Ross Versteegh - Why You Shouldn't Be A Property Developer
You know how people often glamorise property development, making it sound like it's a gold mine?
Well, it kinda is.....but it certainly can ruin you!
This Wednesday, we’ve got Ross Versteegh, a seasoned developer and building designer, joining us to not gloss over how great it is, but why it’s so hard to make real money from developing.
Alongside him is special co host Jeremy Iannuzzelli (thanks, mate!).
We’ll be digging into what goes wrong, why developments can fail, and what you can do to avoid the pitfalls. This session’s about giving you the real talk, no fluff.
Here’s what we’ll cover:
Why property development isn’t for everyone (and why you might want to think twice).
What makes people jump into developing – and why it often doesn’t work out.
Real-life case studies: One successful deal vs. one that flopped.
A checklist of what any investor needs to know before getting into development.
Topics we'll be talking about include:
Reasons Why You Shouldn't Be A Property Developer! This one is bound to be juicy and actionable.
What Attracts People To Property Development.
Unpacking 2 Deals, One That Worked & Why vs A Similar One That Didn't.

Daniel Domingues - How This Investor Built A Passive Income Empire
You know that feeling when you're starting over from scratch? Whether it’s in a new country, a new career, or just trying to rebuild after life throws you a curveball—it can be tough.
But what if I told you that starting from scratch could actually be your biggest advantage? The most successful people I know started with less than $0.
That’s exactly what happened to Daniel Domingues. When he came to Australia, he had no safety net, just pure determination.
And from that, he’s managed to build a multi-million-dollar property portfolio. Now, he’s switching gears, moving towards passive income, and he’s here to share the step-by-step on how he’s done it.
What I love about Dan’s story is that it’s not just about numbers. it’s about mindset. The relentless drive to make it work when failure isn't an option. Whether you’re a migrant or just someone who feels like you’re starting from zero, this session is going to resonate with you.

"You ever feel like your money’s just sitting there, not really doing much?"
Jef and I had that exact chat about 7-8 years ago, it's actually the foundation of this group. We realised our savings weren’t cutting it and with inflation, it felt like we were treading water.
