DIY Reno Challenge
Who doesn’t love a good reno? Ok, so probably not all of us. However, there are some DIY projects that even the least interested can master. The best part? These can add appeal for buyers and renters coming through your bright and shiny ‘new’ home.

Here are some of our favourite, and easy, DIY projects you can tackle this weekend.

Take a picture (and hang it)
Picture ledges are all the craze right now. The perfect blend of hanging artwork and functional shelf, these thin ledges create a perfect place to place all of the beautiful photos you want to share in your home.

Bathroom upgrades
Once you go matte, you won’t go back. Matte black tapware is simply everywhere right now, creating a truly luxe and modern look in your home. Taps, handles, showerheads and even sinks are all fair game right now.

New door, who’s this?
You will have everyone asking, “who lives here?”. Install a gorgeous new feature door to your front door for added street appeal and showing off your home’s personal flair. From stylized timber, to bold colours, there is a door for every home’s personality.

Pull the blinds
Curtains can easily become outdated, but they are also easy to replace and often inexpensive. Why not rethink your current window furnishings and how a new sheer curtain could bring new life to your living room.

Paint, paint, paint
Everyone loves to hate painting. Everyone except your walls. A fresh coat of paint might be the most laborious DIY job but can add such a wow factor to your home. Whether you are simply freshening up with a light bright colour, or going bold with a feature wall, your walls (and guests) will simply love the new look.

Switch it up
They aren’t always the first thing on a DIY project list, but switching out old or even boring light switches with modern new styles can create a subtle upgraded look in your home.

Groom the garden
Gardens can really set the tone of your home, and while we don’t all have acres to play with, a well maintained and groomed garden can create such a beautiful feeling. Replace no longer flowering plants, pull out your weeds, trim any overgrowing plants, and freshen up your gardens with new mulch.


Are you looking for more than an easy DIY? Or perhaps you want the fully finished home? Either way we can support you in finding your next property.

Not to mention our decades of experience can ease the selling process for you and get you on your way.
