On Tuesday 6th December, Founder of Renovating For Profit, Cherie Barber and celebrity interior designer James Treble launched their latest collaboration, the Interior Design For Profit online course at a VIP media event at Doltone House’s SOHO.
Top-tier industry media were invited to an afternoon of canapes and an exclusive sneak-peek of the course at the unique heritage venue on the foreshore of Sydney Harbour’s Pyrmont.
Cherie, dubbed by the media as “Australia’s Renovation Queen” and a regular on Network Ten’s popular, prime time lifestyle program, ‘The Living Room’, welcomed the guests and introduced the Interior Design For Profit course, a project that had been two years in the making.
Media were then invited to try out the course for themselves – and loved it!
Interior Design For Profit is Australia’s most technologically advanced interior design and property styling course, designed to equip users with a set of detailed guidelines that can be applied to the renovation and styling of any property, room by room.
Well-designed and styled properties evoke emotion in buyers and help secure a higher price at sale time. In fact, a survey from Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corp found that properties that are staged and styled before selling resulted in a minimum of 6% above the asking price, compared with properties that were not. The survey also found that staged homes sell 79% faster, and a faster sale reduces mortgage holding costs (who doesn’t love that, right?).
Once enrolled, the entire Interior Design For Profit course is available online instantly. Whether you’re at home, the office, a café or mid-flight, users can access the course anywhere, anytime, and go at their own pace.
Interior Design For Profit teaches all the inside tricks professional property stylists use to make any home look amazing and stage it for sale. The course consists of 11 modules which cover everything from choosing the right interior style and planning your project to colour and lighting schemes.
It includes a Moodboard App, Floorplanner with 3D elevation imaging and Budget Tracker, making it easy to use for even the most novice of property stylists. 95+ practical yet challenging exercises ensure users develop the know-how to execute an interior design and property staging project from end-to-end.
Users learn how to get to grips with the entire process of designing and fitting out a bathroom and kitchen and how both the scale and placement of furniture has a dramatic impact on how people view a room and move through it.
Cherie Barber has made a career out of turning old properties into renovated gems. She is Australia’s leading renovation expert and a highly sought-after public speaker with over two decades of profitable renovations under her belt.
