In our next episode of ReadyTalk, Jack Johnstone sits down with Illan Samuel, founder and managing director of Samuel Property, a family-owned Melbourne-based property development firm, which specialises in high-end multi-residential projects. 

Illan founded the firm around 10 years ago and in that time has emerged as one of Melbourne’s most progressive new contributors within the contemporary residential landscape. 

With a background in property valuation, Illan shares his journey from buying his first development site, based on a bad Mexican meal, to managing complex projects across Victoria. He discusses market trends, the importance of precise feasibility analysis, community consultation, and the practicalities of navigating planning processes.

Tune in for direct insights, industry realities, and practical lessons from the front lines of property development.
