Who’s teaching this

You are learning from people who have actually built the projects, not theorists. Bob Andersen has more than 40 years in property development, across high-rise, subdivisions, splitters and small developments. Hilary Saxton brings 20-plus renovation projects, investor relations, and the mindset and accountability side that keeps people moving.

You do not need more information.
You need answers.

Across five parts, Bob and Hilary take you through the real steps of running a property development, the same approach they use on their own projects. Finish each part to unlock the next.

  • The skills you already have that transfer to development
  • Your risk profile and financial position
  • How equity, finance and joint ventures fit in

Client success stories

Discover and learn from their amazing journeys

“I took exactly what his knowledge told me to do, and in the past 12 months I’ve got five development projects on the go. I’m living proof that his formulas and his methods work. Do yourself an absolute favour, push through the fear and just do it, you’ll never, ever look back. We were so impressed with the quality of the education that we also signed up to become Bob’s mentoring students.”Greg Bohlsen
“We are now developing property for profit without ever having owned property prior to this. Now that’s what you call accelerated learning!”Nuwan Fernando
“My latest project is a townhouse project and I’ve currently got another five underway. I couldn’t have done it without Bob’s help. It’s enabled me to leave my full-time job and do this full-time, and I absolutely love it.”
“When I first started looking at property development it was very overwhelming. What Bob does is take the complex and make it really simple. The information is fabulous, the people are approachable, and the value for money is brilliant.”
“The biggest takeaway was the people I met and the relationships I formed, plus the knowledge I’ve gained. I’m glad I came, it’s given me extra confidence.”
