ave you ever had a spring clean?

Feels good, doesn’t it? Previous generations used to have one every year – they would scrub out the kitchen and turn the mattresses, wash all the curtains and fix any broken furniture, clean all the windows and paint the fence.

We think that de-cluttering is a new trend, but our ancestors were doing it before there was a term for it. They knew the importance of welcoming in the warmer weather with this cleansing ritual. Maybe that’s what’s wrong with contemporary society – we don’t spring clean enough. We live in a throw-away society and yet we have never had so much stuff cluttering up our homes, and our minds.

This week we are celebrating spring and in our cover story we get into the spring cleaning, with some tips on clearing out your

Spring into action HARNESS THE ENERGY OF SPRING TO REINVIGORATE ALL AREAS OF YOUR LIFE. BY JEMMA PEARSON

S

omewhere deep in our heritage (or maybe it’s in our DNA?), we latched onto spring as a time of great home renewal. After the dust has piled up all winter, we suddenly have this urge to purge our clutter and tackle the grime. The hardest part is getting started.

Seeking needed motivation and direction in this unending battle on dirt, we turned to the experts – those who clean professionally year-round.

“We do it every day,” says Betty Nicholson, founder of US organisation Mothers Cleaning Co-op.

This time of year always places increased demand on professional cleaners. “In spring, people want to tackle the big jobs,” Nicholson says.

“Windows, that’s always big in spring cleaning.

“Mainly when I think of spring cleaning, it’s thorough,” she adds.

“Empty the cupboards. Move everything. Pull the house apart and clean top to bottom. Every surface that ever gets touched gets wiped.

Open the windows and start fresh.”

House cleaning really does get easier with routine, say the pros.

Steve and Paula Mumm, who operate Merry Maids cleaning service, have been helping clients conquer dirt for two decades. But

before you can dust and polish the furniture, you have to be able to f nd the benchtops.

Get rid of clutter, say the Mumms. That’s a broad category in their clean perspective; if you can’t put it away, it’s clutter.

They offer this anti-clutter assault plan. Divide it into three groups – junk, charity and undecided. Toss or recycle the f rst, give away the second and store the third in a box or bag until you can decide whether it’s really worth keeping.

Cleaning is also easier with the

right tools. Old cloth nappies or T-shirts work well for most jobs.

“People used to clean with just a rag for generations,” Nicholson says.

Sponges are a must. So are soft-bristle brushes, rubber gloves and a squeegee.

Assemble a cleaning carry-all, the Mumms say. Store all your basic cleaning supplies in a cleaner’s apron or bucket and carry them with you from task to task.

Having the right tools yields M Y W EEK LY PREVIEW.C OM .A U

SPRING TRIVIA • Spring in Australia starts on September 1.

professional-looking results. The Mothers’ secret weapon for big jobs is steam. They use a residential steam cleaner which has become a huge hit with both clients and cleaners.

But before you bring out the tools you have to have a strategy. So how do you attack a messy house? Clean top to bottom, say the Mumms.

Use the same approach to each room, one at a time, until the house is done.

The Mumms have a method. Dust f rst, vacuum last. Go over the carpet twice, changing direction; vacuum from east to west and north to south.

Cut down on streaks by scrubbing, wiping and polishing in straight lines (if wood, with the grain) instead of circles. To clean windows and mirrors like a pro, squeegee the surface with an initial horizontal stroke across the top, then top-down vertical strokes, wiping the blade after each stroke.

The job will get done faster if you give cleaning solutions time to work. Spritz benches, mirrors and surfaces in the bath and kitchen. Let them sit while you scrub the sink, tub and toilet, then go back and wipe them clean.

Finally, defy dust from coming back – or at least slow it down, the Mumms say. Replace vacuum bags monthly and don’t miss air vents when you dust and vacuum.

With winter’s grime a memory, take time to enjoy the results of your effort. Open the windows and let the spring air in.

• It would make sense then, that in the northern hemisphere, spring starts on March 1, but it varies from country to country, starting on different days and for different reasons. In Sweden, for example, spring starts at the time when the average daytime temperature is more than zero degrees for seven consecutive days.

• In the UK the authorities can’t agree on a date – some say it is March 1, others stick to March 21. Most Brits trust nature to tell them when it’s spring.

• Spring fever is the idea that at this time of year we experience a lift in vitality and sexual appetite. And it’s not a myth. Due to the changes in diet and temperature, many people do notice physiological changes in themselves.

• Children tend to grow faster in spring.

• The season for British 1970s progressive rock band Spring didn’t last long – they released just one album.

• Spring is also the name of the Flemish TV soap that ran from 2002 to 2007.

• The downside for allergy sufferers is that spring is also the season for sneezes as plants and trees release irritating pollens.

Bless you!

• Some flowers we associate with spring include daffodils, dandelions, lillies and tulips.

Refresh your life A good spring clean used to mean a thorough scrub down of the house, before packing away the winter gear and bringing out the summer stuff, and while spring is certainly a good time to get the house in order, the spring clean has been taken to a new level.

Not just a time for a physical clean, spring is also the perfect season to take a look at what’s not working in your life, or what can be improved – whether it’s the mind and body or external factors such as your relationships, your job or money.

It’s time for a change, and while dramatic ones such as quitting your job can be a revelation, even small changes can put you in a good place for the season ahead.

So where to start? Well, with yourself.

Body…

If you’ve let the exercise regime slip in the cooler months it’s time to f nd it again. While f tness is important for your health – and let’s face it, we all want to f t back into our summer clothes – movement clears the cobwebs and releases all those hormones that make us feel happy.

There is no need to sign up for boot camp and a 12-month gym membership. The sun is up earlier, so just set your alarm and start with a 20-minute walk before work. Do it consistently and form a habit.

Buy yourself some new exercise gear and you’ll be amazed how you’ll feel more motivated to train.

A few changes to your diet will also help – as the weather gets warmer, it’s much easier to reintroduce salads and lighter meals. If you’re ready for something more serious, try a spring detox. Head to the local farmer’s markets and stock up on fruit and vegies, throw out the biscuits and processed foods and start the day with lemon continued over >

6 reasons to love spring on the Sunshine Coast

juice in warm water – that’ll get your liver going.

…and soul Are there people in your life who just aren’t good to be around? Do you hold onto relationships that aren’t healthy? It’s time to let them go. Even if it’s a few Facebook friends you f nd frustrating, moving on from these relationships, with kindness and respect, can be amazingly freeing.

Always wanted to learn the ukulele or sky dive? Spring is a great time to try new things.

Changing old habits and doing something new can be incredibly invigorating.

Or if you are just feeling negative and a bit f at from winter, grab some vitamin D. On your way to get a sandwich at lunchtime, take 10 minutes to sit outside. You’ll be surprised at the difference a bit of midday sun on bare skin can make.

As part of your spring clean you’ve probably cleared out your cupboards, but don’t forget to buy some new threads. And don’t forget new underwear. You’ll be surprised how uplifting a drawer full of new undies can be.

• Finally feeling the sun on your skin • The anticipation of mangoes and watermelon • Longer days and warmer evenings • Popping away the jeans and bringing out the dresses

Clean up your finances Spring is the perfect time to take a look at your f nances. So pull out the paperwork and consolidate debts, f nd lost super and re-evaluate your super fund and mortgage. For more f nance tips head to page 26 for advice from Ord Minnett.

• Enjoying the outdoor deck before it gets too hot • Open windows and fresh breezes

YOU DON’T HAVE TO RETIRE IN THE RED A cup of tea & the opportunity to have all those questions answered for FREE

No matter what standard of living you currently lyy enjoy there is often a worry that it will be eroded ed d after retirement. It’s a legitimate concern and this may be your chance to nail the problem once and for all.

CHECK ...

Does any of the following reflect your thoughts? s? ?

CC19651

1.

2.

How much should I have to be able to retire?

Will Centerlink supplement our retirement income and by how much?

3. I wonder how long our funds would last with a Centerlink supplement if we got one?

4. Maybe it would be smarter to remain working part time?

5. Maybe working part time would see us no better off than getting a Centerlink subsidy right now?

6. I am old enough to retire but my partner has not yet reached retirement age? I wonder if it’s possible for my partner to retire with me?

7. What can we invest in after retirement that is safe? There are no second chances if we lose the bit we’ve got at our age.

8. Maybe we should sell our house and buy something smaller to free up more money to invest.

9. Perhaps we should have money set aside for an emergency fund too.

10. We have always wanted to do some travel when we retired too, so that expense will have to be taken into consideration.

BUSINESSES ON THE MOVE

he business started in Steve Budden’s Witta garage 13 years ago.

Today, Budden is one the Coast’s biggest employers with nearly 80 staff and his company Australian Off Road exports camper trailers around Australia.

Last week Budden and wife Rhonda celebrated the off cial opening of new custom-built premises at the industrial park in Caloundra, marking a massive company expansion with room for future growth.

Despite being in an industry performing below par, Australian Off Road has experienced year-on-year growth since its inception with no signs of slowing down.

“Business is really good,” Budden says. “The industry is down 10 per cent, some say even more, but we’re doing really well.”

He is unsure if they are doing

Steven and Rhonda Budden celebrate the grand opening of their new business premises better than others in the industry but his sales keep going up and that’s all he’s worried about.

“We design our own products and we manufacture from the ground up,” he says.

They build one trailer on average every two days and have a monthly turnover of one million dollars.

They celebrated the opening with a customer rally, which saw more than 30 clients from around Australia join in with their camper trailers.

Another Coast company that has moved to new premises is Highgrove Bathrooms at Kawana.

Owner Ildi Udvary says the relocation to the site of the former Harvey Norman on Nicklin Way at Minyama does not mark an increase in the size of their showroom but is an economic decision.

“Our company, we’re expanding every day,” Udvary says.

“We relocated because this is a better location.”

She advised those businesses who are feeling the pinch should consolidate and keep advertising and make sure they provide a product or service that consumers need.

“I think we’ve just hit the market,” she says.

“We offer the market something they need, our pricing is second to none and our quality is second to none.”

PHONE VOTING FOR BLIND A new voting system is giving blind and low vision people more options with a telephone voting system, enabling them to cast a secret vote. It is the f rst federal election in which blind and low vision people can cast their vote from any location. Eligible voters can register for the service by calling 1800 913 993.

DO YOU READ REVIEWS? University of the Sunshine Coast Honours student, Ashleigh Druce, is studying how people’s attitudes are inf uenced by online reviews of products they want to buy.

“Hopefully, the results will show which types of product reviews have an impact on consumer attitudes”, she says. For more details or to contribute to her research, send Ashleigh an email at aed003@student.usc.edu.au.

Graham Ashford, Dr Terry Lucke, Dr Sanjeev Kumar Srivastava, Dr Uwe Terton and Dr Ross Watkins were awarded the prestigious annual citations from the Australian Government’s Off ce for Learning and Teaching.

The f ve academics lecture in the areas of environmental economics, civil engineering, geospatial analysis, computer-based design and creative writing.

They will receive their $10,000 citations at the 2013 Australian Awards for University Teaching at Brisbane’s Gallery of Modern Art on September 24.

USC has won 28 OLT citations over the past f ve years.

Kokoda hospital receives lifesaving generator from Maroochy RSL Maroochy RSL deputy president Len Thompson will travel to Kokoda in September to ensure the safe delivery of a generator to support the local community.

The generator will be vital to the Kokoda hospital’s safe operation, replacing an unreliable 17-year-old generator, which only runs four hours a night.

“The new generator will be more economical and operate longer with the same

amount of diesel that the hospital gets each day; it will just make a huge difference as you can imagine,” Thompson says.

The challenge will be in rallying local workers to relocate the generator to the town, as no heavy machinery is available for the job.

A container packed with clothes, cooking utensils, medical supplies, reading glasses and bicycles is also being delivered.

Year one students from Caloundra City Private School dressed up for Book Week

Kids get into Book Week spirit Sunshine Coast schools celebrated Book Week with plenty of fun and frivolity last week.

Caloundra City Private School students analysed fairy tales, discussing the morals behind them, wrote their own stories, designed ‘wanted’ and ‘missing’ posters for villains and menus for Cinderella’s Ball, and made houses for the Three Little Pigs out of recycled materials.

Students at Sunshine Coast Grammar School also took part in Book Week with an Across the Universe theme where staff dressed up as characters from Star Wars.

PUSH FOR SOAP IN SCHOOLS

fter tackling the bigticket issues of overpopulation and birth control, Bindi Irwin is now putting her weight behind toilet hygiene.

The teenage environmental crusader has been named as the ambassador of GrimeStoppers, a campaign to get the federal government “to provide hygiene legislation for schools”.

In other words, the 15-year-old wants all schools and public spaces to be equipped with soap.

“At the moment government legislation does not require public schools to have soap in their restrooms, which I think is really sad,” Irwin says in a new video message promoting the campaign.

“So I think it’s really important to encourage kids to wash their hands after using the bathroom, before returning to school.”

The initiative is part of Children’s Global Hygiene Foundation, which will attempt to break two Guinness Book of Records on Global Handwashing Day on October 15.

The f rst step is to get the most number of people from different nationalities to wash their hands in one location, and the other is to get the most number of people washing their hands in numerous locations at once.

Earlier this year, Irwin made headlines when she spoke out after an essay she penned on the threat of over-population and the need for birth control was heavily edited by US authorities.

Chalky teeth affects one in six Australian children and leads to major dental problems. No amount of brushing or flossing can prevent it and there’s no cure, but early detection can help save the teeth.

The most common symptoms are creamy-brown or very white spots on a child’s teeth. Dentists are worried they are the only people who know about it and want parents and GPs to be alert, particularly around the age of six.

“Chalky teeth are teeth that have not developed properly,” says Dr Loch Ramalingam, a paediatric hospital dentist. “It has nothing to do with diet or hygiene.”

The condition is probably caused by childhood illness while the teeth are developing inside the jaw. Visit thed3group.org for more information. AAP

INDIA’S BOLD FOOD SCHEME

PAUL PRESCOTT / SHUTTERSTOCK.COM

N

EW DELHI – India’s parliament has passed a flagship $US18 billion ($20 billion) program to provide subsidised food to the poor that is intended to “wipe out” endemic hunger and malnutrition in the aspiring superpower.

The Food Security Bill – a key scheme seen as a vote-winner by the ruling Congress party ahead of national elections next year – was adopted in the lower house after a nine-hour debate.

Meira Kumar, speaker of the lower house announced the passage of the bill, saying: “The ayes have it.

The motion is adopted and the bill as amended is passed.”

In a rare speech in parliament, Congress party chief Sonia Gandhi told MPs to send a message to the world that India was ready to eradicate malnutrition, which Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has described as a “national shame”.

“The big message which will go out to the country and rest of the

world is clear and concrete: that India is taking the responsibility of providing food security of all its citizens,” she said.

Gandhi was later admitted to a hospital in the capital suffering from a fever, according to a party leader.

India already runs the world’s biggest food distribution system covering hundreds of millions of people, but the Food Security Bill will offer grains at lower prices and attempt to better target the needy.

LIVING WITH HEARING LOSS Hearing and quality of life are closely linked. Poor hearing affects both the person with the loss and those they communicate with. A comprehensive study conducted in the USA on the effects of untreated hearing loss on adults as well as their families found that hearing loss impacts on our social, emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing.

People with hearing impairment can experience: • Embarrassment • Loss of conf dence • Irritability and anger • Depression • Feeling of being ignored • Dependence on others • Withdrawal, isolation and loneliness • Exclusion from family and social activities • Tiredness Other people, such as family members and close friends, may f nd themselves: • Talking for the other person • Continually having to explain or interpret • Sacrif cing some activities (eg. theatre, parties) • Making assumptions about what hard of hearing person thinks or needs • Frustrated • Embarrassed in company • Tired

MEXICO – As Mexican children troop back into their classrooms, they’ll learn it’s not just kids who make mistakes.

Their brand new textbooks have the kinds of errors that they are supposed to be learning not to make: words written with a ‘c’ instead of an ‘s’, too many commas, not enough accents and at least one city located in the wrong state.

The foul-up is becoming a national embarrassment in the midst of a planned government overhaul of Mexico’s much criticised school system.

Teachers are being given a list of the errors so they can try to manually correct at least 117 mistakes the Education Department acknowledged it found only after 235 million textbooks had been printed.

“It’s unfortunate these things happen with the children’s textbooks,” said Consuelo Mendoza, president of the national parent teachers association. “We are talking about the education of millions of children.”

Education Secretary Emilio Chuayffet has called the errors “unforgivable”, but he blames Mexico’s previous administration for the stumble.

He says he was faced with the predicament of choosing between stopping the printing of f awed textbooks so they could be corrected and making sure the country’s 26 million school children had textbooks at the start of classes.

Freelance editors who get paid less than $US250 a month missed the errors in the new texts, commission head Joaquin Diez-Canedo says.

“The telephone rings, you have to go to the bathroom. You get distracted. You miss a word,” he says.

] THE WEEK THAT WAS

BREATHE NEW LIFE INTO YOUR FINANCES

Justin Scattini is from Ord Minnett in Buderim

S

pring has come early this year and thoughts have moved to doing a good spring clean.

Depending on the level of neglect, this can seem a daunting task.

Like all diff cult and complex tasks, it is best to break it down to smaller, more achievable jobs you can check off one by one. Once you have checked them all off, you can sit back and relax. The process is much the same when dealing with your investments. We have put together a list to follow for a portfolio spring clean. We call it an annual review.

Step 1: Ref ect on what you want to achieve. Think about what may have changed in your f nancial situation

that requires you to reassess your goals. What level of income do you require? How important is capital preservation to you? How much growth will you need to achieve your goals? Are those goals realistic?

Step 2: Decide on the appropriate asset allocation that will have a high probability of achieving your goals without taking on excessive risks. It is important that you have a properly diversif ed portfolio of Australian and international shares, property, f xed interest and cash.

You need enough growth assets to achieve your ultimate goals and enough low volatility investments so that you can sleep well at night.

Step 3: Check how your investment portfolio compares to the ideal asset allocation you have identif ed above. You may need to rebalance your portfolio and allocate funds from asset classes where you are overexposed and redirect the funds to asset classes where you are underweight.

Step 4: Drag all your investments

into the cold light of day and decide what is worth keeping and what should be sold. It is important that you are also well diversif ed with each asset class that you are invested in.

Avoid a portfolio that is dominated by any one sector regardless of how promising it may seem. A simple rule is to think of your portfolio as cash.

Which of your current investments would you buy on the market today with that cash? If you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy an investment now, why are you continuing to hold it? What would be your tax position if they were sold?

Where should you invest the money?

Step 5: Take action. Make the necessary changes and commit to giving your portfolio a spring clean every year. If you f nd the task too much to contemplate, call in the professionals to help you through the process.

Happy dance WE CAN’T CHOOSE TO WIN THE LOTTERY BUT WE CAN CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY

H

appiness is something we constantly seek, it makes us feel glad to be alive and even scientists tell us it has the power to heal and extend life. But all too often it’s elusive.

“Happiness is as invisible as electricity and just as powerful,” says Lois Blyth, author of The Secrets Of Happiness: How To Love Life, Laugh More, And Live Longer.

There is, of course, no single path to happiness, but the happiness habit is an easy one to acquire, Blyth believes. “The diff cult bit for some people is choosing to step away from unhappiness and deciding wholeheartedly, and with total commitment, that happiness is something that they really do want – and that they deserve.”

The danger, she warns, is that discontent can become a familiar ref ex and we can drift along in a state of grumbling dissatisfaction, sometimes for years, blaming circumstances, waiting for something to happen, and f nding every excuse not to make changes that could transform life and make ourselves

happier. Blyth’s tips to help attain the happiness habit include: THINK LIKE A LOTTERY WINNER If you ever have dreams of winning the lottery, you imagine all sorts of things you might get because you would have no f nancial constraints.

But material possessions are passive and cannot love us, talk to us or make us laugh. Instead, use your imagination to work out how you can ‘change’ yourself and start becoming the person you ideally want to be.

FACE THE FEAR The pathways to happiness appear in many guises, and not all of them are immediately recognisable as ways you would want to venture down, she says. “Often they may look strange, threatening, full of obstacles, too far from home, and generally too frightening to take,” says Blyth. “But happiness is closely related to feelings of positive self-worth and achievement – we need to take calculated risks in order to grow and develop self-respect.”

HEALING HUG Getting physical with someone else can reduce stress levels, reduce cortisol levels and increase the production of oxytocin, a ‘happy’ hormone, in the body, says Blyth. “Make a mental note to hug a friend, get a massage, hold hands with a loved one, stroke a pet, make love, go dancing, and generally to be more physical,” she says.

RESET GRUMBLE REFLEX Listen to yourself talking, in the same way you would listen to a GPS navigation system, says Blyth.

“Imagine what it would be like to have a grumbling GPS in your car which was always spouting negative messages: ‘what a shame you didn’t take another route’ or ‘the traff c’s bound to delay us’,” she suggests.

Instead, she advises, try to always say something positive f rst, before negativity kicks in. Laugh at things that annoy you and try to see possibility instead of the problem.

Happiness embraces opportunity.

DON’T DELAY Procrastination is a major enemy of happiness, says Blyth. To remedy this, she suggests buying a year planner and putting on tasks you would like to complete, but allow yourself double the time you think necessary to achieve each one. If you f nd you haven’t made a start as planned, tell yourself you have three choices: to extend the deadline, to ask someone to help you achieve it on time, or both. “Once you discover the joy of completing tasks in good time, your belief in yourself will slowly change – and you will have time to be happy on your own terms,” she says.

TAP INTO A NEW BEER EXPERIENCE NC CE be Hot 91.1 FM breakfast host Todd Widdicombe gives his opinion on the best brews of the week. eek k.

Man, life’s busy isn’t it? If I had a dollar for every time I got distracted... I wish I had a jet ski.

Because we’ve built a friendship over the months you’ve been reading this column, I want you to know that if I’m ‘round your joint and you tell me to make myself at home, I will take off my pants, yell at your kids and drink all your beers.

For those peeps who still believe beer makes you fat, it’s not true. It makes you lean... against tables and walls. Jokes aside, I have been taking it easy lately. I don’t know about you, but I only drink on special occasions, like when it’s raining and when it’s not.

This week friends, we are road testing the awesomeness of the Lionel Richie-endorsed Tap King.

Seriously, along with bacon, this

could genuinely be God’s greatest creation. I’m all over this like Prince William on a comb over.

The Tap King is pretty new.

You’d have seen the ace ads on the telly with the merchant of soul, Lionel Richie, playing the piano in the back of a dude’s fridge and then handing out a freshly poured brew.

Now it’s available for all of us to experience the prolif c joy this mini-keg system brings. Seriously Kemosabe, thanks to this amazing invention, you can whirl into your fridge and go nuts with genuine draught beer any time you like. It’s easy to set up, there’s a pretty good range of beers to choose from like GOLD, TEDS and Hahn Super Dry, and it’s totally your ticket to becoming a world famous beerista.

If you reckon the Heineken Keg goes all right, you’re gonna love this like Lindsay Lohan loves a powder-coated coffee table.

The mini keg I’ve sampled for ya – yep Toddy is yet again taking one for the team and putting his body on the experimental line – is the bonza James Squire Chancer Golden Ale.

It’s a tops beer in stubby form, but seriously cracking stuff when you drink it Tap King style.

The mini kegs are 3.2 litres, which is roughly 11 pots, and this amber gold stays fresh for 21 days.

Of course, I encourage drinking beer in moderation, remembering excessive consumption can cause memory loss or worse, memory loss.

I’m stoked at this new technology and if this is the result of years of research and hard work, then I’m more than happy to forgive the boff ns of science for not producing f ying cars or hover boards – yet.

<< What the heck is a feijoa?

Pronounced fee-jo-ah, this fruit is from the myrtle family and is native to South America. Sometimes called guavasteen, the fruit has a distinct, perfume-like fragrance, and when ripe, its clear pulp and juicy f esh has a sweet, aromatic taste.

The feijoa is perfect for using in baking or jam, and more ambitious chefs can also include it in curries and salsas. Feijoa trees are common in New Zealand gardens, but many Sunshine Coast residents are yet to try one. Luckily, Hinterland Feijoas produces jam and chutneys right here on the Coast, and will also courier a box of fresh, organic feijoas right to your door.

STEER CLEAR OF RIP-OFFS

Tailgating top gripe for QLD drivers, survey

motoring report has found used car buyers are being ripped off by dodgy sellers with each fraud costing an average of $4400.

The report, from vehicle history site CarHistory.com.au, reveals that more than 120,000 Australians fall victim to car fraud or deceit each year.

“They’re not doing the research and they’re just being ripped off,” head of the website David Scognamigli tells AAP. “About 13 per cent of the cars that we see pass through our systems have negative data about them.

“Unfortunately there are a lot of people out there who are willing to deceive unsuspecting used car buyers, with 17 per cent of sellers saying they would not tell a potential buyer that the car had been written off and repaired.”

Scognamigli says consumers are buying f ood-damaged cars, cars that had been written off, cars with changed Vehicle Identif cation Numbers (VIN) and stolen vehicles.

Cricks Maroochydore dealer principal Sam Bohner says when you buy from licensed motor dealers these things are usually covered for you, although he recommends getting the vehicle independently inspected for extra peace of mind.

“The f rst thing you need to do is make sure there is no money owing on the car,” Bohner says.

Queensland motorists expect more road courtesy from their fellow drivers, according to RACQ’s latest research.

The RACQ’s annual What Drives You Crazy? survey asked its members to rate the most frustrating driver behaviours and tailgating, not allowing others to merge, and speeding up while being overtaken all made the top 10.

RACQ senior road safety advisor Joel Tucker says tailgating returned to the number one position, after it last topped the survey two years ago.

“It is clear tailgating is an ongoing frustration for Queensland motorists,” Tucker says.

“Drivers who follow cars too closely are putting themselves and others in danger, as they increase the likelihood of a crash if they need to stop suddenly.”

Other annoying behaviours highlighted in the survey include littering, texting and talking on hand-held mobile phones, and aggression.

Tucker says the results indicate a return to general road rules enforcement by police is needed.

“However, the onus ultimately is on the individual, and motorists have a responsibility to follow the rules, and more importantly adopt a courteous approach that respects other drivers.

A

Buyers should also understand what their warranty is.

He says most dealers offer at least three months, while bigger dealers will provide f ve or six years of warranty and there is no warranty with private sales.

The other important thing is to make sure it hasn’t been included on the written off vehicle’s register.

“They’re the things as a consumer you need to know,” Bohner says.

Scognamigli says people often rely on a mate to check the car they are buying but they should be more thorough.

He also recommends buyers get a mechanical inspection and they should target cars that have been driven on average about 14,000 kilometres a year.

AAP

“Slowing down and paying attention could save your life and ensure you reach your destination.”

What Drives You Crazy? survey top 10 frustrating behaviours 2013: 1. Tailgating 2. Throwing litter out of vehicles 3. Motorists who talk/send SMS on hand-held mobiles 4. Motorists who increase their speed when you try to overtake them 5. Motorists who aren’t courteous e.g., allowing room to merge/ change lanes 6. Incorrect use of indicators e.g., indicate too late or fail to indicate at all 7. Displaying aggressive behaviour e.g., blowing horn, verbal abuse or hand signals 8. Ignoring restricted speed limits e.g., at school zones or roadwork sites 9. Motorists who don’t move over to allow others to overtake 10. Turning from the wrong lane e.g., at multi-lane roundabouts.

MORE BUYERS THAN SELLERS Print marketing performs

Outstanding result for vendors

Concerns about the future of print marketing are well and truly premature. For an auction in Pakee Street in Alexandra Headland the marketing produced 61 inspections prior to auction, and seven registered bidders on the day. While the internet had over 580 hits but only 12 actual enquiries and seven physical inspections, MWP delivered 49 groups to the home.

The result was a sale well over reserve. It’s very clear that active buyers are reading MWP.

112 Mountain Creek Road, Buderim was marketed in MWP, achieved 45 groups through open homes resulting in three registered bidders and sold one day post auction. A great result for the vendors and some very happy new owners. Thanks MWP – you’ve done it again.

Sold prior to auction 1A Mountain Ridge Crescent, Buderim sold in two weeks prior to auction with 27 inspections coming from MWP marketing program. This is a fantastic result!

Craig Porter, Next Property Group

Better than the net

At 18 Whitecross Road, Bli Bli we didn’t even make it to auction, selling unconditionally prior for $630,000. The buyers read the ad that morning in MWP and looked at only one property, before buying in Bli Bli. Thanks to MWP, great result for all concerned.

Steve Perry, Acreage Specialist RE/MAX Outstanding Agents

We experienced a massive increase in inspections from our MWP campaign. At 7 Parkview Terrace, Buderim we ran a fourweek campaign in MWP. The f rst weekend was internet only and we had just four inspections, the second weekend we had a half-page ad in MWP and had 21 inspections over two days.

With advertisements for three consecutive weeks, we then saw a total of 52 inspections. The seller has been extremely pleased with the results of the marketing campaign.

A quick result!

Sold, sold, sold On a roll with MWP Momentum built over a four-week campaign to SOLD! We recently auctioned two units in Mooloolaba International with a focus on promotion through MWP. The interest levels built over the four weeks and we sold both properties within a week of the auction day.

For 72 Baayna Street, Wurtulla we had a four-week marketing campaign in MWP, with 21 inspections during open homes and one conditional offer BEFORE auction day. On the day we had four registered bidders with 20 bids received and it sold under the hammer. Thank you MWP. Andy Camm RE/MAX Property Services

We need properties!

At the auction of 9A Bell Road, Buderim we had 35 groups, multiple bidders and it SOLD under the hammer. Marketed exclusively with MWP, it was a great result.

If you’re thinking about selling, now is the time – see below for recent success stories

Great result

It’s all about numbers

75 per cent of potential buyers came from MWP for 285 Diddillibah Road, Diddillibah, which sold under the hammer, with 30 groups through and four registered bidders. It was a fantastic result, selling for $565,000.

To achieve a premium result when selling, you need to attract all the prospective buyers to create competition. A recent four-week campaign in both print and the internet produced 29 group inspections. MWP produced 21 of those buyers, three written offers and the successful purchaser. The result was a record sale in the street and the sellers were very happy. MWP outperforms time and again.

Sparkle and shine HOME BUYERS ARE ON THE HUNT AND IF YOU’RE SELLING, NOW IS THE TIME TO TREAT YOUR HOME TO A SPRING MAKEOVER, SAYS JARNA BAUDINETTE

S

pring is in the air, and if you read last week’s issue of MWP you’ll know things are looking up for the local property market, with agents reporting more buyers and higher sales volumes. Keen to take advantage of the spring selling season? Here are a few tips to get your house ready to sell.

Neat and tidy

Most buyers do a drive-by before they commit to inspecting a property, and that initial impression can make or break a sale. With winter barely behind us, it’s likely your gardens could do with some sprucing up. If you’re a green thumb, start weeding, pruning and trimming in the front and backyards; if not, get a local landscaper or garden maintenance team to do the job for you – it’ll be worth the small cost. At the very least, be sure to rake up any dead leaves, give the pool area a good clean and treat your lawn to some fertiliser.

Once the gardens are done, consider your home’s overall street appeal. Could your fence or window trimmings do with a coat of paint? Are there leaves and branches cluttering the gutters? [ 40 ] MY W EEKLY P RE VIE W \ AUG UST 30, 201 3

40.indd 1

Don’t forget to look at your external walls – after a windy, rainy winter they may be a bit grimy, so hiring a pressure cleaner (try one with the new steam function) to clean them will make your home stand out on the street.

Cut the clutter

Prospective buyers need to be able to imagine themselves living in your home, which means they need to be able to imagine their own furniture, accessories and knick-knacks in it too. This means it’s time to pack away all the unnecessary items you’ve got laying around the house. It’s a good opportunity to clear your kitchen and bathroom benches, pack away the kids’ toys and f nally sort through that stack of magazines gathering dust on your off ce desk.

But don’t just shove everything into your wardrobe; it may be poor etiquette for buyers to look inside your cupboards during an open home, but if you’re at the point where you’re about to sign a contract, the buyer may ask to check the available storage space. Grab a few big plastic storage crates to pack away the unwanted items.

Air it out

Like most people, you’ve probably had your house closed up over winter to keep as much warmth in as possible. Now spring is here, take advantage of the warmer weather by throwing open your windows and doors. Letting fresh outside air circulate through your home will get rid of any damp or musty smells, and on inspection days, you can keep the interior smelling lovely with some fresh f owers.

A fresh coat

Repainting is one of the easiest ways to brighten up your home’s interior. One real estate agent MWP spoke to likened the effect of a new coat of paint to a new car smell – it makes your whole home look and smell fresh, and buyers will notice the difference.

To ensure your home will appeal to a wide range of prospective buyers, it’s best to stick with a fairly neutral colour scheme, and then invest in some bright cushions or rugs to add spark.

New lease on life

If you have some spare cash, consider updating your kitchen and bathrooms â&#x20AC;&#x201C; these rooms are key factors in most buyersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; decisions, and outdated f xtures and dĂŠcor could lead to them choosing another home over yours. A few simple improvements â&#x20AC;&#x201C; such as swapping your old tapware for contemporary chrome f ttings, repainting the kitchen cabinet doors or getting rid of that daggy shower curtain â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can add value in buyersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; eyes. Try to look at your house objectively to see which rooms could do with a makeover: it could be as easy as some new window coverings or decorative shelving.

If you have a bigger budget, a mini-renovation could boost your homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resale potential, but be careful not to overcapitalise by spending more than youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to recoup.

Flower er power

Spring is the ideal time to do some ome work in the garden, as many f ower varietiess are blooming and local nurseries urseries are brimming with stock. ock. If your garden is looking a little dreary, considerr adding some f owering plants, so tthe he he spring blooms brighten it up during thee inspection ion period. Remember, not all buyers will be avid gardeners, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bes best st to opt for easy-care, low-maintenance varietiess (your agent can also emphasise this during ring the marketing process). If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re unsure, pop into a nursery for advice, or hire a local landscaper to do the work for or you.

HOT TIP - Get styling If interior decorating isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your thing, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t despair â&#x20AC;&#x201C; bring in a professional property stylist, who will help to present your home in its best possible light to maximise its selling potential.

BUDERIM BECKONS MCGRATH ESTATE AGENTS

L

eading residential real estate group McGrath Estate Agents opened its first regional office on the Sunshine Coast this week.

The Buderim off ce is the brand’s eighth regional off ce in South-East Queensland, and McGrath chief executive John McGrath says the move is a natural progression, given the style and types of properties in the area, and their price points, f t well with the company’s brand and client demographic.

“The Sunshine Coast is a highly attractive area and one of the fastest growing regions in Australia,” McGrath says. “The development of the Maroochydore Central Business District and the new Sunshine Coast University Hospital at Kawana indicate the high level of infrastructure investment in the region and will boost demand for property and housing in the area.

“The Sunshine Coast has always been on our agenda but we have taken our time to f nd the right partners who are well established in the area, with the depth of knowledge and experience required.”

The McGrath Buderim franchise will be run by co-principals Chris Pace and Damien Michael, who have been working from McGrath’s Bulimba

McGrath Buderim co-principals Chris Pace and Damien Michael with John McGrath off ce since June. Both were formerly with Next Property Group, where Pace was the highest achieving sales agent in recent years after moving into real estate in 2008 following a 13-year career as a Channel 7 journalist.

Michael holds the house and apartment sales records on the central and southern Sunshine Coast, achieving a sale price of $8 million for a 100-acre property with an architecturally-designed seven-bedroom home in Forest Glen in March 2007. He also sold the Platinum Penthouse, a

luxury 1000-square metre apartment over three levels on the river’s edge in Maroochydore, for $5 million in August 2010.

“Damien and I have long been attracted to the McGrath brand, culture systems, training and ethos,” Pace says.

“Buderim offers a diverse range of properties from acreage living to river and ocean view homes, traditional Queenslanders and federation properties and new developments. The GFC did affect the market, but we are seeing strong signs of recovery with top end buyers returning to the $1 million plus market.”

He also points to some affordable buying opportunities, with April f gures from RPData showing a median house price in Buderim of $494,000 and $350,000 for units, both with gross rental yields of f ve per cent.

Pace and Michael plan to grow the off ce to 10 agents and will focus on the area from Coolum Beach in the north to Wurtulla in the south, Mooloolaba in the east and Rosemount in the west.

The off ce, the 54th in the McGrath network, will also offer property management services and mortgage broking will be offered through Oxygen Home Loans.

NOBODY IN THE WORLD SELLS MORE REAL ESTATE THAN RE/MAX.*

Northern Realty To Whom it may concern, If you’re thinking about listing your home and you’re not sure which agent to list with, may I suggest that you list with Petro Geyl of Remax Northern Realty. While it might not seem that the listing agent matters, let me tell you – it does.

Not all situations are alike. You may need to sell quickly, you may want to get the highest price even if it takes a bit longer, you might want to do improvements to reduce sales time but aren’t sure what will matter. Trust Petro. We listed our home with another agent before him and they never understood our unique situation. They used the same strategy they had used with every other client when the real estate business was easier… and they panicked when a quick sale didn’t happen.

Petro was patient. We worked the game plan together, and he gave wise counsel along the way. We did some judicious updating, tweaked the plan as we went along and we hit our goals. Most importantly, we sold our home for more than the prior agent thought possible.

Across the homes and cities we’ve lived in, there are only two agents we have done business with whom we trust implicitly, and in the Sunshine Coast Petro is it. If you want a listing on www.realestate.com.au and a sign in the front yard, you can get that anywhere. If you want a trusted partner, you want Petro.

Regardless of whether you are buying or selling, we would highly recommend Petro Geyl to help you in this life changing move. We could not have asked for a better Real Estate Agent to guide us through the process.

Yours faithfully, Ryan and Emma Conn

SOLUTIONS

ARIES Mar 21-Apr 20 Get your skates on, rams – and get urgent projects out of the way before the moon moves into Taurus mid-afternoon. Evening is the perfect time to relax with a favourite book or movie.

TAURUS Apr 21-May 21 Others may try to rush you this morning but keep going at your own steady pace, bulls. Friendships are favoured, as you help a mate who’s in need of some timely assistance.

GEMINI May 22-Jun 21 Group activities are favoured, so pal up with some kindred spirits.

“Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere” (Albert Einstein).

CANCER Jun 22-Jul 23 The more confident and proactive you are, the more successful you’ll be.

Looking for work? You need to think outside the square and find original ways to present yourself.

LEO Jul 24-Aug 23 With the sun shining in your sign – and the moon moving through your public zone – others are sitting up and taking notice of what you’re doing. Which is just the way lions like it!

VIRGO Aug 24-Sep 23 Has someone slighted you or criticised you unfairly?

With Venus visiting your sign, take it on the chin.

Then put your head down and just get on with the job at hand.

LIBRA Sep 24-Oct 23 A loved one will continue to surprise you so don’t waste time trying to work out what they’ll do next. Focus on your own personal path – especially at work. Fortune favours the brave.

SCORPIO Oct 24-Nov 22 Do you feel under pressure?

It’s time to walk the middle path, as you strive to get the ratio right between work demands and relationship responsibilities.

Balance is the key.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23-Dec 21 If you combine being proactive with being practical, then you’ll have a pleasant and productive day. But, if you rush and cut corners, then you’ll just have to re-do things later on.

CAPRICORN Dec 22-Jan 20 The focus is firmly on partnerships at the moment, Capricorn. The more energy and enthusiasm you put into communicating with loved ones, the better your relationships will be.

AQUARIUS Jan 21-Feb 19 Incorporating plenty of exercise and outdoor activities into your daily routine will shake your life up in positive ways. Choose a physical workout that is frequent, fun and fast.

PISCES Feb 20-Mar 20 You are very influenced by the moods of others today, so make sure you surround yourself with upbeat people who are contributing in positive ways. Creative projects are also favoured.

SURF REPORT

with MWP’s man in the water

Well, it’s going to be six foot at Asu and Afulu in North Sumatra on the weekend, so best you start dreaming about paddling into perfection, as you will not be doing that here. Flat is the word – and I mean pancake f at – and on top of that, those cheeky north easters look like they’re about to start blowing.

Whoopee!

My advice? Umm... book a trip with World Surfaris so you have something to train for and look forward to.

Or you can cry into your rum and Coke and reminisce about how good you used to be (works for me!).

The next ASP World Tour event is at Lower Trestles – Kelly Slater’s favourite. Let’s hope Parko makes it to the f nals to keep the dream alive, as it is shaping up like Pipeline might decide it again – how cool would that be?

FISHING REPORT

with Wayne Nilsson from Maroochydore Fishing World

ESTUARY: Quality whiting are taking worms and yabbies along the northern bank of Maroochy River and around Goat Island. Flathead on the drift from the Maroochy Bar to Twin Waters using plastics and live bait. Trevally and jew around the Maroochy Motorway Bridge using pillies and mullet f llet right on the top of the tide.

SURF: Plenty of dart in low-tide gutters along Kawana and Maroochy beaches with pippies the best baits.

Sand whiting are taking beach worms from Mudjimba to North Shore. Flathead at the Maroochy Bar. Tailor at Pincushion using pillies and shiny chrome lures during the day.

OFFSHORE: Mixed reef f sh around the Blinker and out to Murphy’s Reef. The southern end of the Barwon Banks is f ring for pearl perch, snapper, moses perch and parrot. Try drifting in the deeper water.

FRESHWATER: Noosa River is returning bass from Kin-Kin to Harry’s Hut with medium divers and live shrimp best. Lake McDonald has golden perch, bass and Mary River cod trolling deep divers just off the weed. Borumba looks a picture with the water clear and togas really going off for f y f shers.
