Our Impact
Homes that matter, neighbourhoods that thrive.
Our mission is to transform renting into an empowering experience that creates options for renters and places to belong. So you can thrive in the best neighbourhoods in Australia without the worst bits of renting.
We do this by providing high-quality, sustainably designed living spaces, enabling renters to feel part of vibrant, well-connected communities that feel like home. By creating homes where every detail is considered, we can make sure that our buildings are efficient and residents aren’t paying more for things like utilities that run off renewable energy.
We believe where you live shapes how you live—and thriving starts with a home that matters.
No greenwashing, just dog washing
We’re transparent about our impact and sustainability targets, and results. We are accredited by legally binding, third-party audited standards, so you don’t just have to take our word for it.
B Corp
As a proud B Corp, we believe peace of mind goes beyond knowing your well-being is cared for - it’s about ensuring we’re always looking for new ways to raise the bar.
We’re not just part of the property industry but here to change it. As one of just 2% of property developers worldwide to achieve B Corp certification, we’re proving that better, fairer, and more sustainable renting is possible in Australia.
You can read more about our B Corp certifcation by viewing our report here.
