Angela & Joey have been investors for many years. However, they only started taking Joint Venture partners in March 2021. After only a month of promoting their services, they found all the partners they wanted and more. They knew they were onto something.

Eventually, she met Joey who was in the construction industry. Together they bought a cottage to go skiing and then ventured into the Airbnb space. After working many years in human resources, Angela decided to join Joey full-time as a real estate investor.

Guest: Jason Boccinfuso, Real Estate Investor & Land Developer

In today’s episode, Daniel St-Jean interviews Jason Boccinfuso about land development and pre-construction opportunities. Jasons says that development is like blank canvas painting! You have to have a vision and understand the constraints you have to work with. Access to services is essential: sewer, water, roads, internet, and more. Knowing where the growth is happening is another must in order to be successful. The money is made on the purchase, not on the sale. You have to make the right decision and build equity right from the start. As a developer, you need to know the official plan very well as this will dictate what kind of development you can pursue with the land you will be acquiring.
