Events 43 maltatoday, Sunday, 2 november 2014 If you're looking to sell a house but know how difficult it can be – stop worrying for a moment and consider a genuine alternative to your current real estate options. Recently launched in Malta, Home- SaleMalta.com promises a fresh ap- proach for buyers and sellers, with a 100% online and 100% commission- free approach that is renowned over- seas for its fast and effective success. "We're not a listing agency that waits for a 'chance' buyer to find you," explains company founder Ju- lie Mckenzie. "Our mission is to get your property out there in front of every potential buyer in Malta, or anywhere else in the world for that matter, as well as to save you thou- sands in commission fees in the process. "We reach out to potential buyers nationally and internationally using every medium that is available to us, and we do everything (and more) that you would expect from your re- al estate agent, to get your property from 'listed' to 'sold'," she continues. Having developed and sold prop- erties for 30 years both locally and overseas, Mckenzie, who is origi- nally from the UK, has a specialised understanding of the industry and how to get a property moving. "From home staging to the perfect photography we have the knowledge and we're here to help," she says. "As a result we have already experienced success for our clients and interest is growing every day." HomeSaleMalta.com works by charging a nominal upfront fee that covers all of its services, and then takes absolutely no commis- sion once the property is sold. The €299+VAT charge includes the property set-up on the website, a set of professional photos that sell the property inside and out, the creation of professional f loor plans, and local and international adver- tising. "Our extensive network includes property lawyers, notaries and ar- chitects, as well as our sales spe- cialists so we have all aspects cov- ered," continues Mckenzie. "We put a real focus on customer care and are here to take the hassle out of real estate. We believe we can prove to Maltese buyers and sellers that there is a better and more ef- fective way of selling or buying a house here. "We are absolutely dedicated to getting people moving and I really do believe this is the future of real estate in Malta," Mckenzie adds. iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus now available at all Vodafone outlets Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have finally arrived in Malta and are exclusively available at all Vodafone retail outlets.

Scandinavian time- lessness is blended with Boss's finest components. Modern minimalism meets casual details: architectural shapes work quite well with natural fabrics, colors are straightfor- ward, too. Boss filters the DNA of the Nordic st yle: It's about a me- ticulous dress-code without trying too hard. Think Scandinavian archi- tecture like Oslo's new, land- mark opera house: a unique example of precision and con- temporary design, edgy but amiable. Boss Menswear fol- lows this idea and presents a collection full of restrained, yet easy pieces: a double- breasted boxy jacket, pinstripe suits in graphite-grey wool combined to brown turtleneck sweaters, nav y blue abstract paisley prints on a velvet tux- edo jacket. Dressing up and down of- ten goes hand in hand with Scandinavian st yle. There is a work-wear feel to many looks: button-down-shirts and knit ties are paired with long cardigan-jackets, casual nav y blue khakis and massive leather boots. We see cuffed narrow slim pants, an ice blue leather jacket with a clean, ar- chitectural structure – worn with a winter classic like the thick cable knit sweater. The Boss colors are inspired by the polar circle landscapes – from light chalkstone grey to dark arctic ocean-blue and deep purple. The accessories have a laid back functional- it y, best suited for the modern traveler. Bags are spacious: take the tote bag that gives the impression of a weekend- er. Shoes are modest: Suede Chelsea boots are getting a minimalist makeover with su- per thin soles. This collection shows how to pull it off. Julie Mckenzie
