Since purchasing Elders Real Estate Port Macquarie in 2017, David saw a unique opportunity in a market place that was open for change. In that time he has expanded to a total of 11 offices that strategically enable full market coverage, blanketing the Mid North Coast and Northern Rivers areas. As of the 1st November 2019 Elders Lifestyle Group was founded.
Prior to creating the Elders Lifestyle Group, David has had an extensive 20 plus year career in real estate and has a deep love for all things property. In that time David has transacted and managed real estate on behalf of his clients, actively been involved in building his own property portfolio and developed over $100 million of Real Estate in Sydney’s Eastern suburb’s market.
I have used a variety of strategies when buying and investing over the last 20 years and want to share my lessons. Working across all types of property sectors personally, as an auctioneer and real estate owner dealing with clients provides a unique 360 perspective and a real competitive edge.
Your property strategy must start with an understanding of what is the “ideal” property for you. This may depend on your risk profile, goals, what you’re looking to do, budget, income, and also your knowledge. If selling, do you know how to promote it?
If not, it can be quite risky. You need to understand yourself first and where you want to go before, I can recommend what to look at and the location.
There are lots of different strategies and choices with property including - Buy and Renovate. This is one of the safest property strategies. You can look at a property that’s got foundations and assess the property and location against your

ideal buying criteria. Buy and renovate means that you can buy and add value from day one.
So if you wanted to invest in Port Macquarie, around either Clifton or Flynns beach. You could buy a house for around $450,000, plan to spend $50,000 or less on a renovation, and build an asset worth $500, 000.
Buying and renovating is not a get rich scheme. It is a proven strategy to add value from day one. If you hold onto the property you can let the compound interest work on this asset over time. Ideally, we would like to buy, renovate and sell to build wealth. The market cycle is a key variable that can impact all of the steps.

I am writing this on the last leg of our amazing European holiday in the hope to inspire, provide you with a few good travel tips and give you a bit of an insight to what’s happening O/S in terms of fashion. Time to dust off those passports and start living! Flying Sydney to Mykonos was a dream come true. Stylish white rendered buildings line the coastline beyond the crystal clear turquoise water. Incredible luxury boats mored perfectly along the beautiful coastline is a view you definitely do not get sick of waking up to! We chose to stay at ‘Mykonos Blu’, incredible views, comfortable, minimalist stylish interiors and a very ‘instagramable’ pool area. Trend alert - crotchet knits, twin sets, linen (especially white) all with a funky boho feel.
For the next part of our journey we flew Mykonos to Croatia. There we stayed at ‘The Pakace’ Debrovnik for 1 night and somehow got upgraded to the presidential suite! With breaktaking views over the magical islands that surround and a beautiful sunset dinner at one if the in-house restaurants, I think that may be the closest we get to seeing how ‘the other half’ really live. We also visited the ‘Old Town’ a must do full of amazing history, great restaurants and beautiful beaches. What to Wear - Anything goes in Dubrovnik, it’s extremely hot so basically swimmers, sandals and a simple cotton dress works best Instagram
Next we set for 3 days with our great friends Ollie & Rach and chartered a boat to sail around the ‘Elephante Islands’. Wow, wow wow! Is all I can say. Croatian waters are my favourite so far. I couldn’t even begin to explain how clear, blue and - with the perfect temperature was absolute bliss! Our wonderful captain Bruno was excellent and provided us with many different islands to stop for lunch, we had a great night at a beach club and best of all the was being with our friends, music on, drink in hand and nothing to worry about except our next swim! Must haves - swimmers, denim or linen shorts & top, sunscreen and hat.
The drive from Dubrovnik to Split took about 3 hours. A very windey road that follows the coast most of the way. I can’t say I loved Split but I have been told Havar is amazing so if you are planning on going make sure you organise a day trip to this gorgeous island. We arrived in Rome about 5.30pm just in time to unpack our things and head to the rooftop bar for afternoon cocktails! We stayed at the ‘W’ which also has a pool on the rooftop which I have since been told is very uncommon. We absolutely love staying a W Hotels around the world so if you haven’t tried it - I urge you to check it out, you won’t be disappointed!
We had a fabulous time in Rome, the history and architecture is next level impressive.Be ready with your best walking shoes though - we averaged about 15kms per day and with temps around 35 degrees made it a long day. Plenty of truely amazing restaurants (we are at Michelin star restaurant within the Eden Hotel and partied the night away at ‘The Sanctuary’ Rome is a city you must visit, the fashion, food and atheism is of the highest level and just a beautiful experience.
From Rome we hired a private car to take us to Naples where we caught a speedboat to the island of Capri! This little town has a funky little vibe, very busy but with some great shopping and picturesque scenery. If you like getting dressed up - Capri is the place to do it. We stayed at a quaint private villa high up in on the hill called Villa Olga. Clean, cool and comfortable (tick, tick, tick) plus amazing views. I would however recommend you book a place with a pool (unfortunately we didn’t assumed we were closer to the water) so after a long day of shopping a cold shower it was.
We spent 3 days in Capri and then took another chartered speedboat to Positano! This place is literally the images you see in ‘European summer prints’ crystal blue water (Positano is on the Amalfi Coast), cute and colourful buildings styled with an Italian influence set in to the high rock hills and a fabulous coastline littered with beach umbrellas and sun beds! Plenty of amazing outfits here too however the shopping is more ‘market style’ then designer but still a great way to waste a day if you ever get sick of the beach.
Finally we have arrived in Dubai where we will be for our last 3 nights. On first impressions - 3 days does not look enough! Driving through the city and arriving at our accommodation (The Atlantas) is like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Everything is big, bright and HUGE and I can see that just getting around the hotel could easily take up a day or two as it is host to aquariums, water park, wave pool, restaurants, shopping and so much more. On my to do list is shopping of course however I am planning to hit the shopping centre and see if Dubai lives up to its reputation of being the best shopping in the world!
After a hard couple of years due to covid, I hope you too have plans to pack your bags and enjoy all the amazing places this wonderful has to offer!

FOR THE CAKE:
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup shelled pistachios
¾ cup good-quality extra-virgin olive oil
3 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste (or extract)
Zest of 1 lemon (roughly 1 tablespoon)
Juice of 1 lemon (roughly 3 tablespoons)
½ cup buttermilk
1½ cups granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
FOR SERVING:
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 cup powdered sugar
Additional pistachios, chopped Lemon slices
Fresh berries
FOR THE CAKE:
1. Preheat the oven to 180C. Liberally spray a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
2. Place the pistachios in a food processor and pulse until they are finely ground.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, vanilla, lemon zest and juice, and buttermilk. Whisk in the sugar.
4.Measure out 1 cup of the ground pistachios and add to a second bowl (reserve the rest for serving). Whisk in the flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until everything is just combined. Resist the urge to overmix (this results in a dry, dense cake).
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 4050 minutes or until golden brown around the edges and set in the middle (insert a toothpick in the center and if it comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs, the cake is done).
7. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan and then carefully run a knife around the edges and release the springform sides. Transfer to a serving plate.
FOR SERVING:
Whisk together the lemon juice and zest and powdered sugar until a thick but pourable glaze forms.Pour the glaze over the cake, as liberally as you want. Garnish with chopped pistachios, lemon slices, and fresh berries – all optional!
Slice and serve!

Sunnyboy offers a corner store, plants and coffee to go - a space filled with good chats, good plants and real good coffee.
Sunnyboy owners and wives, Ella and Bella are the new kids on the block in Evans but they’re oldies in the hospitality industry.
Having worked at Flock, The Farm, Elk Espresso, Belle General and The Bakers Duck (among others)... opening their own space was a natural progression.
Off the back of a year long trip around remote Australia in their swag, Ella and Bella started plotting their next adventure- a venue of their own.
Originally sussing out shop fronts everywhere from Alstonville to Tenterfield, the girls stumbled across their now corner store while stopping at the Liberty for fuel one afternoon after the beach.They knew instantly that it was the one, despite having no savings and no business plan. A partnership was quickly (and joyfully)
formed with Allpress Espresso who supported Sunnyboy from it’s infancy to it’s opening...bringing THAT galah pink La Marzocco machine to life!
Sunnyboy is a tribute to every roadhouse, corner store, pub, market stall and trinket trove that they found along their journey- choosing local produce, aboriginal owned products, Australian made ceramics, plants grown lovingly in the Northern Rivers and pastries hand-baked just down the road.
Above all else, Ella and Bella want their store to spark joy for everyone who wanders in.

What an enormous privilege to be offering my favourite home in Girards' Hill for sale.
When I first visited this magnificent home a few years ago, I simply could not believe what I was seeing, being so close to downtown Lismore. Let me give you a quick overview of the property then into detail of what the home has to offer to even the most discerning buyer.
Upon entering the front door you are immediately overwhelmed by the feeling of walking into a grand English home. Walking out to the large rear deck you are immediately in Bali. Continuing further to the rear of the yard, yes finally in Australia with all the beautiful trees and lawn. Three countries all on one property. This is how I saw it when the owners were In residence with all their beautiful furniture and paintings that suited the home so well.
This understated 4 bedroom, brick and tile home has side access to a workshop style garage and also allows access to Currajong Street just behind the property which can be used as a convenient short cut to Airforce beach.

The rest of the home, except the bedrooms, are tiled with the kitchen overlooking the second lounge. The kitchen has a wide wrap around bench perfect for preparing food whilst entertaining.
