How do you find hidden development opportunities on the Gold Coast?
In this episode of Buying Gold Coast, Matt Srama sits down with Carson Bolt from Salt Development Projects and Unemployable Property to unpack how he went from carpet cleaning to building a full-time property development business.
Carson shares how subdivisions, joint ventures, private lending and creative finance helped him get into deals without starting with huge capital.
They also break down what makes a good development site, why big blocks, corner blocks and acreage can hold strong potential, and how developers spot value that most buyers miss.
