Industry Expert
Essential Special Conditions! Gadens (Shaun McNaught)
Every property developer loves the feeling of securing a buyer. Contracts are signed, finance is lining up, and you're already calculating your profit...
But what happens when the legal issues arise after the contract is signed?
Settlement delays, changes to the transaction, contract variations, and pre-sale complications can quickly turn what looked like a profitable project into an expensive legal headache. Too often, developers don't discover the problem until it's already costing them thousands of dollars and by then, fixing it potentially difficult and expensive.
At our next Property Developer Network Meetup, we're excited to welcome Shaun McNaught from Gadens as our Industry Expert.
Shaun will reveal the legal traps that catch developers between contract and settlement, including:
• Common legal issues that arise after contracts are signed but before settlement.
• Delay risks that can impact your project and your bottom line.
• How changes to transactions or parties can create unexpected legal complications.
• The legal risks every developer needs to understand when pre-selling property.
Shaun will show you how to identify these risks early and ideally structure your developments correctly from the outset.
If you're planning your next development or already have one underway this presentation could save you from costly mistakes and help protect the profits you've worked so hard to create. A meetup NOT to be missed!

Karina and Tim Smith
Karina andTim Smith have been involved in property renovations for the past four and a half years, with Karina working full-time in the business throughout this period and Tim joining her full-time in November 2024. They are currently working on their 14th property, with renovations forming the foundation of their experience. More recently, they have expanded into property subdivisions, successfully completing two projects involving a one-into-two subdivision while retaining the existing house.
'Real Deal' Presentation
1 Into 2 Subdivision (Karina & Tim Smith)
856m2, Maddington, Western Australia
Imagine taking on a corner-block property with R17.5 zoning and spotting an opportunity to renovate the existing house while subdividing the land using the Corner Lot Bonus Scheme.
The plan? Renovate the house, sell it, and unlock the potential of a newly created vacant lot. Sounds straightforward, right?
But property development rarely goes exactly to plan!
What they expected to take around 90 days to achieve subdivision approval ended up taking 395 days. Unexpected council requirements added significant costs, power connection delays held things up, and settlement complications created even more pressure.
So, what went wrong? What would they do differently next time? And what can you learn from their experience before making the same mistakes?
At our next Property Developer Network Meetup, Karina and Tim Smith will share their Real Deal, taking you behind the scenes of their renovation and subdivision project including the challenges, unexpected costs and lessons learned along the way.
You'll discover:
• How a corner-block property presented an opportunity to renovate and subdivide
• How the Corner Lot Bonus Scheme helped unlock the site's potential
• Why subdivision approval took 395 days instead of the expected 90
• The unexpected council requirements that created additional costs
• Why engaging a town planner early can make a real difference
• The risks of selling before new titles are issued
• What they learned about finance, lender consent and choosing the right funding partner
Most importantly, you'll hear the lessons they learned firsthand, helping you make better-informed decisions on your own projects.
Because successful property development isn't just about spotting an opportunity. It's about understanding the risks, planning for the unexpected and knowing what to watch out for before you commit your money.
