Dear all,
I am a South African, 26 yr old male, currently working as a construction planner for one of the leading contractors in Cape Town. I have one propety. I am currently completing a Masters degree in Property valuation and development. My other qualification are National diploma: Electrical Eng. and Bachelor's degree in Business Admin. I wish to establish my own property development company. Are there any companies or individuals willing to mentor me, for atleast a year? I am willing to relocate.
Regards,
ThandileTo Australia?
There are certainly many of your countrymen here already!
I doubt you will find a business relationship like that on the strength of an post. I think you might have more luck if you applied for jobs and got started in the industry. You will make contacts and meet the right sort of people as you go, perhaps even end up with your own company perhaps in partnership with the sort of person you are looking for.
But in my experience these mentors don't waste their precious time teaching strangers how to compete with them. You need to be bringing something to the table as well.
You would probably do better by getting a job with one of the bigger development companies for a year or two to learn the ropes, then give it a go on your own.
