Overview this course

Renovating is not just about paint and pretty pictures—it’s a disciplined way to unlock value on purpose. Cosmetic Renovations For Profit by Cherie Barber is a complete, step-by-step system that shows you how to identify the right property, decide what to change (and what to leave alone), manage the build with professional rigor, and exit—either by renting or selling—with confidence. It’s designed for homeowners and investors who want a proven process, not guesswork.

Across 8 modules and 60 video tutorials, you’ll build a toolkit that covers strategy, suburb and property due diligence, negotiation, planning approvals, renovation project management, sales and leasing best practices, and portfolio thinking. You’ll also get downloadable course notes, checklists, templates, calculators, a construction project plan, and state-specific legal insights so every decision is documented and defensible.

While many examples reference Australian regulations and market dynamics, the principles are globally useful: buy right, plan precisely, execute efficiently, and measure outcomes against your strategy. Whether your goal is to create instant equity in your home, flip a cosmetic fixer, or renovate to hold for long-term income, you’ll learn a method that prioritizes return on investment, compliance, and risk control.

At a glance

• Format: 8 modules • 60 video tutorials • ~20 hours of training

• Resources: Downloadable notes • 50+ checklists, templates & calculators • Construction project plan

• Focus: Strategy → Suburb research → Property assessment → Buy → Plan → Renovate → Rent/Sell

• Outcome: A practical, numbers-driven playbook for cosmetic renovations—from first inspection to final handover

Why should you choose this course?

• A strategy-first approach. Before you pick up a hammer, you’ll clarify your equity position, borrowing capacity, passive-income targets, and risk profile—then choose the right buy/renovate/exit path.

• Due diligence made methodical. Learn a repeatable checklist for suburb and property research so you avoid overpaying and target assets with genuine uplift potential.

• Professional project management. Use the construction project plan, scopes of work, and sequencing guides to run your reno like a pro—on time, to budget, to spec.

• Clear rules for value creation. Discover which cosmetic changes reliably move a valuation (and which are cosmetic in name only), so every dollar has a job.

• Negotiation that protects margin. Structure offers, conditions, and timelines to reduce downside risk and widen your profit window.

• Compliance built in. Understand planning requirements, building approvals, and documentation standards so your projects stay above board.

• Two exit playbooks. Whether you rent or sell, you’ll follow proven processes to optimize valuation, days on market, tenant quality, and tax positioning.

• Led by a recognized practitioner. The curriculum reflects Cherie Barber’s decades of hands-on experience and a structured framework refined across 175+ renovations.

This program is educational and general in nature. Always seek advice from qualified professionals (legal, financial, tax, planning) in your jurisdiction.

What You’ll Learn

Each module builds a concrete skill set—paired with tools you can use immediately.

1) Structure & Strategy (Module 1)
Lay the foundation for a portfolio, not a one-off project.

• Calculate starting and usable equity; map how leverage and buffers affect risk.

• Set passive-income targets and translate them into an acquisition plan (how many properties, what types, over what horizon).

• Understand high-level asset protection, tax considerations, and estate planning so ownership structures align with your goals.

• Choose a pathway (renovate-to-rent, renovate-to-sell, renovate-your-own home) and match it to your budget and timeline.

2) Suburb Due Diligence (Module 2)
Buy your profit at the postcode level—before you ever tour a property.

• Study market cycles and indicators that drive supply, demand, and rental yields.

• Identify capital-growth triggers (infrastructure, demographics, employment nodes) and filter for “not-yet-boomed” areas.

• Build a suburb scorecard: price bands, days on market, vendor discounting, vacancy rates, and comparable sale trends.

• Shortlist suburbs with affordable entry points and strong upside—then pressure-test them against your strategy.

3) Property Due Diligence (Module 3)
Turn a listing into a spreadsheet—and let the numbers speak.

• Use Cherie’s property checklist to review layout, defects, services, site constraints, and value-add potential.

• Run feasibility calculators: purchase price, stamp duty and costs, renovation budget, holding costs, realistic resale/rent.

• Triangulate true market value with comps and appraisals; avoid emotional overbids.

• Decide quickly with confidence: green-light, renegotiate, or walk away.

4) Buy the Property (Module 4)
Negotiate like a professional dealmaker.

• Structure offer conditions (finance, building & pest, longer/shorter settlement) to improve outcomes.

• Manage relationships with agents respectfully while keeping your leverage.

• Understand the contract exchange and settlement timeline; plan your pre-settlement prep so trades can start day one.

5) Planning (Module 5)
Design for valuation, not just aesthetics.

• Prioritize changes that add disproportionate value: floor-plan fixes, kitchen/bath refreshes, kerb appeal, storage, lighting.

• Recognize when approvals or permits are required and what documents councils typically expect.

• Use the Construction Project Plan to sequence works for cost and time efficiency; prepare scopes to brief trades precisely.

• Reference state-specific building/renovating fact sheets (where applicable) so your compliance is documented.

6) Renovate (Module 6)
Execute with discipline—because budget overruns erase profit.

• Build a critical path: demolition → rough-ins → first-fix carpentry → waterproofing → finishes → clean & stage.

• Apply procurement tactics: bulk-buy staples, lock delivery windows, and create contingency lines for unforeseen issues.

• Master trade coordination: daily site diaries, progress checklists, sign-offs, and variations control.

• Track time, cost, and quality with simple dashboards so you can intervene early.

7) Rent Your Property (Module 7)
Renovate-to-hold? Set the asset up to perform.

• Order a post-reno valuation; use improved equity to advance your plan responsibly.

• Choose a property manager, set service standards, and implement tenant selection criteria.

• Understand common rental deductions and maintenance policies to protect cash flow.

• Build a performance rhythm: rent reviews, vacancy prevention, and long-life materials that reduce capex surprises.

8) Sell Your Property (Module 8)
Renovate-to-flip? Extract the premium.

• Interview and select a top-performing sales agent; align pricing strategy and marketing schedule.

• Stage for buyer psychology: flow, light, scent, and touchpoints that elevate perceived value.

• Design a marketing mix (photography, video, copy, social, portals) that attracts the right buyers fast.

• Negotiate offers and manage the countdown to settlement with checklists that avoid last-minute friction.

Tools that make the difference

• 50+ checklists, templates & calculators for feasibility, budget control, and site management.

• Construction project plan that autogenerates scopes of work and maps out sequencing.

• Step-by-step guides for both renovate-to-rent and renovate-to-sell pathways.

• Optional add-ons: data services for market analytics and style guides that streamline finishes selection.

Skill outcomes you can expect

• A numbers-first discipline: feasibility before feelings.

• The ability to spot profitable fixer-uppers and price them accurately.

• Confidence to plan, brief, and run a cosmetic renovation without chaos.

• A repeatable exit playbook that preserves margin when renting or selling.
