INTRODUCING THE INDUSTRY EXPERT:
Construction cost Savings..... China? (Property Developer Network – Rob Flux)

Sick of skyrocketing build costs and trades that don’t show up?

You’re not alone. With margins getting tighter and timelines blowing out, many developers are starting to feel the squeeze and wondering if there’s a smarter way to build.

Well, what if the solution isn’t here… but over in China?

Fresh off the plane from the Canton Fair, Rob Flux has been deep in the trenches investigating cutting-edge materials, prefab tech, and scalable build solutions that could seriously disrupt how we develop property in Australia. And at this month’s meetup, he’s sharing everything.
Get ready for a behind-the-scenes look at what’s coming out of the world’s biggest trade expo and how savvy developers can tap into global supply chains to cut costs, speed up builds, and stay ahead of the game.

At this month’s meetup Rob will Share:

What prefab housing really looks like in 2025 and how to spot the good from the gimmicks

Innovative materials you’ve never heard of but should absolutely know about

Real-world supplier connections that Rob vetted on the ground

If you're ready to think outside the box and start building smarter, this is a session you won't want to miss!

INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:
1 into 3 Townhouses (Mark Shearwood)

807m2,GR1, Nhill, Hindmarsh Shire Council, Victoria

Ever Had a Deal Go Off the Rails?

Maybe it was council red tape...

Maybe it was a nightmare neighbour...

Or maybe everything looked like it was going to plan until it wasn’t.
At this month’s Property Developer Network Meetup, we're bringing in a Real Deal Speaker Mark Shearwood who’s been to hell and back and lived to tell the tale. This is the kind of story most people keep quiet about… but he’s laying it all on the table, so you don’t make the same mistakes.

Hear from Mark what started out as a straightforward project but turned into an absolute nightmare and how he overcome the challenges thrown at him:

– Issues with council from day one
– A neighbour dispute that got ugly
– Council overstepping their legal powers
– A full-blown court case just to get things moving again
– The mindset that kept him in the game
– The legal strategies that turned the tide

A 2.5-year delay that would have crippled most developers. But not this one. Instead of walking away or wearing the loss, he took the fight to council, won in court, and came out the other side with an even stronger position. In fact, he’s now running 18 projects in the same area, armed with the hard-won experience that only comes from living through the pain.

Let’s face it property development isn’t always pretty. But it’s the tough lessons that separate the hobbyists from the professionals.

If you’re serious about this game, you can’t afford to miss this meetup.
Come along, take notes, and be ready to ask questions because this one’s going to be raw, real, and full of gold.

This is your chance to talk property with other enthusiasts!

See you all soon!
