Today I thought I’d share a little about my own personal property investing journey in the hope that it may be of interest or maybe if I’m lucky, encourage you to move forward on your own journey if you haven’t already.

If you are just starting out in property development and haven’t yet found a builder, a good way to get a pretty good idea of what your construction costs may be is to engage a quantity surveyor (QS) to work with you in the early design stages of your project. 

If I told you that a regional NSW city - only a 2 hour drive from Sydney - has predicted population growth of 42% over the next 20 years, would you believe me? 

Watching The Block recently, I chuckled as the site foreman Keith was hounding the contestants for their plans so he could start on the plumbing and other rough ins yet they’d barely started on the ground floor room renovation. They were complaining they barely had time to work out the day’s challenge let alone plan the upper floors.  It hit a chord as I’d been discussing the same thing with our builder today on one of Property Bloom’s house renos.
