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.

𝘉𝘶𝘴𝘩𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘖𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘌𝘹𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥! (𝘑𝘶𝘭𝘪𝘦 𝘉𝘰𝘸𝘺𝘦𝘳 & 𝘉𝘦𝘯 𝘕𝘰𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘶𝘴 - 𝘕𝘰𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘶𝘴 𝘓𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘚𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘺𝘰𝘳𝘴)Think your project’s safe from bushfire regs? Think again.
If your site falls within a Bushfire Prone Area (BPA) and let’s face it, most rural and fringe areas in Victoria do then you’re already on the hook for extra planning requirements. But if you’re in a Bushfire Management Overlay (BMO), the rules get even tougher. We’re talking stricter controls, more documentation, and higher construction costs.
Miss a step on your BAL (Bushfire Attack Level) assessment, submit the wrong bushfire plan, or fail to factor in the surrounding hazard landscape, and your permit could get knocked back, sending your timelines and budget up in smoke.
This month, we will be joined by 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗼𝘄𝘆𝗲𝗿 and 𝗕𝗲𝗻 𝗡𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘂𝘀, from 𝗡𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘂𝘀 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗿𝘀, who offer land development services are a leading authority in bushfire planning in Victoria. With their bushfire accreditation and experience, they will provide clear guidance on the requirements for compliance, covering site inspections, hazard assessments, BAL certificates, and the preparation of comprehensive Bushfire Management Plans that fulfill all relevant planning criteria.
Whether you’re doing a simple subdivision or a multi-dwelling project, you’ll learn how to:· Identify if your site triggers BPA or BMO requirements
· Understand the key documents you need for council approval
· Get the right BAL rating without over-engineering your build
· Avoid costly delays and planning refusals
· Stay compliant and keep your project movingDon’t let bushfire overlays burn your bottom line. Come along and find out how to build smarter, stay compliant, and reduce your risk all without the overwhelm.
INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:

Ever dreamt of delivering a development that turns heads, sells itself, and leaves a legacy only to be bogged down by cost blowouts, design compromises, or the never-ending battle between innovation and practicality? The truth is that too many projects end up being just another block of bricks in a crowded market. They tick the boxes but fail to inspire, under-deliver for buyers, and miss the chance to create something truly remarkable.
That’s where 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗿𝗮 stands apart. Starting his career as a Registered Structural and Civil Engineer, Shane took his technical expertise and applied it to property development with one clear mission: transform spaces in ways that not only meet the demands of modern living but also leave a positive mark on the communities they serve. His developments balance smart design, sustainable practices, and commercial viability proving that profitability and purpose can go hand-in-hand.
Through meticulous attention to detail, strategic planning, and a deep understanding of how construction and design work together, Shane has delivered projects that are both market successes and community assets. At this month’s Property Developer Network Meetup, he’ll take you behind the curtain on his journey sharing the strategies, insights, and hard-won lessons that have shaped his success.
If you want to elevate your developments beyond the ordinary, learn how to build with precision and vision, and walk away with practical takeaways you can apply to your next project, this is one session you can’t afford to miss.
This is your chance to talk property with other enthusiasts!
See you all soon!
