Develop With Dale

The first deal I ever did.

Northern Ontario, 2005. Twenty years old, minimal money saved, no car, and a mortgage approval I had to walk through a snowstorm to keep.

The full story is in the swipe.

I share this one because it’s the closest thing I have to an answer for the question investors always ask me at some point: how will you treat my capital?

The same way I treated my own when nobody was watching.

This stage isn’t the foundation.

The foundation of development is:
– strategy
– project structure
– risk mitigation & partner alignment.

We set a solid foundation before we design and pour the foundation.

Concrete day isn’t just construction.

It’s a “no-turning back” moment

At this stage:
– everything is locked in
– inspections are complete
– mistakes are made permanent.

Ex*****on here affects everything that follows.
