Age: 26.

Position and place of work:Manager – Ball & Percival Estate Agents.

How long have you been an estateagent? Six years in the industry.

Can you remember the first houseyou sold? Where was it and howmuch for?I started as a lettings negotiator so myfirst bit of business was actually letting athree bed semi-detached house inSouthport for £650.00 PCM.

What is the most expensive houseyou have helped to sell?My first sale was a four bedroomsemi-detached house in Ormskirk. Ithas been on the market for 18 monthswith another agent, I was delighted as Iinformed them I felt they needed areduction, from £250,000 to £225,000.We sold it within a fortnight!

It wasn’t easy asking for such asubstantial reduction as I was so newto the industry, I didn’t want to upsetone of our vendors, but it did thetrick. I have obviously since learnedthat this type of honesty, and realisticadvice, particularly in the currentmarket is what the clients need and inmost cases appreciate.

Have you ever sold a house for orto a celebrity?We sold Alan Hansen his house wherehe still lives today, located in a verysalubrious area of Southport withstunning views of the famous RoyalBirkdale Golf Course.

Where in the world would yourdream house be and what would itlook like?I am greedy. I would want a minimalisticmodern beach property in OrangeCounty, California – I worked there forsix months while I was at university andloved the climate and lifestyle.

But I would also love to keep aplace in England, a much moretraditional property, maybe a barnconversion or period property. Thereare some lovely ones in the Ribble

Valley, in which I would blend theperiod features such as ceiling beamswith a modern living and finish.

What is the most important thingsomeone selling a house shouldremember?If I could only give one piece of advicefor someone looking to sell in thecurrent climate it would be to listen toyour local agent very carefully about themarket conditions in their ownparticular area.

We are certainly not sellingproperty like hot cakes, but to suggestthe market is dead is wide of themark.

“With realistic pricing and apro-active approach, there are anumber of ready, willing and ablepurchasers actively looking.

“For the purchasers, it would be to

not be afraid of putting an offer in.They may think that the offer is toolow and simply decide against makingthe offer at all. They may be scared ofoffending the vendor, but vendorsnow are much more aware that theymay receive offers lower than theasking price.

As an agent we always try andattain the best price possible for ourvendors, but the ball must beginrolling somewhere.

Throw the offer in, what’s theworst that can happen, apart from itbeing rejected?

Another piece of advice is try notto be too selective: in almost all casesyou need to prioritise your needs andcompromise on the ones that are notas important and you will find thisopens the doors to many moreproperties.

A LEADING new homesdeveloper is urgingfirst-time buyers to takeadvantage of agovernment scheme tohelp them on to thehousing ladder – beforeit’s too late.

Seddon Homes says the£180m FirstBuy schemerepresents a goldenopportunity for anyonestruggling to save up fora deposit to realise theirdream of homeownership.

But Denis Maddock, itssales and marketingdirector, warns anypotential takers to actnow to avoiddisappointment.

He says: “FirstBuyoffers a route to homeownership for manyyoung people who wouldotherwise be priced outof the market due to thelarge deposits requiredby most lenders.

“However, we arefinding that many people

who come to us to askabout the scheme don’trealise there is a limitedpot of cash.

“Once the money isgone, it’s gone for goodand that could happenvery soon.

“The risk for thosewho choose to wait untilnext year is that theymiss out entirely. Thatwould be a great shameas opportunities like thisdon’t come along veryoften.”

Seddon Homes, whichhas its headquarters inWarrington, has newhomes available to buyunder the FirstBuyscheme at three of itscurrent developments,one of which is inRuncorn: prices atMosaic, a development ofthree and four bedroomsemi-detached homes inRuncorn, start at£115,000.

Chancellor GeorgeOsborne unveiled the

FirstBuy scheme in theMarch 2011 budget.

It allows people to takeout a mortgage for just75% of the cost of theproperty,meaningthey onlyhave tofind a 5%depositinstead ofthe20%-plusrequiredby mostlenders.

As atypicalexample,someonewanting tobuy apropertyvalued at£130,000wouldonly haveto stumpup £6,500as a deposit.

Buyers are offered an

equity loan of up to 20%of a property’s value,jointly funded by theHomes and CommunitiesAgency and the house

builder.Loans areinterest-free for thefirst fiveyears.

Thescheme,designed tohelp morethan 10,000first-timebuyers inEngland, isopen tothose with atotalhouseholdincome ofless than£60,000 ayear.● For moreinformationon SeddonHomes call

MyFirstHOME

ElaineCunninghamWhere was the family home where yougrew up and what was it like?The family home was in Woolton, and I grewup with a house full of boys.

What is your clearest memory of thehouse?Football always playing on the TV and my dadgardening- my escape was going to theWoolton Picture House.

Where was the first house you boughtyourself and what did it cost?It was in Croxteth Park and it cost £16k!

What made you want to buy it?I bought it because it was a brand new estate– even before Brookside – and it was likeliving in the country, but also close to the city.The best of both worlds.

What are the important things youlook for when buying a house?The surrounding area – I prefer it semi rural,character/traditional, size of rooms, southfacing, plenty of light, but most of all makingmy house a home for my family.

Are you a DIY trier or do you leave itto the experts?Being an interior designer I create the moodand design the spaces but leave the heavywork to my trusted builders and decorators.But the finishing touches are a must for me.

What is the one thing you love mostabout your current home?I love the homeliness, the garden, the peaceand quiet and the beautiful sunsets. I havedeliberately created a haven of tranquility forme and my daughters – no more football ever.

FOLLOW these top tips on how touse tile spacers effectively.◆ Tile spacers come in differentsizes – the larger ones are designedfor floor tiles and the smaller onesfor wall tiles. You can use whicheveryou like, but it’s better to use smalltile spacers and so keep the groutlines narrow if you’re using white orcream grout because it tends todiscolour over time, due to thingssuch as shampoo and cookingsplashes.● Sometimes it’s useful to use twosizes of tile spacer if, for example,you’re doing stripes of differentcolour tiles and they’re not lining upvery well on adjoining walls.Switching to larger or smaller tilespacers will help to even up thelines of tiles by altering the size ofthe grout lines.◆ Tile spacers are designed to beleft in place while the adhesive andgrout set, but this can result in apoor finish because you cansometimes still see the tile spacersafter grouting. To avoid this, putthem in vertically, so they stick outfrom the surface of the tiles, andthen remove them as the adhesivesets (when the tiles will no longermove). If you’re laying thick tiles,

using tile spacers conventionally(horizontally) shouldn’t be aproblem, because they shouldn’t beas deep as the tiles and so will becovered by the grout.◆ Tile spacers aredesigned to be usedwhere the corners offour tiles meet, so if, forexample, you’ve only gottwo tiles meeting (as youwould along the top of abath), you’ll need to cutdown the tile spacers oruse the vertical methoddescribed above.◆ Another advantage ofthe vertical method is thatmost of the tile spacersshould be reusable, so you’llsave money the next time youtile. Buy more tile spacers in

the first place than you think you’llneed because you don’t want to runout.

LOTS of leaves arefalling at the moment,so check your home’s

gutters and clear themout if necessary. It’s agood idea to fit gutterguards, which should

stop leaves fromgetting into

them.

WITH an early onset ofwinter predicted thisyear and utility billscontinuing to rise,homeowners are

having to find innovative ways ofensuring they’ll be prepared for anycold snaps.

As a result, the NationalAssociation of Estate Agents isencouraging people to takeadvantage of the simple solutionscurrently on the market that canhelp properties retain heat and saveon energy costs.

◆ Cavity-wall insulationAlthough this involves a rather

noisy process, the benefits can be feltinstantly. Insulating your wallsharnesses the heat generated in thehome meaning substantial savingson your energy bills.

A specialist installer shouldalways be sought for this type of jobso ensure you choose a member thatis Cavity Insulation GuaranteeAgency (CIGA) qualified.

◆ Draught-StrippingReplacing windows and doors with

double glazing may be worthconsidering if you wish to improvethe aesthetics and saleability of yourhome, as well as save energy.However, it can be costly and themoney you will save on subsequentenergy bills is unlikely to cover theoutlay.

If you are worried about heat lossthrough windows, a cheaper optionis secondary double glazing or usingrubber draft stripping which isavailable in DIY shops and can alsobe used on doors.

Installing specialist stripes offoam around windows and doors willsignificantly reduce draughts andair permeation in your home,helping to retain the heat andultimately saving you money.

Costing around £50-£80 dependingon whether you install it yourself ornot, draught-stripping can save up to£20 per year for a gas-heatedsemi-detached house.◆ Replacing your boiler

Replacing your old boiler with anew one can certainly help to reduceemissions and reduce your bills atthe same time.

Although the boiler scrappagescheme has now come to an end,trade-in incentives are still availablefor this kind of purchase.

It is worth checking out thefunding database on the EnergySaving Trust site for specific detailson what is out there: http://www.energysavingtrust.org.uk

SEAL THE HEAT IN: Double glazing can cut draughts in the home

by JANET TANSLEY

INFLATED house prices andthe credit crunch have made itharder than ever for first-timebuyers to get a mortgage. Butif you want to help your childbuy their first home, there areseveral financial products thatcould help you out.

If you already have amortgage, think aboutremortgaging to increaseyour loan – to help provide adeposit for your child. If yougo down this road, however,make sure you consider theimpact that the increasedborrowing would have onyour own standard of livingand your retirement plans.

If your child can’t get a bigenough mortgage, you couldconsider a guarantormortgage. These work bycommitting the parent toguaranteeing the paymentson their child’s loan, so youwould have to promise tomeet any repayments shouldyour child fail to do so.

For working parents, a jointmortgage could be a viableoption. These consider bothyour and your child’s incomeas well as any moneyoutstanding on your ownmortgage, and allow you andyour child to be named onthe mortgage agreement,providing you with somepower over any futuretransactions but still leavingyou liable if your child stopspaying their share.

Alternatively, you couldlook at a family offset deal,where your savings arebalanced against your child’sdebt, so the amount they oweand pay interest on isreduced.

One final option is to buy aproperty for your child whilethey’re at university, whichcould mean saving on therent they would otherwisehave to pay. It could evenbring in an income fromrenters, which would help tocover the mortgage.

To find out which option isbest for you, we recommendyou take professional advicefrom an independentmortgage broker.

◆ Loft InsulationThis well-established efficiency

measure offers a cheap and easy wayto top up insulation alreadyinstalled.

Boosting the thickness of theinsulation to between 250 and 300mm thickness is recommended foroptimum efficiency.◆ Radiators

Moving furniture away fromradiators can increase the feeling ofwarmth in a room by allowing theheat to flow more freely.

Place foil behind radiators onexterior walls to reflect the heat backin to the room and minimise heatloss to the outside. You can useordinary foil or purchase speciallydesigned panels from a DIY shop.◆ Pipe Cladding

Ensuring all external pipes arewell-insulated minimises additionalheat loss and can reduce the risk offreezing if a property is leftunoccupied during a cold period.

Peter Bolton King, chief executiveof the NAEA , says: “It is importantthat homeowners are aware of theoptions available to them whenlooking to make their homes warmerthis winter.

“These measures can make a realdifference.

“Many of these measures can beapplied on different scales, and forthis reason while doing DIY is veryadmirable, we urge any homeownerto seek the advice of professionalswhen looking to install energy andheat saving measures in the home.”

BestOfTheBunchEuonymus(spindlebush)

byHANNAH STEPHENSON

Gounderglass forWHILE many of us

will be turning upthe central heatingand closing thecurtains as shorter

nights draw in, others will be doingsome serious pottering in thegreenhouse.

Indeed, the greenhouse – heatedor unheated – can provide a havenfor gardeners who can still plantand sow, reaping the rewards ofboth edible and ornamental plantsduring the cooler months.

Indeed, you can have agreenhouse bursting with orname-ntals from autumn through tospring, grow a variety of crops andsafeguard tender flowering plantsand fruit trees if you plan carefully.

If your greenhouse is unheated,you will be more limited but it isstill possible to have lush, greendisplays of feathery ferns, ivies,scented shrubs which will give youa delicious waft of perfume everytime you go in the greenhouse andsome well-chosen bulbs and alpinestowards springtime.

Plant shrubs such as Daphneodora ‘Aureomarginata’ in potsoutside and then bring them intothe greenhouse at the end of theautumn. It produces palepurple-pink flowers and glossygreen leaves and is a star in thewinter greenhouse.

Some foliage plants also lookstunning in the greenhouse inwinter. Fatsia japonica, with itsexotic, glossy leaves, could easily bea stand-alone specimen, whileshallow troughs of colourful alpineson waist-high staging, includingcyclamen, chionodoxa and ane-mone, dwarf narcissi and colourfulprimulas will create a riot of colourin late winter and early spring.

Scented annuals can also bewonderful in the greenhouse. Plantheliotrope or mignonette in latesummer, to bloom in thegreenhouse in late winter

You can also be sowing andplanting in the greenhouse over thecooler months. Many plants can begrown much earlier and producecrops earlier than would beachieved outside.

Salad leaves, particularly the

cut-and-come-again varieties, canbe sown all year round, growquickly and taste great when theyare picked young. They are suitablefor growing in pots, trays or soilborders. In winter you can also sowbroad beans and early peas if youhave border space.

You’ll have more choice of whatto grow if you have a greenhouseheater or at least a heatedpropagator to get tender veg off to a

good start. Veg grown in traditionalgreenhouses, such as tomatoes,aubergines, cucumbers andpeppers, are usually planted inspring. But you can sow greenhousetomatoes in a heated propagator asearly as December, for growing onin a heated greenhouse.

You can also have fresh herbs forthe winter months if you pot upclumps of mint, thyme or oreganofrom your garden in early autumn

and put them in the greenhouse, ortry sowing basil in a heatedpropagator in pots, nipping out anyshoots that threaten to flower.

Fruits can also do well ingreenhouses – and for some it’s anecessity. If you’ve grown citrusfruits in a pot on a sunny, shelteredpatio in summer, move them in andtheir fragrant flowers and glossyleaves come into their own. Youmay not harvest a lot of fruit, butseeing lemons growing justconjures up a flavour of warmerclimes.

Decide what you want in yourgreenhouse over the cooler monthsand plan carefully, choosing plantsto suit the temperature andsituation of your greenhouse,heated or unheated, and try tostagger the display so you havedifferent plants coming into theirown as the season progresses.

Here are some tips to keep yourgreenhouse in great condition:

1. Keep the glass clean as possibleat all times for maximum light.

2. Check that any electricalheaters are free from corrosion andthat your connections are sound. Ifin doubt, have a qualifiedelectrician check the equipment.

3. Use sticky-backed draughtexcluder around ventilators, panesand doors for long-lasting seals.

4. Remove rubbish, moss andalgae growing between panes with astick or plastic plant label.

5. Give the whole greenhouse athorough clean with hot water andgarden disinfectant before a newseason of use.

You can have a greenhouse bursting with ornamentals from autumn through to spring

Euonymus produces the most amazing crimson and scarlet leaves in autumn andits purple and red fruits split open to reveal orange seeds.

Tomato plants thrive in a greenhouseenvironment

WE may enjoythe morecommon types ofeuonymus such asE. fortunei and E.japonica, butsome of the lesspopular varietiesactually producethe best autumncolours, in shadesof red, purple andcrimson.

winter colour

Shallow troughs of colourful alpines, like pink anemone will create a riot of colour in late winter and early spring

IF you love tasty springgreens, you’ll just have timeto plant spring cabbage,10cm apart in rows 30cmapart.

The thinnings can be usedas spring greens in March andthe plants left in the groundcan be used as acut-and-come-again crop ifcut after producing six orseven leaves.

Each plant should yieldthree or four harvests andthey make an idealspace-saving alternative to

the hearting summer andwinter varieties.

Pick a sunny spot to growthe plants and work in plentyof organic matterbeforehand. The groundmust not be acid, so you mayneed to add lime in winter.Good varieties include’Durham Early’, which willgive you an early crop ofspring greens but is unlikelyto develop a solid heart, and’Pixie’, a compact heartingvariety which is ideal in minivegetable beds.

Plant your spring cabbage now

1Plant trees and shrubs

rather than annuals andtender perennials.

2Think about ditching the

lawn and create awildflower meadow areainstead, which is likely tobe more colourful and

attractive to insects and lesstime-consuming than a bowlinggreen finish.

3If you’re buying pots,

make them big. Severalstrategically placedcontainers will look a lotmore effective than a

collection of mismatched smallerones and should need to be wateredless often.

Sow rows of winter lettuce, baby spinach leaves and early carrots ormangetout under glass.

● Plant tulips

● Sow rows of winterlettuce, baby spinach leavesand early carrots ormangetout under glass.

● Move strawberry potsand baskets close to asheltered wall over thewinter.

● If you haven’t done it yet,wash down the greenhouseglass with greenhousedisinfectant.

● Continue to cut downmarginal pond plants to 5cm(2in) above water level andfish out any dead water-lilyleaves.

● Prune blackberries andhybrid berry fruits afterharvesting.

● Lift Jerusalem artichokes,cutting the top of the plants

off, dry the tubers and storethem in trays.

● Continue winter digging,adding well-rotted organicmatter to improve the soil.

● Complete the planting ofall new evergreens.

● Divide and replantwaterside plants such asastilbes and trollius.

● Finish planting up springcontainers.

● Prune autumn-floweringdeciduous shrubs over threeyears old as they finishflowering.

● Continue raking up leavesto make leaf mould.
