Newjerk? can you try harder than dig up another person's blog.

Nothing beats experience but the Internet can provide mixes of positive & misinformation.
What works for one may not necessarily work for another , so there's nothing wrong with those providing feedback.
The decisions will be up to the op.
One does not learn everything about investing from looking all day long on the Internet .
I have carried out reno's on houses that have already been "renovated" by amateurs and they have made complete pigs ears of the job.
One classic was bedroom light switches that sat on the wall that the door opened onto. You had to go into the room and close the door to turn the light on?
In the UK up until the 80's, people were allowed to fit their own central heating (including the gas boilers). They could go into these big DIY stores and pick up pamphlets explaining how it was done. I had to do an apprenticeship in plumbing and gas fitting and these people were training themselves with a fucking four page leaflet. In the end, people were being killed by carbon monoxide poisoning so they changed the law.
I can understand someone with a background in construction wanting to go out on their own. Much like an accountant for a large firm opening his own practice. But when you need to ask about basic shit on a web forum, maybe you are biting off more than you can chew.
Matthew, 30 Jan 2016, 09:21 AM Your simplistic view is so flawed it is not worth debating. The current oversupply will be swallowed in 12 months. By the time dumb shits like you realise this prices will already be rising.
But that's just modern property investment hey! Besides, cindy has probably watched hours and hours of tv shows revealing the secrets so she feels she has a good grasp on it.
Shadow was hopelessly wrong about the Gold Bull Market. What else is he wrong about?

Most property shows they don't add value, its just inflationary gain. If you really want to add value you need to be clever and you need the right property.
Whenever you have an argument with someone, there comes a moment where you must ask yourself, whatever your political persuasion, 'am I the Nazi?'

That is the thing. You should still make money in a flat market. You need to be able to show a return on your labour otherwise you might as well just buy, hold and sell.
The UK show property ladder was like that. People patting themselves on the back for making money when most of it had been made by market movements.

That's it, you have to make a true business out of it, like a real job. Not just sit on your bum and add a little gyprock to a wall on the weekend.

I am thinking of starting my first project in property development. I am looking for all advices on what I should and should not do in my first stage (draft, town planning, council approval, etc...)
It is much appreciated for me to receive some advice before starting.
Cheers cindy
A development - what do you mean? - 4 units, 6 units, maybe 12 units?
First you need money and lots of it. A minimum of 20% of your hard costs and 100% of the soft costs (architect, plans, engineers reports, legals, cost of a DA, arranging finance, surveyor, marketing.
Then you need a dream,
then you need a plan,
and then you need to execute the plan to perfection,
and even then you will lose all of your money if your timing isn't right, but if your timing is right you will do well.
The easy money is made on picking locations that are attractive to developers and then obtain a DA for "greater use" due to an amalgamation of several lots or just knowing what the local council wants built in the area. If you have that together at the right moment in time it's possible to make excellent money by selling it to a developer who can then launch immediately into a project knowing what they will be able to build because you've done all of the hard work.
I think that if you have to come to a forum like this and ask then you're not ready, but well done for asking the question, we all have to start somewhere.

When you are done with the actual build..
Check workmanship. (I had a great time sorting out a plastering disaster in the kitchen dining area where a plasterer stuffed up.) You are being a constipated pedantic moron about words. And you?
Well you're a moron also.
Blondie, moron, that's a bit harsh !!
It's true I'm certainly not the sharpest tool in the shed but I think the level of response to the OP seems to justify what I wrote.
It appears as though I'm being a dick but if you truly consider the serious nature of the topic the original OP raised, and the manner which it was raised, you also should be shaking your head in disbelief that these ppl are out there.

Don't bribe any politicians.
They are all a bit to hot to be associated with at the moment.
Do you have the agility to put this of until after it all goes back to business as usual?
The small outlay a politician costs is well with the benefits it brings to a project.
WHAT WOULD EDDIE DO? MAAAATE! Share a cot with Milton?

Yes, there's good & bad anywhere , you've got people who do botch up jobs trying to make the quick buck. Theresa a couple of tradies, 1 particular luxury builder a couple of re agents I wouldn't dare do any bizness with.
When you walk into a home that's or sale & it reeks of botch up jobs you want to run out as fast as you can especially if the damage is severe.
There's where some of you guys stuff up in thinking you are gods gift to handy work.
You have plumbing background I see, well I had the privilege to see a stuff up by a plumber with the piping for the ensuite Water supply, the first house I built, I lived in it 1 morning I'm hearing this awful noise from the pipes..turns out the paving had to be dug up & there was a leak going on ... Shouldn't of happened in a brand new home.
The fact is, there's some men who know quality DIY & some who think they do...those who are fussy & take pride in their work are a minority.
There's not many out there who do stuff at a standard.
You could say the same for cars who have had panel beating done, am I able to spot them? Hell yes because I've been taught how to check.

Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
