I recently purchased Dr Dennis Coote’s E Course – Property Development for Profit. The subtitle of the course is: Make up to £30,000 or more on your first property project and become wealthy through property development.

30% off Property Development for Profit by Dennis Coote

The course is great value at £67 as I got a 30% off discount voucher for Just Do Property members. With 148 pages in the E Course and several bonus books it’s a great deal. The bonus books include selling without an estate agent, negotiation, kitchens, bathrooms and legals.

Dennis also gives 3 months free consultancy when you purchase the E Course.

It’s an easy to read document as it’s interspersed with pictures so it brings life to the words. He advises on what sort of houses to purchase initially when you are just starting out and gives details of lots of useful websites. There are also exercises to do which helps to cement the learning. Once you’re out and about checking out houses, Dennis has included an excellent checklist to review each property.

There’s a section that covers how to get the best deals from Estate Agents and how to find distressed sellers. It’s stressed that location, location, location is the number 1 priority and it’s important to remember that you make your profit when you buy the house not when you sell!

Dennis has obviously got a great knowledge of renovation and this is shown throughout the E-Course. He gives full details of building materials used on properties and what to avoid at all costs. He reminds us that we’re not looking for the perfect house, but one that can be brought up to standard for minimum cost.

Personally, I wasn’t keen on the type of suspended ceiling shown, which was suggested to be used to cover up Victorian features if it doesn’t fit the decorating plan. I agree though that they shouldn’t be destroyed though as original features are beautiful and are in great demand now.

The course also gives details of infestation as this covers a number of problems that can seriously affect the property and at the same time SERIOUSLY affect the profit you will make.

The next section discusses how to actually purchase the property and plan the refurbishment. It goes through these things in great detail and is an excellent resource. An example of how to do a project plan is also included and he stresses that you must have a proper plan if you want to make lots of money out of your development.

All in all it’s a great E Course which covers many areas with regards to finding the right property to buy, spotting any defects with the property, negotiating the purchase, renovating then finally selling the property.

I’d definitely recommend the course if you are planning to purchase and renovate property for profit. Click here for more information.
