Amara Estate Builder Appointed
M/Group is pleased to announce that NVS Construction Pty Ltd has been appointed as builder for Amara Estate, marking the project’s move into the construction phase.
Founded in 2022 by Directors Brendon Bidwell and Russell Holmes, NVS Construction has built a reputation for quality across industrial, mining, residential and mixed-use projects, drawing on the Directors’ extensive industry experience. Their appointment follows the finalisation of the Building Contract and Civil Works package, and construction is set to commence in the coming months.
This milestone builds on strong momentum for Amara Estate. Since pre-sales launched, the project has attracted significant demand from essential workers and investors alike, with now 54 dwellings pre-sold and 37 dwellings contracted to the Government Regional Officer Housing (GROH) program. Full project funding remains secured through the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA).
With a builder now in place, M/Group looks forward to delivering safe, affordable, climate-resilient homes for essential workers in the Kalgoorlie-Boulder region, and will continue to provide updates as construction progresses.

M/Group is pleased to present the Newman Regional Housing Fund – a strategic residential land development in the heart of the East Pilbara.
Located in Newman, one of Australia’s premier iron ore service centres, the development is positioned to meet chronic housing undersupply driven by long-term demand from mining operations. The project comprises 200 titled lots, secured from a Receiver/Manager at a significant discount to replacement cost.
The development will deliver 167 turn-key homes for owner-occupiers and investors, and remaining high-density lots to be sold separately on the open market. M/Group is partnering with NVS Construction and Jubilee Modular, both of whom bring significant experience delivering construction outcomes in regional Western Australia.
Housing supply in the region remains in critical shortage, with very limited new supply delivered over the past decade and demand is expected to continue.

Read moreAmara Pre-Sales Officially Launched
Following much anticipation, M/Group is excited to announce that pre-sales for our latest residential landmark, Amara Estate, officially launched at the end of July 2025.
Amara Estate is a secure, gated community with shared green spaces and residence clubhouse. The primary goal of this project is to facilitate delivery of safe, affordable, climate-resilient homes in a secure, gated community for essential workers in this high priority regional location in the Kalgoorlie-Boulder area. The essential key workers include and aren’t limited to the following industries: childcare, education, emergency services, government employees, healthcare, and retail.
Currently, there are 40 dwellings pre-sold, and 36 dwelling contracted to be leased to the Government Regional Officer Housing (GROH) program. Demand for sales and leasing remains exceptionally strong, driven by Kalgoorlie’s current vacancy rate of less than 1%.
The project is set to move into the construction phase early next year. The Building Contract and Civil Works package has been finalised, and we have secured full project funding through the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA).

Construction Commences on M/Group’s Second Quest
Construction on a 56 room (112 key) Quest Apartment hotel in Ascot has commenced following the successful completion of a $11.5 million development fund by M/Group and subsequent settlement of the 2,211sq.m development site. It is the second property undertaken by M/Group for the apartment hotel giant, with the first in Joondalup currently nearing completion.
The Quest Apartment Hotel in Ascot is located at 266 Great Eastern Highway, near Perth Airport and enroute to the Perth CBD. Its strategic location is in close proximity to Ascot racecourse, Optus Stadium, Crown Casino, Perth CBD and Perth airport, and is serviced by a road network that will see some 63,000 vehicles pass the site each day.
The property is being constructed by M/Group’s building division, M/Construction, which is currently engaged on a number of multi-residential and commercial projects across Perth, including Quest Joondalup.
M/Group Managing Director, Mr Lloyd Clark, said M/Group’s recent success and track record in fully subscribing property funds suggests a thirst in the market for secure investments.
“It’s difficult to dispute the investment potential and returns of a project that has a long- term lease agreement with a multi-national operation, as well as an independent valuation uplift created through the development delivery process,” he said.
“Quest Ascot is one of several property funds M/Group has successfully subscribed, largely due to a group of investors that now follow our projects based on our capacity to deliver.”
Quest is Australia’s largest apartment hotel operator by number of properties and is the second largest by the number of rooms. The Ascott Limited (wholly owned by Singapore’s CapitaLand) owns 80% of Quest . It has over 43,000 operating serviced residence units in key cities around the world with a further 31,000 units under development. Ascott is the largest serviced residence provider in Australiasia and is targeting to double its global portfolio to 160,000 units over five years.
The Quest Ascot development project was negotiated by M/Group in an off-market arrangement.
“We are delighted by our growing investment portfolio and the success it has had in recent months. Some of our investment offers have out-performed expectation, which both demonstrates a solid model and market interest for income-generating funds,” Mr Clark continued.
“We are currently working on a number of new opportunities to meet investor demand.”
M/Group is an integrated property organisation that has over $185 million of Investor funds under management with a projected asset value of approximately $1 billion. The company recently expanded its portfolio to the eastern states to add to its string of regional shopping centres with one centre recording an independent valuation uplift of $10.5million in under a year.
