Today, I offer the following ideas. In order, for your project to be super successful try detailed planning.
Any time spent in planning will be rewarded about ten fold!!!
1 Collect a “scrapbooking” approach of collating excellent ideas for your project. One might collect from free stuff from magazines, newspapers, home company brochures, photos, building products company brochures. If one collects over a period of time you will have a good resource to draw upon : when you consult your home designer/Builder/Architect.
2 Attend home display villages, and new land Estates to see what is currently being built.
3 Attend City based Home Exhibitions, like the Herald Sun Home show, the RACV Home show or Home Ideas Show.
4 Research specialist shops like window companies, Door companies, Timber merchants, Hardware shops, Kitchen companies. I think you will be suprised what is available.
5 Read widely, on the area, as there are just heaps of books and Ebooks directly, related to your area of interest for a project.
6 Ask your network. I think you might be suprised, just how many have built and re-built their wealth through property.
7 Ideas, for the outdoor room or garden can be collected from inspiration, by visiting the Australian Open Gardens Scheme, raises money for charity too.
8 Me personally, I spent years watching “Renovation Rescue” and “Burke’s Backyard”, then one day I said, I will do this!

Today, I make many suggestions where one can DIY and other cost savings areas. Currently, there are available D.I.Y., Kitchens, Bathrooms, Decks, Kit Homes and Furniture. These are available from stores like Bunnings, Ikea, Spotlight, HomeDepot.
One can also D.I.Y. the mortgage, insurances and Banking. But what does that mean? Well, I suggest here one uses the Internet to research the BEST products for the field and even ask the market to tender for your needs. Such as, Ask the market to tender for your Mortgage.
If one runs your project as an “Owner builder” thus taking on the job of D.I.Y. Project Manager : How much can I save ?
This should work out at around 30 % of the value of the project, plus the likely Stamp duty saving , say 3% !!!
Thus, if you have the inclination one can DIY your own projects and proceed with confidence, even if you can only anticipate a flatter market.
