Get Council Onside From Day One! SUHO (Alison Fenton)
You’ve got a great site. The numbers stack. You’re ready to push ahead.
Then council hits you with Environmentally Sustainable Design requirements you didn’t fully see coming.
Different rules. Different reports. Different expectations depending on the council.
Suddenly, what should be a straightforward planning approval turns into a maze of consultants, conflicting advice, and delays.
Now you’re scrambling.
Plans need to be reworked. Reports need to be redone. Costs start creeping up.
And worst of all? Time blows out… putting your entire deal at risk.
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
This is exactly where most mum-and-dad developers get caught.
They bring in ESD too late.
They assume one report will cover everything.
They miss simple, low-cost wins that councils are actually looking for.
And it ends up costing them time, money, and momentum.
That’s why we’ve brought in Alison Fenton from SUHO.
In her session:
You will learn how to cut through the noise and get this right from the start.
So instead of delays and redesigns… you get smoother approvals and faster progress to building.
Here’s what she’ll break down for you:
• How to integrate ESD early (and why it changes everything)
• Exactly what reports your site needs and what it doesn’t
• The 10 Key Sustainable Development Categories and the easy wins most developers miss
• How to align planning approval with your building permit from day one
Walk away knowing how to simplify ESD, avoid costly mistakes, and keep your project moving forward.
Because the developers who get this right?
They don’t just get approvals faster.
They build better projects and keep control of their deals.

'Real Deal' Presentation
1 Into 4 Townhouses (Vijay Ramasundaram)
720m2, Glenroy, Victoria
One Site. Four Townhouses. Maximum Upside.
You’ve found a site that works. The numbers stack up. You’ve got a clear plan… maybe a simple 1 into 2. Safe. Straightforward.
Then reality kicks in.
The market shifts. Feasibilities change. What once looked like a solid deal suddenly feels like it’s leaving money on the table.
If you’ve been there, you’re not alone.
That’s exactly what Vijay Ramasundaram faced on this project. The difference? He didn’t lock himself into the original plan. He stayed flexible, reassessed the numbers, and adapted his strategy to suit the market.
What started as a conservative approach evolved into a 1 into 4 townhouse development unlocking the site’s full potential with multiple exit strategies built in from day one.
In this session, Vijay will walk you through:
• How to secure a site with a clear strategy while keeping your options open
• Why avoiding emotional attachment to your first plan can dramatically improve your outcome
• Reassessing feasibility as market conditions shift
• Turning a “good” deal into a great one by maximising the site’s flexibility
If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re getting the most out of your site, this is the session that will challenge how you think about your next deal.
Practical. Strategic. Focused on real outcomes.
