Australian Property development: How to build for profit


Australian Property Development

Many of Australia’s wealthiest people made their first million dollars through property, so it’s not uncommon for the team at Mortgage port to be asked about investing in this area.  Here are the top questions you need to consider when deciding if property development is the right investment for you.
Why choose property development as an investment? Is there a real demand for property in Australia?
Housing Industry Association (HIA) found that housing affordability across the country is now at a record low and will continue to decline.  It warned that the country’s housing shortage is set to worsen because not enough homes are being built to match demand. 
There is also an increase in development demand predicted for the retail/commercial property sector. Improvements to the domestic economy are expected to drive growth in demand for retail space, with the Australian retail property sector expected to experience a steady level of demand for property space in the coming years.
This means that with a clear need for more properties to be built in Australia, property development is an option worth considering for your investment portfolio.
How do you finance a development property?
The first thing you’ll need is a Australian development loan.  This is a means of gaining finance for a commercial, residential or resort development project.  Development finance covers a range of property projects, including:
  • Commercial offices
  • Retail/shopping centers
  • Industrial complexes
  • Residential development
  • And other developments such as retirement villages or child care centers.
How do you build for profit?
There are five key things any aspiring property developer must consider before starting a project to build profit.

 Research – Get to know the area. It is important to know the current trends for the area, planned and future infrastructure, and also who is likely to buy.
 Negotiating – Almost every cost involved in property development is negotiable and people often don’t understand the fact that negotiation can be what makes or breaks a deal.
 Create a winning situation – Create good relationships with the vendor of the land or property, as well as other team members involved in the sale. Knowing what the vendor requires puts you in a position to negotiate a much better deal.
 Feasibility – Learn how to assess feasibility, including all costs, so you can get an idea what the potential profits can be.
 Team work – Know what kind of professionals you might need and allow them to do their work.
At Mortgage port we pride ourselves on getting to know you to make the whole process easier.  We understand that your needs in an investment loan will be different to everyone else’s, so we aim to provide informed and well-researched loan options that match your individual needs.
