NEWS FEATURE
THE GREAT OUTDOORS OUR LOVE AFFAIR WITH THE BACKYARD The Australian love affair with entertaining and outdoor living is showing no signs of waning, with 79 per cent of Aussies planning to either make improvements or undertake new projects in their outdoor space this year. In addition, a backyard is high on the list of Aussie homeowners’ must-haves, with over 80 per cent of respondents saying it plays an important or very important part in the decision making when buying a property. This is according to the latest annual Adbri Masonry’s Great Australian Backyard Survey, which interviewed over 2,000 Australians about the importance of their outdoor spaces and backyards. Aussies “time out” in their yards After the lockdowns of 2020 and 2021, our homes have become even more prominent in our lives with many working from home and seeking refuge in backyards and gardens for “time out”. “More than ever, Aussies are loving spending time in their backyards; relaxing, gardening, entertaining, and cooking,”
explained landscaping expert and Adbri Masonry brand ambassador, Jason Hodges. Entertaining area a must for yards The survey results concluded that entertaining remains one of the top three uses of the backyard for many reasons. “The outdoors brings an entirely different dynamic to entertaining family and friends,” Jason said. “The outdoor dining and entertaining area is a staple for every Aussie home because it adds a new dimension to how you can entertain while enhancing the appeal of your home. Outdoor dining areas allow homeowners to continue the meal experience and create more memories in an enjoyable outdoor setting.” Kid friendly yards score high The survey results showed that kids spend on average three to seven hours a week playing outdoors, however, they spend double that time on digital devices such as phones, TVs and computers for entertainment purposes. It’s no surprise that the second top benefit of having a backyard for parents was for kids to spend

more time outdoors and less screen time. Nearly 80 per cent of parents felt outside “playtime” is “very important” for their child’s development and considered the yard a safe space for them to play. Pools on the wish list For nearly half the respondents, a pool was their second choice to include in a backyard renovation. Pools and spas can add real value to a home while providing endless entertainment and enjoyment for homeowners and their families. Jason’s top tip: “It’s important to consider both the pool and the area immediately surrounding
it. Be sure to buy a slip-resistant paver that is safe around wet areas and meets the Australian Standard. For concrete pavers, you can’t go past the Adbri Euro range because it has options for different aesthetics with smooth and textured stone looks. As a finishing touch, if the budget allows, go for glass fencing, it really does set off an area.” Relaxation – the winner! 57 per cent of Aussies stated that relaxation is the number one reason they spend time in their backyards. The beauty of the backyard is its diversity.

BROKING BREAKDOWN
THE POWER SHIFT
WHAT DOES ELECTION RESULT MEAN?
MARK STEVENSON BELLPARTNERS.COM
With the Federal Election done and dusted, what can prospective home buyers expect from the new Labor government under Anthony Albanese? From a finance broking perspective, one of the most fascinating debates during the election campaign was over the Coalition’s proposal to allow first time buyers to use part of their superannuation for a housing deposit. We won’t see this pushed forward by Labor with so many super funds controlled by their union mates, although the question of allowing super to be used for a home loan deposit contribution has been tossed around for many years and is unlikely to go away.
With the nation facing a rising interest rate environment amid a continuing strong property market, a key focus of Labor has been on housing affordability and improving opportunities to achieve home ownership. Labor has committed to a new Help to Buy scheme, involving an equity contribution from the Federal Government of up to a maximum of 40 per cent of the purchase price of a new home (and up to a maximum of 30 per cent of the purchase price for an existing home) for 10,000 Australians each financial year. Home buyers would need at least a two per cent deposit. Help to Buy would be restricted to Australians with a taxable
income of up to $90,000 for individuals and up to $120,000 for couples. Applicants would need to be Australian citizens who are not current homeowners, either in Australia or overseas. The scheme would not be restricted to first home buyers. Labor also proposes a Regional First Home Buyer Support Scheme, which will provide a government guarantee of up to 15 per cent for eligible first home buyers, so that locals with a five per cent deposit can avoid paying mortgage insurance. Also on the table is the $10 billion Housing Australia Future Fund, which will build 30,000 new social and affordable housing properties in its first five years.
