About Property Mastermind

My name is Bob Andersen and I am a member of a select group of developers with over one billion dollars worth of projects under my belt. Yes, that’s $1,000,000,000. I have well over $55 million worth of projects currently in development nationally, ramping up to $80 million early next year, and I am mentoring other developers at the same time.

I have written a book about property development with my son Luke, and am featured in Australian Property Investor Magazine (API) as their resident property development expert. The most successful API article ever published was the ‘Small Development Guide’, 12 episodes sharing some of my property development secrets.

When I started developing property in 1980 I was purely interested in using my development profits as a source of income. So on I went, making profits and paying income tax.

By the late 1980’s I had learned a lot more about property investment. Finally the light came on. What I should have been doing is keeping some of my development product as a long term investment – obtaining it at developer’s cost, holding for growth and deferring the tax.

Even while performing my own small developments I also had a corporate life during the 1980’s and 1990’s when I held both state and national management positions with some of Australia’s largest property development companies. I have developed high-rise apartment buildings, high rise CBD office buildings, shopping centres, retirement complexes, resorts, student accommodation complexes, land subdivisions, spec houses and townhouses.

So over the last two decades I have fine-tuned my systems and models for packaging and developing projects using a ‘develop and hold’ strategy.

These days I operate two businesses:

Positive Property Strategies (PPS) which is an innovative boutique property development business operating at the cutting edge of the industry. PPS partners with high net worth individuals, syndicates and other developers in the development of specific projects.
Property Mastermind where I educate and mentor aspiring developers to create wealth and financial independence through property development and investment (this might be where you found this report).
