There’s something coming soon which is set to revolutionise the construction industry, offering unprecedented precision and efficiency: Robotics. In my new book, Breaking New Ground, I explore how robotics can be integrated into your next property development project to streamline construction processes and reduce labour costs. Imagine robot bricklayers – machines that can lay bricks with incredible accuracy and speed, working continuously without fatigue. Companies like Fastbrick Robotics, Construction Robotics and Monumental are already selling machines that can automatically lay a thousand bricks per hour or more. Integrating robotics into the construction process will: ➡️ Accelerate construction timelines ➡️ Deliver high-quality work with a reduced error rate ➡️ Enable completion of dangerous and repetitive tasks ➡️ Reduce waste and costs ➡️ Deliver greater customisation and scalability in building design 3D printing is a type of robotic technology that is already starting to revolutionise the construction sector. It’s growing at a rate of around 90% per annum and is forecast to achieve sales of US$750bn by 2031. I explore all of this and more in Breaking New Ground, now available on Amazon: amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DN6SWRZB. The Kindle version is due to be released on Boxing day, so get your pre-order in now. #BreakingNewGround #PropertyDevelopment #PropertyInvestment #ImpactInvesting #AI #RealEstate #ConstructionTechnology #SustainableDevelopment #DisruptingRealEstate

I got to read Breaking New Ground pre release! @EvanMaindonald is a primary source for property development from 0 to 1. The book goes through many strategies people with no resources can leverage to put bigger deals on their plate but Evan doesn’t sugar coat it. Any big reward always has associated risk. The book also explores a variety of technologies in the construction space that property developers with decades experience may have missed. Get on the list before the drop to be among the first to read it and let me know what you think. maindonald.com/book/

The interest in more #sustainable properties has recently risen and we at MELT are likewise committed to this advocacy. So while we work in growing our property portfolio, we also take into consideration investing in sustainable developments. Happy #EarthDay!

There's a constant high #demand for #hotwater in every hotel. At #ClaphamRoad, we're looking to install #groundsourceheatpumps in an effort to reduce carbon emissions by up to 80%.
Installing #groundsource heat pumps is an intricate process that requires expertise, but it provides long-lasting benefits which ultimately allow our buyers to save more money and reduce their carbon footprint.
MELT Property is always pushing design boundaries and places #sustainability at the forefront of everything we do. By incorporating the latest sustainable technologies into the #ClaphamRoad development, we aim to reduce power and carbon footprint by over 100%.

The #design intention of our #ClaphamRoad scheme is to deliver highly #sustainable development, both in terms of energy efficiency and positive impact on the local community. We aim to deliver a development that will be #carbon #offsetting and #energy #positive.
Cheers to a new beginning! Wishing each and everyone a happy, healthy and prosperous #NewYear!
Wishing you a very #HappyChristmas, from all of us at MELT Team!
With #globalwarming being a significant concern, it's our responsibility to deliver schemes that positively impact the environment. We've teamed up with UK's #sustainability experts with the goal of taking a building, in this case, a hotel, off-grid.

With the government pushing energy-efficiency measures and banning fossil fuel heating in new builds from 2025, #groundsource heat pumps ensure our homes at #LimeGrove are future-proofed. bit.ly/323hUvC

With the combined use of Ground Source Heat Pumps, Solar PV-T and Mixed Mode Ventilation, our models have shown a power reduction of 112.89% and carbon emission reduction of 132.08% per annum, which translates to a massive cutback on yearly running costs by £397,488.72.
Installing #groundsource heat pumps is an intricate process that requires expertise. Still, it provides long-lasting benefits which ultimately allow our buyers to save more money and reduce their carbon footprint.
One of our architects for our residential development in #LimeGrove, Jerry Tate is equipped in delivering #sustainable #architecture. His firm @TateAndCo_ is currently working on a 109 bedroom hotel for The Eden Project in Cornwall which incorporates green technologies.

One of the proposed technologies we have been modelling is Solar PV-T or Photovoltaic thermal. It is a hybrid system that can enhance electrical energy efficiency and, at the same time, produce thermal energy.☀️⚡
The hub is the first hotel to achieve an 'Outstanding' BREEAM rating at the design stage. bit.ly/3oh9GbR
