024. How to Maximise Property Value with your Home Renovation

If you’ve ever worried about blowing your renovation budget on upgrades that don’t actually increase your home's value — you’re not alone. Homeowners and renovators everywhere are getting caught in the trap of overcapitalising, pouring in more money than they'll ever get back.

In today's episode, I’m giving you a roadmap to renovate smarter, not harder. We’ll dig into why certain improvements add real value — while others simply drain your bank account. I’ll also share practical strategies you can start using today to set a clear renovation budget, prioritise your spend, and ultimately safeguard your property investment.

Let's be honest — renovating is emotional. It’s easy to get caught up in beautiful fixtures, luxury upgrades, and Pinterest-worthy ideas. But if you want a strong ROI, you have to balance heart and head. I’ll teach you how to ask the right questions, make the right calls, and stay laser-focused on adding true market value to your property.
