Go big or go home

Large projects are just as easy as small ones

1 large project could make you for life

Just some of the statements I hear from trainers who probably haven’t done any bigger projects.

In reality big is not always best, they come with more risk, and if you are doing one for the first time, you really need to work with an experienced team and potentially also a mentor.

This is the sorry tale of one of these developments that went horribly wrong.

There are so many things that you can learn from this episode, wherever you are with your property investing, the most important thing is to not make the same mistakes.

Commercial property investing is a different game from residential—and knowing the rules can mean the difference between a mediocre deal and a standout investment.

In this episode, Suzi Carter joined me to explore the intricacies of commercial property, sharing expert insights into valuation methods, tenant demand, and refurbishment strategies that work.

Suzi also unpacks the importance of negotiating lease terms, white boxing spaces to appeal to a wider market, and spotting opportunities for converting commercial units to residential use.

You'll learn:

✔️ Why commercial property is valued differently from residential property

✔️ How to assess tenant demand and align with market needs

✔️ Smart strategies for refurbishing commercial spaces without overspending

✔️ Why multi-let units offer lower risk and better returns

✔️ The benefits of white boxing to attract tenants

✔️ How to negotiate lease terms like rent-free periods

✔️ When commercial-to-resi conversions make financial sense

✔️ Why deep market knowledge unlocks better deals

✔️ The importance of having multiple exit strategies

If you're looking to expand your portfolio, reduce risk, and make smarter investment decisions in the commercial space, this episode is packed with value.
