Buying Property: Working with Tradesmen and Agents

Welcome to my blog. My name is Darren. I own several rental properties in Western Australia. Once I had made the purchases, I discovered that several of the properties needed extensive work before I could rent them to tenants, so I had to hire construction contractors, plumbers, electricians, waste disposal experts and roofing experts to make sure the homes were in top condition. Once I had repaired the buildings, I contacted a letting agent who put them on the market for me. I learnt a lot from working with some many different businesses so I decided to start this blog to share everything I know.

    Ten Questions You Should Ask Before Hiring A Wedding Planner

    Wedding planners have become increasingly popular in recent years and there are plenty of excellent reasons to consider using a wedding planner's services, but finding the right one can seem like a daunting task.

"How big is your business?" Small wedding planning businesses generally have one or two employees, which means you'll have the same consultant through the entire process. Larger companies can have many benefits--they're often more established and have a greater wealth of experience, for example--but you should check that you'll be working with the same planner through the entire process, and that they'll be there in person on the day.
