69 – Pursuing the build to rent property development model

The build to rent model is getting a lot of attention across Australia as the cost of buying property keeps escalating. It seems to offer a lot of benefits but how does it work and what challenges does it present? Let's find out... Hello and welcome to episode 69 of the show, I've been enjoying a bit more social freedom as we slowly ease up the covid lockdown across Australia. I've also been very busy for the past few weeks, with lots going on with my projects. We've started demolition on one of them which is exciting, I posted a short video on the show's Insta and Facebook pages if you want to check out how it's going. After years of battling away it has been nice to see some action on site and start seeing the dream become a reality. Still a bit of work to do to get the builder on site for the initial site works so I've been busy sorting out some loose ends to ensure we don't have any delays. It will be interesting to see what happens with the property market over the next 6 to 12 months with lots of speculation around large stimulus measures for the industry, will be exciting if some of the initiatives get off the ground.
