What we’re about
Started in 2012, Property Developer Network runs monthly education and networking events in Sydney, Melbourne & Brisbane to assist you on your Property Development journey. We also run online support groups, formal education & mentoring programs, have access to massive discounts from a ton of suppliers & much much more.
The intent of the monthly events is to bring together the collective experience, thoughts and ideas of like minded individuals to assist each other to achieving our goals in Property Development. Our unique format caters from absolute novices to full time professionals with something to cater for every level of experience.

We have built quite a reputation in helping to kick start peoples Property Development careers, or lift the trajectory for those already on their way. Having seen a number of our members leave their day jobs to transition to full time Property Development, and a hell of a lot more that are well on their way. Having said that, the group is not just for beginners, we have a number of long time developers in the group at the bigger end of town also with everyone able to gain from the collective experience of the group.
Our meetings typically consist 3 distinct section, an Industry Expert, a Real Deal & finally a Masterminding process.
Our Industry Experts are people that you will need in your property development team, with them giving guidance and advise on the relevant topic of the month. In the past we have had Town Planners, Civil Engineers, Property Lawyers, Accountants, Architects, University Lecturers, Project Managers, Experienced Developers, Property Managers, Financial Planners, Valuers, Brisbane City Council, Surveyors, Commercial Lenders & more. These experts love helping those with a thirst for knowledge and an attitude to succeed and we have been blessed with the quality of these speakers who keep lining up wanting to present at our group.
The Real Deals allow you to learn from projects that others have done within our group. Learn from their experience, success' and mistakes before you do it yourself. You get to see warts and all what went right, what went wrong and the profit that was able to be achieved out to the deal. There is nothing better than seeing the real thing to know that you can do the same for yourself.
We typically finish with a Mastermind process, with each person able to seek assistance from the collective knowledge of the group in how to overcome any current obstacles. Sometimes your problem might be as simple as not knowing where to start, or how to learn the development process, whilst other times it might be as complex as a specific problem that you are having withing your current deal. Either way, the group is here to help, with all of us moving forward as a result.
OH - And we always kick on socially after the event for a few beverages so please make sure you have plenty of time to hang around and mingle with your peers.
Welcome aboard, and I hope you enjoy the ride.

Virtual: 2pm (Brisbane time)INTRODUCING THE INDUSTRY EXPERT:
Structure Planning - Efficiencies At Scale (Willowtree Planning – Ben Russell)With the recent update to the South East Queensland Regional Plan - a whole bunch of new opportunities have opened up to do larger projects.
NOW is the time to look at how you can start to SCALE UP and take advantage of the efficiencies in design and layout that come with bigger sites.
Ben Russell from Willowtree Planning is joining us this month. We’ll be taking a deep dive into structure planning and how you can optimise your lot layouts to get efficiencies at scale. PLUS… a bonus of larger sites is you can get significant height and density uplifts.
If you can't amalgamate sites, find out how to work with adjacent neighbours so you can still achieve better outcomes through landowner and infrastructure agreements.
At the Meetup, Ben will identify issues & opportunities through real life examples:
- Recent SEQ Regional Plan and opportunities for large scale development.
- Identifying opportunities in adjoining properties.
- Resolution of servicing issues.
- Negotiating with neighbours and utility providers.
- Height and density uplifts in amalgamating sites.
- Optimisation of lot layouts. How to get maximum yield.Make sure you are in the best position to capitalise on the upcoming opportunities. Come along to this Meetup and find out how you can identify opportunities on neighbouring properties to maximise your yield and profit.
INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:
Duplex (Nikki Liddell)769m2, Low Density Residential – Suburban, Kingston, Logan City Council, Queensland
Property – it can be both a legacy and a liability!
In 1988, Nikki’s father purchased this property in Trust to help secure her financial future.
Which it did for a time, providing her with an ongoing income stream.
BUT the property was in poor condition… eventually being condemned and FALLING DOWN!!!What followed was one delay after another… taking several years to eventually construct a new dwelling on the property:
- inability to get finance delaying the deal for a number of years.
- block size restricted the number of bedrooms permitted.
- didn’t do Before You Dig report - sewerage connection wasn’t on her property.
- delay getting the back neighbour to give permission.
- engineer delayed the draws for months.
- Christmas break, wait for the plumber to return from holidays.
- 4 sewerage plans submitted to council - each one rejected!!!Come along to this Meetup to hear about Council stepping in to negotiate with the neighbours, and learn Nikki’s creative solution to get the number of bedrooms she wanted, setting the property up for future subdivision potential!
Hang around and learn from your peers at our upcoming Meetup!
See you all soon!
