Show Notes

Renovation expert, Justine Bennett tells us how you go about renovating a strata property. 

So where do you start, do you need council or strata approval & what are the restrictions? We discuss logistics like getting materials in & out, restricted working hours & dealing with tenants & neighbours. 

Plus, we uncover a whole bunch of pitfalls including:

  • Knowing that buying a renovated apartment comes risks.

  • What reno is a value add & what is overcapitalising?

  • Unexpected ways to unlock untapped potential.
  • Why the location of plumbing matters big time.

  • Concrete cancer & water issues that wreak havoc in apartments.

  • How to buy ownership of common space to increase your property value.
