Ep 23: The Dangers of Property Developing in Cheaper Areas – with Bob Andersen

Property developing in cheaper areas may sound like the best way to extend your budget, but it’s actually far more dangerous!

Discover what makes buying in these areas a huge risk as Bob Andersen and I talk about

  1. Fixed and variable costs,
  2. If people can actually develop property in cheaper areas (and how they try to do so)
