Homecorp is a developer and builder established on the Gold Coast in 2004.
Homecorp’s ongoing delivery of residential projects has continued with the successful completion of the $270 million Eve Residences on the Gold Coast.
The luxury residential tower, which has transformed the Golden Mile, overlooking The Broadwater at Labrador, is the latest post-pandemic project that has capitalised on the luxury downsizer market.
The project comprises 157 stunning residences featuring a diverse range of living options, including a collection of two- and three-bedroom apartments, 16 sub-penthouses, and two ultra-luxury penthouses.

The DA approval of stage two will bring forth 289 apartments across two 12- and 14-storey towers, with a collection of one, two and three-bedroom residences, carefully curated alongside generous open-living spaces designed to aid community connection.
Construction on Homecorp’s Cienna Varsity Ridge Stage 2 is set to begin in early 2025 and will be delivered by the company’s new multi-residential construction arm, who will also be undertaking all of the company’s multi-residential projects.
The final stage of a four-tower project within the Gold Coast education and technology hub of Varsity Lakes has the go-ahead from Gold Coast City Council. The greenlight paves the way for 289 two and three-bedroom apartments across two towers rising 12 and 14 storeys.
Homecorp is proud to announce practical completion for levels 1-19 of Eve Residences at 180 Marine Parade, Southport.
Gracing the gateway to Southport’s Golden Mile, this inspiring modern masterpiece reflects the forms found in the Broadwater’s shifting sands.
During the day, watch the boating activity on the Broadwater and at night, the shimmering lights of Main Beach and Surfers Paradise. Broadwater views can be enjoyed from as low as Level 2.
An ambitious dive into build-to-rent towers by Gold Coast developer Ron Bakir, in tandem with giant US funds manager Morgan Stanley, has been turned on its head.
All but 20 of the 257 apartments in Cienna Varsity Ridge’s first two buildings, which were rushed by renters, quietly have been sold off to owner-occupiers and investors.
Ron and his Homecorp group bought out Morgan Stanley before embarking on the sell-off.
It appears both Ron and the American group have fared handsomely and might team up for other ventures.
The state government’s plans to meet the housing needs of the Gold Coast over the next two decades will transform the city.
The South East Queensland Regional Plan, also known as Shaping SEQ, sets mandatory housing targets that councils in the region, including the Gold Coast City Council, must meet.
Homecorp has added 83 apartments and an extra nine storeys across the last two towers planned for its half-complete $200-million Capital Court build-to-rent project.
The first stage of the project—comprising two towers of 10 and 16 storeys—has been delivered and its 257 apartments are occupied.
Under reworked plans by design studio BDA Architecture, the second stage has been increased in height from 10 to 12 storeys and 9 to 16 storeys, respectively adding 19 and 64 apartments.

The Gold Coast property market across all sectors continues to remain one of Australia’s most resilient, bolstered by high numbers of migration and significant new infrastructure and investment projects.
Famed for its natural amenities and idyllic lifestyle, this iconic coastal destination is one of the fastest growing economies in the country with interstate migration fuelling population growth and that in turn super powering demand for property.
Like many parts of Australia, demand on the Gold Coast continues to be strong, driven by high levels of immigration that has been at record levels.
Many were forecasting a drop or at least an easing in the number of people choosing to call the Gold Coast home but the influx of new Australians remains high.
Population growth for the Gold Coast is known for overseas immigration but strong interstate migration is super powering the property market.
As such, property prices are expected to continue increasing throughout 2024.
Prices had been forecast to drop in 2023 but figures showed they increase of 8.1 per cent.
The area is well-known for roller coasters and although the property market also sees peaks and troughs, over the 35 years to 2021 PRD research shows the Gold Coast median house price grew 1,077 per cent and unit prices rose 643 per cent.
The Covid 19 pandemic greatly impacted the building and construction sector. Unsurprisingly, FY23 saw a sharp fall in apartment launches, around a -48 per cent drop from the launch numbers from FY22, however it was still the highest number of apartments launched since FY19.
New apartment sales on the booming Gold Coast. The surge came as a swath of cashed-up local and interstate buyers pounced on the larger luxury residences that have become the post-COVID-19 staple of the coastal city market.
Over the September quarter, the biggest-selling Gold Coast project – according to Urbis – was Drew Group’s Lagoon project at Main Beach, which is being built by Hutchinson Builders and racked up 124 sales across two towers.
The first stage of Cienna, a multi-tower project in Varsity Lakes being undertaken by Ron Bakir’s Homecorp, secured 85 sales. Meanwhile, 26 Vista, a high-rise tower at Surfers Paradise being developed by Malaysian-listed MRCB Malaysia, sold 80 apartments over the quarter.
Urbis director Paul Riga said a significant new trend was the conversion of a number of build-to-rent projects to build-to-sell as developers look to capture sales in a constrained supply environment.
“What the data tells us quite simply is that the demand for apartments has remained strong,” Mr Riga said.
“This is great for the property market, underpins property prices, but creates further problems with supply – meaning if new projects don’t get under way, the supply will continue to diminish.”
Homecorp is about to release the next stage of Cienna Varsity Ridge in 2024 and will also complete Eve Residences, a luxury apartment development on Marine Parade with unobstructed Broadwater views.
