation ideas and lower impact value ideas.
3 Establish a TEAM of Tradespeople and Professionals who work regularly, with you on your projects. Initially, one might consider the Grey Army or Jims
4 Discover rebates and discounts on Insurance, with your Insurance Broker.
5 Discover Bonuses and discounts with your Bank, via a reputable Mortgage broker.
6 Establish Property Mangement discounts and bonuses with your Property manager.
7 Negotiate Bonuses and discounts with your Real Estate agent: like sharing the cost of advertising.
8 Agree certain rebates and bonuses with your professional Property Staging manager.
In these ways, a property renovator or property investor, can achieve major advantages, between 20% and 40%, not FREE, but good savings here. Potentially, you can build an enterprise, that will secure your financial future !!!
9 By dealing with your TEAM, regularly, offer them a CASH bonus for finding good deals!
10 Why would all these professional services be able to qoute at a discount to you ?
Well I advocate with them, as I give them return and continuous work, this cuts their marketing costs. Ideally, if marketing was costing them 25 % of sales, they can afford to give a 25% discount ! Works for me. Most big deals are carefully checked against Internet sources for competitive qoutes.

Why should I be Renovating a Home?

While some families will be financially secure through salaried work, many will find this a risky strategy. The economy wide turmoil of recent years has alerted many that jobs come and go. Companies too grow, prosper and decline!! The likelihood of one doing well, in the Stock market is also risky, as markets can be volatile. Some wags renamed the stockmarket, the Shockmarket. Consider, that there are heaps of people ahead of an individual share investor. Some call them “Insiders” , like Accountants, Lawyers, Executives, Politicans perhaps ? The general public, like you and me are often behind in the company information.
How about an inheritance ? Apparently, USA research studies reveal that close to 90 % of people who rely on an inheritance are suprised at how modest they can be!!
Most of us won’t be currency traders, commodity traders, or massively profitable business types.
In Australia, the personal home can be one area to build real capital and provide for your financial future: and its easy. Don’t we all know that the Aged Pension is about half what you need to live on : and it will be falling in real terms dramatically from2016 onwards!! Renovate your home. This is where I concentrate my efforts. I hope you will seize the opportunity too!!!

Its remarkably, easy to be the home renovating game.
