HOW TO WIN $1000 OFF YOUR RATES

WITH ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY RATES NOTICES

Rate notices are on their way and due for payment by Friday, February 23. Sunshine Coast ratepayers can put themselves in the running to save $1000 off their bill. Sunshine Coast Finance Portfolio Councillor

Ted Hungerford said ratepayers could give themselves a chance to win with just two easy steps. “Ratepayers who pay their rates online and sign up to receive their future rate notices by email will put themselves in the running to win $1000 off their next rate bill,” Cr Hungerford said. “Ratepayers who already receive their rate notices by email will automatically

be in the running to win if they pay their current rate bill via one of the convenient secure online options which are included on your rate notice.

“Ratepayers who still get their rate notices by traditional post can put themselves in the running to win by registering for a MyCouncil account or logging in to an existing account & changing their rate notice delivery method to email, before 5pm on Wednesday, February 21. “You can create your own MyCouncil account on Council’s website & once you’ve done that or logged into your existing account, all you need to do is click on ‘Update your rate notice delivery’ under the Property and

CELEBRATING THE MONTH OF LOVE

HELLO COMMUNITY,

"Love is in the air”! As we welcome the month of February, let's paint our neighbourhood with the colours of affection and unity. This is more than just a day; it's an opportunity to celebrate the unique & distinctive bonds that enrich our local

Let us wholeheartedly embody togetherness – a shared cup of tea with an elderly neighbour, a helping hand in tending to a garden, or a gesture like sharing surplus food.

Even a daily compliment to a perfect stranger, can illuminate our month of love.

Here's to an all-encompassing love that surrounds us, & the irreplaceable connections that make our neighbourhood extraordinary.

May we come together this month for love, laughter and shared moments that create

lasting memories.

Whether you're spending the day with a loved one, friends, a fur child or enjoying some self-appreciation, know that you are a valued part of this wonderful community.

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

If all else fails, I leave you with my silly sense of humour: -

Why did the tomato turn red on Valentine's Day?

Because it saw the salad dressing!

Warmest Regards, Darren Van Der Westhuizen

We are all very proud how it has all come together and the feedback has been great.

The group; Jeanette Smith Jen Jay Art painter, John Tonkin glass artist, Kate Parks painter, Shay Balmanno painter, Virginia Spencer-Bower Painter, Michelle Rudder painter,

TALKING PROPERTY

Unlocking the Door to Property Success: (Part 2)

Your Comprehensive Guide to Mastering the Art of Selling Real Estate in 2024

1Engage local agents & research the market

“Knowledge is power “according to Francis Bacon in 1597 & the same is true today. Request property appraisals from multiple agents to obtain diverse perspectives on value, market insights & strategies. This initial interaction provides you with an opportunity to acquaint yourself with local agents but will also provide valuable insight into the current property climate & market trends. Assess their expertise & discern whom you feel most comfortable with to entrust the sale of your property. Some agents may also offer valuable tips & advice on preparing your property for sale.

2Presentation is key Presentation can significantly increase the overall appeal of your property & increase the perceived value. Key elements to consider include regular property maintenance, cleaning & decluttering, pressure washing, a pristine coat of paint, & landscaping. Furthermore, curb appeal is important, as human nature prompts individuals to drive by a home to gauge interest before even entering the home. Lastly, the art of styling a property can further enhance its perceived value, adding a distinctive allure to captivate potential buyers.

3Set reasonable market expectations

Opting for a strategic approach that aligns with current market trends often yields a more favourable outcome. Pricing your property in line with market dynamics, expedites the sales process &

tends to fetch higher returns. A property lingering on the market with an inflated price tag can result in diminishing appeal, akin to perishable goods on a shelf. This approach tends to attract fewer buyers & leads to concessions in pricing. Rely on the guidance of a seasoned real estate professional, who can leverage their expertise & market insights to orchestrate a successful sales campaign.

4Optimise the timing of your property sale

Aim to position your property in a marketplace where it stands out in isolation rather than being overshadowed by similar listings. Choosing a period when the market has fewer comparable houses for sale can enhance your property's visibility & desirability. If you are re-entering the same market as a buyer, explore options such as an extended settlement period or a rent-back arrangement. Rely on the expertise of your real estate agent to formulate a well-timed & advantageous market strategy tailored to your specific circumstances.

5Enlist a local property professional

- Secure the assistance of a local real estate professional at the initial stages when considering selling a property. A seasoned real estate agent is an invaluable asset, bringing expertise in negotiation, insight into the market & marketing that can significantly enhance the value of your home. Research indicates that independent sellers typically experience prolonged processes & yield lesser returns. A skilled professional becomes an instrumental force in navigating the sales process & achieving an optimal sales price.

ADVOCATING FOR COMMUNITY SAFETY AND VITAL UPGRADES

NEW YEAR, NEW ROLE

I am pleased to share the news that I have been appointed to the role of Shadow Minister for Police and Community Safety.

Law and order is an issue I’ve always been passionate about, and I will continue to advocate on behalf of our hard working police to ensure they are given the resources and laws they need to keep our community safe.

Despite my new role, my priority remains listening to the concerns of locals, and fighting for those issues you’ve told me are the most important – the cost of living, housing security and affordability, access to health services, and of course, crime.

I’ll also be heading to other regional communities including Cairns, Townsville and Mt Isa as part of my role on the Youth Justice Select Committee this month to hear their stories and experiences of crime, before heading back to Parliament later this month.

IMPORTANT ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADES

Great to see work commence on the new $1million safety upgrades at the Scrub Road intersection on David Low Way. A pedestrian refuge will be installed on David Low Way, along with a dedicated right-hand turn at the intersection with Scrub Road.

In other exciting news, work is progressing on the $5million upgrades to replace the roundabout at Yandina-Coolum Road, School Road and South Coolum Road with a new

signalled intersection. For those that are not familiar with this project, this is the first step in our long running campaign to improve safety and bust congestion in Coolum.

ESCOOTERS

My office is receiving lots of complaints from locals about e-scooters and motorised bikes, with many users, particularly youth, showing complete disregard for the rules, including speeding and riding on footpaths, not wearing helmets, and generally risky behaviour. This is not acceptable, and it’s only a matter of time before someone is seriously injured. Our police are doing the best they can to enforce the rules, but I urge everyone who owns a mobile device, or parents of teenagers who regularly use them, to become familiar with the rules. In the meantime, proposed new regulations to further strengthen them are due to be debated in Parliament in coming months, and I welcome feedback from our community on what more we can do to better protect pedestrians and riders.

Details about the current rules is available at

NAVIGATING SUCCESSION LAW FOR FAIR ESTATE DISTRIBUTION

Many hold the view that as they have control of their possessions in life, they have control over what happens to their possessions after they pass away.

At common law, this view is the law.

However, it is also important to consider the needs of an individual’s family members, with consideration being given to what they receive from the individual’s estate.

What exists at law is a balance between an individual’s right to freedom of disposition and the needs of their family members following their passing.

Under the Succession Act 1981 a person can seek an order from the court in relation to an estate of a deceased to provide from that estate provision for:

- The Spouse;

- Child (including adopted and Step); or

- Dependent of the deceased.

This provision is provided notwithstanding what the terms of the Deceased’s may provide.

If you have been left out of the Will of a loved one and would like to lodge a claim, or you are

UNLOCKING OPPORTUNITIES WITH PROPERTY SHARE LOANS

Welcome back to the first edition of ‘Loans Unpacked’ for 2024. As you may have noticed by the change in branding and snazzy new photo, I have some exciting news to share! I recently joined Mason Finance Group as their newest Senior Mortgage Broker. Mason Finance Group is a boutique brokerage based in the heart of the Sunshine Coast and are known for their excellent customer service and dedication to getting the best possible outcome for their clients. Values which are close to my heart, and I’m looking forward to an incredible 2024 together.

But enough about me. Let’s talk about buying property jointly with family or friends, something that we’ve seen a surge in enquiries about lately.

Buying property with family or friends, particularly investment properties, is becoming increasingly popular as a way to boost borrowing power and access properties that may have otherwise been out of reach. All buying costs, loan repayments and ongoing expenses for the property are typically shared, which reduces the burden on your monthly cashflow. Great right?

But there can be some challenges. Traditionally, when applying jointly for a loan, all owners of the property are 100% liable for the total debt, even if the loan balance has been divided into separate splits. This means that the total debt will show up on each owners’ credit report, which can be problematic if they need to apply for finance in the future.

However, some of our lender partners now offer unique ‘Property Share’ loans. This product allows each owner to secure a separate loan for their specific share of the debt, providing total flexibility in how they set up and manage their own loan, as well as ensuring that only their share of the loan will be reported to credit agencies.

If this is something you’d like to learn more about, please reach out for a chat. I’d love to help!

FREE TREES FOR RATEPAYERS

A SUNSHINE COAST COUNCIL INITIATIVE

Did you know that Sunshine Coast ratepayers are eligible to collect two free trees twice a year. That equates to four trees a year from the Council nursery.

The only conditions are that you need to present a current rates notice & collect the trees on Wednesdays between 1-3pm from

the Caloundra Depot Nursery at 54 Industrial Avenue, Caloundra.

Happy Planting!

For more information visit Sunshine Coast Council website.

AFFORDABLE WAYS TO GET

HEALTHIER AND HAPPIER

SUNSHINE COAST COUNCIL INITIATIVE

Here’s how you can begin the new year the right way by prioritising healthy living, positive mental health and making connections –without breaking the bank. It’s time to run, jump and groove into Sunshine Coast Council’s Healthy Sunshine Coast program, which catapults into action for 2024 across the region on Monday January 29. Healthy Sunshine Coast is an affordable and holistic community health and wellbeing initiative that supports and encourages our community to be healthy, have fun and meet new friends. The aim of the program is to encourage:

- positive mental health and resilience

- regular physical activity

- healthy eating

- strong social connections

- participation across all ages and abilities. Sunshine Coast Council’s Economic and

Community Development Group Executive Greg Laverty said this year’s program had something for everyone.

“Activities range from the new pilates classes at the Maroochy Bushland Botanic Gardens, laughter yoga in Maleny and Caloundra and over 50s fitness at Buderim,” Mr Laverty said.

“Join in the fun and let’s build a happier, healthier and more connected region.”

Registration is free, but essential. Once signed up, local residents will be able to attend a range of low-cost health and wellbeing activities around the region, which are $10 – or just $5 with a Health Care/Pensioner card.

Additional activities will be added over time. For more information and to register, visit Council’s website and search ‘Healthy Sunshine Coast’: https://www.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au/ living-and-community/community-support/ healthy-and-active/healthy-sunshine-coast

STANDING STRONG

AUSTRALIA DAY

I hope you enjoyed your Australia day weekend. Like you, I am proud to be an Australian. We are the world’s most successful liberal democracy and there is much to celebrate.

That’s why I will always support the tradition of Australia Day and stand by our flag.

As you know, our beloved national day has been under attack this year by the Albanese Labor Government, corporate Australia, and local councils.

Retail giants stripped away national merchandise, our council abandoned our Australia Day awards and Labor encouraged over 81 Councils to deny new Australians the opportunity to become citizens on our national day.

I believe, Australia Day belongs to the people and should never be the plaything of big governments and big corporates; and that any attempt to cancel or silence Australia Day should be opposed.

That’s why I ran a campaign this year to help splash the Sunshine Coast with Australian pride and patriotism by handing out FREE bumper stickers.

In just two weeks, we were able to deliver 2,000 stickers. Thank you to everyone who took part.

SUMMER ROAD TRIP
