Our SEPDC Mastermind Session this month was packed with valuable insights, project showcases, and planning updates.
➡️ We started with Adrian Gibbs of CM3 Consultancy Ltd, who manages development projects on behalf of clients, as an alternative to the main contractor procurement route. He explained the pros and cons of this way of working, as well as the potential cost savings.
➡️ We also had a great Show & Tell from Joe Eden of Nova Homes, offering insights into a piece of tech that he uses in his business - Aprao - a cloud based software that helps appraise potential developments projects speedily.
👉 Some of the key benefits:
🗸 Comparing different offers from development lenders.
🗸 Adding income producing assets into the development appraisal.
🗸 Sensitivity analysis , showing how build costs and and end values affect profitability.
Finally a big thank you to Matthew Wood of Phase 2 Planning for his expert breakdown of the new NPPF (Dec 2024) and its impact on housing delivery - an essential update for developers navigating the planning system.
A warm welcome to Molly Chopra and Paula Chalmers – fantastic to have you with us! 😀
Looking forward to the next session! 🚀
