Midlands Entrepeneur Steve Dodd – The property market is warming up says

Midlands Property Entrepeneur Steve Dodd, of FRD Associates and the Elevate Property Group, said: “This is a statement of faith that the property market is warming up.”

Dodd is referring to a new lease of life for a stalled project in that MORE than two decades of uncertainty over the future of a landmark building high on the Malvern Hills now seems to be over, with a major redevelopment well under way.

Wells House, a former coaching inn which was later a school, has been in the hands of a number of developers over the last 20 years, but none of their plans have come to fruition.

Chris Phillips Homes, got as far as opening a show apartment on 2008, but ground to a halt the next year after the firm went into voluntary liquidation as the economic crisis deepened.

But now Warwickshire-based firm FRD Associates has restarted the project.

Phase one of the development is already complete, with eight out of 11 apartments already reserved or sold. Work is under way on phase two, which will see eight more completed by the end of this month.

FRD Associates is now talking to architects and district planners about bringing the coach houses next door back into use as two more homes.

Wells House was built in 1748 as a coaching inn and later converted into a small hotel for visitors who enjoyed the pure spring Malvern water in the grounds and visited the Holy Well, just 400 yards away.

In the 20th century the building was a boarding school until 1991. Sir Edward Elgar played the chapel organ there for many years.

Dodd, a well know and prominent developer in the region with a track record spanning over 20 years said –   “This is a statement of faith that the property market is warming up.

Ward councillor Chris Cheeseman concurred: “This is a very difficult site, and congratulations are in order if this developer manages to succeed after so many have failed.”

Free Dale Carnegie Book Download

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

This is slightly off-topic as we usually promote online marketing activities, but we’ve made available a free download of Dale Carnegie’s famous “The Art of Public Speaking” book.

This is a 320 page book (in PDF format) that you can download by clicking here.

Who is Dale Carnegie?

It’s actually Who was Dale Carnegie.  Dale has been dead for half century but his books are still amongst the best sellers today.  “How to win friends and influence people” has sold over 7 million copies.

Carnegie was an American writer and lecturer and the developer of famous courses in self-improvement, salesmanship, corporate training, public speaking and interpersonal skills.

Carnegie was an early proponent of what is now called responsibility assumption, although this only appears minutely in his written work.  One of the core ideas in his books is that it is possible to change other people’s behavior by changing one’s reaction to them. His work is still highly relevant.

The “Art of Public Speaking” is a tremendous book, and it’s free for you to download here.
