    I've just completed and sold my 3x lot subdivision JV in under 12 months. The ungeared margin on development is close to 40% - this is almost double an acceptable development return and without flexing too hard - pretty good in the Perth market.
    Now instead of telling you how easy it is to be a property developer, and then glossing over the details followed by an upsell on a course, I am going to go through the property development basics, which includes:
    * How I found the development site
    * What the property development feasibility looked like at the start
    * Every developer knows numbers do change, so I'll cover the final numbers
    * How I structured the joint venture for development financing.
    * Most importantly, the mistakes that I learnt from
    Finding a site is not easy, and it first starts with sourcing the development. I like to look for developments that other property developers or selling agents overlook. This is through seeking out exceptions to the planning rules.
    Once identified this site in Perth, Western Australia stood out because it had a wide frontage, little-to-nil value in the house, the topography and location of the development site minimise site works, and the seller was keen to sell the property.
    The initial plans were to build 4x villas, but this changed into 3x street-front green titles lots. Over the term of the project, I was able to revise up the development financials, despite the tough market conditions in Bassendean, Australia.
    The joint venture structure for the property development deal was 60/40 in favour of my funder. This got me across the line on financing the property development.
    In being a 'How to Be a Property Developer', I have learnt a range of mistakes myself. On this project, it included the joint venture as I left money on the table, public open space contributions by the council and retention of trees on the development site.

    Thanks so much for making this video, plus for having the integrity to want to share your experience without the notion of wanting to profit from those of us wanting to learn. Looking forward to learning more as I go though my PD journey as I take it from a side hustle to my income replacement and beyond. 👍🏻

    Do you think a struggling market makes it easier or harder to achieve higher returns of developments compared to a booming market?

      It can, but don't confuse building margin with development margin. Also, banks make funding more tricky...

    Awesome video again Kent! How much would you charge a client to find them a development site as a buyers agent? Also, as a rough figure, how much GST was payable in this case study? Keep this content coming Kent loving it!

    • @KentCliffe
      @KentCliffe  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Great to hear you love the content. These videos do take a LOT of work, so get the word out because more people can gain detailed info.
      I've retired from being a fee-for-service buyers agent, as my focus is on development/JV (with the right people). Most buyers agents charge anywhere from $15k - $40k to source profitable development sites. To be honest, this is not enough as genuinely GOOD DEALS are as rare as hen's teeth in Perth. I'm happy to point you in the direction of good operators in each state - just flick me a message on LinkedIn.
      GST was in the feasibility - it would be about $35k less credits on the Margin Scheme.

    Thanks, very nice case study! Will banks loan based on the land value for such short term projects or don't they bother? Anything around 75% ltv would be great. Giving up 15% apr interest or profit share to a (capital) partner is eating into your profits heavily

      No, I didn't delete your comment. All the effort I put in explaining an alternative is lost. Other TH-camrs can report comments, and censorship is something I don't support. This is regardless of how different my opinion is to yours. In fact, I see common ground with unsustainable population growth being the root problem.
