NEWS FEATURE
THE MODERN BATHROOM GREEN DESIGNS LEAD THE WAY IN 2022 2022 will be a time of simplicity and naturalness. The focus for the bathroom, more than any other room in the home, will incorporate the key trends of wellness and self-care, with an emphasis on the importance of creating harmony. Choosing less and focusing on more quality items that last and provide comfort above all else will be the priority. Size does play a part in the design for a bathroom, however, regardless of the space, trends for 2022 dictate functionality and eco-friendly as top of the list. “Green” designs coupled with water-efficient and energyefficient bathroom fixtures are a must-have. Andy Grigor, Head of Design and Innovation at Methven, explains that while water conservation may be at the forefront of our minds, it doesn’t have to mean compromising on the shower experience. “People tend to associate less water with bad experiences. Our mission at Methven is to change that. We design with the intent to use less but not at the expense of experience. Our shower designs
focus on innovation, sustainability and water conservation, and along with leading-edge technology result in a transformative shower experience,” he said. Methven offers a number of 4-star shower options, such as The Rua Rail Shower, where the water flow rate is optimised to be water efficient without compromising the luxurious spray performance. The Rua features the awardwinning Aurajet technology. The design is a standout with hidden nozzles generating individual jets of water that collide against precisely angled surfaces offering a seemingly floating shower head. The result is a stunning fan of luxuriously dense droplets. The future of bathroom design will be the integration of intuitive products that make life easier and use energy efficiently. “Our lives already have an overload of information and there is a movement to transition from the smart home to the thoughtful home,” Mr Grigor said. “We are working on hidden technology that helps meet everyday demands, with products that have intuitive features that use several
metrics to predict your needs.” From an interior design perspective, artistic touches give character to bathrooms with the use of modern wallpaper, wall panelling or warm, moody colours to add personality and harmony to a bathroom. The natural hues of stone and wood dominate. Bathroom spaces, including vanities, walls and ceiling linings are

We’ve known Litsa now for 8yrs since she came knocking on our door to introduce herself. There was nothing in it for her, other than to be friendly and build new relationships. Eight years later and here we are selling our property. We had no hesitation picking up that phone and contacting her to do the sale. What you get with Litsa: 1) Professional + Genuine: Everyone can be professional but are they genuine? It shows through in Litsa’s character when you engage with her. Her willingness to help you and expected nothing in return. All agents should be genuine and treat you like you are family. How many agents calls you out of the blue to see how you are going and ask if you have any questions? I say not many. 2) Informed decisions. Litsa presents to you various scenarios and helps you make informed decisions. She never pushes you, she just presents the information for you to chew on. This has been incredibly helpful in our journey with preparing the property for sale, during sale and post sale. Now, we’re engaging with her with purchase of a property. 3) Available. Litsa is incredibly busy, can you imagine how many people are contacting her for advice on a given day. You may not get an answer on the day, but you will always get an answer . . . even at 8pm. 4) Reality vs Imagination. Litsa sets realistic expectations and then surprises you with over delivery. Everyone likes to hear you will get top dollar, but many under deliver. Litsa is clearly able to justify her position but at the same time, she knows what will sell and what will bring up the value. Listen to her! We did and the return was a record price for the area. Now, I can write more, but if you want to chat with me and my wife for our experience with Litsa and her team, shoot us a text or an email. It would be our pleasure to return the favour.

BROKING BREAKDOWN
RELIEF FOR BROKERS ELECTION RESULT NOT A WORRY
MARK STEVENSON BELLPARTNERS.COM
With a Federal Election looming, it was reassuring for the financial services sector to receive support from both sides of politics after a strong endorsement for brokers from the Labor Opposition. In an interview with an industry publication followed by many thousands of brokers in Australia, the Shadow Financial Services Minister and Shadow Assistant Treasurer, Stephen Jones, reaffirmed the ALP would not make any changes to broker remuneration should it win the Federal Election, due in May. The Coalition has also made the same commitment. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” he said when asked whether he believed Australians should pay
for mortgage advice. Mr Jones acknowledged that the broker commission for organising a home loan is factored into the cost of a mortgage like any expense for the bank. While broker commissions came under scrutiny during the Hayne Royal Commission into the banking and financial services sector, the fact is brokers have continued to grow their share of the home loan market with more than two-thirds of all new home loans written by brokers, according to industry body the Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia (MFAA). With banks pulling back on acting as business bankers for small businesses, brokers are
also fast replacing the traditional branch manager/small business banker who would look after these self-employed and small business clients. At Bell Partners, we advise our clients on the differences in dealing with a broker or directly with a bank. When a bank receives a deal from a broker, they haven’t had to outlay on costs such as marketing and advertising, front line staff to take the enquiry as well as staff costs to put the deal together and ensure it meets lending criteria and package it for their credit department to formally assess. Another big advantage brokers have is we already know the client, their circumstances and their wishes.

Gizzelle Powell - RE/MAX Lifestyle Marketing International Women’s Day is a day of solidarity for us all to celebrate the social, political, cultural and economic achievements of women. For me, this day acts as an opportunity to thank my family, especially my husband for being supportive so I can do the job I love and be very good at it. Real estate is normally dominated by males but with hard work, female agents nowadays are given the same opportunity to succeed. I have just recently come back from Queensland after receiving the Diamond Award and I also received four (4) Major Awards from Ratemyagent Agent of the Year Awards 2022 including Top 100 Agent in Australia. I am grateful that through this job I can make a difference and help someone achieve their property goals. The joy of my clients when they have successfully bought or sold a property, this drives my passion even further. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me!

Really, you could say that I have been in Real Estate my whole life. I grew up in the Penrith area and started working for dad’s business when I was only 14. Real Estate has changed a lot since I first started. There’s a lot more women in the industry now, I work in an office completely made up of women, except for dad of course! I love my job and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I think it’s an advantage to be a woman in real estate. Women generally have a lot more empathy and that only helps me in dealing with people who are generally dealing with the biggest asset they will ever buy or sell. Happy International Women’s Day!

I believe accountants can make a profound impact on the lives of their clients. Obviously, there are economic impacts, however I think what has not been fully appreciated is the profound impact we accountants can also have on a personal, social and emotional level. Before I started Clear Path Accounting, I felt frustrated by the fact that all service efforts were focused on lodgements of tax returns and not on services that provide real value to clients. Which is why, just over 6 years ago, I created Clear Path Accounting . . . a strategic, futurefocused firm that shares relevant solutions, provides outstanding support and inspires positive change.

Dynamic team glenmore park realty International women’s day is a day we celebrate how far we have come because of those successful women that paved the way before us. No matter the position you hold as a female you are to be celebrated from the stay at home mum to the CEO of a thriving business. Every position is just as important as the other. 2022 is a special year as the last couple of years have been extremely challenging as we were faced with a world wide pandemic that did not discriminate between gender, race or cultures. However now we all get to move forward in an environment that we had never seen or experienced before. We can all draw strength from one another learn and grow and come together.

The women of the Diamantidis Group Today marks International Women’s Day which, for us at Ray White Diamantidis Group, is an important and meaningful day. Regardless of your career choice, age, religion or family values; we come together on this day to celebrate women. The women in our office have a strong character, a voice within the team and, most importantly, they portray extensive leadership skills each and every day. The theme for this year’s International Women’s Day is “Equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”. It is important that we work towards equality in all areas to overcome the social barriers and financial imbalances women face to empower them to have a voice in the decisions related to climate change and sustainability. This year, we recognise and place a strong emphasis on the contribution made by women and girls in the building of a more sustainable future for the next generation. On this day, we come together to ensure our service is of a high standard but, more importantly, that equality and women’s values are upheld at all times.
