53 – The critical importance of risk mitigation in property development (Don O’Rorke part 2)

In this episode we wrap up the conversation with seasoned developer Don O’Rorke. Don is the executive chairman of Consolidated Properties Group. Consolidated is one of Australia’s leading development companies with a current work book of more than $2 billion. It is a privately owned company that has delivered more than 200 projects over the last 35 years.

If you missed the first part of the discussion go back to episode 52 and catch up, as Don shared a lot of gold with us about how he got started in the business, the key projects they did along the way and lots of tips on succeeding at developing.

In part 2, we continue talking about the lessons learned along the way including the importance of identifying and mitigating risks, adapting to the current credit market, and some of the projects that didn’t go according to plan. Don will also share a tale of a $200,000 cheque and why it is an important reminder to avoid legal litigation.
