How To Build Wealth & Retire Early Developing Property
Save 10 years using the blueprint that helped me develop $450 million worth of property
Meet John Kenel…
Leading Property Developer, Investor, Founder of The Property Development Club
I was born in the tiny rural town of Coromandel, New Zealand.
Growing up on a farm with my parents and six siblings in a cramped three-bedroom house, life was far from easy.
My parents, immigrants from Austria and Switzerland, started with nothing. They worked tirelessly, cutting our farm out of the bush with their bare hands.
From a young age, I was always looking for ways to earn money.
At six, I earned my first pay by collecting snails from my mom’s garden. By 17, I had saved enough to invest in the stock market, but I quickly lost everything in the 1987 crash.
These early financial setbacks were brutal, but they taught me invaluable lessons about life, money, and success.
My turning point came in 1997 when I read “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki. Inspired, I bought my first rental property in Cambridge, New Zealand, while working in London.

– RACHAEL CLEMENTS
“What a wonderful surprise we received this morning from Assured – WOW thank you so very much! We appreciate all the support and the well wishes.”
– DEIRDRE & DAVE
“I was thoroughly impressed by Assured Property’s professionalism and expertise. From the start, their team was friendly, communicative, and ensured we felt confident in our investment. The quality of the build exceeded our expectations, and the attention to detail was evident. The property was tenanted even before handover, providing immediate returns. With Assured Property’s ongoing support, we have peace of mind knowing our investment is in good hands. Highly recommend!”
– DIANNE BURT
“I recently had the pleasure of attending a Zoom call hosted by the Property Development Club, where I presented the details of my project to seek advice and guidance from the members. The experience was incredibly enriching. I received some fantastic insights, practical guidance, and valuable advice—not only from John and Andrew, who are experts in their own right, but also from several other members who were generous with their time and knowledge. Their collective wisdom and support have been immensely beneficial to me as a first-time aspiring developer. What truly stood out to me was the sense of community and encouragement within the club. John, in particular, went out of his way to send me a private message, offering words of encouragement that really boosted my confidence. This kind of personal touch and genuine support is what makes this club so special.”
– HENIK PANCHAL
“We’ve been dealing with Assured Property since 2015. We’ve dealt with many developers over the years, and Assured property is some of the most consistent and reliable we’ve ever dealt with. Would recommend.”
– HARPER PROPERTIES
“The team at Assured have been great to deal with and have made this whole process of buying a new build and purchasing off the plans seamless.

Happy customers – highly recommend.”
– GEORGE
“If you are feeling like you are taking a huge step and don’t know where to go for motivation, you need to get into this club! I am always finding myself waiting for those Wednesday zoom calls. Just the fact that John shares his life’s work alone is a good reason to join. Don’t see a lot of developers sharing their IP with others.”
– ARYA WATWE
“Assured Property’s service is excellent – I cannot fault what they have done.”
– ROB MCGREGOR
“The entire team at Assured Property take a huge amount of pride in what they do, from the purchase of the initial site to the handing over of keys. Through out this journey you’re kept up to date on the progress, with photos and videos. The Assured Property team has exceeded all expectations. Well done!”
– STEPHAN MORKEL
“This was our first big investment, and I was looking for an opportunity to prepare for retirement. Assured Property answered all our questions, and encouraged us to come up and have a look at the property. That was it. I almost signed up on the spot! They sorted the property, the house and even found us tenants. They sourced our property manager – we haven’t had to do a thing. It’s exactly what I wanted as an investor based in Christchurch. If the opportunity comes up for us to purchase another investment property – I’d use Assured Property, without a second thought.”
– TIMOTHY BLAKE
“From what I’ve seen so far it is very good content, well structured, great website and a perfect fit for what I was after.”
– STEPHANE MONTEL
“This was my first experience of buying off plan and building and the team at Assured Property Investments have made this a simple & easy process. From purchase through to settlement all of my questions have been answered quickly and the communication right through the build was excellent with regular progress updates via email & also access to the construction tracker to see what was happening & when and photos of progress. The end product is a fantastic townhouse with quality workmanship and appliances… I would definitely recommend them to anyone else and wouldn’t hesitate to build with them again.”

We will definitely work with Ryan and the Assured team again.”

– EVAN WATSON
“At first I was reluctant to buy an investment property off the plans, but I am very satisfied with the final product. One of the main points that stands out to me is quality, also the efficient and effective design of the building and site layout. My property was under construction during the lock down, however I was pleased with how Assured managed the situation. Look forward to doing business with Assured again and would strongly recommend them.”
– ALBERT LE ROUX
“At first we thought we would only take a look, but then jumped at making an immediate deal after seeing the fine quality and attention to detail of the builds.

Assured Property with John and his team are terrific to deal with – such a pleasure dealing with them and a breath of fresh air in business these days.”
– BRENDAN PODAYKO
“Communication with Assured Property was seamless and hassle-free. The process was smooth, and the build was completed quickly with no complications.”
– NIK & KIM MAY

I highly recommend the Property Development Club to anyone involved in property development or aspiring to become a developer.”

– JENNY MOLLOY
“I would just like to congratulate John Kenel and his whole team at Assured Properties in Hamilton, after purchasing 2 Units off the plans. The whole process has been an eye opener on what can be done for investors in the property market. From the initial contract signed to the continuous updates of progress being made on the construction. The link to see the build in progress in real time with photos of progress was impressive and professional to say the least without having to travel a distance to view. All the way through to completion, we were kept informed of what was required to transition over to getting tenants, insurance, etc. Contacting the team was excellent and any inquiries asked were promptly replied too. I would absolutely recommend Assured Property to anyone who is interested in purchasing a property.”
– MALCOLM FLOOD
“Hi, my name is Jasmeet Singh, I’m a Real Estate agent based in Hamilton and I work predominantly with Property Developers. Alongside my work as an Agent, I am also developing a portfolio of investment properties. I have been working along side John Kenel for around 5 years now.

“It’s a general feeling that buying a property off the plan is very dicey. But this is the best decision my husband and me have made. Assured Property – the name itself says it – you are rest Assured that your money is safe. Found them through facebook. And oh dear, I asked so many questions and they promptly replied. They had a few projects going on and at affordable prices. After many conversations on FB, we were convinced as to which property we would like to sign an offer. After that we were always kept informed regarding the progress. Every month we would receive updates via email with photographs of the building site. Now isn’t that very important? We only went to see the property 2 days before we were to settle. And to our surprise there was Nothing that we needed to complain about. We were very happy with the quality of work too. Now we are proud owners of a good quality home. Thanks to Assured Property.”
