Easy fix: plant some trees in the areas that they used to be and take some of our local koalas to populate the new trees.

We have koalas in our trees, they moved on for some reason, now all the trees are coming back and looking much better.

Got a mate who used to work in the DSE. They used to go on Kwala culls coz they were killing tons of trees. Had to be kept all hush hush coz if it got out the sheite woulda hit the fan.

The Kwalas are nice, but they do make things look grim when they eat out all the trees.

We are having some crazy winds this week in sunny Melbourne.

This monster was uprooted last night and resting just on a small branch of another tree ready to fall straight onto my fence.

Old faithful GQ to the rescue to pull it away from the fence but I had to sacrifice my beautiful plum tree damn it :(

It’s never nice when you bust your plums on a tree branch.

Thank you. I’m here all week.

Not angry just frustrated.

So where we go to collect firewood, we drive past a rural property that gives me goose bumps every time i see it. I love it, nice house with the typical verandah going around the perimeter of the house. Its on 4 acres, about the size i want and a shed.

Well we go past it over the weekend and its up for sale! Goddammit! And its less then my place and i would be halving my mortgage on this place too!

But I am not quite ready to sell my place. Another 12 months our place would be worthy to sell.

Why now?

Sometimes the work you do on a property to 'get it ready for sale' is merely undone when the new owners take possession.
From the list of things you'll gain, it sounds like your best move would be to take action now, rather than wait. [emoji123]

Yep. The work needed is major however, bathroom, front balcony and finish the hall and stairwell flooring. These things i highly doubt anyone would undo due to costs.
My brain hurts just thinking about the logistics of trying to make this work.

Mate, as @Cremulator said, no matter how much effort you drop into your house, there is a huge chance the next people are going to rip it up anyway and make it their own.
The days of "Reno and flog it" are gone. Potential buyers nowadays don't give a rats diarrhoea how much you've polished the product. So that nullifies how much effort and $ you do prior to selling.
If you see your dream property with a board at front. Act now.

Mark, if this place is your dream place and is half the cost of your unfinished current place, what is there to think about? That you could get some more if you finish the project? Your unicorn will have flown off by then mate. Of course other unicorns are out there but when will they come along?

Just make sure you get a good unicorn inspector to check it out before you mount up though. They can hide their fleas well those unicorns.
