Valerie Smith from Valsco Property Group has harnessed the power of joint ventures to enable her to take on bigger projects. Valerie and her husband have travelled the well worn path from property investors and renovators to property developers. They are now focusing on some niche disability accommodation projects to provide much needed dwellings for many Australians.

In this discussion with Valerie we cover:
- How more women can get into property development
- the power of joint ventures to accelerate growth and reduce risk
- the value of focusing on a niche product for a specific group
