Hello - Newbie from Northern Ireland

[Daniel Mahood]

Hi all,

Pleased to be giving this forum a whirl on what I hope will give me the knowledge to realise an ambition.

I am a 29 year old graduate of Building Surveying currently working in England for a Niche developer who specialise in the conversion of buildings into luxury properties in their production department getting experience on most aspects of property development.

My ambition however for many years has been to begin property development for myself, taking redundant or out of date properties and bringing them back into use. (nothing new there). I would like this to grow eventually into small scale new build developments. (say 2-4 homes)

Working for myself is a real importance to my ambition as getting stuck in and dirty is just as crucial to my job satisfaction as programming works, labour and balancing the all important accounts.

What I hope to gain from this forum is methods of starting up. I have no capital nor do I have a mortgage of which to borrow against. Are there methods of start-up that include outside investment or bank assistance? No time like the present to begin the research.

Hi @George Kengott, I would be interested to hear your views on US interest rates as there is a growing suspicion that the Federal Reserve may have jumped the gun when it increased base rates. However, surely talk of the US economy returning to recession is well ahead of the game?
