Finbar Group completes St Marks and Knightsgate in Perth

West Australian developer Finbar Group Limited has announced the successful completion of two residential projects in Perth – St Marks and Knightsgate. 


Finbar Managing Director, Darren Pateman, said the two projects have a combined end value of $89 million and settlements on both projects are scheduled to commence in October.

“With our current cash position and cashflows anticipated from settlements in these projects over the next few months, our company is very well positioned to support the commencement of new projects this coming year and to continue to have capacity to benefit from new growth opportunities as they are suitably identified,” Mr Pateman said.

Both projects have been well timed to meet the demand for new housing product in Perth, with the St Marks’ apartment project in Highgate selling out in March 2013. The neighbouring heritage school building located has also been sold for future use as an education facility.

The Knightsgate project (pictured), located in Currumbine, has also proved very popular with first homebuyers, with 41 apartments sold in the 43-unit project.
