    EP 157: How You Can Finance A Property Development

    Finance for property development can be a complex and confusing topic for many property developers or investors. It’s important to understand the differences between property developing and property investing when it comes to finance. There is one common question that property investors often have: how can they finance a property development when they have limited serviceability but sufficient equity?

They may be familiar with obtaining loans for their primary residence or investment properties, where serviceability is a key factor in determining loan approval. Serviceability refers to the borrower's ability to repay the loan, typically demonstrated through income verification and financial statements.
     
    In this week’s episode, Hilary and Bob discuss how you can finance a property development. They highlight the common confusion between property developing and property investing when it comes to finance. They also share insights and tips to help property investors navigate the complexities of financing property development successfully.

    EP 155: Using Residential Finance For Property Development

    EP 155: Using Residential Finance For Property Development

    Property development is a lucrative business that can bring in substantial profits for those who are willing to take the risk and put in the work. However, many people often delay their property development opportunities due to misconceptions about financing options.
     
    One of the main reasons why people delay property development opportunities is due to a lack of understanding about financing options. Many individuals believe that commercial finance is the only option for property development and are deterred by the perceived high interest rates associated with it. However residential finance can also be used for property development and can offer competitive interest rates that make it a viable option for financing projects.
     
    In this week’s episode, Hilary and Bob talk about using residential finance for property development. They highlighted the importance of understanding the options available, such as commercial finance, and the potential pitfalls of relying solely on residential finance. Bob emphasized the significance of making informed decisions and taking action towards achieving goals, especially in the realm of property development. They also touched on the impact of interest rates and line fees in commercial loans, stressing the need for proper financial planning and advice. So join us in our latest episode and discover the secrets of using residential finance for property development!

    EP 154: The Future Of Property Development

    Scarcity in property development is a significant issue that is currently affecting the housing market. The demand for dwellings, whether it be houses, apartments, or land for building, is far exceeding the supply. This scarcity is creating challenges for property developers, both experienced and new, as they navigate the competitive and rapidly changing landscape of the real estate market.
     
    One of the key aspects of property development is creating dwellings for people to live in. Whether it is through renovating existing properties, subdividing land, or building new homes, property developers play a crucial role in meeting the housing needs of the population. However, with the national shortage of dwellings, developers are facing increasing pressure to deliver quality housing in a timely manner.
     
    In this week’s episode, Hilary and Bob discuss the future of property development. They reflect on what's working, what's not, and how to prepare for the future. They touch on the importance of due diligence, sharing a personal incident where neglecting this led to significant fines. Despite the setbacks, they emphasize the value of thorough research in property development. So if you’re a property developer looking to stay ahead of the game, you won’t want to miss this week’s episode!
