Property Developer Podcast

There are few things more complicated during a property development than the builder going bust during the construction phase of a project. It puts you in a very precarious position and becomes very tricky to navigate. So many issues have to be resolved and the whole process can be very stressful and time consuming. This is exactly what happened with property developer and development financier Dan Holden from Holden Capital. During a construction phase his builder went bust through no fault of his project, and he had to scramble to fix it. I have also had my own issues with a builder facing difficulties during a building phase, so have some experience of what it is like to wonder if the building will ever be finished. Given all the turmoil in the building industry over the past few years, we look at how you can protect yourself for a building disaster and set your project up for construction success. In this episode, Dan and I discuss: The current state of the lending market and what it means for developers How to protect yourself from the chaos caused by a builder collapse What to look out for in a builder’s contract (and when to step in) How to mitigate risk during construction: warning signs, cost escalation, supply chain issues, and more The critical role of risk management in today’s turbulent building industry Property Development Training Want to learn how to manage property development with confidence?

Steve Maroun has an interesting story to share about his journey into property development. Interestingly, Steve started studying law at university while running a property maintenance business. He then realised that law was not for him and he got his builder's license and moved into property development, following in the footsteps of his father. After completing an apartment complex project on the property next door to where he lived, he made the move into luxury, high end projects to capitalise on market opportunities. Keep an ear out for how Steve explains the difference between developing a mid-range product versus a lux finish project. We have also discuss how to navigate through the many challenges that you face as a property developer.

Imagine going from no property development experience to delivering one of the most iconic towers overlooking Central Park in New York City, one of the world’s most expensive real estate markets.  David Juracich did just that. David is originally from Australia before moving overseas to work in banking and finance. He ended up in New York City and was involved with building an amazing slimline residential tower overlooking Central Park along what has become known as Billionaire’s Row. I thought my first project being 20 townhomes was a great start, but this guy did a huge apartment project in Brooklyn for his first development project. His story of how he got involved with property development in New York City is quite amazing, and includes his involvement in an 84 level slimline skyscraper called Steinway Tower overlooking Central Park which apparently cost $2bn to build, yes that’s $2 billion dollars. Can you imagine the capital stack on that project? This is quite an incredible story of a guy stumbling into large scale property developing in one of the world’s most expensive real estate markets.

Bouncing back after adversity is a story we all love, so hearing from a developer who went big only for things to unravel with costly and complex legal challenges is a fascinating insight into always striving toward your life goals. Iwan Sunito from One Global Capital is a seasoned property developer who has enjoyed several decades of success doing some major projects under his former company Crown Group. Crown developed some significant projects over the years to the value of around $4 billion before Iwan and his business partner had a falling out, which has led to a series of legal battles and ongoing challenges, which we discuss during our conversation. Iwan says One Goal Capital has a $1 billion pipeline of work that he is focused on to continue his vision of delivering city shaping projects. This was a really interesting chat for me because way back when I started the podcast and I was thinking about people I would like to have on the show Iwan was on the list so it was great to finally be able to sit down and speak with him, particularly in light of the challenges he is facing. I’m sure you will enjoy listing to Iwan’s story and appreciate some of the lessons he shares.
