All the profit in a Self Build Project is made before the first brick is laid!

True? or False?

Incredible, but True!

I bet you thought that the way to maximise Self Build Property profits was in running the project well?

Or in making sure the workmanship is of high quality?

I bet you thought that your knowledge of DIY or previous experience working on properties would stand you in good stead?

Am I right?

Well, the truth of the matter is that DIY or building experience will be useful, but it won't make or break the financial success of your project!

And that's why anyone can self build and make good profits - but most people don't!

Why? Because they don't follow the fundamental rule that all the money is made before you lay the first brick.

Would you like to Double Your Money - Tax Free?

Perhaps you are asking yourself 'but why should I build my own property?'

Well, the answer is because you can double your money - often tax free - on the average property.

Self Build will appeal to people looking to:

make a big profit - and perhaps throw in the day job?
save money on buying a finished property - this way you have the house you want without the mortgage
it's the only way to get the property that you want within your budget - with current property prices, this might be the best way to get what you want.

Self Build Secrets gives you a step by guide you to make your project a financial success, by ensuring that you achieve your 25 percent gross profit return, whether you intend to sell the property or live in it!

And if you use finance to leverage your project, then you can achieve your profit whilst only using 25 percent of your own money.

Which means that you double your original investment - all in under a year! What other form of investment offers such an amazing return?

Please note, if you have an unlimited budget and are just building for fun, then you might prefer a nice glossy book on building your own home. There are plenty of good books that will meet this desire, but Self Build Secrets will not!

So, in essence, Self Build Secrets will show you how to make a profit.

That means the profit is nearly all made up of:

choosing the right site
the right design
financing your project, and
most importantly - planning your project

Not just planning where, when and how, but getting right down into the nitty gritty which will influence the whole project.

And that's where most people come unstuck.

If you have never planned a major construction project then without high quality advice and guidance it will almost certainly go wrong! And by 'wrong' I mean, you'll see your profit disappear.

However, if you follow the tips and advice within Self Build Secrets, you find that you really can build in your profit without even picking up a trowel!

And that's because the profit is all made in the planning.

Okay, so now you know where the profit lies, (in the pre-build stage) then all you need to do is find someone successful to help you through the process...

...and that's where Self Build Secrets comes in.

So Self Build Secrets can really show me how to make money?

Self Build Secrets shows you how to go about finding land and creating a profitable project.

It will show you how to plan and how to cost every thing out. So even before the building work starts, you are going to know exactly who will buy your property, what you will spend on the land and build (and how to minimise any pitfalls that will inevitably crop up).

For instance you'll:

know what materials you are going to use
have lined up and briefed your tradespeople

...and so your project will run smoothly and at the end you'll have a very tidy profit!

In essence, Self Build Secrets will show you how to cost and manage the project in the most effective way so that you really do make that tidy profit!

”What a fabulous book, CD-ROM, newsletter and bonus items! The information, tips and secrets were invaluable to my own self build project! It really told me everything I needed to know, and helped me stay focused on managing the project property, getting the job done within the time allocated, even being mentally prepared, and, most importantly, within the budget! Self Build Secrets is literally a bible for anyone building their own property!”
Phil Sexton, Birmingham

Why some people don't make money by building themselves (and what you can do to avoid their mistakes)


Property is still the most reliable investment you can make and that is why so many people renovate, self build and buy and sell properties.

However, some people throw themselves into the project without planning it first - and fail to make any profit at all.

Or even worse, they end up with debt because of the project.

When this happens, it could be for any number of reasons – maybe they didn't cost the project out properly? Or they got caught out by 'cowboy' tradesmen? Or they didn't research the area properly and find that a pylon will be the view from your new conservatory?

It could even be down to the location - a typical example is that of the first time builder who bought a plot of land miles from anywhere and built on it a beautiful five-bedroom family home, complete with games room for any young children.

The house was on the market for months and eventually was sold at just £2,000 profit...the location just wasn't suitable for a working couple with a young family.

With Self Build Secrets, you'll see how careful planning will help your project run smoothly.

And, by using the expert advice within Self Build Secrets, you will have the kind of knowledge that only a professional builder will have.

You'll be able to make informed decisions about everything from financing your project to finding reliable tradespeople; from spotting problem sites to knowing the right layout for your property. Even how to set out the foundations!

What ever you do, just don't forget that you'll have made your profit even before that first brick is laid!

Did you know that you can potentially make a 25% profit on the total cost of your project?

Yes, 25%! And even if you are not primarily planning to self build to make a profit, but to build the home that you want, remember that self building is extremely tax efficient - it's a win-win situation, you finally get the house of your dreams, and at a snip of the price!

Self Build Secrets will tell you how to:

build a profitable project from the word go!
manage and plan your self build project so that you keep within time constraints and your budget and bank the profit
be mentally prepared - ie how to deal with the ups and the downs of your project so that you stay motivated and focussed
decide what designs and what raw materials to use... plus much more

Jo Mallory, Beckenham, Kent
