The School of Renovating teaches women in Australia and New Zealand to renovate strategically: to turn the home they already own into retirement income, or to build a renovation business one profitable project at a time.
From $99 a month, with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Many women we meet are sitting on a home worth far more than their super. They know it could be working harder. What stops them isn't ability. It's not knowing which move to make first, who to trust, and how to stop the budget blowing out.
That's exactly what we teach.
For women 40 plus who want the home they already own to fund their retirement. Renovate, rent a room, add a granny flat, downsize smart or start an Airbnb: we help you choose the right move and make it without gambling your future.
For women ready to renovate project after project. Learn our 100k Reno Profit system for Cosmetic Plus projects, then get coached all the way with Wonder Women.

Bernadette Janson has been renovating since she was 13. With her husband Stephen, a construction consultant with 40 years in the industry, she has spent more than 30 years renovating and teaching.
At 55, Bernadette realised she had neglected her own financial wellbeing. That moment shaped The School of Renovating: a place where women learn to make renovation pay, with honest numbers and real support. She also hosts the She Renovates podcast.
"I have learnt so much since beginning the course! Your course has well and truly paid for itself and that's only one year of premiums, not to mention how much we will save knowing what we didn't know previously when we take on our next project."
