Why Benchmark

One group. From land to keys.

Most overseas investors deal with many strangers: an agent, a developer, a builder. With Benchmark, one group does the whole job.

01
We fund it.

Benchmark raises the capital, manages the fund and reports to you.

→
02
We develop it.

FYVE finds the land, wins the approvals and plans the homes.

→
03
We build it.

Binah, our own builder, delivers the homes. Fewer hand-offs. Tighter cost control.

Where we build

Only where homes are scarce.

We focus on Sydney's Eastern Suburbs and Lower North Shore. Wealthy local buyers want new homes here. Very few are being built.

Why now

Too many people. Not enough homes.

Australia is not building enough homes. Every home not built is a buyer still waiting. That gap is the opportunity.

262,000
Homes short of the national target by 2029. No state is on track.
15-year low
New apartment approvals. Only 29,470 in FY24, down from over 70,000.
65%
NSW is on track to build only 65% of the homes it needs.
4.9M
Wealthy baby boomers reaching downsizing age. 74% have not moved yet.
The door that is open to you

Foreign buyers cannot buy existing homes in Australia until 30 June 2029. The government wants foreign money to build new homes instead. That is exactly what Benchmark does.
