G’day team,
Is anyone out there actually involved in Property Development as a form of investment?. Im wondering whether I have what it takes to become a developer and I’d like to hear from someone with the erxperience. I know of a short course in Melbourne that will help, has anyone done this also…Cheers..[biggrin]
Hi Tycoon,
You may like to visit Michael Yardneys website – he is Melbourne based at http://www.metropole.com.au
There is another person Peter Combden (sp?) – might be worth doing a google search. Peter also had an ad in the recent API.
PS – haven’t done either course though.

The University of Western Sydney also used to run short courses on this subject.

For those in New Zealand [or Australia] interested in a quality property related course
, I recently reviewed information from Massey University.They appear to offer very good programs for those wishing to learn the fundamentals of real estate development, management and/or investment.
I understand these programs can be conducted by way of correspondence – although contact Massey University to confirm this.

For those interested in learning about property development, keep in mind the fundamentals can not be learned by way of a brief seminar or book.
Property development is a specialized and often high-risk profession [whether the project is large or small] and successful property developers generally utilize the skills of others with many years experience [the “development team”] in order to limit risk and achieve a profitable result.

Hi Folks

Hiya Greg,
Peter Comben is running a course on Property Development on the Last Saturday in August.
Have a look at his site: http://www.smartpropertydevelopment.com.au for more info…
Seeya there!!!

Got a couple of beauty free/ cheap downloads that will keep you busy for quite a while!
Firstly, peter combdens free download at
http://www.smartpropertydevelopment.com.au/downloads.htm Brilliant, simply brilliant!
Secondly,
http://www.yourproject.com.au, buy the developers ebook, but forget about the toolbox, as most of it is not really related to development, it is more the esoterics of management. I haven’t subscribed to the $279 whole kit and kaboodle, maybe someone else can comment on this.
Also check out the reno kings website. Less of developing, but their stuff is dirt cheap, quite thought stimulating, and not really found elsewhere at all.

Happy reading!
