Ever wondered what it would be like being in the industry of homes for 40 odd years?

Imagine the changes that have happened both in prices of homes let alone the technology.

Well Di has done just that. Not only has she seen it all, she shares with us a few of her hopes for the future, a memory or two, and recommendations to anyone looking at Property Management as a career - it's not as easy as some people think, and we have a lot of legislation in place to ensure it is done right.

Take a listen to a hilarious example of when the unexpected happens and why she rocked up back at the office with dirt on her face and crumpled paperwork!

If you have any topic to do with HOME you want me to cover, send me an email: ruth@thepmboutique.com.au and I hope you enjoy not only this episode but some amazing topics to come that will assist with ways to make your house the best home you need.

Thank you for joining me for another episode of Through the Ruth.

Todays episode we discuss the Cost of Living and how it affects the home.

If I've learnt one thing, it's that there is never a 'perfect time' where we finally allow ourselves to be happy. It becomes a choice.

I hope this episode has you thinking of what is important to keep and what can simply be let go, so the pressure can be minimised and shared within the home to reduce the stress we live with during these times.

Don't forget to follow and join me again for another episode of Through the Ruth.

In this episode we have another special guest speaker, Michael Kennedy, who won the prestigious South Australian Award 'Property Manager of the Year 2023'.

We will hear what is is like working in the industry, what to know before you consider this career, and what others outside can learn like listening through the proverbial door rather than having to be inside.

We cover what changes have happened, what are the most important values to know, and hopefully gain some understanding of the 'other side' when searching for a rental yourself.

Dont forget to follow along and enjoy learning what others call 'HOME'.

Its not that unusual to move around the corner, to the next suburb, maybe even over to the next town. Bigger still, you may move Interstate OR what about to another COUNTRY!!? In this episode, we get to hear from a man by the name of Rick who has done exactly that.

We don't often stop and think what is involved with moving a long way away, let alone what makes them stay and what is involved with making the decision on the first place.

Hopefully listening to this episode, you will grow with understanding of one story that was a jump for the heart and ended up being amazing for the mind as we hear about the journey for Rick coming to Australia and feeling right at home.

Dont forget to click follow and hear stories of the journey to find home.

In this episode, we discuss home safety. Renting or Owning, our home is still our safe place in the world where we should feel most relaxed. Unfortunately break ins occur as do Home Invasions.

What should you do if it happens to you. What WOULD you do if it happens to you. The conversation is better to happen before, not after, and this episode is to help you bring it up for discussion with your household.

Dont forget to follow, and thank you for joining me for another episode.

Ruth.

In this episode of Through the Ruth, we explore the importance of Grandparents inside a home.

Whilst not everyone is fortunate to have good Grandparents, or the may now have wings, but the cultural significance of Grandparents alone is important in shaping our past, presence and our future for everyone inside the family.

A home without the people is just a house. An extended home with more people can be a new world of possibilities.

In this episode, we will hear how they shape us, the memories we keep, and even how they physically can increase our enjoyment of life.

So please grab a cuppa and take a comfy seat, your listening to through the Ruth, the podcast that's all about HOME.

Welcome to episode five, where we explore the idea of showing GRATTITUDE for what we have and where we stand in the community. Home is not just 4 walls we hide within, it's as equally the community we live amongst. Being part of a community is not simply living within a zone but contributing to assist others and how we can help.

Being truly 'at home' also depends on how important our present is within a community, or several communities depending on your interests and what you are able to assist others with in order to gain yourself.

I hope you enjoy this episode of meandering thoughts, and the growing on line community of Through the Ruth.

Welcome to Through the Ruth.

In this episode, we hear the story about a tenant who unfortunately experienced what we all fear. They came home to an open front door and discovered they were broken into.

We hear how this was handled, what happened following this night, but also how kindness and empathy can change the entire negative experience into a positive outcome.

Afterall, HOME is mean to be our security away from the world and worth protecting!

I hope you will join me, and don't forget to follow along.
