Dedicated To Innovation And Impact

We believe that property development can be done in a way that’s both economically viable and socially impactful.

Australia’s property market is in crisis and developers could be contributing to the solution, not the problem, by investing in regional areas, partnering with governments and industry leaders, and understanding that while it’s important to turn a profit, returns can be measured in other ways.

With the skills and experience to understand and innovate at every stage of the development lifecycle, CenturyDMS’s end-to-end management includes:

Market assessment and feasibility studies

Financial modelling
[4]

Design and approvals management

Delivery management

Asset and property management

Our Approach

Our own time and capital goes into every development, ensuring project outcomes aren’t influenced by outside interests. We go deep where others outsource, deciding what to build, how to build it, and delivering the vision start to finish.

Our developments are an important part of a bigger picture. This is why we work with partners, wherever possible, to amplify our social impact. And once a development has been completed, we can provide management services or explore sales structures based on community needs, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

Our Team

The people behind CenturyDMS have a wealth of experience in successfully delivering complex developments both in Australia and overseas. They share an altruistic streak that has led them to wonder how property development could be used for more than profit. Meet the team below.
