An apartment block has sold out in two hours — which hasn’t happened in seven years — because the suburb’s wealthy have no-where to downsize to from their huge mansions.

A penthouse in a new boutique luxury apartment block, which launches tomorrow, has sold for a record price in Mosman village — and it doesn’t even have a water view!

Recently the Owners Corporation Network (a not-for-profit organisation that assists strata owners navigate strata living), held a Webinar to explain in greater detail what iCIRT is and why people buying apartments Off the Plan, should buy from iCIRT Rated companies.

In its pursuit of exceeding expectations, multi-awarding winning developer-builder HELM is ushering in a new era of luxury apartment living in the green heart of Mosman.

Reverie will grace Myahgah Road opposite picturesque Allan Border Oval, and back onto Vista Street. It will be HELM’s seventh development on the Lower North Shore, each one striving to improve on the last, but never before has a site like this one become available.

People who buy a defect-ridden apartment in future will only have themselves to blame, NSW Building Commissioner David Chandler has declared while revealing the first developers to be awarded gold stars under his new rating system.

A lifestyle-changing development aimed primarily at owner occupier empty nesters and affluent baby boomers is now selling in Cremorne.

HELM was one of the first three Developers or Builders in NSW to achieve an iCIRT Rating. Pleasingly, HELM achieved the highest rating awarded to date, being 4.5 Stars. The NSW Building Commissioner believes iCIRT Ratings are a ‘game changer’ for the industry, as a rating enables Purchasers to have the power of choice when purchasing an apartment, because an internationally acclaimed and regulated Ratings Agency has rigorously investigated each companies track record, capital risk & financial stability, risk management processes, business & procedural practices, Directors past behaviour and ownership structure to evaluate the trustworthiness of the Company.

NSW Building Commissioner David Chandler OAM speaks to HELM CEO Mark Monk to discuss what developers need to be doing now to prepare for the new Design & Building Practitioners Act.

Underlying the continuing strength of property on the Lower North Shore, long-term Mosman residents Peter and Maria Abrahamson have secured the last remaining apartment at the luxurious Phi development in Spofforth Street, Cremorne.

The multi-award-winning Developer-Builder HELM has completed an eye-catching apartment project called Ora, which has set new design and quality standards for Dolls Point. Among the first buyers were Laura Porter & Romin Patel. This is their story...

For the third time in the past five years an apartment development on the Lower North Shore has been judged to be the finest in Australia. Even more meritorious is the fact that all three triumphs have been created by the locally owned and operated development company, HELM.

These five words are what every developer and builder longs to hear from an apartment purchaser on completion of a project.

Like the facades of some well-publicised Sydney apartment buildings, public confidence in the construction industry has crumbled.

The privately-owned Australian developer HELM has just won another prestigious industry award; this time for its project Encore at Ramsgate Beach.

One of the benefits of retirement is having the free time to travel, which is why Geoff and Lorraine Thoroughgood decided to further enrich their lives by moving into a stimulating lock-up-and-leave environment without any maintenance worries.

In this era of massive, cookie-cutter apartment developments built primarily for investment, HELM continues to prove that quality is still being recognised.

“The change has revitalised us as we approach our retirement,” is how Tony and Ryann Michaels describe their experience downsizing from a large family home into an apartment.
