SMA — Smart Projects

1

With a dedicated focus on residential and commercial developments within 5km of Melbourne’s CBD, SMA creates high impact projects through innovative design and excellence in construction.

SMA applies a holistic approach to property development with a business model encompassing site acquisition, design and development, sales and marketing, construction and settlement.

Uniquely, SMA Projects has carved a niche as a development company through organic growth and using a hands on approach, with integrated processes structured to deliver the highest outcomes.

Approach

Martin Strode, director of SMA, acquired a taste for property development in 1991, while working as a carpenter and builder.

Having successfully renovated and sold his first property, Martin began redeveloping townhouse sites within a 5km radius of Melbourne’s CBD. The subsequent growth of SMA Projects – registered in 1993 - was an organic, measured process that endows the company with a maturity uncommon in property developers.

Martin is supported by a uniquely qualified and talented team – including Robert Murphy, Charlotte Coleman, Dino Tarola, Mathew Carey, Debbie Kelly and John Dynan – some of whom have been with SMA for 13 years.

The Team

2012SMA Projects acquired the landmark Yorkshire Brewery site in Collingwood that had laid dormant for many decades given the great opportunity to bring restoration to a forgotten iconic landmark (once the tallest building in Melbourne). As always I was on the lookout for a new and exciting project in areas that had real growth potential - the Yorkshire Brewery development satisfied all these requirements.

SMA & BeyondCurrently working on around $480 million worth of residential and mixed use developments with a loyal and enthusiastic team, SMA has expanded into a professional and innovative development company with the skills and balance sheet to undertake large scale projects and deliver a quality product within the inner suburbs of Melbourne.

SMA has a formidable reputation for excellence in design and construction.

Creative architectural thought and innovative design principles lie at the foundation of each SMA development, which are created to achieve the best in handcrafted, modern, inner-city living.

Always looking for a point of difference, SMA delivers bold aesthetics, new materials and inventive systems to fulfil its promise of exclusive, unique, highly liveable environments.

Trusting in the best architectural design, demanding excellence in construction and delivery, and applying a hands-on approach throughout the development cycle, SMA has an unrivalled track record of successful projects and customer satisfaction.

SMA creates products that survive beyond fashions or trends; its developments incorporate beautiful aesthetics and appropriate features to address the broad needs of investors and owner-occupiers alike.

SMA’s track record speaks volumes about the company’s position ahead of the market: having successfully and repeatedly acquired sites with huge capital growth potential, SMA rarely advertises in the public realm and yet boasts unrivalled sales rates and multiple second-time purchasers.

Off-the-plan investment in SMA properties represents a real opportunity for investors and owner-occupiers to gain personal financial advantage through stamp duty savings and capital growth performance.

Working closely with its consultants and contractors, SMA manages its sales & marketing, finance and project management functions in-house. As a result of SMA’s streamlined business model, the team is uniquely qualified to inform clients about each project’s development and schedule while working effectively and collaboratively on small to large scale projects.
