Sydney Money Club — FIRE, Saving, Investing & Everything Money

**Sydney Money Club — FIRE, Saving, Investing & Everything Money** One of our members suggested we have a session on the FIRE movement — Financial Independence, Retire Early — so let’s give it a go. We’ll spend some time talking about FIRE: what it is, whether it’s realistic, saving rates, investing and the trade-offs involved. Then we’ll open it up into a completely free-form money discussion — what are you saving for, how are you saving, what are you investing in, what do you want to understand better? We also have a couple of stocks we are going to talk about as requested by members. If you have any you're curious about, please put them in the event chat. **No assumed knowledge whatsoever.** Beginners are very welcome. I work as a share analyst, so I’m very happy to talk about shares and investing all day long, but this isn’t intended to be a lecture. Bring whatever money questions or subjects interest you and we’ll see where the conversation goes. We’ll keep this one small — around 5–10 people — and grab a table at the pub for a relaxed chat over drinks and nibbles.

Build Smarter: The Kit of Parts Way (Green Timber Technology) + Duplex (Atul)

**\*\*\*RSVP PROCESS - CRITICAL INFO\*\*\*** Please be aware, we don't use the Meetup website to take RSVPs, so you will need to register on this link to lock in your place (bookings essential) - [https://propdev.info/uMvs](https://propdev.info/uMvs) We run events most weekends around Australia so you can attend either physically in your local area, or live-stream to any event around the country. **In-Person:** 1:30pm (Sydney time) to 'Mingle With The Expert' **Virtual:** 2pm (Sydney time) **INTRODUCING THE INDUSTRY EXPERT:** *How Your Next Build Could Be Much Faster! Green Timber Tech (Jeremy Foord)* Is Traditional Construction Costing You Profit? You’ve got the site. The numbers stack. You get your approvals and you’re ready to build… Then construction starts. Weeks turn into months. And every extra day on site means more interest, holding costs and pressure on your development margin. For mum and dad developers, time isn’t just a construction issue… it’s a profitability issue. Here’s the truth: The longer it takes to build, the longer your money is tied up. But what if there was a smarter way to get projects built faster? That’s why you need to hear from Jeremy Foord from Green Timber Tech. In this session, you’ll discover: • What Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) actually are • How MMC differs from conventional construction • Green Timber Tech’s real-world experience using MMC • The potential benefits of faster construction for developer • The lessons learned from delivering projects using MMC • Common mistakes developers make when choosing a construction method And most importantly… How understanding MMC could help you shorten build times, reduce financing costs and get your development delivered sooner. Don’t miss this session! It could change the way you think about building your next development. **INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:** 𝘋𝘶𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘹 (𝘈𝘵𝘶𝘭 𝘚𝘢𝘹𝘦𝘯𝘢) 𝟧𝟧𝟨𝘮𝟤, 𝘙𝟣, 𝘎𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘯 𝘏𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴 𝘔𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥, 𝘕𝘦𝘸 𝘚𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘩 𝘞𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘴 Most mum and dad developers think a duplex is a simple development. Buy the land. Get the DA. Build two homes. Sell them. It’s not always that simple. The real pressure hits when strata subdivision takes longer than expected, when an $80,000 variation lands on a supposedly fixed-price building contract, and when you have to sell quickly and potentially leave money on the table. That’s when the lessons really begin. At our next Property Developer Network Meetup, Real Deal presenter 𝗔𝘁𝘂𝗹 𝗦𝗮𝘅𝗲𝗻𝗮 shares a duplex project that tested him on construction, timeframes and the final sale. What went well? Buying directly from the developer. Getting DA approval in just four months. Completing construction in nine months. And building a strong relationship with his builder. What didn’t? Strata delays, an unexpected $80,000 variation and having to sell the first unit in a hurry. This isn’t theory. It’s real-world development, the part most people don’t talk about. The stuff you don’t see on social media. If you’re a mum and dad developer who wants to: · Avoid costly construction surprises · Understand the risks behind fixed-price contracts · Better manage timeframes and the sales process · And learn from the lessons of a real development Then you need to hear Atul’s story. Because in property development, every deal teaches you something. And the lessons from this one could help you on your next. ***Join us for this event and progress your property journey forward in our very unique Mastermind process!*** See you all soon!
