⭐️⭐️Strategic design that makes your investment property work harder⭐️⭐️
(1)

22/09/2026

🤩Probably my favourite transformation so far …
🥰💚🥰

This is the kind of listing you don’t scroll past …because strategic design sells: emotional connection is a powerful purchase driver 👀 💸

🫣 My biggest fear when I started this project was that my client had her own style - minimalist and sleek - but creating a welcoming interior that stands out usually requires a different route. 🦄 ….

💥she completely embraced the process - and trusted me every step of the way.

I think we did good!

🎀 I believe in not spending a penny on paint or furniture before the rooms are ‘done’ 🏆 🌟

I like a process that provides certainty and results.

This is how I design my clients’ projects - but also what I teach investors to take control of their own design in a more effective way.

The method I developped in a simple step by step process, with easy tools - no fancy softwares.
I teach experienced investors, and the ones starting, but all have the same goal:

🔷USING DESIGN TO MAKE THEIR INVESTMENT WORK HARDER 🔷

⭐️ My 50th review!!!

And a perfect summary of why treating DESIGN as a PROFIT GENERATOR is still one of the most underestimated strategies in property. 📈

In Loraine’s words: 🫶

“One of very few decisions along my property investment journey that I look back on with absolutely no regrets whatsoever.”

YES!!, I create great interiors. 🐸
(…I have finally cured my imposter syndrome 🤣)

And YES, the result is a property that can steal the show amongst its competition. 👀

But the reason why I deserve 5 stars every time is because my clients are property investors…

and I HELP THEM MAKE MORE MONEY! 💰

Simple as that.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Love 💛

💎 PERCEIVED VALUE… a bit like a mind game, but with cushions 🤣

When you’re trying to manage the furnishing cost of a property, it’s natural to try and spread the spend evenly across the room.

But actually, I would recommend almost the opposite.

Don’t spend evenly but instead, decide where you want the VALUE to show. 👀

One of the little rules I follow…..

Every room needs a HERO. 💎

Maybe it’s a large statement light, a beautiful Roman blind, or one that works wonders - the oversized artwork.

Then let the cheaper pieces support it.

I’ll happily use an inexpensive IKEA dining table and Amazon chairs, for example… and then spend £40 on a fabulous vase and flowers to go ON it 🤣

Because designing effectively isn’t about making everything special ….It’s knowing WHAT needs to feel special.

And that’s how you create
◽️▫️ PERCEIVED VALUE ▫️◽️
without necessarily spending more.

When somebody is choosing where to stay, where to live or even what property to buy

perceived value can be every bit as powerful as value itself. 💎

🛏️ Give people a reason to keep scrolling… 👀

The longer you’ve got their attention on your listing, the closer you’re getting to:

“YES. This one.” 💎

These are bedrooms from the SAME property.

They belong together in style and colour, but they all have their own character.

There are 2 reasons I design bedrooms like this:

👉 Different guests like different things. Especially in this project, which is a multi-generational holiday let. Giving each bedroom its own personality means everyone can find their favourite.

But also…

👉 CURIOSITY. 👀

When somebody is scrolling through your listing, you want them wondering:

“Ooooh… what’s the NEXT room like?”

I don’t want them to have worked out bedroom 4 because they’ve already seen bedrooms 1, 2 and 3 🤣

Keep them interested. Keep them looking. Give them another reason to choose YOURS. 💎

🏠 Imagine being a tenant viewing this HMO before and after its refresh! 👀

Same property. Same room.
BUT how much MORE would you be prepared to pay to live there after?

And from a landlord’s point of view, the benefits are real :

👉 Better tenant profile
👉 Less void
👉 Higher rent per room

In fact, it’s not unusual for my HMO clients to achieve £100 more per room after a refresh.

The aim was to make every room somewhere that felt GOOD to live in🔷🔷🔷🔷 Because that’s what brings people in!!!!!!!

This communal area received a bit more colour and personality because it was quite a small and awkward room with loads of doors so had to balance it with a great atmosphere.
The bedrooms were kept much gentler, while still maintaining the same identity - and colours scheme.

💎 That is the reality of using design as a profit enhancer!

That might be how I rename my job: the profit enhancer! 💛 💵

🍦Your property probably DOESN’T need to appeal to everyone.

…. I know this may sound counterintuitive when the aim is to get as many people in as possible 💵

Strangely, trying to appeal to more people doesn’t necessarily mean more bookings….

We naturally want to create something that lots of people will like.

So we make it NICE 🍎. Nothing too offensive or different 🫪🌶️. Something most people will look at and think
“yes, that’s lovely.” 🙂

But have you seen how much LOVELY there is out there now!!! 🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠

…. And with AI coming onto the scene, creating something that simply looks good is going to become easier and easier.

And for me, this is where the mentality needs to change.

We’re not just designing rooms.
👉 We need to focus on creating an
🔮🏖️⛩️ EXPERIENCE. 💎💈🪆

Something with enough personality and identity that the market YOU are targeting connects with.

And yes… some people might look at it and think “absolutely not for me” 🤢

That’s OK - they will have dozens of nice properties to choose from 🤣🤣

And actually, this isn’t just a theory. From my own experience, the clients who have had the confidence to push the identity further are the ones whose properties have tended to perform the best.

That’s something I’ve seen again and again.

So my best advice on that topic:

👉 Don’t try to create a nice property.

🤓Yes, I have an A+ in helping property investors make money! 💎

What I do is help investors reap the benefits of having a property that brings people in.

And at that… I am indeed VERY GOOD 😆

So if you need a hand with a refresh, a consultation, or simply want to understand how I work and how I could help, just get in touch.

Sometimes looking again at how your design is performing can make a big difference to your return.

📍 How did your property actually perform this summer? ☀️ 🖼️
And I don’t mean just financially….

As the busy SA summer season comes to an end, it’s a really good time to take stock of what actually worked and maybe what didn’t. This is precious information. 🌟

👉 If I had to sit down and plan how to improve next year, these are the things I’d be looking at:

1. Read your reviews and look for patterns 🙈🙊🙉
Not just the complaints. What do guests repeatedly LOVE? That’s often where the real opportunity is.
Something that comes up few times, then amplify it - refer to it in your listing - milk it! 🐮

2. Ask yourself: what will guests remember? 💓
If the answer is simply “it’s nice”, I’d definitely dig deeper. What makes your property recognisable amongst 10 - 20 others? It has to have its own identity, give it a story, a feeling. Honestly, the braver my clients are, the better their properties perform!!!!

3. Look at your listing 👀🥀
Do those first five photos still make you want to book? And are the photos actually doing the property justice?…. And are these photos good enough??

An average photographer will have a significant negative impact on your results…. And if you took the photos on your phone 🫪 then I promise you, get a good photographer to do it for you. The difference is real 💎 not just online, but in your bank account!

4. Check your competition
The market moves quickly. Look at what guests can book today for a similar price. Does yours still stand out and, more importantly, does it give them a reason to choose it?

🍓I🚜DEN🏀TI🧩TY🏖️

5. Find your weakest room
You don’t necessarily need to refresh an entire property. Sometimes one tired or disconnected room is simply letting everything else down.

You’ve now got months of real guest behaviour to learn from. Use it.
I personally would dissect it as a source of inspiration for how to get my property to the next level!

Sometimes making a property work harder isn’t about throwing more money at it. It’s about knowing where the money will actually make a difference.

With love x

👉 When I first discuss projects and hear “We’re targeting contractors, so it doesn’t need to be that special.”

💯 That’s usually where I know there’s a huge opportunity being missed. 🐽

I remember a SA refresh on a property that had only ever attracted contractors during the week. Just one month after the refresh, it secured 3 months’ worth of weekend leisure bookings… something it hadn’t achieved in the previous three years. 🤯

That is quite the proof on the pudding 🍒

✨ By raising the standard to appeal to leisure guests, you naturally create a property that also attracts contractors, opening yourself up to a much bigger market.

I also work with clients who want to appeal to both, and that’s exactly why we raise the design to a leisure standard. What this means is going beyond functionality to create a warm, welcoming space with personality which is exactly what families and couples are willing to pay more for, but also what contractors genuinely enjoy staying in.

🚀 One design. Two markets. Better occupancy. Better returns.
