87 – When property development is no slam dunk

Property Developer Podcast

Anybody who has been through a few planning applications would know that strange things can happen along the way. Getting a permit is not always as easy as it sounds, particularly if there is some contentious element or interest groups start to mobilise against your application. This is exactly what happened to well known former professional basketball player Andrew Bogut when he tried to get a permit for a redevelopment project he wanted to do on some land he owned. Instead of being a straightforward application it turned into a massive fight that forced him to the courtroom, cost a lot of time and money, and tested his resolve. In this conversation Andrew shares how he was blindsided by a local interest group, how the local councillor hung him out to dry, why he ended up at a planning tribunal and how it all finished up. It was a pretty crazy journey for a guy who just wanted to redevelop his land. Many of the challenges that Andrew faced, I have been through myself with some planning applications, so it was interesting to get his take on the overall experience. There’s lots of practical advice and insight in this conversation, and I am sure you will enjoy it.
