In a one-of-a-kind deal, two of Papua New Guineaâs most trusted real estate companies â a developer and a builder â have joined forces to provide affordable housing. Their joint project will feature more than 140 lots of land located in Bomana, on the outskirts of Port Moresby.
The Glory Group of Companies (GGC) is currently celebrating over 14 years in business, specializing in medium to high-end housing developments, which they continue to do. As owners of vast plots of land, pairing with the countryâs leading steel supplier and kit home builder, Atlas Steel, to offer affordable housing seemed like a great opportunity.
âWe have a considerable number of fully serviced (power, water, sewerage provisions) lots at Bomana available for sale and we had received solid interest from dozens of Papua New Guineans wanting to purchase it,â said Glory Groupâs Director, Lee.
âThe partnership with Atlas Steel addresses this growing demand for more economical homes with fully-serviced land,â he continued. âWhile Glory Group manufactures high-quality homes for clients, our market feedback indicated a growing demand for lower entry pricing. This is where Atlas Steel comes in with their modular homes which are within our clientsâ budgets in relation to their loan eligibility.â
The agreement offers affordable housing to hundreds of citizens and the chance for companies to house its employees. It also ensures new residents will live in accessible homes in Bomana Portion 3281, only eight miles outside the capital of Port Moresby.
âThe majority of land in Port Moresby does not have provisions for water, electricity, and sewerage which can be a challenge for potential homeowners,â said Lee. âWith our partnership, prospective clients now have a solution for a land and home package which makes it easier to obtain a bank loan.â
Although the homes are affordable, customization is possible if the buyer wishes to upgrade. Also, the builders are offering a low-price guarantee for the first four months that the homes are on the market.
Financing is being provided by Panel Banker, the largest bank in Papua New Guinea, with a First Home-Ownership-Scheme (FHOS) mortgage available at 4% for 40 years up to K400,000.00
A model show home is available for immediate viewing at Atlas Steelâs expansive display center on Cameron Road. All Atlas Steel homes are made from premium New Zealand Steel which is used for framing and sheeting. Additionally, Atlas steel homes feature aluminum windows, steel stairs with handrails, and all steel connection bolts, and fasteners.
Steel-made structures are low maintenance, fire-resistant, strong, and termite-free. They offer increased durability and lifespans compared to timber-based structures.
In nearly 15 years of business, GGC has prided itself on building safe, responsible, and eco-friendly homes and buildings. It currently has several mid-priced to luxury sector projects underway in the Port Moresby area. These include the following:
Grand Eden Stage 1
Grand Eden Stage 1 is a newly established residential development with proximity to urban amenities.
The Junction 8, Midleton, The King Plaza
The Junction 8, Midleton, The King Plaza are mixed-use developments, uniquely suited to business owners to run their retail business or as offices.

There are two main types of damages that can occur to a house. The first one is a case of Wear & Tear and the second is a Defect. It is expected that during the occupancy of a house, there will be some amount of damage done to the buildingâs fixtures, furniture and fittings, etc. However, the nature in which these damages occur needs to be clear to homeowners, so they are aware of which can be categorized as a Wear & tear and a defect before attempting/requesting repairs.
What is a defect?
A defect is a form of damage that can be visible to homeowners. Defects are mostly flaws in the materials of the home such as faulty electrical wiring hiding behind the walls or a well-hidden termite or mold problem due to poor roofing designs. Such damages will not be noticeable at first, but after some time they may appear.
There are two types of defects; latent and patent defects. According to Suttling (2021), latent defects are flaws that are not visible and cannot be found by reasonable inspection during or in completion of construction. Whereas, patent defects are flaws that can be easily identified during regular inspection in the course of construction.
Defects may occur due to the following factors:
Poor workmanship
Changes of use
Poor design
Environmental influences
A defect being a flaw in a building/property, can be replaced or repaired. Some defects may easily be fixed while others will take longer due to availability of manpower and materials in accordance to the nature of the defect. For example, a roof leakage will require equipment such as a hydraulic crane (cherry picker) if this is unavailable, scaffolding will need to be erected, which will cause the repairs to take much longer. This also depends on the availability of materials, for example, a flooring defect, if the materials required to fix this are not available, repairs will be delayed.
A defect is a flaw in the structure of the home either due to the production stages of the materials used or poor handling of materials during construction. However, most often, defects can be repaired once identified.
A Wear & Tear refers to the gradual damage that one would expect upon daily usage of an item over time. Wear & Tear is exactly as it sounds. These are damages that are likely to occur during the normal and intended use of a material in a home. For example, scrapes on walls or surfaces, faded materials such as floor wood, loose door handles/locks, ceiling stains, etc. All these are damages that will occur because of their intended daily usage.
Damages done through Wear & Tear can be repaired at times. Such as a loose door handle can be screwed back in place, or a cupboard door hanging from its hinges can be retightened. However, most often, a damage that is categorized as Wear & Tear cannot be repaired but will need to be replaced. For example, the silver finishing peeling off a door knob will need to be replaced with a new knob or need to be refurbished.
However, there are cases where homeowners may cause certain damages that are reasonably unacceptable. For example, broken windows, broken door handles/locks, unapproved paint jobs or unapproved infrastructure changes, etc. These, although are at times, expected to occur, they will not be categorized as a Wear & Tear.

#000000;”>*Google Images: Loose door handles
What is the difference between a wear & tear and a defect?
A defect can be repaired. For a Wear & Tear the damages can be repaired, however, most often these damages will require a replacement rather than a repair.
The main difference between a wear & tear and a defect can also be seen in the nature by which these damages occur. For wear & tear, it is simply the gradual or natural damage done to items due to their intended use. Whereas, for defects, these are flaws in the building/home that were done without human action but it was made possible by human error.

Before you pick up a plunger or resort to other methods of unclogging a toilet, you must know the reason for the blockage.
Here are four (4) common causes of a clogged toilet:
Hard Water
If the water in your home has a high mineral content this will result to hard water. The minerals in the water will form a white substance making it difficult for waste to pass through leading to a clogged toilet.
Objects that cannot dissolve
Toilet paper is developed in a way that it will dissolve faster when it comes into contact with water, this makes it easier to pass through the drain pipes. For objects such as cotton balls, feminine hygiene products, hair strands, and hand wipes, they do not dissolve easily which will lead to a blockage.
Too much toilet paper
Although mentioned in the above point that toilet paper dissolves in water, too much toilet paper used at one time can result to a clogging, as that much toilet paper, will take a longer time to dissolve resulting in a blockage.
How to use a plunger to unclog a toilet:
#ed7d31;”>Step 1: Choosing the right plunger for the job
There are two main types of plungers; the standard plunger which is shaped like half a basket-ball and the other is with an extended flange for ensuring a tight seal and thus extra power for suction. Both can be used to plunge a clogged toilet depending on the severity of the blockage.
#ed7d31;”>Step 2: It might be messy
Before you begin plunging the toilet, ensure that rags are placed around toilet to catch any water spilling out. If the toilet bowl is filled to the brim with water, scoop half of the water out to prevent any spillage. Remember to wear gloves
#ed7d31;”>Step 3: Ensuring a tight seal
Place the plunge in a position that allows a tight seal between the tool and the toiletâs drain hole. Once there is a good seal, you can began to plunge up and down always ensuring that you do not lose the grip of the tight seal. This is so to ensure, a steady suction that will eventually unclog the substance in the drainpipe.
#ed7d31;”>Step 4: Start plunging
Once you have a tight seal between the plunger and the drain hole, plunge down and hold for 3 to 5 seconds and release, repeat this motion until the substance clogging the drain is removed. The motion of the air and water in the pipe created by the plunge will push the substance that is clogging the drain out of the pipe.

Apart from using a plunger here are two recommended remedies that you can use to unclog your toilet, if there is no plunger available.
Â
#ed7d31;”>Remedy 1: Hot Water
ďˇPouring hot water down the toilet drain pipe for it to loosen the clog. Refrain from using boiling hot water. Hot water from the tap can still be used in this instance. If the toilet bowl is full of water, remove water with scoop before pouring hot water in. Once you pour the hot water in, wait for 5 minutes to test flushing, to see if it removed the clogged substance.
#ed7d31;”>Remedy 2: Soap and Hot Water
Pour half a cup of detergent soap into toilet bowl. The soap detergent will act as a lubricant to help the substance clogging the pipe to go down the drain. If soap detergent does not remedy the clog, pour hot water (not boiling hot) to help the process. The mixture of detergent soap and hot water should help unclog the pipe. A substitute for this can be baking soda and vinegar, whereby, you pour a cup of baking soda into toilet bowl followed by 2 cups of vinegar. The fizziness created from this mixture should dissolve any substance that is clogging the pipes.

Many a times, when homeowners hear a short and slow beeping sound from the smoke alarm, they assume it is damaged or requires an electrician to do repairs. But most often, the problem is a simple battery change. Below are steps to follow to identify that the smoke alarm requires a battery change.
Step 1: The type of smoke alarm:
Before you go ahead and change or remove anything from your smoke alarm, you must know what type of smoke alarm it is: There are two types of smoke alarms:
Battery powered smoke alarms- which solely run on battery
Hard-Wired smoke alarms- which are powered by electricity (but they also have a back-up battery for when there is a power outages)
Step 2: Indication of a flat battery:
When your smoke alarm requires a change of batteries, it will give off short beeps/ a chirp-like sound in a constant interval of 30 or 60 seconds. This indicates a flat battery. This indicator applies to both a battery powered smoke alarm and Hard-wired smoke alarm.
Step 3: Remove cover of Smoke Alarm
Some smoke alarm covers are twistable and easy to take off, while others require a screw-driver to remove.
Step 4: Replace Battery
Take out the old batteries and replace with new batteries. Once replaced, slowly twist back/screw back the cover.
Step 5: Test
Locate the test button on your smoke alarm and test to see if the new batteries work. If they do not, check to ensure that batteries are placed properly and retry.
In some cases, the above five (5) steps will not work. This means that you will need to replace the smoke alarm.

Before you pick up your phone to call your local plumbing professional, you can be able to repair/fix a clogged sink or pipe yourself. Most clogged sink or clogged pipes are caused by build-up of particles in the pipe. The following can help you remedy the problem.
Note: Before attempting any of these methods, ensure you are aware of the fittings and design of your homeâs plumbing system to avoid any serious damage.
Use a plunger – If the water in your sink cannot drain, you can use a plunger to dislodge the clog.
Step 1:
Remove dirty water in the sink and refill it with fresh/new water to allow the plunge to work. Ensure that there is enough water in the sink to submerge the plunge.
Step 2:
Place plunge over drain opening/sink hole and plunge up and down in a rapid motion. Slightly plunge up ensuring suction is still in place.
Step 3:
Continue until you dislodge the clog.
If this does not remedy the issue, then you can see below the next option.
Hot Water – If the water in your sink cannot drain out, you can use hot water to dislodge the clog.
Step 1:
Remove the dirty water from the sink until sink is completely empty. This will allow the hot water to enter sink hole directly.
Step 2:
Boil your water.
Step 3:
Once the water boils, pour it directly into the drain opening/sink hole at a steady stream.
Step 4:
Repeat two to three times in order to properly dislodge the clog.
However, if this does not dislodge the clog, then see below for next possible remedy.
Baking Soda and Vinegar Mixture – The baking soda and vinegar mixture helps to dissolve whatever that is clogging up the pipes.
Step 1:
Remove dirty water from sink until sink is completely empty. This will allow the mixture to be poured directly down pipe.
Step 2:
Pour one cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by one cup of vinegar.
Step 3:
Wait 10 to 15 minutes for the mixture to unclog the drain or dissolve the matter.
Step 4:
Pour hot water or use hot water from tap to wash the mixture as well as the substance of the clog down the drain.
This last option is a simple method to rectify the issue.
U-Trap – The U-trap is a pipe just below your sink. This can be removed to let the substance causing the clog to be removed manually.
Step 1:
Place dish or bucket under pipe to catch a spillage when trying to remove U-trap.
Step 2:
Carefully unscrew the threaded caps of the pipe and slowly remove.

WHY HOUSE INSPECTIONS ARE A MUST FOR PNG HOMEOWNERS
Going for an inspection of the house you will purchase is a significant step in the progression of becoming a homeowner. Skyview Estate developer, Glory Development Limited (GDL), promotes and continually reemphasises on the importance of this first step to every potential home buyer inspecting different house models that GDL has to offer. Apart from a potential homeowner âseeing it for themselvesâ, here are other reasons why going for a house inspection is critically important â
WHY HOUSE INSPECTIONS ARE A MUST FOR PNG HOMEOWNERS
Going for an inspection of the house you will buy is an important step in the process of becoming a homeowner. Skyview Estate developer, Glory Development Limited (GDL), emphasises and promotes this very important first step to every potential home buyer â inspecting different house models that GDL has one offer. . Apart from a potential homeowner âseeing it for themselvesâ, here are other reasons why going for a house inspection is crticially important â
1. Real Life Vs. Advertisement
Information provided on an advertisement differs slightly to the real thing. The brochure may mention that the home has 90 square metres of floor space accompanied with a land area of about 40 square metres but unless there is an inspection, a realistic perspective of life with you or your family in terms of budget and lifestyle cannot be made. At Skyview Estate, there are a range of different house models suited to different budgets, family sizes and lifestyle needs. Home inspections enable current and potential homeowners to confirm if the house/unit ticks off all the boxes for them.
2. Seeing the different aspects of the neighbourhood/suburb
You get to see the neighbourhood or suburb that you will be spending the next 20 or so years living in. When our Sales & Marketing executives have inspections, they talk not only about the house/unit being inspected but about also other amenities and services within Skyview Estate. For example at Skyview Estate, there are infrastructural developments such as paved roads, drainage, perimeter fencing and fencing around each house/unit and with other services located within the estate such as an internet cafe, gym and shop; another plus is that there is a bus stop right outside the estate, providing easy access to public transportation for those without vehicles. Also Skyview Estate is connected to main service providers for utilities such as power, water and sewerage and garbage collection. This is the kind of information any good real estate person should explain to any prospective homeowner. Our Sales and Marketing executives are experts in helping Papua New Guineas choose a house that fits their individual requirements.
3. Checking out the security aspect of the neighbourhood/suburb
Another important factor to consider, especially in Port Moresby, is the security aspect as well given the crime rate in all parts of the city. At Skyview Estate, perimeter fencing around the entire estate and around the clock security guards provide an extra layer of security.
To sum up, we reiterate â inspections are critically important to avoid disappointment. After all, owning a house or property is one of the biggest investments youâll make in life. If you would like to come for an inspection at Skyview Estate, we have open show house inspections* every Saturday and Sunday. With open show house, any members of the general public can visit Skyview, without a prior appointment, to do an inspection. The inspections are group inspections starting at the following scheduled timings â
⢠1st group â 9:30 a.m.
⢠2nd group â 10:10 a.m.
⢠3rd group â 10:50 a.m.
Inspections during the week (Monday to Friday) are only by prior appointment with any one of our Sales & Marketing executives. Otherwise, please click here to contact us.

Skyview Estate, situated along the ATS road, 7 Mile in Port Moresby, is more than just houses. It is a complete residential estate that enables and promotes community living. In the past few years, a lot of work has gone into the construction and development of the estate. In this article, we discuss some of the âextrasâ that make Skyview Estate more than just houses.
1. Building Trunk Infrastructure & Other Infrastructure Development
Trunk infrastructure is shared infrastructure for communal use within an area such as a suburb or neighbhourhood. Examples of trunk infrastructure are main public access roads, drainage system, street lights and connection lines to major utilities such as power, water and sewerage. Usually, the responsibility of building trunk infrastructure lies with the government. For Skyview developer â Glory Development Limited (GDL) worked in partnership with each responsible authoritative body, in putting in place all trunk infrastructure within the estate. This was an example of private public partnership (PPP) that has been promoted by the government. With all the trunk infrastructure and other infrastructural development within the estate, Skyview Estate, now is just like any other neighbourhood and suburb within Port Moresby.
At Skyview, you will find the followingâ
⢠concrete sealed roads within the estate
⢠drainage throughout the estate
⢠concrete sealed car park area within each house and unit
⢠solar powered street lights throughout each part of the estate
⢠individual fencing around each house and unit
⢠perimeter fencing around the whole estate
⢠built infrastructure to connect utilities such as power, water & sewerage
⢠recreational area (park & play ground)
2. Building an Estate with Full connection to Main Utility Service Providers
Skyview Estate has full connection to the main utility service providers in the National Capital District for power, water, sewerage and garbage collection. The developer took the necessary steps to making the process of connection to the cityâs main utility lines through working collaboratively with PNG Power, Eda Ranu and the National Capital District Commission (N.C.D.C). Even before building began, there were major works that involved connecting the estate to main utility suppliers; works such as putting up power poles and lines, putting up a water and sewerage line to connect water and sewerage and taking the necessary regulatory steps to set up the estate with the N.C.D.C. for garbage collection. With the estate being fully connected to utilities, this makes Skyview Estate just like any other suburb or neighbourhood with the city.
3. Putting in More Amenities and Services to Create a Fully Integrated Community
Apart from all the other extras at Skyview Estate, there has been the inclusion of other amenities and services for the convenience of homeowners and the surrounding community or visitors to the estate.
In 2017, a commercial shop lot building âKings Plazaâ was built which features:
⢠an internet cafe
⢠a fully operational gym
⢠a convenience shop
⢠many more will be announced in the near future
In early 2018, PNG Paradise College (also known as PNG Paradise High School), set up the building of its new campus at Skyview Estate. The college campus will include classes from kindergarten to Grade 12. Currently, only senior grades (Grades 9-12) have moved to the Skyview Estate campus but as the campus expands, the lower grades will gradually move to this new campus over time.
4. Contributing to Nation Building, One House at a TimeâŚ
The estate is currently in Phase 2 & 3 of its development. At the completion of Phase 2, the estate will have close to 300 built residential allotments; currently, the estate has well over 150 houses already occupied. When fully completed, the estate will have approximately 500 residential allotments. With the current shortage of âhousing stockâ within Port Moresby and the country as a whole, large scale residential developments such as Skyview increase the number of titled and bankable housing. It also is an answer to the increased demand brought about by the introduction of the PNG â government initiated â First Home Ownership Scheme (FHOS) with the Bank South Pacific. In addition, large scale residential property developments require a large workforce in the construction phase. The building of the estate has provided employment opportunities for hundreds of Papua New Guineans over the past couple of years in a wide range of technical fields from general worker to specialist such as plasterers, fabricators, welders and operators of heavy machinery. So Skyview Estate is contributing to nation building, one house at a timeâŚ
