Our resident planning expert and CWPA MD, Joe Corr, recently joined Newstalk presenter Sean Moncrieff to discuss various planning topics. They covered the process of lodging planning applications, the importance of basing observations on planning criteria rather than personal objections, and the timing and duration of the application process. Joe also shared insights on strategic infrastructure developments, the appeals process, and judicial reviews.

“Measure twice, cut once”.
Here’s a sustainable business with a difference. Life size Plans Leinster use projection technology to provide you with a real-life walkthrough of your home or commercial building plans, revealing potential issues that otherwise typically reveal themselves during (or after) construction.
Identifying and resolving issues at the planning stage with a walkthrough setting avoids the costs and stress of re-work - and importantly avoids the associated waste of resources from re-work.
Well done to John Foley and Emma Foley for bringing this innovative solution to Ireland.
The Babcock, once a city within a city, has been brought back to life thanks to the dedication of Clachan Properties, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and Berkadia. After a five-year-long development project, The Babcock, and its iconic cupola, have been revitalized. Join us in celebrating the historic preservation of The Babcock and the Bull Street District in Columbia, South Carolina. #HUDhttps://ow.ly/PiGY50RZ4vO
5 minutes per day for 18 months from May 2022 to October 2023. I rarely missed a day and never missed two days in a row.
That's how I studied and earned my CCIM pin. This was something I wanted to achieve ever since I was an office tenant rep broker with JLL back in 2009-2011. I had a built in easy excuse that I didn't have the time and it was too expensive.
Besides the financial and market analysis lessons that I learned to achieve my pin, here are a few additional lessons I learned along the way to receiving this designation.
1) If something is important to you, you will find the time to do it.
It's easy to say that you don't have time, but if you really examine your day there are plenty of things that can be eliminated that are useless and don't contribute to achieving the goals you want to achieve and the life you want to achieve. We all have the same 24 hours in a day. How do we use each hour, each minute?
2) Discipline, consistency, focus and resiliency are all so important. Doing small things everyday consistently over a long period of time will eventually yield great results.
With work and family life, I didn't have large blocks of time available to devote to studying. I just started small with five minutes per day and never missed a day for 18 months straight.
3) Be humble and be always willing to learn new things as a lifelong learner.
I don't know everything and there are always new things to learn. Learning never stops.
4) Invest in yourself.
As Warren Buffet says, "Investing in yourself is the best thing you can do. Anything that improves your own talents. Nobody can take it away from you."
If the thing you want is too cost prohibitive, find another way. There's always a way. I found a scholarship that I applied for and won so this covered my costs. This eliminated this excuse for me.
5) Set a goal and map out a plan to get there.
It's easy to set a goal (i.e. New Year's resolutions), but what steps will you take to achieve it and how will you get there? Life happens and can derail your plans but stay disciplined and stay the course. Course correct as needed along the way while never losing sight of the end goal.
The best athletes in the world all have coaches. People in business should have coaches too. I've worked with Tim O'Brien and George Randle. Best of the best.
