Shownotes

Charlotte Edwards, a.k.a. the Accidental Female Developer, is a successful property developer, investor and coach. Charlotte's story in property didn't have a dream start. As a single mother with zero experience in property development, a marketing background, and a love for challenges, Charlotte had to rebuild the family development firm with 25 houses to build, a truckload of debts, and money to construct barely two. 

In this episode, Charlotte Edwards shares her biggest wins and oops, her thoughts on being a woman in a male-dominated industry, how she transitioned into a CEO mindset, and more.  

What Is Covered:

  • How Charlotte got into property development
  • Turning COVID restrictions into opportunities
  • Charlotte's rookie mistakes and what she learned from them
  • What drew her to stay in property after she "saved" the family business
  • The adjustments she made to start operating as the CEO of her company
  • What it’s like to be the woman in charge of a property site

So as long as you educate yourself, intentionally invest your time in bettering your skills and aren't afraid of saying “I don't know”, you can succeed in property development even with no previous experience or knowledge, like Charlotte did.
