April Platinum Session featuring Bert Dennis - PART 1

Our April Platinum session features the founder and Chairman of Australia's largest private home builder, Mr Bert Dennis of Dennis Family Homes OAM. One of the property industry's most sought after speakers, I first attempted to secure Bert for a Platinum session over a year ago, however, now into his 70s Bert was winding back his public presentations, but after the constant urgings of a number of my clients who work at Dennis Corporation, he finally agreed to add our platinum group to his final list of presentations. I had the pleasure of sharing coffee with Bert and was thoroughly fascinated with his most extraordinary upbringing which makes a rags to riches story sound inadequate. This amazing self-made man dragged himself out of the most disadvantaged circumstances to become one of Australia's most extraordinary property icons. In this session, Bert will discuss: 1. An overview of the struggle of his early years 2. The determination required to rise from his humble beginnings to become one of the states most prominent developers and influential figures 3. His affinity with property and the part that it played in building his wealth 4. The financial philosophies he shares with his children 5. The principles he applies in evaluating property for acquisition 6. His outspoken and controversial views on government and council rules and the impact it has on housing affordability I hope you all enjoy it, we have had some fantastic feedback and we are looking forward to some more from you!
