Development Workshop

Build Your Development Arm

Development WORKSHOP

The 1-Day Workshop for Profitable Builders Ready to Create Wealth on Their Own Terms

You have built a solid, profitable building business. Now it is time to make your money work as hard as you do.

This is where your next level begins.

Imagine this is your business in 12 months.

Your build business is running well. Profitable work coming in. Good team. Solid cashflow.

But now there is a second engine. A development arm sitting inside your existing business, structured correctly, working with your numbers not against them. Generating lump sum returns that make three months of client work look like pocket money.

One project. One deal. Owned freehold in under four years with $230,000 a year in passive rental income on top of everything you are already making from your build work.

That is not a fantasy. That is what one of our builders did after attending a Builders Coach development workshop. He had the skills. He had the profit. He just needed the framework.

Real Result From A Builders Coach Workshop Attendee

One of our builders attended a Builders Coach development workshop unsure whether a particular opportunity was too good to be true. He walked away with the validation and the framework to move forward. The deal: An 11-room property with ensuites, secured for under $400K. He spent $200K on the fitout. Total investment: $600K.

A commercial tenant signed a five-year lease at $400/week per room, returning $230,000 per year in rental income. At that rate, he owned it freehold in under four years, with ongoing passive cashflow.

He's since identified a second opportunity. A third is in the works

This is what is available to a builder who sets up their development arm correctly.

Not instead of their existing business. Alongside it.

Build Your Development Arm is the day you get the framework.

You have built a great business.

But it still depends entirely on clients.

Every job in your pipeline belongs to someone else. If a client pulls out, your cashflow takes the hit. If work dries up for six weeks, you feel it immediately.

You are good at what you do. But right now your profit is sitting in your bank account working at 4%. Meanwhile builders with the same skills and the same profit are using it to build generational wealth.

The difference is not luck. It is not connections. It is structure.

Half the builders who try development make serious money.

The other half make a serious mess. The difference is not skill. It is preparation.

This day is your preparation.

What You will Learn…

This is a full-day working session, not a seminar. You complete your Development Action Plan workbook throughout

the day and leave with a clear, personalised roadmap for your specific business. Here is what we cover:

Add a development arm that generates serious returns alongside your existing build income
We will show you exactly how the most profitable builders structure a development arm inside their existing company, so it builds wealth without disrupting the cashflow and client work that is already running.
Set it up correctly from day one so it works with your business, not against it
We will show you how to structure the entity and accounting so it integrates with your building company, optimising your profit, tax position, and borrowing capacity before you commit a dollar to a project.
Access the finance strategies most builders do not even know exist
We will show you proven development finance strategies including JV structures, SMSF leverage, and serviceability structuring, so you know exactly how to fund your first project and what your real options are.
Navigate approvals and red tape without the guesswork and without the horror stories
We will show you how to assess risk properly, move through the approvals process with confidence, and avoid the traps that derail builders who go into development unprepared.
Land bank strategically so a dropped client job never kills your pipeline again
We will show you how land banking works as a cashflow buffer and a wealth creation strategy, so your development arm protects your build business at the same time as it grows your net worth.

You leave with a completed Development Action Plan workbook, your entity structure mapped out, your finance pathway understood,

and your first development clearly within reach.

The best business model for builders is a consistent flow of high-margin client work with a development arm generating lump sum payouts while offsetting tax. Generational wealth. Succession. Legacy.

Kurt Hegetschweiler, Million Dollar Builder 2.0

What does your business look like when this is set up correctly?

Your build business keeps running. Profitable client work. Good cashflow. Strong team.

But now there is a second engine. A development arm sitting inside your existing company, structured correctly, generating lump sum payouts that make three months of client work look like pocket money. And offsetting your tax in the process.

When a client job falls over at the last minute, you are not scrambling. You have your own pipeline. Your own projects ready to go. That is what land banking gives you.

You already have the skills. You already have the profit. Now it is time to package that into a business that builds assets, generates passive income, and gives you more lifestyle choice than client work ever will.

More profit. More control. More freedom. A pipeline that does not depend on someone else saying yes.

That is what this day is built to give you. The roadmap to set it up right.

Who This Is For...

You are a residential builder already running a profitable business with work, margin, and cashflow.
You want to add a development arm to your existing building company, not walk away from it.
You are sitting on profit and want to put it to work in development, but you do not know the right structure.
You are tired of being one dropped client job away from a cashflow gap and want your own pipeline.
You have thought about development but the risk, the red tape, and the unknown have kept you from moving.
You want to build generational wealth alongside your build business, not instead of it.
You want to be in a room with profitable, growth-minded builders, not a generic property seminar.

This is NOT for you if...

You are not yet making consistent profit in your build business.
You are looking for a get-rich-quick formula with no real business foundation.
You want to leave construction entirely and become a full-time developer.

If you are not yet at the profit stage, the most important step is getting your build business to that level first. That is exactly what Kurt's coaching is built to do. Reach out via builderscoach.com and let's get your business ready.

Real builders. Real results. No fluff.

"Kurt's business coaching for builders is first class. His passion for helping our industry is second to none. The one day intensive has given me more in one day than I could learn in 1 year of figuring it out."

Tim Bradshaw

"After 36 years trading I am an overnight success. A huge part of this has been through Kurt's expert guidance. His book Million Dollar Builder should be on every builder's desk. I shudder to think of where I would have been if we never met."

Jim McIntyre

"Kurt has been an incredible coach and sounding board throughout my journey. His ability to simplify complex challenges and provide clear, actionable advice has had a real impact on how I run my projects and manage my team."

Dylan Hemmens

"Since working with Kurt I have gained more control over my jobs, improved my margins, and feel more confident running my business. No fluff, just strategies that actually work."

This is what it looks like on the other side.

You have your development entity set up correctly, structured to protect your build business assets

and optimise your tax position.

You have identified your first site. You know the numbers stack up because you ran the feasibility yourself.

You have a finance strategy in place and a clear understanding of your JV options and serviceability.

And when a client job drops at the last minute, you do not panic. Because your pipeline is not just client work anymore.

After attending this Development Workshop, builders walk away with:

A completed Development Action Plan workbook with their personalised roadmap
Entity and accounting structure explained so they know exactly what to set up and why
Development finance options understood, including JV, SMSF, and serviceability structuring
How land banking works and how to use it to protect cashflow when client work drops
Risk assessment and approvals frameworks so they can move with confidence, not guesswork
Access to a network of specialist experts who work specifically with builders in development
Clarity on whether they are ready to move now, or what needs to happen in their business first

This is not inspiration. This is implementation.

Why This Event Is Different

This is not a property investment seminar.

There are plenty of events out there selling the property development dream. Celebrity speakers, highlight reels, generic strategies designed for anyone.

This is not that.

This Development Workshop is built exclusively for residential builders. That means every strategy, every number, every framework in this room is designed around your specific situation as a builder who wants to add development to what they already have, not start from scratch.

What you will not get:

Generic property investment advice that ignores your existing building business
A pitch for a $10,000 program from the stage
Theory from people who have never run a building company
A room full of investors who have never swung a hammer

What you will get:

Builder-specific development strategy from Kurt Hegetschweiler, 20+ years coaching residential builders
Specialist expert input on entity structure, tax, and finance specifically for builder-developers
A workbook you complete in the room and leave with on the day
An intimate small group of builders, not a 500-seat conference
Real numbers, real case studies, real frameworks from builders who have done this
Post-workshop networking drinks and, for VIP guests, dinner with Kurt and the experts

There is no other event in Australia doing what this day does for builders specifically.

About Your Host

Kurt Hegetschweiler has been coaching and mentoring residential builders since 2004. Over two decades. From sole traders to multi-million dollar building companies across Australia, New Zealand, the USA, and Canada.

He is the author of Million Dollar Builder and Million Dollar Builder 2.0, the Number 1 international bestselling business books written exclusively for the building industry. The books that builders say changed not just their business but their life.

Kurt has personally walked builders through the journey from client-dependent operator to 7-figure business owner. And the most successful of those builders have done exactly what this workshop teaches: they built their profit first, then put it to work in development.

He does not teach theory. He teaches what works. What he has tested, proven, and watched change the financial trajectory of building businesses for more than twenty years.

One of our builders came to a development workshop unsure whether a particular deal was too good to be true.

He left with the framework and the confidence to move.

That one deal returned $230,000 a year in passive income.

He now has a second opportunity lined up. A third is in the works.

That is what happens when the right builder gets the right framework at the right moment.

Upgrade To VIP

VIP dinner is strictly capped at 15 people. This is an intentionally intimate group. When it is full, the VIP tier closes.

Thursday 28 May 2026 | Manly, SYDNEY | 9:00am to 4:00pm

The early bird closes. The market does not wait.

Right now the early bird price is live. The lowest this event will ever be priced.

But more importantly, the market is moving.

Australia is nearly 400,000 homes short of its government housing target. Rental vacancy rates are at record lows. Construction costs are starting to ease. Interest rates are stabilising.

The builders who set up their development structure now will be positioned for the next cycle. The ones who wait will still be stuck chasing client jobs and absorbing cashflow gaps while that window closes.

This workshop runs once. No online version. No replay. No next round confirmed.

The best time to build your development arm was two years ago.

The second best time is 28 May.

Do not let another year pass building someone else's wealth.

You will be in a room with builders who are done waiting.

The conversation you have at lunch with a builder who just closed his first development deal is worth

as much as anything from the stage.

This room is capped to a small room deliberately. Kurt does not run 500-person conferences.

He runs rooms where every person leaves with something real.

The builders here will be:

Profitable, growth-minded residential builders who take their business seriously
People who have been thinking about development and are finally ready to do something about it
Builders at different stages of the journey, some planning their first project, some already started
People who want to connect, share, and build with others who think the same way

After the workshop, we wrap with networking drinks. This is where development partnerships get

sparked, JV ideas get floated, and connections get made that change the direction of businesses.

VIP guests stay for dinner with Kurt and the expert panel. Thursday evening, same venue.

Small group, real conversations, maximum access.

These are the rooms that change trajectories.

FAQ

Q: I am profitable but not yet at the 7-figure level. Is this still the right event for me?

Yes. This workshop is for builders who are making consistent profit and want to use it strategically. You do not need to be at a 7-figure level to start building a development arm. What you do need is a stable, profitable build business as the foundation. If you have that, this day is relevant and valuable for where you are right now.

Q: I am not making enough profit yet. Should I still come?

If your build business is not yet consistently profitable, the most important move is to get that right first. Development amplifies what is already working in your business. It does not fix what is not. Reach out via builderscoach.com to discuss where you are and whether coaching to get there first is the right step before this event.

Q: I do not have capital to start a development. Is there still value in coming?

Absolutely. Capital is one of the most common misconceptions about getting into development. This day covers JV structures, SMSF leverage, and serviceability strategies that mean you do not need to fund everything yourself. Understanding your real options is exactly the kind of clarity the day is designed to give you.

Q: Is this just a seminar where I listen and get inspired but go home without a clear plan?

No. This is a full-day working session. You complete your Development Action Plan workbook throughout the day and leave with a personalised roadmap for your specific business. Kurt's entire philosophy is built on less information and more results. That is exactly what this day delivers.

Q: How is this different from a generic property development seminar?

Completely different. Generic property events are built for investors. This workshop is built exclusively for residential builders who want to add a development arm to their existing building company. Every strategy, structure, and finance approach in the room is designed around your specific situation as a builder. There is no other event in Australia doing what this day does.

Q: What is the difference between GA and VIP?

GA gives you the full day, the workbook, lunch, and post-workshop networking drinks. VIP adds dinner with Kurt and the expert panel on the evening of Thursday 28 May, priority Q&A access, front row seats, and a signed copy of Million Dollar Builder 2.0. VIP is capped at 15 people. Once those spots are gone the VIP tier closes.

This is your moment

You have built a business. You have the skills. You have the profit. You have been thinking about this long enough.

Build Your Development Arm is the day you stop thinking and start building. Not instead of your existing business.

Alongside it. With the right structure, the right numbers, and the right people in the room.

One day. Intimate room. Kurt Hegetschweiler live with expert guests. A workbook you complete and take home.

A development pathway that is finally clear.

Thursday 28 May 2026. Pavilion, Manly. The only question is whether you are in the room.
