Property Upgraders
You may have run out of space or your house might be in an urgent need of an upgrade. If you’re at the point where your home no longer meets your needs then you face one of life’s big decisions: to renovate or relocate.
If the challenges of renovation appear insurmountable (due the condition of the house including the wiring, structural flaws and the ever present concern of over capitalising) or you’d like to move to a new area (to be nearer the children’s school for example) then the options to relocate (upgrade) or, if you love your location but cant stand your house, to knock-down/re-build are worth considering.
