This is the third episode of Who are the people in my Neighbourhood, where we meet Leanne from LCN Consulting to talk about the top three ways she can help Business Owners to grow their business.
Leanne is not just a Business Coach, Leanne also knows what it’s like to be self employed as she has built her own businesses from the ground up so she knows how to build a successful business, why you need to build a successful (and ‘sell’able’ business) and how you can claim back a bit of ‘work life balance’ so you can fall in love with your business again.
There’s a lot of reasons a Fist Home Buyer will choose to build, there’s the Government grant for a start, getting a little. Ash from the government is always nice, but there’s also the benefit of having the the home you want, with the features you want.
Although building is exciting and the possibilities seem endless, it can also be confusing, stressful and risky.
I met Shane from Property Boutique talk about how he helps his clients to navigate the uncharted waters that is building to help take some of the stress away but also to ensure the end result is an equity rich home.
Over the course of a few weeks Shane and I put together some hints and tips for anyone looking to build their home?
There’s so much talk in the media about First Home Buyers and how hard it is to get into the Property Market.
From the clients I talk to I see two common issues around First Home Buyers getting into the market (and I’ll give you a hint…. it’s not smashed avocado)
This is the second episode of Who are the people in my Neighbourhood, where we meet Les from Resi Inspections to talk about his top 3 tips everyone should know when it comes to building and pest.
Les has been working in the building industry for his whole career and more recently he has been specialising in Building and Pest Inspections. Les prides himself on educating his clients so they not only get the Building and Pest Report they pay for but they also get the understanding behind what the report means for them.

I love talking to my clients when they have just signed a contract on a new property. I love joking with them and asking ‘what did you do today? oh you know, went for coffee, read the paper, brought a house… just an average day’
The reality is, for the majority of us, buying a house is not something they do constantly, and it can be confusing to know what needs to happy when, especially for First Home Buyers. So if that’s you, here is your 7 steps in the mortgage pre-approval process…

I recently had the pleasure of talking to Elise Bates recently about her new business venture. Elise is just weeks away from launching her new business which offers Postpartum services to new Mums and Dads – a service I wish I had available when my two were born.
I had the pleasure of meeting with Gary from Custodian last year, and he gave me a copy of John L. Fitzgerald’s book “7 Steps to wealth”
In all honestly, I had promised to read it on my flight to the national broker conference in Western Australia, but I knew deep down, I would read the first three pages and then settle in to an in flight movie with a glass of Qantas ‘house red’. After all, it’s not often I get an uninterrupted 5 hours!
