Property Development Course

[Kabutar]

Im very keen to get started in property development, but I feel that a course would go a long way in helping me acquire the foundations of property development. Does anyone know a course that they can recommend ??

Im also keen to find any good books on the subject of property development?

Please HELP !!!!

Search the forum or internet for:

1. Michael Yardney
2. Peter Comben
3. Martin Ayles

They do seminars/courses I believe, though I have not been.

or look up michael whyte on the forum here and have a chat - he is currently doing a small development in sydney and, i'm sure, would be more than willing to share ... he has a reputation of being able to talk under wet cement

Hi Kabutar,

Welcome to the forum! You'll probably find more info here than you would in any course, but .......My suggestion would be to check out a Michael Yardney seminar (or someone of similar status in your area) - the initial 1/2 -1 day seminar (which is about $50-$75) I have always found very informative and motivational, although have never gone further than that, but he does offer 3-day courses - see if you like his views and strategies and then possibly proceed?

Cheers,
Jen

Since you are talking about me - may I please add something

Yes I do one day seminars and there is one last round in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney in November - details are here......Take Advantage of the Property Markets in 2007

While I discuss some of the benefits of getting involved in property development I don't want people coming along thinking they are going to learn how to become a property developer in one day and for $79. But there are lots of other great reasons to come along.

My 3 day "Real World"real estate workshop is Australia's leading property development workshop, but we only hold it once a year. This is usually in June, but this year it will be later in the year because we are putting together a "high end" 4 day Wealth Retreatin April with some very interesting people.. More news about this later this month

Hi Kabutar,
property development is a very interesting field and it requires quite a bit of education.

As Michael Y says, you won't get all the knowledge/experience in 1 day seminar.

Many of my clients have been to Michael's 3 day workshops and are very happy with the results they have achieved.

Have a great Sunday.

Thanks to all that have replied. I have found a 4 day course that is run by the Urban Development Institute of Australia, called the Property Development Foundations course.

Has anyone attended this in 2006 ? I'm planning on enrolling in 2007 and would love to hear from someone who has, to gauge their experience.

Many Thanks,

Kabutar

I haven't done any sort of course in development, but I do know that UDIA is a very well respected body within the industry, so I'd say that you couldn't go too far wrong doing a course with them...
