ALSO....From B2L to New Build ‘Hollings Homes’–how to make serious money from a major project - Stephen Hollings

Stephen Hollings is the co-owner of Apple Property Partners Ltd. From small beginnings in 2015 the business has grown to own a business centre and development arm as well as B2L properties. One property strategy is to build new houses – they chose to operate at the top end of the market. 

At this month's pin meeting, Stephen will cover their journey from purchase of the bungalow to sale of two five-bedroom four- bathroom executive homes near Harrogate. Each step will be covered from the purchase, planning, demolition and build processes to achieve premium houses that will sell at the top end of the market.  

During Stephen's presentation, you will learn the following: -

1.    How to identify a potential building plot
2.    How to raise finance for a project
3.    The demolition to build process
4.    Real life errors made on the way
5.    True costs of how much it costs to build a house
6.    How to change your mindset to take on a £1M of debt
7.    Have a strong reason why as a motivator
   
You will understand actual costs, the errors they made, the lessons they learnt and their future plans. 

Stephen has a very powerful ‘WHY’ which has helped drive their ambition and business plan. Finally you will learn how to change your mindset to take on a challenge this complicated and large.
