What MiHaven does
MiHaven is a B Corp certified social enterprise founded in 2011 in Cairns, Far North Queensland, by co-founders James and Sarah Mort. It operates as a multi-divisional property development and construction company with four operating units: MiHaven Property Developments (residential construction of freehold homes, townhouses, and medium-density developments); MiHaven Care (NDIS-registered Specialist Disability Accommodation, currently operating 32 residences accommodating 47 individuals, with a committed $25M expansion to 46 homes over 3–5 years); MiHaven Training (a Registered Training Organisation offering Certificate II in Hospitality and Certificate III in Individual Support); and SkyHaven (a $60M, 186-unit short-term accommodation project at Cairns Airport, structured as an unlisted REIT with a $30M hard cap, to be operated by Mandala Hotels and Resorts). MiHaven Living, a 131-room student/shared-living portfolio, was divested to Redhill Hospitality Group in January 2026 to recycle capital into higher-priority initiatives.
The company's underlying technology centres on sustainable construction tailored to Tropical North Queensland, including Category 5+ cyclone-rated structural design, minimum 7-Star Energy Rating with solar hot water, locally sourced materials, and specialised SDA features (High Physical Support, Improved Liveability, and Fully Accessible design categories with wireless 4G nurse call systems, NDIS-approved elevators, and QFES-approved fire sprinklers). MiHaven was the first Australian construction company and property developer to achieve B Corp certification (2017) and holds NDIS Provider Registration (#4-KUCS98R).
MiHaven generates revenue through one-time property sales to investors and owner-occupiers, managed SDA housing under NDIS, an unlisted REIT capital raise for SkyHaven, vocational training fees via the RTO, and historically through shared-living accommodation (now divested). Distribution is primarily direct: enterprise field sales for property investors and NDIS participants, event-driven investor information sessions for SkyHaven's sophisticated-investor audience, and partnerships with employers and community housing providers for training and social housing delivery. Cumulative project value exceeds $200M, with active development pipelines across Cairns and Far North Queensland.
