I suspect many of the Top 20 were HUGE risk takers (not something you'd be comfortable with) and/or inherited a successful business.
Look at Nathan Tinkler - he took the huge risks, made it big then crashed around his ears.
So I don't recommend emulating them. I think there are things we can...
And Dennis, if this is your first IP, then it will have a lot of learning experiences. It might not be your best IP ever but it's the first step and that is always the hardest.
So congratulations to you, enjoy the ride and onwards and upwards!
Whilst I can't comment on comparable in terms of values etc I don't think the strata is unreasonable for a complex like that.
It would be smaller on an older complex but it looks to to be a pretty nice complex with features like underground car park which all has to be paid for.
