Most people think property development is about construction.

Josh Duce disagrees.

In this episode of The Andrew Wright Property Podcast, Josh reveals how developers can create millions of dollars in value before a single sod is turned. By securing large development sites on long settlements or option agreements, obtaining development approvals, and understanding planning frameworks, Josh has built a business around identifying opportunities that most investors never even see.

At just 30 years old, Josh has been involved in projects that have transformed raw land into multi-million-dollar development opportunities, often without needing to fund the entire purchase upfront. From off-market acquisitions and rezoning opportunities to due diligence, council negotiations, and development approvals, this episode provides a rare behind-the-scenes look at how sophisticated developers think.

Josh also shares several real case studies, including projects in Canungra, Toowoomba, Gladstone, Gatton and beyond, where strategic planning decisions created significant value long before construction began.

In this episode:

• How developers create value before construction starts
• Finding and securing off-market development sites
• Using long settlements and option agreements to control large sites
• Why due diligence is the most important part of development
• How zoning, overlays and planning schemes impact land value
• The role of development approvals in creating massive uplifts
• Real-world development deals and lessons learned
• The future of property intelligence, AI and development site sourcing

Whether you're a property investor, developer, or simply curious about how large-scale projects come together, this episode offers valuable insights into one of the most misunderstood areas of real estate.

Most property investors are buying from the same pool as everyone else.

Public listings. Competitive auctions. Emotion-driven offers.

And according to Carson Bolt, that’s exactly why so many investors overpay.

In this episode of The Andrew Wright Property Podcast, Andrew sits down with Carson Bolt to unpack how experienced investors find better property deals before they ever hit the public market and why relationships, networks, and positioning matter more than most people realise.

This conversation goes far beyond “off-market deals.”

Carson shares how serious investors build relationships with agents, position themselves as credible buyers, and gain access to opportunities that never appear online. The episode also explores why many investors struggle to scale, not because they lack money, but because they’re competing for the same visible properties as everyone else.

If you’ve ever wondered why some investors consistently seem to find better deals, this episode explains what’s really happening behind the scenes.

In this episode:

• Why the best property deals are often never publicly advertised
• How experienced investors access off-market opportunities
• The importance of relationships in property investing
• Why many buyers overpay in competitive markets
• How to position yourself as a serious buyer
• The role buyer’s agents can play in sourcing better deals
• Why networking matters more than most investors think
