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.

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).

When Downsizing Opens New Doors in Life
Jillian Marshallsay raised her family in a comfortable home in the Perth hills, but with the kids grown up and children of their own, it was time to consider her lifestyle options and take steps to be closer to her family. She purchased a boutique apartment at M/28 by Match in South Fremantle and hasn’t looked back.
Jillian is one an estimated 2.5 million Australian households with owners over 55 who have already downsized or thought about it (Ref: Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute (AHURI)).
The catalyst for her was when her son found the South Fremantle apartment and said, “mum this is for you – you need to get a life!”
“I do love the hills, the walks in the bush, the birds, (but) when you have aging parents and grandchildren, there’s no way you can actually fit everything in with work,” Jillian said.
“I needed a change for the next stage of my life and I wanted to be by transport and close to the beach. I wanted to walk everywhere; the shops, restaurants, cafes and the beach.
“Moving to the city is a total sea change for me!”
Like many others, Jillian purchased her apartment as part of a transition into retirement. She bought off-the-plan and had to visualise what she had invested in while it was under construction.
“It’s sort of better than I thought actually. It has a bigger kitchen than I visualised and I love the full-length windows. I’m happy with the open plan concept and I do like the big pots and the landscaping in the garden.
“I can just lock up and leave and go travelling if I want to and not have to worry about gardens or maintenance.”
Mr Lloyd Clark, Managing Director of Match parent company M/Group, said Jillian is one of a growing number of baby boomer clients moving into Match apartments.
“It is so rewarding to see many of our clients discover a new lifestyle through our apartment designs. They may have moved to the coast or swapped their suburban residence for the inner city, but most wonder why they hadn’t done it before,” he said.
“Apartment design is so different from cookie-cutter environments of the past that were built purely for investment purposes and to maximise space. Today, good developers consider everything from privacy to light, airflow and other comforts that would appeal to an owner-resident.”
“M/28 by Match has given Jillian and its other residents a central and coastal home-base in the thick of South Fremantle. The lifestyle and environment are hard to beat.”
M/28 by Match is a mixed-use building comprising of just 20 boutique apartments on the popular South Terrace coffee strip. The building is deliberately designed to present as understated with naturally inspired materials and palette, which take inspiration from the Fremantle culture and nearby heritage-listed community hot-spot, The Local.
Prices start from $440,000 for one-bedroom apartments and $550,000 for two-bedroom apartments.
