Housing Policy

To be fair, most people saw this coming and certainly if you are a true investor and in it for the long term, this certainly isn't going to have a dramatic effect on your current situation.

The First Home Grant cap which most buyers in our area have not been able to use for quite some time now due to the rapid increase in house prices has also been adjusted from $400,000 for our area to now $500,000. I will just add that the Manawatu/Wanganui Median house price for February 2021 was at $545,000 so I will let you do the math's on that one.

What perhaps we didn't see coming was the removal of interest deductibility from investment property mortgages. This certainly won't be sitting nicely with Investors across the country as some Landlords now claim the interest as an expense as this reduces the amount of tax they pay.

What do you think of the housing policy changes released today?

The Loop Restaurant and Bar (formerly the old RSA) are having a late afternoon/early evening show for Mother's Day. You can have a meal beforehand if you wish and then enjoy the music from the good old days. (60's and 70's era) I think they may be selling tickets for $10. I think this would be a wonderful outing for our mums. I am lucky enough to have 2 special mums in my life which I know will enjoy this. Would love to see you all there. Spread the word and let's do something nice for our mums 💕

Different Curtains, Different Benefits

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean Palmerston North

This leads to confusion and with confusion starts the round of discussions, advice and suggestions. Though you may like some of them. The suggestion will always include linen curtains, linen roman blinds, net curtains, sheer curtains, thermal curtains, blackout blinds and similar sorts. Most of them are useless, some come close to what you want and out of blue you may find a suggestion that you will find interesting. Even then the best idea that you find does not tick all the boxes. Therefore, we need a practical approach to select the right curtain design.

All curtain types come with their own set of benefits and limitations. No one window treatment option can suffice all the requirements. You will need a set of permutation and combinations and an eye for custom combinations to make your window treatment stand out and give a professional look. All the fabrics, be it linen, velvet, net, thermal or blackout, have their own advantages. One is economical in one way another one proves to be economical the other way. One lets the light in and the other turns a room into a sound and light proof. In this writeup we are going to talk about different curtains and their different benefits.

Linen Curtains

One of the most-simple yet exclusive look can be achieved by using Linen Curtains, drapes and blinds. Not only these are made of natural flax seeds, they come cheap and are available in multiple colours. They help illuminate the rooms with natural light as linen is a low-density fabric. One of the main advantages of using linen fabric is being able to use it in multiple styles such as linen roman blinds, simple drapes hanging over the wall or a simple free flowing curtain design.
