Projects in Property: The business of residential property development

Projects in Property: The business of residential property development

£20.00

For today's property investor or developer, building new houses can be immensely rewarding given the huge demand from families seeking a new home. But developers must get a proper grip on the fundamentals of the business to make sure projects are profitable. 

Projects in Property: The Business of Residential Property Development provides practical guidance on how to invest in and manage residential uilding projects successfully and profitably. The author, Denis Minns, has over 40 years of experience from working both for large corporations and for his own successful business. His book distils this wisdom to lead the reader through the whole range of considerations a property developer or investor needs to tackle: from finding the right plot and the options for financing the project to working with professionals and marketing the finished development. Along the way he explains the jargon and provides hints on what the planners might look for. An invaluable library of template documents brings his guidance to life, helping you embark on a project with the necessary tools close at hand. 

Although primarily aimed at the smaller developer, the book is a trove of invaluable advice for everyone involved in residential property development, novice or experienced, which will help save time, money and hassle.
