Andrew bought a church to subdivide. The sewer line killed the plan. He still made $200K+. Here’s how.
In this episode of The Andrew Wright Property Podcast, Andrew breaks down a deal that started with big development plans… and ended with a completely different outcome, a profitable one.
What began as a potential two-lot subdivision ended up as a leased asset and a quick flip, thanks to a missed sewer connection, a private lending strategy, and a lucky GST contract clause that delivered nearly $50K back at settlement.
If you’re buying sites with development upside, or considering commercial value-add plays, this episode is a masterclass in adapting when things don’t go to plan.
Inside this episode:
“I didn’t add any value. I didn’t even touch the site. And I still made $200K.”
