Monark Property Partners has strengthened its foothold in the east with the launch of a new Sydney office, reinforcing its commitment to supporting high-quality developments across Australia’s mid-market property sector.
Known for providing flexible debt and equity solutions, Monark says the move reflects rising demand for smart, partnership-driven capital in the region.
Tom Nadav, recently appointed Director of Investments, said the move was a “natural progression” for the firm.
“Sydney is a dynamic, resilient market, underpinned by strong fundamentals, consistent demand, and high calibre of developers. Establishing an on-ground presence here was a natural progression,” he said.
“Our decision was driven by the opportunity to bring Monark’s tailored capital solutions across the full capital stack to a new group of partners.”
Nadav said Monark is focused on structuring bespoke funding solutions rather than taking a formulaic approach.
“We see a significant opportunity to partner with developers who share our commitment to quality, execution, and long-term success,” he said.
The firm’s track record in Melbourne, spanning over a decade, includes backing both emerging and established developers. Nadav said Monark’s approach is “opportunity-led” with capital deployed selectively.
“While strong property fundamentals are always our starting point, our conviction to invest ultimately comes down to the people behind the projects – their vision, their ability to execute, and their alignment with our values,” he said.
“We aim to bring real value to every project we back.”
For Nadav, who is leading the establishment of Monark’s Sydney office, the role was compelling for its culture of collaboration and long-term thinking.
“It was the people – a team marked by cohesion, deep expertise and genuine commitment to excellence,” he said. “Our goal is to partner with our borrowers, support their growth ambitions, and be a strategic ally across their development journey.”

Australia’s housing market defies forecasts as prices surge past pandemic-era benchmarks.
Australia’s housing market defies forecasts as prices surge past pandemic-era benchmarks.
2 minAustralian house prices are surging again, delivering double-digit annual growth months ahead of schedule.
Nationally, the median house price climbed 1.1 per cent in October to $940,000, lifting annual growth to 10.6 per cent, the first double-digit increase since the 2021–22 property boom.
Market Resilience Surprises Analysts
The acceleration comes earlier than expected, according to Ray White Group Chief Economist Nerida Conisbee, who says the milestone was originally forecast for the end of the year.
“Stronger-than-expected October gains and continued tight supply across most markets have pushed growth ahead of schedule,” Conisbee said. “This shows how resilient demand has remained through spring.”
Perth (+14.8 per cent), Brisbane (+12.5 per cent) and Adelaide (+10.8 per cent) continue to lead the charge among capital cities, while Sydney (+8.6 per cent) and Melbourne (+6.5 per cent) show steady, consistent increases.
Regional Markets Extend Their Lead
Beyond the capitals, regional Australia is powering ahead, particularly in the resource states.
Regional Western Australia jumped 16.4 per cent year-on-year, and regional Queensland followed close behind at 14.5 per cent, as population growth and affordability continue to drive demand.
Units Outperform Houses
Unit prices rose even more sharply in October, up 1.4 per cent to $710,000, marking 9.2 per cent annual growth. Conisbee said affordability pressures, new first home buyer incentives, and a lack of available stock are pushing more buyers into the apartment market.
“Units are now seeing stronger monthly gains than houses, reflecting both affordability constraints and renewed first-home-buyer activity,” she said.
The biggest monthly jumps were in Perth (+1.6 per cent), Adelaide (+1.5 per cent), and Brisbane (+1.4 per cent). Melbourne’s unit market also firmed, up 1.6 per cent, as buyers returned to lower price brackets.
Spring Demand Defies Higher Listings
Despite an influx of spring listings, new stock has failed to match the intensity of buyer demand. Nationally, house prices have now risen every month since February, and unit prices every month since March.
“The pace of growth shows demand hasn’t been dampened by higher supply,” Conisbee said.
Outlook: Steady Growth Into 2026
The data comes as the Reserve Bank prepares for its Melbourne Cup Day meeting, where rates are expected to remain on hold at 3.6 per cent.
With inflation easing only gradually and unemployment sitting around 4.5 per cent, analysts expect monetary policy to stay steady for now.
Ray White’s forecast suggests 2025 will close with high single- to low double-digit annual growth nationally, with smaller capitals and regional areas tipped to outperform well into 2026.
