How to become a Property Developer?

thejourney

I have a few questions on a Property Developer career?

Do they need an qualifications or are they just Project Managers?

Can they get people to invest into their project without an investment qualification ?

Can anyone become a property developer and flip houses under a company name?

Gloomtastic!

You're already a dreamer OP, next you need balls of steel and be able to sell sand to the Arabs. :rolleyes:

Generally you need land and money, but if you have money the rest is easy .

No qualifications required, just loads of neck.

(1) Buy a suit
(2) Join Fianna Fail.
(3) Never, ever use your own money.
(4) borrow big, never small.
(5) slip your local Fianna Fail TD a brown envelope from time to time.
(6) slip the county/city manager a brown envelope from time to time.

Feel safe in the knowledge that if and when it all goes belly-up you can simply walk away without a care in the World.
Laugh all you want, this is not a joke, its the way this country works.

Marry a farmers daughter, make sure she's an only child, and the lands yours.

I would think if you have to ask the question.

Perhaps it's not for you.

Mod Note: If you want to setup a business then you need to research setting up a company, company law, business financials and tax. Talk to a good accountant and your local enterprise office about help setting up a business.
