    Hello everyone,

    We have aquired IPs and done some small reno jobs and then rented out. I am now ready to bigger reno project say on a block of units but not sure on what are the steps/ skills/licences required to become a successful property developer?
    Also has any one heard of owners builder licence? Is that useful to become a property developer?

    Appreciate the help,

    Rich Mum

    Depending on which State you are in i dont beleive you will be able to register as an "Owner Builder" in order to renovate a block of units.

    More importantly have you considered how you will finance it?

    Property development loans are a lot more rigorous in assessment than the mum or dad reno. You will probably need around 30% of hard costs and depending on the size of the project may even a percentage of pre-sales.
