This week was settlement on a much loved period renovated home. I renovated it 23 years ago and it is probably due for the next upgrade installment. I'm in the business of renovating so why did I sell this one relatively unrenovated.? Cash flow. Unfortunately the numbers stopped adding up a few years back and I didn't refactor the costs to repair and run the property as an investment anymore. The only thing that was holding me back on selling was raw emotion and bad habit of hoarding. So what happened? I took a big deep breath and decided to sell to free up some old habits, some old emotions and create a new future. I lost an old friend this week and I have great memories. It was never the perfect house but it was mine and took me from the 90's to the 20's comfortably. Thanks to our projects and completing the past.

Beta testers required :-) I'd love to have this community put it through it's paces. It's free for us to use and create as a starting point for your renovation. I'm here for any questions you have. 🫠

Hi to all our new members. Great to have you here. Let's all welcome Mani 😃

We often investigate healthy diet options - swapping out the greasy takeaway for something healthy. I was recently inspired by a new home, where the owners applied the same technique for their renovation. Swap out the toxic fatty and ugly materials for something easier to digest, breathe and grow around. Got me looking into the Red List and researching the guidelines and references available to us all. The result is the Healthy Home guide which I have put into a new reference set of materials for your use.

A client asked me this week - what if I wanted to transition into Construction? The actual words were - I'm sick of IT. What ideas and courses would you suggest I do for moving into your industry? Anyone here suggest Online / In Person or other books / methods for moving into Construction from Tech?
