Our Story
From small renovation projects to large scale developments, Paul Highfield has built his career by learning through real projects and sharing that experience with others.
Paul Highfield began his journey in property development in the late 1980s. After leaving school at fifteen, he entered the building industry and quickly developed a strong understanding of how projects are built from the ground up.
By the age of nineteen, he had completed his first development project. Over the years, he worked across a wide range of developments, learning through both successful projects and challenging market conditions.
As his experience grew, Paul moved beyond construction into full development. He learned how to identify opportunities, manage risk, and make decisions that shape real projects from start to finish.
Today, Paul is one of the founding Directors of the award-winning Rockwell Homes, a leading housebuilder in the Home Counties. His journey reflects decades of real-world learning, built not though theory, but through hands-on experience across every stage of development.
Completed his first development at nineteen, laying the foundations for a long career in property.
Paul has a current development pipeline valued at more than £200 million.
The Highfield Property Network was created to help aspiring developers access real knowledge, practical guidance, and a community of people actively building property projects.

Watch how Paul built his career in property development and why he created the Highfield Property Network to support the next generation of developers.
Successful development projects require more than construction knowledge. They require planning, patience and the ability to manage risk.
Over the years Paul has developed a practical approach that focuses on sustainable projects, careful financial planning and long term growth rather than short term speculation.
Instead of chasing quick wins, the focus is on understanding each opportunity in detail. Every project is approached with a clear strategy, realistic expectations and a strong awareness of potential risks.
At its core, the approach is about building projects that work in the real world, creating value over time and developing a mindset that allows long term growth in property development.
The Highfield Property Network brings together aspiring and experienced developers to learn, collaborate and grow within the industry.
For anyone looking to succeed in property regardless of their age or stage in life.
No, HPN is designed for those with an interest and passion for property. Whether you are at the beginning of your journey or a seasoned developer, HPN exists to help you grow.
You will learn everything you need to know about property development and doing deals. We don’t cover areas such as buy to rent, how to be a landlord or HMOs for example.
No, you just need an understanding of how to find and secure the right deal. Find the deal, secure the deal and people have to work with you. Remember, education and support are far more important than big cash reserves.
No, Just a desire and a commitment to learn.
In a number of ways. We don’t just offer courses. Our aim is to support you on your journey, helping you to avoid costly mistakes and maximise the potential of the deals you do. We are here to support you throughout your journey and that’s why we offer so much mentoring, networking, ongoing education and support before and during your deals. You’ll also become part of an incredibly supportive community who are on your side 100%.
It can be quicker but, realistically, even our own deals tend to see something tangible between 9 months and two years. That’s why we suggest a commitment to 2 years of membership. You can choose after your first year though, it’s up to you.
Either through your own login to our course portal or via our very own HPN app.
