Description

In this episode, host Nathan unveils a powerful strategy for profiting from property development without ever starting construction. He explores the tactic of securing a development approval on a site and then selling it to capture the significant value uplift. This method serves as a crucial alternate exit strategy and a fantastic way to generate cash flow, allowing developers to fund other projects or their business operations. 


Nathan shares a personal story of how he used a call option to turn a small investment into a six-figure sum on a land subdivision deal. However, he also cautions against worthless approvals and stresses that the deal must be treated with the same rigorous due diligence as if you were building it yourself. 


You'll learn how to structure these deals, identify the perfect buyers like builders or civil contractors, and ensure the numbers work for everyone involved. This is an essential listen for any developer looking to add a clever and highly effective tool to their playbook.
