Regina Mangan, of Liberty Blue Estate Agents, shares (very generously) all of the systems that she uses in the property rental side of her business. During our conversation it becomes completely clear that any agent would be well advised to automate the "low value" work and allow their staff become focussed on client facing work. Listening to Regina, you will be inspired! I certainly was.

I usually talk about some aspect of buying property, but the crazy crows flapping and nesting outside have inspired me to think about nesting and how we live in our homes. This week I'm taking a look at the purpose of each space in my house and have been surprised at what's being going on under my nose!

In this episode, I talk to a fascinating interior designer about the many shades of grey, how white is not always the best colour for your ceiling, and how to choose colours for a north-facing room. Ger Cooney has lots to say about colour, and this is a really informative chat.

Unless you've got your money sitting in euros in an Irish bank account or an up to date letter of loan offer from the bank please don't spend any energy at all on your property search. Instead, put all of your focus and energy into making one of these two things happen. This week I look at five ways in which money can be slippery and tricky so you've got to keep a firm grasp on it before you ever glance at myhome.ie or daft.ie

It's schools Rugby season and this week I talk to Francis Fullen of CI Structures about the innovative sports hall he constructed for Blackrock College. The interview takes us behind the scenes of the deal to places as far afield as Bahrain as we hear tales of Dinosaurs and triple Birthday cakes. It gets a little technical for a few minutes half way through but stay tuned... it's worth it. Thanks for listening.

We might all agree that it's hard to find "the one". When it comes to property, it's not much different. It's pretty rare that the desires, needs, budget and readiness of a buyer intersect directly with the wishes, needs and readiness of a seller. This week we're talking about understanding yourself and your strengths as a bidder and discussing how to make yourself a strong buyer by being informed, organised, energetic and consistent.
