Before you call the agent or start planning that kitchen makeover, this episode of Her Money Matters is a great place to start. I’m joined by professional Property Valuer Belinda Botzolis, who takes us inside the world of property valuations.  We cover off what they really mean, how they’re done, and why understanding your home’s true worth can help you make every decision with more clarity and confidence.
