Nik Bulum is a Canberra based property developer who is delivering some amazing projects that are helping to regenerate some run down parts of the city. Nik has a slightly different pathway into developing, and this background is what helps drive his approach to his projects. In this conversation we cover how design led projects can generate media interest and attract buyers, where you can look to find inspiration for your projects and how Nik tries to stand out from the crowd. A couple of the projects we discussed have since been completed so check out Nik’s Facebook or Instagram feeds to have a look at them, I think they look amazing… Now the sound quality of this interview is not as high as a I usually like, as we had some technical issues, however stick with it as Nik shares some absolute gold with us. Lessons for real estate developers I found my conversation with Nik really inspiring because here is a guy following his heart and delivering some really amazing projects. He’s being driven not solely by commercial imperatives but a desire to create something special and leave a design legacy in the area, and I really admire that. Here are three points I took away from our chat: 1. Inspiration is a great pathway to follow Staying inspired will keep you growing and keep the fire burning. By following your love and inspiration, you will remain fired up and interested and then I think it is inevitable that you will leave a mark on the design fabric of an area Follow your heart and do what you love, love what you do and you will deliver projects that will inspire you and leave a legacy you can be proud of. And what can be more fun that working on an inspirational project? 2. Interesting design is a way to attract buyers As Nik said, he attracted international media interest because his buildings were different and interesting. If you can stand out from the crowd, you will generate buyer interest, but be aware that you will also attract detractors and critics. Having an interesting design is a great way to influence and shape the character of an area, and you can find ideas in art, fashion, graphic design, music and much more. And why not put a piece of art in the landscape? 3. Find a good story for your project Having a link to the local area or the history of the site is a great way to develop a emotional connection to your project. I’ve mentioned this a few times before, but human’s love good stories. Nik offered some suggestions on how you can create a story for your project including looking at the history, music, artists, and cultural icons can all inspire a story and a project If you enjoyed that chat, you may like to revisit a couple of past episodes with property developers who are doing great things. There was episode 18 with Brendon Ansell, who has since taken his company public, and episode 27 with Canadian developer Dan Barona. And you can see all my latest property development photos and videos on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/property_developer_podcast/) Until next may all your projects leave you feeling inspired and leave a legacy you can be proud of… Links Bulum Group - https://www.facebook.com/Bulum-Group-1572596402999330/

36 – How property development helped create independent wealth

Creating independent wealth is a great way to ensure your financial security is taken care of, and property development can be great way to leverage your capital, however how do you attain financial wealth? In this episode you will find out how property developer, investor and educator Michael Yardney has done it. Michael, is one of Australia’s best known property commentators and investment adviser, he has written eight books on property investing and wealth creation, and publishes a lot of content about property investing. You can find out more about him at michaelyardney.com or Metropole.com.au Although Michael is well known for property investment advice, it was through property developing that he took his wealth and business to the next level, and he is still an active developer today, and also provides a developing service for his clients. In this discussion we talk about how Michael got into developing, what has changed in property over the decades, and what he has learnt along the way. It was exciting to hear how Michael has grown and diversified his property business over the years and decades. There was plenty of wisdom shared in that discussion, and here are a couple of things that stood out for me… Tips for Real Estate Developers 1. Can you hold onto any of your stock to help grow your asset base? As Michael said, he’s seen many developers go bust without any assets to show for all their years of work, and I know it is challenging to hold stock when developing is so cash intensive, but how often do we see the value of our finished stock jump up significantly over the short, medium and long term? I understand where Michael is coming from, and building up a foundation of solid assets that can support you later in life is certainly something worth considering… 2. Are you taking steps to continually educate yourself? I liked how Michael said mentors don’t need to be people you meet face to face. You can find mentors in books, or via blogs, or in groups. Continually educating yourself is a great way to keep your brain active, learn new techniques and stay ahead of the pack. So I’d encourage you to find some ways to keep evolving and learning. 3. Have you considered your long term future? Leading on from the point abut holding stock, it is helpful to consider what you want your life to be like in the longer term, and then having a plan to get there. It is wise to have a destination in mind and then you can begin working towards it. Developing and creating value for 15,20,30 years and then going bust on a project which leaves you with nothing would be heartbreaking, so give some consideration to putting away 10 percent of your profits on each project into a super fund or other long term investment, to provide a cushion for your retirement. If you enjoyed hearing about Michael’s journey through property developing, you might like to go back to some past interviews with other developers, like New Zealand based developer Graeme Fan who I spoke with in episode 29, or Brendon Ansell who this year took his developing company public, I chat with him in episode 18.

Understanding when and how to accelerate your property developing business can be the difference between going to the next level or going bust. So I speak with Brendon Ansell from Velocity Property Group about how and when he accelerated his property development business. I think you will enjoy some of the insights that Brendon will share with you. Brendon is doing some great developments and is really ramping up his business, which is exciting to see. Brendon moved from South Africa to Brisbane in the 90s and started out with $50 in his pocket. Today his business is running around $130million in projects. That’s some change! During our conversation we talk about how you go from doing a splitter block to running multiple projects, how and when you can accelerate your developing enterprise, and how to create a strong foundation for your future business. We also touch on what to do when you have three staff members all with the same name. Lessons for Property Developers What a great story about a guy landing in a new country and really making a go of it. I really enjoyed speaking with Brendon, I took a lot away from our chat. 1. Give yourself five years to understand and learn your property developing business I think the biggest idea that stuck out for me was this notion of giving yourself five years to understand and learn your business. It is in these early years that you can really lay the foundation for a strong, sustainable business by understanding what you do best and how to do it better. Once you have that foundation set then really look to accelerate your activities from years 5-10. I think this is really solid advice, as often people can be undone by trying to do too much too soon and then falling over. 2. Find a mentor to help expand your real estate development skills The second thing that stuck out for me was around finding a mentor. The right mentor can give you perspective and ideas that can help you grow and learn. So find someone who has achieved what you would like to do and emulate them. They can help you see beyond problems or suggest ways to solve issues. Brendon suggested joining an industry group to network with people and that may be a way for you to find someone suitable. 3. Stay focused on the type of property developments you want to specialise in The third and final point I took from my conversation with Brendon is to be focused on the type of developments you want to do. Don’t get seduced by bigger projects if you have a model that is working for you, especially in buoyant markets. It is easy to be dazzled by the prospect of greater profits but don’t come undone by chasing something that you are not ready for. As I remember hearing about financial investment, earn the right to invest in riskier projects. Develop up a plan for what you want to do and stay focused on achieving it, most successful people say they succeeded by being persistent.
