Common Mistakes made by most new Home-Buyers

Your home reflects who you are. When moving into a new space, give it room to grow with you and don't try and do too much too early on. Choose to invest in quality furniture pieces you love, not simply because they are on-trend, and make sure they work with your lifestyle. If you're the type of person who snuggles up on the couch with saucy spaghetti, choose an easy to clean, durable fabric with a fiber guard and remember aesthetics should always follow practicality. Additionally, don't ever underestimate the value of good storage - everything should have a home. - Mel Cook, Cooked Design Studio
