Buying a home is by far the biggest investment most people will make. With the ever-increasing cost of buying a home, many decide to stay and renovate. Or if buying for the first time, some turn to less expensive older properties with renovations or extensions in mind, saving on stamp duty and other buying costs. In fact, according to the Australian Financial Review, Australia expects to see easing of construction costs later in 2023, making planning a renovation now even more appealing.
Renovating can add invaluable lifestyle enhancements whilst increasing your property value, such as changing the floor plan to make it more functional, improving or reinstating the character of your home, generating street appeal, and improving energy efficiency. By adding in strategic design, Interior Designers can ensure a kitchen renovation, bathroom renovation, or a small tweak to the floor plan increases functionality and brings your home up to date with finishes that stand the test of time.
It’s not just renovating that can add value. Cosmetic refurbishments such as painting and the choice of soft furnishings, furniture and layout, can really make a big impact.

Ordering expensive items life a sofa, window treatments or flooring in the wrong size, aesthetic or colour can be a costly mistake.

The best Interior Designers will be able to make the most of your budget, giving advice on where you should invest and where you can compromise.
