What does it actually take to go from working on building sites to developing your own sites? This free 30 minute webinar, led by Addison Dethridge of Dexter Property Group and Bellco Design & Build, offers an honest, first-hand account of breaking into property development from a construction background.

Addison has delivered over 45 units since 2019, ranging from single new-build homes to a 16-unit residential scheme with a GDV of £6.6m, and a 16-flat conversion with a GDV of £3.38m. In this session he will walk through how he got started, how he structured JV partnerships and development finance, and how he scaled his projects — including the deals that nearly didn't happen.

The session will also cover the real challenges developers face on the ground: planning conditions, contractor management, financial controls, and the mental demands of larger projects. Attendees will leave with practical lessons applicable whether they are considering their first development or looking to scale up.

The session will be followed by a live Q&A.
