INTRODUCING THE INDUSTRY EXPERT:
WA Planning 101 for Property Developers! Statewest planning (Jason Hunt)
You find a site. The zoning works. The numbers stack up. You're ready to move forward.
Then someone mentions local planning policies, regional planning schemes, state planning requirements, council preferences, and development approval pathways... and suddenly you're wondering whether you've missed something that could derail the entire project.
The reality is that Western Australia's planning system is unlike anywhere else in Australia. Subdivisions are assessed at the state level, while development applications may be determined by either state or local government or even be exempt. Understanding how these systems intersect is critical if you want to avoid costly mistakes and maximise your chances of approval.
That's exactly why you need to hear from Jason Hunt from Statewest Planning.
Jason will deliver a practical Planning 101 session designed specifically for property developers, breaking down how the WA planning system really works and what every small-to-medium developer needs to know before buying their next site.
Jason will cover:
• How the WA state and local planning systems interact
• The difference between regional and local planning schemes
• How local planning policies influence development outcomes
• Why understanding your chosen council is critical to success
• Common planning pitfalls that catch developers out
• How to reduce risk and improve approval outcomes
This is practical, real-world knowledge that can help you make smarter site acquisitions, avoid costly planning surprises, and navigate the WA development landscape with confidence.
If you're serious about property development in Western Australia, don't miss this session.
INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:
1 Into 2 Subdivision (Anthony Hunt)
890m2, R20/40, Rivervale, Western Australia
Most developers love talking about their wins.
The projects that ran smoothly. The approvals that came through on time. The profits that exceeded expectations.
But what about the deals that didn't go to plan?
The reality is that property development is full of unexpected twists. Councils change their requirements. Timeframes blow out. Strategies that looked perfect at the start suddenly need to be completely reworked. And it's often these projects that teach the most valuable lessons.
That's exactly what Anthony Hunt will be sharing in this month's Real Deal presentation.
Anthony will walk us through his 1 into 2 subdivision project and provide an honest look at the challenges he faced along the way.
This is a real-world case study that many developers will relate to.
Anthony will share:
• The original strategy and feasibility
• The council challenges encountered during the project
• How timeframes blew out and impacted the deal
• The strategy changes required along the way
• The lessons learned from the mistakes made
• What he would do differently if starting again
Sometimes the best education comes from understanding what went wrong and how to avoid making the same mistakes yourself.
If you're a developer looking to shorten your learning curve and avoid costly errors on your next project, this is a Real Deal you won't want to miss.
Push your journey forward and come in-person to network with like-minded Developers!
See you all soon!
