INTRODUCING THE INDUSTRY EXPERT:
Subdivision Certifiers Pty Ltd (Dean Deghan – Khalaji)
Subdivision Isn’t Just Plans and a DA – It’s a Whole Different Ball Game

So, you’ve found a cracker of a site, crunched your numbers, and got that shiny DA approval in hand. You’re thinking it’s smooth sailing from here, right?

Wrong.

This is the point where most new developers get blindsided because the DA is just the beginning. Now comes the real work. And if you're not prepared, this is where timelines blow out, budgets get smashed, and stress levels skyrocket.

Larger land subdivisions bring a whole new set of challenges: Council requirements that shift mid-game. Secondary approvals you didn’t even know existed. Unexpected infrastructure costs and delays that can eat months and tens of thousands of dollars off your bottom line.

Each Council has its own quirks, every project has its curveballs, and unless you’ve done this before, you won’t know what’s coming until it hits you square between the eyes.

That’s why this month’s Industry Expert session is a must-attend. Dean Dehghan-Khalaji is from Subdivision Certifiers Pty Ltd and he's been deep in the trenches of large land subdivision which means he knows exactly how the game is played. Dean will break down what really happens once the DA is in, what can catch you out, and how to keep your project on track.

You’ll walk away knowing:
• What to check before you even buy the site
• Which DA conditions can quietly kill your profit
• Who to bring onto your team and when
• How to avoid the rookie mistakes that lead to cost and time blowouts

If you're serious about doing larger subdivisions the right way and not getting buried in red tape or caught short by hidden costs, then come learn how the pros plan, dodge the potholes, and keep the money moving.
This isn’t theory. This is boots-on-the-ground advice from someone who’s done it all before.

INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:
1 into 9 Land Subdivision (Ana Zolotukhina)
0.5ha, R2, Lake Macquarie Council, New South Wales

Think Subdivision is Smooth Sailing? Think Again…

On paper, this deal looked like a breeze! Stage 2 of a 9-lot subdivision on a neat block, perfect zoning, good access, solid team already in place. What could possibly go wrong?

Well… welcome to the world of development.

Despite a textbook start and fast turnaround, clear vision, experienced consultants it didn’t take long for the cracks to show. Weather delays pushed timelines out, while pricing disagreements over variations turned once-smooth project management into a game of negotiation and frustration.

This month’s Real Deal speaker Ana takes us behind the scenes of a project that should’ve been simple… but wasn’t. You’ll hear how:
• She navigated the roadblocks
• Managed communication breakdowns
• Kept the deal moving without blowing the budge or her sanity.

If you’re eyeing a subdivision and thinking “how hard can it be?” this is your wake-up call. Learn what to plan for, what to push back on, and why even experienced developers need to stay sharp when the unexpected hits.

Join us for this event and progress your property journey forward in our very unique Mastermind process!

See you all soon!
