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.”

Mirvac’s 45-level Trielle has topped out at Yarra’s Edge, pairing riverfront apartments with wellness facilities, private dining and resident services.

Mirvac has topped out Trielle at Melbourne’s Yarra’s Edge, with more than 70 per cent of the riverfront development sold and approximately 80 per cent of purchasers intending to make their apartment a home.
The figures, released on September 22, point to an owner-occupier audience for one of the precinct’s final residential towers. Mirvac began developing Yarra’s Edge in 2003, and its latest addition occupies one of the remaining absolute riverfront sites.
Mirvac CEO of Development Stuart Penklis said existing residents were among those moving up within the neighbourhood.
“Many purchasers already have a connection to Yarra’s Edge,” Mr Penklis said, describing buyers whose changing needs were encouraging an upgrade within the precinct.
“As one of the final residential towers within Yarra’s Edge, Trielle represents the culmination of more than two decades of creating one of Melbourne’s most established and sought-after waterfront communities,” Penklis said.
“Positioned on the Collins Street axis with absolute river frontage, Trielle offers residents a rare opportunity to enjoy sweeping views across the Yarra River, Melbourne skyline and Port Phillip Bay, while remaining seamlessly connected to the CBD. With Trielle now more than 70 per cent sold, we’re continuing to see strong demand from buyers seeking quality homes in established locations.”
The developer also flagged a penthouse and sub-penthouse collection with larger layouts, premium finishes and broad outlooks. The planned wellness centrepiece, The Oasis, encompasses a 900-square-metre elevated urban rainforest.
Mirvac General Manager Residential Development Victoria Elysa Anderson said Trielle had resonated strongly with buyers seeking a rare lifestyle offering in Melbourne.
“Opportunities to secure a new luxury residence on a riverfront site of this calibre are incredibly rare, particularly within a community like Yarra’s Edge,” Anderson said.
“What makes Trielle unique is the combination of exceptional views, world-class residential facilities and the lifestyle that already exists around it. Residents are buying into a mature waterfront community with parks, promenades, dining, wellness and strong community connections already in place.”
The 45-level tower brings a substantial new presence to that waterfront. Its residential offering spans one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments, with Signature, Prestige and Sub-Penthouse collections accommodating different household sizes. The north-facing position connects the apartments visually to the river and city beyond.
Seven storeys above the promenade, the planned Oasis combines planting and a running stream with a Scandinavian-inspired wellness club developed with spa specialist Naomi Gregory. Facilities include a 25-metre lap pool, hot magnesium pool, sauna, hydrotherapy, a gym, yoga and Pilates room, and treatment spaces.
The amenity extends beyond exercise. Residents will have access to The Biblioteca library and workspaces, ground-floor work pods, and The Salone piano lounge. A private Chef’s Table dining room offers a setting for larger gatherings, while a cinema, games room and sports lounge broaden the entertaining options. Concierge services and a dog-wash area support everyday routines.
Trielle comprises a collection of one, two, three and four-bedroom residences. Reflecting strong demand from owner occupiers, approximately 80 per cent of purchasers to date intend to live in their homes, highlighting the project’s appeal to those seeking a long-term waterfront lifestyle.
Mirvac has recently delivered The Albertine, a premium apartment development on the edge of Melbourne’s CBD, and is nearing completion of Prince & Parade in Brunswick, further strengthening its portfolio of thoughtfully designed apartment communities in some of Melbourne’s most sought-after urban locations.
