cover story

With interest rates still low, Sunshine Coast house prices proving resilient and tentative signs that Australia’s recession may be V-shaped,

there’s a new optimism about the property market. But what many home owners and renters may not know is there is a raft of government incentives lending a fi nancial hand, giving them something more to smile about. Th ey range from rebates for switching from electric to solar hot water, to part payment of rents, to tax breaks, to free sustainability inspections followed by free interest on loans.

“Federal and State governments have reacted swift ly to ensure continuing interest in the industry,” says Adrian Langford, local branch manager of the Housing Industry Association. “We’ve had a lot of inquiries recently, about renovations particularly, and there’s confi dence coming back into the market.”

However, Adrian has a warning. “Th ese things don’t last forever, so [buyers should] seize the opportunities while they’re available,” he says.

Real Estate Institute of Queensland Coast chair Jean Hamer says home owners should be looking into these ways to make savings. “I encourage people to access these rebates if they can,” she says. “Changing your hot water system, for example, can bring your electricity bill down by hundreds of dollars each year.” She says many people hear of the special deals but aren’t sure of the details.

Listed below are some major government off ers, but don’t forget to check out others on off er from fi nancial institutions, developers and goods and service providers.

RENTAL INCOME SUBSIDIESUp for grabs: Almost $9000 a year for 10 yearsTh e Federal and State governments are off ering an $8672-a-year incentive for 10 years to investors who

lease their property to eligible low and moderate income households at 20 per cent below market rates. Th e incentive can be a payment or a refundable tax off set and it goes up each year according to the rent component of the CPI. Last year the scheme started with an $8000 payment.

Th is National Rental Aff ordability Scheme (NRAS) aims to encourage the construction of new aff ordable rental properties in high need areas. It targets larger-scale developments so private individual investors can take advantage of it by joining consortiums.

According to Peter Queitzsch, principal of Fox

Re/Max Noosa, NRAS underwrites a yield of 7.95 per cent and higher, depending on the value and rent return on each property. “In my 34 years of real estate, this is the best scheme the government has initiated for residential investment property, considering returns on the majority of the Coast are below the national average of 4.5 per cent yield,” he says.

Peter’s team has been aggregating property from Cairns to Chinchilla, including the Coast, for NRAS and says there has been great interest from investors.

NRAS aims to increase the supply of new aff ordable rental housing by 50,000 dwellings across Australia by 2012 and another 50,000 aft erwards, subject to demand. In Queensland, applicants covering more than 660

It’s not money for nothing, but owner-occupiers, investors and renters can save thousands by plugging into the property-related incentives now on offer from the Federal and State governments. Julie Gatehouse fi nds out how.

GREEN LOANSUp for grabs: Free environmental assessments and interest-free loansWant to make your home more sustainability? Get the Federal Government to pay for a qualifi ed assessor to do a 90-minute assessment on your home. If you act on the assessor’s recommendations and borrow money to do the work, the Government will pay the interest on your loan (conditions apply).

Th ese ‘green loans’ are part of the national eff ort to encourage people to tackle climate change. Each year the average Aussie household adds 14 tonnes of greenhouse gas to the atmosphere – enough to fi ll 280,000 balloons – and draws an average of 292,000 litres or 73,000 buckets of water.

Th e multimillion-dollar initiative aims to help existing households install solar, and water-saving and energy-effi cient products. It has two elements. Firstly, home sustainability assessments, where people get their houses assessed for free by qualifi ed contractors.

Secondly, there are interest-free green loans. If you access up to $10,000 over four years to make the changes recommended in the assessment, the Government subsidises the interest charged by your fi nancial institution.

According to the federal environment department, measures could range from upgrading light bulbs and fi xing tap leaks to installing solar panels, grey water fi ltration systems or rainwater tanks.

Assessments involve inspecting major energy and water systems relating to thermal comfort, water heating, lighting, refrigeration, cooking, entertainment, water effi ciency and outdoor consumption, and waste management. Renters can access the program as long as they abide by lease conditions. Th e subsidies are expected to be available until December 2012 or until available funds have run out.

“It’s designed to improve the energy and water effi ciencies of our homes – the way they heat up and cool down,” says Paul Kramer of training company Environment Australia. “For example, old air-conditioners are draining our power while energy bills aren’t getting any cheaper so this is really important for the future.”

Governments are looking at these issues across the board. For example, from September 1, Queensland will lead the nation with a ban on the sale and installation of ineffi cient air-conditioning units. New or replacement units will have to have a minimum energy rating of four

stars (up from 2.5), equivalent to an energy effi ciency ratio (EER) of 2.9. It’s signifi cant when you consider that two-thirds of Queensland households have air-con – up from one-third in 1994.

Paul’s Brisbane-based company has been busy conducting four-day courses from Cairns to Hobart to train local people as assessors. Registered assessors get a minimum $150 a household from the government. “It’s already really popular,” Paul says. “I’ve been involved in similar training for 18 years but everybody knows about the environment now. We’re developing a similar course for businesses.”

Th e pressure to go green will be upped in Queensland from January 1 next year. Th e State Government will require a “sustainability declaration” to be completed when existing houses and units are sold. In making the announcement, Premier Anna Bligh said the declaration would not be part of the contract of sale “but rather serve to inform prospective buyers about the sustainability features of the dwelling”. It won’t apply to rental properties.

Paul says, “Th is mandatory disclosure will aff ect the real estate industry because it has to be made available to potential purchasers for every sale.”

A Queensland Government election commitment is to require new houses and major renovations to meet a six-star energy rating by the end of next year.

For details and guidelines on Green Loans go to www.environment.gov.au/greenloans.

HOT TIPS FOR HOT WATERUp for grabs: A $1600 Federal rebate or $500 Queensland rebateTh ere are a couple of heft y incentives if you’re replacing your electric hot water system with solar, but make sure you read the fi ne print. Th e Federal Government’s $1600 solar hot water rebate looks the best bet at the moment, while the Queensland Government’s program is dealing with overwhelming demand for its $500 installation deals.

Keep in mind that Australia is phasing out electric continued over >

hot water systems in new and existing houses or townhouses (not units) from January 1 next year. Th at means whenever you have to replace your system, you’ll have to install a new greenhouse-effi cient option such as gas, solar or heat pump.

You can get the $1600 federal rebate by replacing an existing electric storage hot water system with a new solar or heat pump hot water system before June 30, 2012. It’s for owner-occupiers, landlords and tenants, as long as the latter get permission.

Part of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s $4 billion Energy Effi cient Homes Package, this rebate aims to help people install climate-friendly systems and save money on power bills. Water heating uses about 30 per cent of home energy use and is the home’s biggest single source of greenhouse gases. Families can save hundreds of dollars a year on energy bills.

For details on the federal rebate go to www.environment.gov.au/energyeffi ciency and click on ‘solar hot water’.

Under Queensland’s Solar Hot Water Program, you pay just $500, or $100 for pensioners, to install a solar system or heat pump. Th e catch is that this price hinges on the applicant also being eligible for the $1600 federal rebate. If not, the applicant must pay that extra.

Th e state program, which opened for applications a month ago, aims to install 200,000 solar systems over three years. However, energy minister Stephen Robertson says more than 28,000 people registered interest before it even began, so that lot was being processed fi rst. “We are delighted by the overwhelming response to be part of a program that off ers reductions in household electricity bills of up to 25 per cent.”

For details on the state program go to www.cleanenergy.qld.gov.au and click on ‘Queensland Solar Hot Water Program’.

CEILING A DEALUp for grabs: A $1600 or $1000 rebateOwner-occupiers can get ceiling insulation worth up to $1600 from the Federal Government under its Energy Effi cient Homes Package – as long as you don’t access its $1600 solar hot water deal. Choose one or the other. If you want it in before summer, get in quick because installers and retailers are trying to keep up with an inundation of applications across Queensland, including hundreds on the Sunshine Coast.

Th e package aims to put insulation in 2.9 million homes by December 31, 2011 to help people reduce energy use, cut annual power bills by $200 and increase the comfort and value of their homes. If your home has little or no insulation, take a look at this rebate. Th e

cover story

Landlords and tenants can get up to $1000 to install ceiling insulation in homes under the Federal Government’s Low Emission Assistance Plan for Renters. Th is includes holiday homes that may be untenanted. It’s backdated to February and available until June 30, 2011. You get the quotes, the installer gets the government money and if there’s left over, you pay it. Again it’s part of the big move to reduce our carbon footprint.

For details go to www.environment.gov.au/energyeffi ciency/insulation/renters.

GO GAS, SAVE CASHUp for grabs: A $500 rebateIf you’re installing a gas appliance such as a hot water system, cooktop, oven, stove, space heater or clothes dryer, you could be eligible for up to $500 from the Queensland Government. Its Residential Gas Installation Rebate Scheme aims to replace electric (and some non-electric) appliances in existing homes. Go to the Mines and Energy Department for details at www.dme.qld.gov.au/Energy/gas_rebate.cfm.

FIRST IN, BEST DRESSED Up for grabs: $14,000 if buying an existing home or $21,000 for newly built houses. To get the most out of the Federal Government’s boost for fi rst-home owners, you need to sign on the dotted line before September 30. If eligible, you’ll get $14,000 if you are moving into an existing dwelling or $21,000

for a brand new home. It’s paid in a lump sum on settlement or completion.

Th ere are plenty of conditions to check on this one and you must enter into a contract to purchase an existing home, build or buy a new home, or buy off the plan before that date.

However, from October 1 to December 31, you’ll still get a decent deduction - $10,500 (existing) or $14,000 (new). Next year, the $7000 First Home Owner Grant will continue – and don’t forget to see if you qualify for a transfer duty concession too.

Th is boost is already credited with keeping the under-$500,000 real estate market ticking fi rmly on the Sunshine Coast during recent months.

For details go to www.osr.qld.gov.au/fi rst-home-owner-grant/boost/index.shtml

TAXING TIMESUp for grabs: Exemptions or deductions on paying land taxIf you own freehold land and use it as your principal place of residence, you may be able to claim an exemption or deduction on the Queensland Government’s land tax. It relates to all kinds of land, including vacant parcels or those that are built on. As at June 30 every year, the State Government adds up the value of all land that you own and taxes you. Th e amount you pay or exemption you may get depends on how much you own.

For details go to: www.osr.qld.gov.au/land-tax/exemp-reb-land-tax/index.shtml

IT’S YOUR DUTYUp for grabs: A waiver of the need to pay stamp duty for fi rst-home buyersWhen you buy a home, the Queensland Government charges you transfer or stamp duty. Th e amount depends on the property’s sale price and whether you intend to live in it or use it as an investment. However, concessions are available. For example, fi rst-home buyers pay no stamp duty on a home valued up to $500,000 or a vacant block valued up to $250,000.

For details go to www.osr.qld.gov.au/duties/transfer-duty/index.shtml

RAINING DOLLARSUp for grabs: $500 to buy a rainwater tank or grey-water systemHome owners can get rebates of up to $500 for buying new rainwater tanks or grey-water systems under the National Rainwater and Greywater Initiative. Your newly installed rainwater tank must be connected for internal reuse of the water for toilets and/or laundry. Th e federal program, which started this year and is expected to continue until 2014, is administered by the federal Environment Department.

On Tuesday, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) announced that the offi cial cash rate, which stands at three per cent, will remain unchanged.

In a statement by Glenn Stevens, the RBA’s governor monetary policy, the board believes that the present accommodative setting of monetary policy is appropriate given the economy’s circumstances.

“With considerable economic stimulus in train around the world, the global economy is stabilising aft er an earlier sharp contraction in demand,” he said in the statement. “Downside risks to the global outlook have diminished, though they have not disappeared, and most observers expect only modest growth overall.”

When commenting on the global situation, he said, “Th ere is tentative evidence that the US economy is approaching a turning point, but conditions in Europe are still weakening. Growth in China, in contrast, has been very strong in recent months, which is having an impact on other economies in the region and on commodity markets.”

Th e statement also refers to the current economic conditions in Australia as being much stronger than

expected a few months ago with consumer spending and exports showing resilience. “Infl ation is gradually moderating, given the earlier decline in energy and commodity prices, and the eff ects of weaker demand on

prices and labour costs.” He also justifi es the board’s decision based on the fact that housing credit has been solid and dwelling prices have risen over recent months.

However, the three per cent cash rate isn’t predicted

to stay that low for too much longer, according to some experts. Dr Ron Silberberg, who is the managing director of HIA, says the reductions in variable home mortgage rates have played a pivotal role in stimulating new housing supply, but he also says that the industry outlook is “by no means assured”.

“It will be important to keep interest rates stable over 2009/2010 to support activity and confi dence as tentative housing recovery runs into the headwind of rising unemployment,” he says. He adds that speculation of near-term increases in rates could damage the early signs of recovery in new home building.

Meanwhile, Treasurer Wayne Swan says it is “obvious” that rates would rise from the current three per cent, but didn’t speculate on the timing of that. He told Channel Nine television, “It is obvious that some time into the future rates will certainly rise. But for the time being the Reserve Bank has said that we still have a diffi cult outlook and it takes that into account when it’s setting the future of rates.”

Th e next RBA meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 1.

The RBA has announced that interest rates will remain unchanged for the next month to help aid our economic recovery.

It will be important to keep interest rates stable over to support activity and

While many of the larger superannuation funds are able to purchase property, the majority of self-managed funds have not have suffi cient capital to do so, and so have been restricted to equity investments. In 2007, the Federal Government changed the guidelines for self-managed superannuation funds so they can secure property investments via an instalment warrant, although many people are still unaware of these changes.

You may not have been aware of it, but instalment warrants were used by mum and dad investors to purchase their Telstra (T1 and T2) shares. Th ey paid a small percentage of the upfront share price and borrowed the balance, whichwas repaid by instalments until they owned theshares outright.

In practical terms, borrowing to invest in direct property should work the same as using instalment warrants to buy shares. By making the initial instalment, your fund becomes entitled to rental income and capital gains, off set by the requirement to come up with pre-paid interest and upfront fees. Th is diff ers to a normal mortgage as the repayments are not spread over 20 to 25 years but are, for example, made in three big payments, until the loan is repaid. Th e usual instalment plan is fi ve to 10 years.

Th ere are many advantages to this style of investing, including the fact that generally there is no capital gains tax to be paid on the transfer of the property to an investor or self-managed super fund. Th e concept is ideal for investors who either have money in super and are no longer eligible to contribute or have exceeded their super contribution caps and want to supplement their retirement. Rental income can also be off set against interest and other costs. And your other assets are protected against borrowing risks in this type of loan.

Be wary of the fees and charges associated with any instalment warrant, such as management fees, annual reset fees, excessive interest rates and initial application costs. When deciding whether or not to go with this type of investment, don’t look at the percentages, but rather the actual amounts you have to pay.

In laymen’s terms, an instalment warrant acts as the vehicle for your self-managed superannuation fund to acquire a property. Instalment warrants are a product of the equities market, where the investor makes an initial part-payment and then is required to pay the remaining instalment plus interest and costs at a future date.

Th e major disadvantage associated with using your super to buy property is that borrowing increases the potential for greater losses. An inability to repay the loan for investors entering their pension phase and potential cash fl ow implications are also disadvantages to be aware of. Capital gains tax issues may also apply, so be aware of this one.

Consult your fi nancial advisor to ensure that your superannuation plan is best suited to your situation.

profi le

Before I was a real estate agent I was: A restaurant manager.That involved: Managing all staff members, creating and upholding the highest standard of customer service, management of stock and front-of-house duties. I started in real estate because: I thoroughly enjoy meeting new people every day and I jumped at the chance to combine this passion of mine with my intense interest in the property market. My greatest assets are: My personable nature and ability to recognise people’s needs and how to achieve for them.I’m afraid of: Th e environmental problems our world is facing and the impact that could have on my children’s future.I live by the motto: Successful people

are those who do tasks that the rest of us don’t like to do. If I won $1 million tomorrow I’d: Buy my dream home, a boat for my brother and a holiday for my parents.When I grow up, I want: To continually grow and develop as a successful real estate agent.The biggest challenge I’ve had in life is: I left my job, friends and family behind in Sydney to make a new start in a new career on the Sunshine Coast. The most inspiring thing to happen to me is: Seeing my mother look aft er her family and the family business when my father was in a coma. My mother had never even been involved in the business before that. If you looked in the boot of my car, you’d fi nd: Open for inspection signs and a picnic rug.

Palmwoods agent Mike Burns believes that it’s up to the market to decide the value of the rural properties on his books.

Two Nambour shopping centres have sold for $54.5 million.

by Dorothy Drane

The buyer’s market

Commercial sale

When anyone asks Mike Burns the price of a rural property, he likes to reply, “I don’t know,

ask a buyer.”And it’s this philosophy that has

led to his penchant for auctions, so that buyers can do just that.

Mike, the principal of Elders Real Estate in Palmwoods, also fi nds that Sunday is the best day to do it. “Sunday auctions work very well as a lot of people now are busy on Saturdays, taking kids to sport or working or catching up at home,” he says. “It also means we can open up the house both days so people can come and have a look through on Saturday or Sunday morning followed by the auction that aft ernoon.

“Sunday fi ts with today’s families and you can get the numbers through over the weekend. Auctions give people choices and you only need three weeks of marketing.”

Mike says he’s held dozens of successful auctions already this year. An onsite auction of three acres at Nicklin Road, at the eastern entrance to Palmwoods, recently attracted more than 70 people out on a Sunday aft ernoon, with 64 visitors inspecting the property that weekend, including the eventual buyer.

“We got a lot of interest and a sale in three weeks of marketing,” he says. “Th e property had 300 avocado trees, but it was more a hobby farm than a full-time income generator, so it was a lifestyle opportunity. Th e buyer turned out to be a local downsizing.”

And despite once being told that auctions would never work for him, Mike was last year named as Elders’ top Queensland auction lister in the non-metropolitan area.

He currently has four auction programs running. “I rarely price rural

property because it is all about what a buyer is seeking. Unless you have identical comparables, something you can never get particularly in rural property, the only person who knows the true value is the buyer,” he says.

“Th e best thing is to get the potential buyers there and that’s the value of an auction. It dictates that in as short as possible time you can maximise the buyer pool.”

Mike says he had seen diff erences of more than $100,000 in appraisals on rural properties.

“An auction means that you are not going to put on a price that’s unachievable and have a vendor miss out. Instead you increase the buyer pool and fi nd the person who really wants the place for what it is.

“Unless you are 100 per cent sure of what you are doing with pricing, you can miss out on the heart buyer.”

Nambour Plaza and Nambour Central shopping centres have been sold for a combined sum

of $54.5 million.Real Estate agency Savills negotiated

the sale to a private syndicate created by Adelaide-based Perks Property Investments.

Th e Nambour Plaza Shopping Centre in Anne Street, has a net lettable area of 11,282 square metre, with

Woolworths and Big W as the anchor tenants. Th ere are a further 40 specialty shops and the centre has undercover parking for about 600 cars.

On the opposite side of Ann Street, on the corner of Lowe Street, the Nambour Central Shopping Centre has a net lettable area of 2430 square metres.

It is anchored by an IGA supermarket and has 10 specialty shops and 75 car parks.

Under Maroochy 2000 planning, the township of Palmwoods has an important service role and is a “distinctive and attractive small country town, which fulfi ls the needs of surrounding rural and residential communities”.

The vision is that it will remain a small country town and the informal settlement pattern and layout of the older parts of the town will be retained as important elements of its character and amenity. Existing historic buildings, which contribute to this character, will be respected and enhanced.

He says Palmwoods remains popular, as it had retains its rural feel and still has little pockets of true rural land while being close to town with all the amenities and services.

Build your dream home, with no covenants, on gently sloping and elevated land next to Australia Zoo. Situated in a popular and established estate, these two blocks have quality soil and superb northerly aspects. Commuting to Brisbane is easy with two railway stations close by. Lot three is 1529 square metres while lot fi ve is 1624 square metres.Address:

The latest rent newsOn loan Transfer it Unclaimed money

could be yours

Get in the know with these fast facts about bond loans, transfers and unclaimed cash.

If you’re considering renting but don’t have the extra cash to pay your bond, there is a solution. A rental Bond Loan

is an interest-free loan available to those who cannot aff ord to pay the full rental bond to move into private rental accommodation. Th e bond is payable by a tenant and is equivalent to four weeks’ rent. It is similar to a security deposit, should you breach your residential tenancy agreement (for example by failing to pay rent or causing damage to the property). To be eligible for a Bond Loan, you must live in Queensland and you must not already be living in a property that requires a bond loan. Th ere are some other basic criteria which must be met for those who want to apply for a Bond Loan through the Queensland Government. Contact your nearest Department of Housing offi ce or visit the Residential Tenancy Authority at www.rta.qld.gov.au for more information.

When vacating a property, it is possible to transfer the bond from one property to the next,

where the RTA holds the bond money instead of paying it back at the end of the tenancy. To arrange for a transfer of bond, the tenant and their previous lessor/agent need to complete a Form 3 Transfer of Bond. Th is form also allows for the bond to be paid between the two parties if necessary. A Form 2, Bond Lodgement will need to be fi lled out and sent to the RTA for the new property, with any additional bond monies that may need to be paid.

The Residential Tenancy Authority has an unclaimed money list that is basically a list of unclaimed rental

bonds. Unclaimed money arises when the RTA has issued a bond refund cheque, and the payee has not deposited that cheque. If the money remains unclaimed (which is usually the result of people either forgetting to cash their cheques or moving premises without notifying the RTA of their new address), for more than 15 months, it is then added to the RTA’s unclaimed money list. Visit the RTA website, www.rta.qld.gov.au to see if you have unclaimed bond monies owing to you.

DIY

fi replace works a treat, but again, be prepared to go through the ceiling and the roof, and make sure the person installing it is pedantic because these babies are known to cause minor roof leaks. Aside from that, you can go for a gas burner or if you prefer the look of burning logs without the hassle of connecting to gas or collecting wood, you could always opt for an electric model. It looks just like a gas or wood fi replace, but simply hangs on the wall.

Dave: Great question Paul! Th is is an area that’s very close to my hearth. Sorry, I

mean ‘heart’. Th e house that sings in Palmwoods has a wood heater that was locally made in Maleny and in winter it’s the ducks guts. It’s

based in the lounge room but gets the whole house hotter than Megan

Fox on a motorbike. And they’re pretty simple to install. You’ve missed this winter so aim for next year. Th at’ll give you plenty of time to stockpile wood. You’ll need a log splitter, a pair

of cowhide gloves and an alcohol problem. Because drinking and

staring at embers go together

Q like the Broncos and losing. Just like the Broncos Paul, you need to FIRE UP!

Todd: Paul, Paul, Paul! Maaaaaatttteeee! A fi replace sounds very romantic and it is in theory, but the harsh reality is it’s like watching Deal or No Deal – lot’s of hard work for a very small reward. Ditch the fi re concept Paul and get yourself a solarium, whirl it into the lounge room, plug it in and away you go. It’s easier than Jordan aft er a couple of vodka UDLs and it massively reduces your carbon footprint. (Editor’s note: this does not have a carbon-reducing eff ect in any way.) So Paul, any time you’re feeling chilly, hop into the your tan-tastic machine, set it for ‘Bronzed Aussie’, pop your goggles on and let the cancer-friendly radiation bars do their thing! You’ll be toasty warm in no time, plus you’ll look a hundred bucks with your new man-tan. Gosh darnit Paul, you can bet I wish my girlfriend was hot like you. As an aside, someone should tell TV’s Sonia Kruger to get outta the solarium, she’s more orange than that small NSW town will ever be. If the dancing gig doesn’t pan out she can get a job working in Wonka’s choccie factory.

Years ago when my husband and I lived in Sydney we decided to pull out some plants in the backyard. A neighbour was helping by digging out a stubborn root, when he put a shovel through an ancient ceramic sewerage pipe. It was a gusher. Raw sewerage was fl owing out of our yard and down the street, to houses blocks away.

Blind ambition

Window treatment trends in interior design seem to be advancing at a glacial pace in recent years. But even though we haven’t seen

many new window solutions introduced to the market recently, designers are always working on ways to improve the existing styles – in particular when it comes to blinds and shutters.

Th e main purpose of blinds and shutters is to keep the heat and light out of your home while providing you with privacy, but they’re also a stylish interior element in their own right. While curtains lend a soft edge to a room, blinds and shutters will keep your home on trend.

Celebrity interior designer Tara Dennis stresses the importance of keeping up with window treatment trends. “Th e way a window is ‘dressed’ can dramatically aff ect how a room feels as well as how good it looks both inside and outside the house,” she says.

What’s in, what’s out Th e latest trends are sleek, contemporary and highly technical with automated and cordless mechanisms. Th e trend is moving away from thick, bulky fabrics with a shift towards blinds and shutters focusing on technology and the environment.

Sue Schutz from Kunda Park’s Decorate by Design says roller blinds and timber shutters look right at home in the most stylish of pads.

“Roll-down blinds in sunscreen [for fi ltered light and views throughout the day] and block out [for total privacy] are a popular choice as they are cost-eff ective, streamlined and give a contemporary feel,” Sue says. “Timber shutters are also a popular choice as, apart from being aesthetically pleasing, they off er excellent privacy at all times.”

Justin Ralph from Shy Blinds, which is also in Kunda Park, agrees that timber shutters are a great way to dress up a home’s windows.

“Plantation shutters have always been popular in Queensland and are still our biggest selling product,” he says. “Th ey give you all the benefi ts most people are looking for in window covering – privacy and sun and light control – and they are a product that can catch the breeze and signifi cantly help to reduce heat. Plantation shutters do all that.”

Blinds are also a great way to cut back on your heating bill. Justin says that some products come with an extremely high insulation rating, keeping your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

ColourAccording to Sue, the colour of the blinds is just as important as the choice of style. “It is now more the trend to follow the colour of the walls [in neutral colours or a subtle contrast]. Th is seems to be more popular than windows becoming the feature of a room with heavy curtains and accent colours,” she says.

“We now tend to leave this to soft furnishings, such as scatter cushions, fl oor rugs and the like. By achieving this more fl uid look, the window furnishings will not date or need be replaced as oft en as colour trends change.”

While sticking to neutral colours is a safe and stylish approach, Justin says it’s not the only option. He says using vibrant colours in roman and panel glide blinds can be a great way to inject colour and personality into a room. “You shouldn’t be afraid to use colour, as long as it’s done stylishly,” he says.

“What we’re starting to see change now is the use of fabrics with more texture. Modern patterns are becoming popular and people are starting to use brighter colours.”

AutomationAs technology advances, automating all parts of the home is becoming more commonplace, and this

by Jessica Ainscough

trend also applies to blinds. Sue from Decorate by Design says, “If you can have electric windows in your car, why not in your home?”

Automation has become a very popular choice, particularly in larger or high windows to assist with effi cient operation,” she says. “Th is application off ers a quiet, smooth and simple operation.”

Justin from Shy Blinds says many home owners are even incorporating their blinds into their building management systems. “Just as you can control lighting and heating from your C-Bus system, you can also control your blinds,” he says. “You can now set your blinds to open and close in conjunction with the sun.

EnvironmentWith the world now conscious of the need to reduce our carbon footprints, there’s also an increased focus on environmentally-friendly window dressings. Not only are blinds and shutters designed to cut down on energy use, but some manufacturers are following practices that reduce environmental impact.

“Th ere is now a swing towards environmental options to window coverings with an increasing range of fabrics available that have achieved Oeko-Tex certifi cation,” Sue says. “Th is tests for harmful substances in textiles aft er the manufacturing process.”

It includes free sausage sizzles, a jumping castle and other rides, face painting, fairy fl oss and a range of other food and drinks. Dora the Explorer will also feature in some stage shows and there will be a fi reworks display aft er the sun goes down.

Stockland’s regional manager for the Sunshine Coast, Nick Wellwood, says the opening of the Brightwater Living Display Centre will be a major milestone for the community.

“Since its launch in September last year, Brightwater has set a new standard for stylish living in a master-planned community close to the beach and all modern lifestyle amenities,” Nick says.

“We are now very excited to be launching the Sunshine Coast’s largest and most innovative display home centre,’’ he says.

“I would encourage as many people as possible to bring the family along to our fun day, enjoy the free entertainment, and discover a whole

new approach to shopping for a new home.’’

Th e Brightwater Living Display Centre will be offi cially opened by Sunshine Coast Deputy Mayor Tim Dwyer and Councillor Chris Th ompson.

Th e Brightwater Living Display Centre is located next to the Brightwater Sales and Information Centre, off Kawana Way at Mountain Creek.

It has ample parking and is close to a 5000-square metre park and playground to make the visit an enjoyable family experience.

Stockland will provide each visitor with a complete guide to the centre as well as professional advice on which display homes are best suited to their individual needs.

An innovative touch screen system in the Brightwater sales and information centre will make the process even easier and help buyers select the perfect block of land for their new home.

New home buyers at all Stockland communities also have access to expert advice and assistance from the Stockland Home Finance mortgage broking service.

Home sites at Brightwater are currently available from $220,000, while home and land packages start at $399,500 for a three-bedroom home on 360 square metres.

For more information go to www.stockland.com.au/brightwater, call 5444 1333 or visit the Brightwater sales and information centre off Kawana Way at Mountain Creek.

Australians love the outdoors, and in South-East Queensland, we’re lucky enough to have a climate

that pretty much allows us to entertain outside all year round.

From the tiniest courtyards to large sprawling resort-style backyards, one key element can make a real diff erence to an outdoor living space once the sun goes down. Good external lighting can create the perfect ambience, but where exactly do you start? Here are a few quick and easy ways to light up your outdoor areas.

Welcome: A well-designed lighting format can welcome guests to your home and path lights are a great way to do this. Remember to keep path lights low to the ground, evenly spaced, symmetrical and keep the wattage down. Strips along one side is enough – do both and you risk creating an airstrip look. Popular choices are cylindrical-shaped stainless steel light poles that range in size from around 30 centimetres to a metre.

Feature: Spotlights are a fabulous way

to illuminate foliage or well-textured plants. Th ey work best when directed from the ground upwards, but make sure the beam of light is well positioned and that it doesn’t radiate beyond your focal point and into darkness.

Recessed down lights: Add some creative fl air by recessing aluminum down lights into your timber deck. Place them around the border or edge of a deck and space them evenly to create an extra feature. Marine grade ones are also available and they come in a range of colours including green, blue and red.

Tips: • Remember with outdoor lighting not to overdo it. Shadows can work really well to defi ne areas and the contrast between light and dark can add a more dramatic eff ect at night rather than a light-drenched and stark space.• As we live in a coastal area, marine-grade stainless steel is the best choice of material due to its resistance to the elements and its durability.

Land at Kirra Heights Country Estate on the chopping block. Brightwater’s Living Display Centre opens this Saturday.

Light up your outdoors with some well-positioned globes.

tips & tricks

Colour me happyUpdate your shades for an instant lift to any room.

The most eff ective way to update any interior space is to change the colour scheme. When done well,

creating a new colour scheme will breathe life into a room. But if done in haste, the redesign runs the risk of being off -trend and dating quickly.

When most of us think of colour we automatically think wall colour, but paint is just a part of the entire colour scheme. Coloured and textured accessories, such as rugs, lamps, fl owers, rugs and artwork also add colour to a room.

When selecting colours, the old rules of interior decorating apply – a colour scheme should be either monochromatic (shades of a single colour), harmonious (with similar colours) or contrasting. Get yourself a colour wheel if you’re unsure of what’s what, or play it safe and opt for one of these popular colour schemes:

Black and whiteSimple and stylish, a black and white colour scheme is one of the easiest to achieve as you’re working with just two shades. Go for a dramatic aff ect by

painting a black feature wall – just make sure the paint is a black with undertones of green or blue to soft en it up. Th e other walls should be off -white. Continue the theme with your furnishings. If the contrast in your room is a bit much, break it up by throwing some red accessories into the mix. Or, add a touch of glamour by using some silver. A chandelier is a beautiful statement piece.

Warm, neutral coloursEvoke a warm, cosy feel by using neutral monochromatic shades. Th ink earthy colours like chocolate, caramel andcream for the perfect winter environment and employ brighter colours like red and burnt orange for summer.

BlueUsing blue as the dominant colour in your room will create a feeling of space and serenity. While it’s generally a calming colour, splashes of bright blue or turquoise will instantly cheer you up. Work the strong hue back with neutrals shades like white, tan or chocolate.
