What Burbank Group does

Burbank Group is a privately held, family-owned Australian building and property group founded in 1983 by Eddie Sanfilippo and now led by his son Jarrod Sanfilippo as Group CEO. The group operates 13 interrelated businesses across approximately 30 offices and 700+ employees, covering the full eastern-seaboard building industry value chain: Burbank Homes (volume home building across VIC, QLD, NSW, ACT, SA), National Pacific Properties (land development and master-planned communities), Burbank Urban (townhouse and mixed-use projects), Beacon Building Services (maintenance, refurbishment, fit-out for residential and commercial clients), Dynamic Trade Solutions (electrical and tech fit-out for clients including Telstra and Crown Resorts), Storage Box (self-storage and removals), Livi Lending (mortgage broking across 50+ lenders), Burbank Air Services (helicopter and jet charter), and Digital Minds Software Solutions (internal digital tooling).

The group monetises through a mix of one-time construction revenue (home building, urban projects, storage), transaction-based revenue (land development, mortgage broking), and professional services revenue (building maintenance, trade fit-outs, aviation). Customer acquisition is direct-to-consumer via display homes, a national phone line (13 BURBANK), local offices, and individual subsidiary websites. Proprietary customer-facing technology includes MyPlace Tracker (build status and document portal), HomeX (3D visualization with over one million home combinations and nine style options, including VR headset availability), MyLand (24-hour land development updates), and Builders Portal (document management). Burbank is Great Place To Work certified and operates with a horizontal segmentation approach spanning residential buyers, property developers, commercial clients, and finance customers.
