Raising a house versus building a NEW one for the same cost!!!

My ex wife & I started over five years ago, helping people along our street apply for Goverment Grants, to elevate their homes above the flood plain.
My ex wife Elaine was a super factor initiating this process. But today, with more experience under my belt. I have come to see that it is a far better choice to build a whole NEW home for the same costs, on the footprint of their old home.
For most people ... why raise an old house with all its old bugs and glitches, when you can have a brand new & improved home, for almost the same cost as raising your old one??
Well, there are pros & cons to elevating. For example, one may have invested a lot of fine designs and decor therefore keeping the original house is a good idea. Each person's situation is different. I can help you make basic decisions if you call and ask before applying for the Grant.

Does YOUR garden invite you in? Or, is it just a yard full of potential ??? Call me if you have ideas you want to share. Implement or budget for future projects.

Is YOUR yard a Garden that invites you in ??

Or, is it an area full of potential,
and ready for a touch of
'Enchantment' ??




You may live in a four season climate, or in the arid South West.
Or, Tropical or Temperate Zones.

Remember, your space speaks a LOT about YOU!

Adding a little Tree Jewellry, or tickling the senses with
SOUND, SCENTs, COLOUR, SOFT TEXTURES,
and FLAVOURS with Seduce you
and your family to stay,
and bond together a lot longer.








Don't attempt to please your neighbours. This is YOUR personal space and doesn't need to impress others.

Wild and Unkempt is also a Beautiful Thing.

Does your garden make you want to stay ?
Is it inviting in the most familiar way???
Is it an extension of your home???
Is it a place your family and friends would like to roam???

Just a carpet of sweet smelling flowers would be enough to light me senses, adjust my mood, with their Enchanted Powers.

Does your garden have a Mystique, about it?
Maybe in one corner, a privately kept secret.
You can create a hidden private sanctuary.
