Rayneau's Millennium Highway Hillside Luxury Residences - the Wisest Choice!

Millennium-Hillside Luxury Home
Consider this scenario! In 2014, armed with the financial capacity to purchase a low-priced home of $250,000 you toyed with the idea of purchasing a house in the Castries suburbs. However, you thought you would sit tight and wait to see where the market was heading.  Fast forward to 2019 and that same house, on average, will now cost almost $400,000.

What the above scenario teaches us is the old adage; he who hesitates is lost.

Even if your income doubled in that five-year period, your capacity to borrow has been outstripped by a galloping property market.

Believe it or not, this is actually good news for those considering entering, up-scaling or investing in the property market, because there has never been a better time to invest in a luxurious land and house package for the following reasons.
Floor plan and available lots
Significant Savings
Substantial savings can be made through stamp duty savings on house and land packages. 

On the typical cost of a house and land package, you can expect to save upwards of $5,000 in stamp duty. This is due to the fact that the stamp duty will be on the land component only, unlike established homes which attract stamp duty tax on both the land and house components.

Investment
For those looking to maximize their investment portfolio, a house and land package makes an affordable, customizable and financially sensible investment. The “Millennium-Highway Luxurious Hillside Residences” are in some of the most desirable and infrastructure-rich suburbs of Castries. These are attracting desirable tenants, looking for an enviable lifestyle with easily accessible transportation to the city.

Simplicity
One compelling reason to buy the “Millennium-Highway Luxurious Residence House and Land package” is simplifying of the whole building process on a number of levels.  Consider the following:

a)  Financing
Approaching a lender with a transparent, all-inclusive cost enables a more efficient and streamlined lending process. At Rayneau, we pride ourselves on our transparent pricing structure, taking the guesswork out of budgeting and financing your project.

b) Package deal
The beauty of the house and land package is there are no surprises. By using a reputable specialist such as Rayneau, you have a guarantee of quality and value.  Many home-buyers attempting to go it alone face excessive site costs, soil tests, surveys, council fees and protracted contract negotiations. 

What’s in the house and land package!
The homes built on the millennium highway, on the hillside, a mere 10 minutes drive from the city, lends to a peaceful ambiance, and the majestic scenic views overlooking the Caribbean Sea, makes this residential neighborhood a wise choice at a very affordable price.
A view of Kitchen
Each lot is between 3,300 to 4,000 sq. ft. The building occupies 1000 sq. ft of floor space which includes (3) three-bedrooms, (2) two bathrooms, and kitchen and living room combined.

Not only was this hillside luxury designed to meet the needs of single family living, but also compliments a seamless transformation to multifamily spaciousness, making it easy for additional families to stay at one property whilst still enjoying their own privacy.

At Rayneau we’re not happy until you are.  We are committed to exceeding your expectations at every turn to bring your dream home to life. Visit one of our Millennium Highway Residences today to discover the reason we are consistent in professionalism, home design, building and service.

Restore Your Dead Lawn in These 5 Steps!

We know that the recent spate of dry weather must have taken its toll on your lawn, but with the rains seem to be coming back; Shakeem, our lawn and garden expert at the Corinth branch says, your lawn can look “professionally kept” without breaking the bank. Follow these steps for a greener lawn:
Lawn Before and After Restoration

  • Clear away dead grass and debris.
     You can do this with a leaf rake or by renting a power rake if you have a rather large yard. When you’re done with this step, your shoulders will ache and your lawn will actually look worse. But don’t worry – it’s all part of the plan.
  • Shop grass seeds. Be sure to get a high-quality weed-free seed blend. (Talk to our Customer representative in the lawn and garden department at any of our branches). Choose the best one for your yard based on how much sunlight and traffic your lawn gets.
  • Overseed the lawn. Most of this project will require the use of a spreader. A broadcast spreader throws the seed from the hopper in a circular pattern. A drop spreader works just as it sounds
  • Fertilizer can help new seed grow healthy. Check the label to apply at the recommended timing after overseeding.  After the fertilizer has been spread, sprinkling peat moss over the lawn can help keep the seed moist and also keep the birds from eating all the seed. Spread it by hand or use the spreader.
  • Keep new seeds moist to help them germinate. As the new grass takes hold, deep, infrequent waterings are more effective than short, daily sprinklings. That’s because the roots of weeds grow only in the first two to three inches of soil.
Lawn Care Products at Rayneau Stores

Within about two weeks, you’ll begin to see the new grass coming up. You’ll also see some bare spots, which you’ll want to add seed to by hand and cover with some peat moss to fill in. After about a month the new grass will be able to stand up to mowing. NB: Avoid cutting the grass too low. Leave about 2 to 3-inches of blade height on the grass. After this initial cut, you can go back to your usual mowing height.


Call  or visit any of our branches at Vide Bouteille, Corinth, Babonneau or Monchy for more details.

Refresh Your Tools With Rayneau Rentals and Sales

When it comes to high quality tools, one of the best ways to obtaining and ensuring that you have the proper tools that are well-maintained and of current standards, is renting them. Equipment rental is an industry that thrives on keeping up with the times. Not everyone can afford to keep tools lying around that they don’t use every day which is where tool rentals come in.
At Rayneau Rentals and Sales, we thrive on owning the most modern tools, equipment, and items that we rotate out to users to who need a specific tool for a specific, infrequent job. That way, we can ensure that tools are always being used, that they are never put to waste, and you can spend only on what you need the tool for: that specific job.

Think to yourself, do you really need a welder lying around if you’re not a welder? For jobs that are infrequent, tool rentals are the ideal way of procuring the tools you need, since it’s a waste to spend on something you won’t be using regularly. While that is the main reason, there are other reasons that you may not have considered. 

As time moves forward, industries begin to release more advanced models of their equipment, meaning that if you own a tool that is used only infrequently, chances are, it will become out of date quickly, so that when you actually have to use it, it won’t be of modern standards and will under-perform.

The other reason is equipment maintenance. To ensure that your tool performs properly, regular maintenance is required, but it’s a waste of time to continually maintain a tool you may pull out only a few times a year. Tool rental solves all these problems. Our business revolves around keeping the best tools around. We handle maintenance when our tools aren’t rented out, and since many people can use a tool, it’s never put to waste just lying around one person’s garage, waiting for the day it will be used.

For quality tools, look to Us offering quality equipment rentals from Vide Bouteille, Castries.  You can follow us on Facebook here.

Giving Dad More Doing Power!

Father’s Day is around the corner and if you’re lucky enough to have Dad or Grandpa in your life you are probably stressing out about getting the perfect gift for him. Maybe you don’t want to give him yet another tie. If so, here are some awesome Father’s Day gift ideas sure to propel you into the #1 Favorite Child spot.

Cooler with Handle and Wheels:
Does Dad love fishing? Or boating? Or tailgating? Or camping? Or – you get what I’m saying and I’m sure if that’s your Dad he would love to keep his cool (and more important his drinks, catch, and food’s cool!)  in this hot St Lucia weather these days. Fear not, we carry Rubbermaid and Igloo coolers. These ultra-durable coolers that are proven to keep ice longer. They come in all sorts of sizes so you can pick up just the one that Dad would love the most.
Cooler
High Powered Vacuum Cleaner:
Is your Dad a car owner and you are tired of endless dust, dirt, food crumbs or pet hair inside of his vehicle?
This Father’s Day are you looking for a useful gift for Dad – a small but powerful car vacuum cleaner?
We are proud to introduce you a NEW HIGH-POWERED MODEL of the hand held vacuum cleaner - Majic 12V - 90W, Auto Vacuum Cleaner.
Car Vacuum Cleaner
Grill Accessories:
If Mom has already bought Dad a grill, fear not, we’ve got lots of grilling accessories. Why not fill a bucket or basket with the necessary accessories or even shop one of our grill accessories kit?  Save the other idea for his birthday and you are all set. I’m telling you, the best thing about someone owning a grill – you are set on gifts for a long time.
Grill Accessories
Stanley FatMax Tape Measure
All projects start with the layout and a good tape measure makes this step quick and easy. The 25-foot Fat Max from Stanley is our winner in this department, as it’s easy to read the oversized markings and 11 -foot stand out (the distance the tape will extend without breaking), which allows you to make longer
Tape Measure
Channellock 440 Plier
At some point we all have to do a little mechanical work. Pump Pliers are great for this task, because they are longer than traditional pliers so you get more leverage. With this adjustable 10 inch pair by Channellock, you'll be able to get a tight grip on not only small nuts and bolts, but also larger plumbing fixtures. Don’t forget to shut off the water first.
Lock Plier
Soldering Gun:
Is Dad into electronics? How about getting him the Weller D550PK! It’s the perfect soldering gun for bringing professional quality and efficient heat to the serious hobbyist user. This gun heats in just 6 seconds and includes three tips, flux brush, and a blow molded case for easy storage and transport.
Weller Soldering Gun
Above all, remember, the biggest gift is quality time and we sincerely hope you have a chance to spend loads of that with your father, grand-father, step-father, adoptive father or whoever else have been a great dad to you. 

           Happy Fathers Day!!!  Much love from RG Group of Companies Ltd!

The Hurricane Season Officially Starts Today - Get Prepared!

June is here and with it comes the beginning of the Atlantic Ocean’s hurricane season, which lasts from June 1st until November 30th.

Each year, forecasts are issued about the upcoming hurricane season, which are extremely important as they allow us to be prepared for the possible consequences these meteorological phenomena may bring and be more alert.

Hurricane season forecasts give an estimate of the number of tropical hurricanes that are expected in this season. The ability and accuracy of these forecasts depends on factors such as sea surface temperatures and oscillations of the global climate system

For the entire Atlantic hurricane season, meteorologists forecasts there will be a total of nine to 15 named storms (39 mph or higher winds), of which four to eight could become hurricanes (74 mph or higher winds), including two to four major hurricanes (111 mph or higher winds).

An average hurricane season produces 12 named storms, of which six become hurricanes, including three major hurricanes.

In spite of the near average season one must be cognizant of the fact that it only takes one storm to create havoc. At Rayneau, we encourage all St Lucians to shop hurricane supplies and be prepared.

 Below are hurricane supplies available at our stores at Monchy, Babonneau, Corinth and Vide Bouteille. #ShopRayneau












Rayneau encourages people to prepare for hurricane season by purchasing flood insurance and having emergency provisions on hand — no matter how many storms are predicted it only takes one. Follow us on FaceBook or our website.
