Home renovating water efficiency measures

The expected move to pricing water by the Kilolitre will draw close attention to the price of water; in Victoria this is due from 1/07/2010. One can apply some  easy home renovating solutions to reduce your water bill.
1   Save 2,000 litres a year in the Kitchen, with aerated water taps.
2   Save 18,250 a year with efficient shower heads and short showers.
3   Save 5,000 litres in the garden with an efficient hand held spray nozzle.

4   Save 16,000 litres a year in the laundry with a frontloader washing machine.

5   Save 20,300 litres a year with an efficient Dual flush toilet system.
This gives grand total of 61,550 litres  saved year.
This represents around the daily allowance for a single person in the household.
Obviously, a close check of the Water Savings WELLS ratings is going to payoff handsomely for all your appliance puchases. I have recently, installed a watertank to capture the rain from the roof. I must consider connecting to the Water Closets, as this would be a massive saving. If I get excited, I might even install a grey water system to tend to the garden. This would include an underground agricultural pipe filtered watering system. Just installed the Front Loader washing machine, today.

Selected Design Ideas for Easy Home Renovating

Some of my favourite ideas are to

1   Build a Deck and establish an Outdoor room. It will enhance your living area and its great for entertaining. A concrete patio can be enhanced by tiling, a shade cloth and  garden furniture. An old deck might need cleaning, sanding and refinishing, to revitalize the color and protection of an old deck.

2   The front entrance makes a statement about your whole home. An imposing front door with stained glass or plain glass will enhance your internal  light. One can still have excellent security with a plastic break proof film.
3  Removing hallways or Entrance halls or excess internal walls, will allow for the trend to popular Open Plan living.
I find with some internal folding partition walls, you can have the best of both styles of living ; Open plan in Summer and Autumn, warm contained zonal living in the Winter and Spring. please consider!

Australia’s Population effect on stocks and Property!

Well this will be a hot topic, apparently in an election year this will become a more controversial issue. Increasingly, I expect that research and information on the topic will become available.  In recent years, the population policy has been bipartisan and thus no public discussion. But initially, one can surmise that population has been growing much faster than previously expected.  When the popular press, says we might have to” fight ones way through  to the water cooler”. Let one prosecute some of the facts.
1    Mr.Chris Evans, Minister for Immigration has announced “The Government is considering all options on the Immigration Programme.”

2    A new Minister of Population policy has been announced, being  Mr Tony Burke.
3    Mr. Abbott the Opposition Leader has announced a likely dramatic cut in immigration. Well “Strike me like a lizard drinking”.  The business community has instantly crueled this pitch.
4    The PM says, there are “legitimate” community concerns re the population pressures.
5    Whole groups of the population, have not been counted in the Official statistics, including New Zealanders (around 550,000), and International  Students atleast (580,000), tourists overstays. Figures from Prof. McDonald at ANU, but these are a year out of date. He has not noted the Tourist and business overstayers; by definition other overstayers are not counted.~

Design your investment home Property market ideas

Reading the popular press one will notice  all sorts of “reasons” why house prices are rising,
1   Immigration is above many expectations adding to the total population growth of 435,000 last year. While the resources states of QLD  and WA are the fastest growing, somewhat suprizingly, Victoria is also growing fast.

2   Melbourne, in Victoria had the fastest price rise with house values up 19% over 2009.
3   Some experts are now quoting returning expatriate workers are boosting the market. Readers will be familiar with this theme. Where, I claim some 900,000 Australians are working overseas. Given Australia is one of the fastest growing developed countries a fair portion must be expected to return, as Australian income tax has fallen and the A Dollar is up.

So much more FREE stuff from the free ebook.
4   Recently, some of the government plans to double public transport for instance is generating confidence in Victoria.

Latest home property market design ideas

Reading in “The Australian ” of the rising clearances in both values and volumes terms in every major Australian capital. What is really happening in the property market?  Well, Premier Bligh of Queensland, says “Enough is enough, wants to close the southern borders”.
Well make a cat laugh!  Wonder how well that will go?
Perhaps we dont know what is actually happening?
Lets consider some leading economists like BIS Shrapnel ‘s Robinson. His reports are bullish based on a new round of mining projects, based on rebounding commodity prices like Iron ore up 100%, Coal up 120% and a rosier outlook for the growth in the world economy, refer IMF.
Tanya Plibersek, Minister for Housing says ” The problem of a supply shortage in housing has been years in the making”. She would like to blame the previous government. Apparently, population and housing are hot button political areas, as PM Rudd has announced a new portfolio of population study {Mr Tony Burke}.
My view is State government have been under estimating the population growth and under providing capital works, like roads, hospitals, railway stations. Thus buyers are “crowding ‘ into the established suburbs.!
