About Bob Andersen: 

Bob Andersen (known in the property industry as “The Deal Maker”) is a Property enigma. When it comes to creating financial freedom for his followers, his “thinking” is refreshingly simple. He has the ability to make the seemingly complicated, uncomplicated. Bob has changed the lives of so many people by training them to use property development as a vehicle to build substantial cashflow and long term wealth. This in turn, has given them control over their lives and a lifestyle they could previously only dream about. It has been said that Bob has created more property millionaires in Australia than any other educator / mentee out there through his highly acclaimed property development courses. Thank goodness for Bob! Because there are way too many so-called Property education experts out there. Several, even past students, have ‘borrowed’ Bob’s material in an attempt to ‘be Bob’. As Bob says, “I must have done something right, but you can’t ‘borrow’ over 35 years of experience and over $1 billion worth of projects spread across all states of Australia and in all stages of the property cycle”.

"Found the course easy to follow"

I have been very happy with the Property Mastermind development course….found the course easy to follow. It is set out in a logical order and the terminology is easy to understand. I really liked having the support manual as it allowed me to visualise what you were saying. I also found the real life examples good as they put things into perspective.

I found the course to be of great benefit to me…. taught me many aspects of developing that I had not considered. It was very up to date and concise.

"Through Bob’s teaching I have gained so much knowledge and I feel so much more confident in myself."

Bob’s course gave me the confidence in myself to ask investors for money. In the past I have only done projects myself with my own money and banks but now I have built my own investment base. Through Bob’s teaching I have gained so much knowledge and I feel so much more confident in myself.
