109 – Meth Lab to Stylish Sanctuary

Tackling your first development project is usually an emotional journey and it was no different for a young architect who turned her focus on delivering an exquisite duplex property.

Jenn Sinclair accidentally discovered that she had bought a former meth lab as the property she planned on turning into a luxury home. It was the start of her journey toward becoming a property developer.

She was inspired by designing and building her family home and decided to take on a duplex project and test her skills out to see if she could successfully execute a development project.

Jenn decided to do two very different interiors and finishes on each unit and this created challenges along the way as she often doubled her choices and decision making.

Jenn invested a lot of time and emotion into her project and learnt a lot along the way which she shares with us including:

- the difference a great builder can make during a project

- trusting in yourself to deliver something special

- working collaboratively with your team to get better results

This is a great story about a young developer trying to produce something special and succeeding.
