It's an honest look at the sandwich generation... the people caught between raising kids and guiding ageing parents through one of the biggest moves of their lives. In this episode...

    The Right Move | Home of the Century | EP 7

    Everyone tells you renovating is the smart money. So what makes a couple stop, look at the plans they'd already had approved, and walk away from the whole thing? That's the question at the heart of this episode. Erin and Darren find out how Sally and Nick learned to trust their timing... when to sell, when to hold, and when the renovation everyone assumes is the clever play is actually the riskier one. It's a conversation about reading the market, knowing your own limits, and making the move that's right for your family rather than the one that looks good on paper. In this episode... How to decide between renovating and buying new... and the hidden risks that tip the balance Why your personality and your relationship matter more than the spreadsheet How to recognise when it's genuinely the right time to sell What to watch for when you buy a home from people you know How to stop buying with your heart and start buying on the numbers 🌐 homeofthecentury.com.au 📘 facebook.com/c21.homeofthecentury 📸 instagram.com/C21_homeofthecentury 🎵 tiktok.com/@c21_homeofthecentury Home of the Century is the podcast that takes you inside the honest conversations most people never get to have... first home buyers who backed themselves against the odds, families who chose to stay and build, investors who made bold moves at exactly the right moment, and everyday people who found a way in when the door felt firmly closed.
