‘It’s not about the money’: Yannopoulos brothers on building their property business

·

Peter and Steven Yannopoulos co-founded their property and development business Manticore Projects six years ago, and are “set to take the construction world by storm with their humour, grit and undying work ethic,” writes The Daily Telegraph. 

29-year-old, Peter, began working in the industry with Meriton prior to commencing Manticore, however, developed a passion for property early in his childhood.

“My obsession with helping my parents choose our next family home from a young age, combined with frequent local and international travelling, led to a passion in property,” he told The Daily Telegraph.

Though the brothers have nine high-end holiday homes on the horizon over the next five years, Peter says it’s not about the money. 

“Kudos to those who dream of being billionaires but for me, it‘s not about the money. The enjoyment of building and seeing a product come to life is key,” he said.

As for younger brother, and well-known TikToker, Steven, his sights are firmly set on finishing his degree and continuing to work with his brother. 

“I’m excited to see where we go. Manticore isn’t just a construction company, it’s a versatile enterprise that caters to a wide range of queries which is why we’re perfect for complex chain projects,” he said.

“Steven and I work together very closely. We both wouldn’t be where we are without each other.”
