“Jon’s development experience and intimate knowledge of the student accommodation sector is quite extraordinary. One day he called me for construction advice needing to act quickly on an opportunity - within 2 weeks he had purchased the site and six months later we had commenced construction on one of Melbourne’s landmark student residences. Over 2 years we were collaborating on another 5 sites he had transacted in this sector.  His design knowledge and ability to optimise product and maximise yield is exceptional…”
