INTRODUCING THE INDUSTRY EXPERT:
Could Prefab Change Your Next Development? 5North (Ross Stonard)

Your property development looks profitable. But what happens when construction costs blow out and delays start eating into your profits?

You’ve found the site. The numbers stack up. But before you finalise your plans, have you considered whether prefabrication could be a smarter way to build?

The construction method you choose early in the planning stage can have a major impact on your project’s feasibility, design, costs and timeline. Leave it too late, and you could miss opportunities to build more efficiently, reduce on-site work and avoid unnecessary delays.

Many novice property developers assume traditional building methods are simply part of the process. But what if there was a smarter way to build? What if you could move more of the construction process off-site, reduce the work required on-site and improve the efficiency of your project?

The way you build can have a significant impact on your construction timeline, costs and overall feasibility. And if you're only considering traditional building methods, could you be overlooking an opportunity to do things differently?

So, could prefabrication change the way you approach your next development? And can you take advantage of modern manufacturing without sacrificing design flexibility?

At our next Property Developer Network Meetup, Ross Stonard from 5North will explore how innovative prefabrication and advanced manufacturing are changing the way homes are built.

You’ll gain insights into:
· How prefabricated building components can help reduce construction time and improve efficiency
· How wall, floor and ceiling systems are manufactured in a controlled factory environment
· How robotics and precision manufacturing can improve consistency and quality
· How prefabrication can work with existing designs and architectural plans, rather than limiting your design options
· How moving more construction off-site can reduce on-site activity and help streamline the building process
· What novice property developers should consider when exploring alternative construction methods for their next project

Most importantly, you'll discover how a different approach to construction could help you build more efficiently, reduce reliance on traditional on-site processes and rethink what's possible for your next development.

Because successful property development isn't just about finding the right site. It's about finding smarter ways to deliver the project, manage construction and protect your bottom line.

INTRODUCING THE REAL DEAL:
1 into 3 Subdivision (Rebecca & Adam Tanton)
1870 m2, South Australia

Imagine buying a property in Rural South Australia, securing a great purchase price and seeing an opportunity to create a highly profitable development.

The plan? Buy well, get the project approved, bring together a quality team of tradies, complete the works and sell at the right time. Sounds straightforward, right?

But property development doesn’t always go exactly to plan!

What should have been a relatively straightforward process turned into a test of patience and resilience. Council delays, lost RFI submissions through SAPPA, unexpected approval hurdles and torrential rain during earthworks all added complications along the way.

And just when things couldn't get any more interesting, a fall through a veranda roof provided a rather unexpected reminder that development comes with risks you don't always see coming!

So, what went wrong? What went right? How did they navigate the setbacks, and what would they do differently next time?

At our next Property Developer Network Meetup, Rebecca & Adam Tanton will share their Real Deal, taking you behind the scenes of their Strathalbyn project, the decisions, challenges, unexpected setbacks and lessons learned along the way.

You'll discover:
• Why buying well is one of the most important decisions you can make when setting up a development for success
• How timing the market can make a significant difference to your final result
• The importance of assembling a reliable team of quality trades
• How council delays and lost RFI submissions through SAPPA can derail your project timeline
• The unexpected challenges that can arise during earthworks and construction
• Why having the right strategy and being prepared to adapt is critical when things don't go to plan
• How they managed to sell at the peak of the market and break the previous Strathalbyn record for land price per square metre

Because successful property development isn't just about buying well and selling at the right time. It's about navigating the setbacks, making smart decisions and learning from the challenges along the way.
