What Building Development Group Pty does

Building Development Group Pty Ltd (BDG) is a Perth-based, privately-held property development, architectural, and construction firm founded in 2001 by Managing Director Greg Moore, a dual-qualified Architect and Builder. The group operates through its parent entity BDG and a wholly-owned construction subsidiary, Building Development Group Constructions Pty Ltd (BDGC), supported by a core team of 12 staff covering design, drafting, project management, contract administration, and civil/infrastructure management. BDG delivers turn-key development solutions across three integrated service lines — architecture and design, project management and construction costing, and construction — supplemented by specialist offerings in NDIS Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) housing, Livable Housing Assessment certification, feasibility studies, and modular transportable construction for the retirement and lifestyle sector. The company's product portfolio is organized into three sub-brands: Land Sub-divisions (e.g., Forrest Edge Dalyellup 550+ lots, Oakleigh Grove 100+ lots, Margaret River Lifestyle Village 91 lots), Residential (bespoke homes, multi-residential apartments, townhouses), and Commercial (office, retail, industrial, mixed-use developments).

BDG monetizes through four revenue streams: outright project purchases where it assumes development risk for property appreciation returns; joint venture partnerships contributing development expertise in exchange for shared returns; fee-for-service architecture, construction management, and consulting engagements; and direct construction services delivered via design-and-construct or tender-and-construction models. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales — direct engagement with property developers, commercial owners, and government entities — supplemented by website portfolio showcasing and industry referrals built over 16+ years. Pricing is project-specific and quote-based, varying by scope, scale, and complexity, with multi-year contract cadences typical for subdivision and retirement village projects. Since inception, BDG has delivered projects totaling over $300m in value across Western Australia and broader Australia, including 150+ dwellings and approximately $30m in private client land/construction work in the past five years, with no external institutional funding or M&A activity disclosed.

Core offering

Building Development Group provides integrated property development, architectural design, and construction services spanning feasibility, design, documentation, construction, and project handover. The firm operates as both developer and contractor, delivering turn-key packages for land sub-divisions, commercial buildings, residential developments, and specialist disability accommodation. Services are delivered in-house by a multidisciplinary team led by a Managing Director who holds dual architect and builder qualifications.

Product overview

Building Development Group is a property development, architectural, and construction company offering an integrated suite of services organized around three core product lines: Architecture and Design (planning, design, documentation), Project Management and Construction Costing (end-to-end project leadership and cost estimation), and Construction (turn-key commercial and residential building).

The company operates two primary sub-brands—Residential (single/multi-residential dwellings and bespoke homes) and Commercial (office, retail, industrial developments)—alongside Land Sub-divisions (estate development). The portfolio is unified by BDG's vertically integrated approach, where the same team handles concept through handover, and BDG often acts as both client and contractor.

Direct peers

• ABN Group: Western Australia's largest construction and property development group, spanning residential home building, commercial construction, and apartment development. Directly comparable as a WA-based integrated builder with residential and commercial project delivery like BDG.
• Dale Alcock Homes: WA-based home builder with project home, custom home, and apartment capabilities. Comparable as a WA-headquartered residential builder with design-and-construct model serving similar developer and homeowner segments.
• Summit Homes Group: Western Australian family-owned home builder offering residential construction, apartment, and sub-division work. Highly comparable given its WA focus, range of residential typologies, and integrated design approach.
• AVJennings: ASX-listed residential land developer and home builder active in master-planned communities. Comparable because BDG's large estate projects (Forrest Edge, Oakleigh Grove) operate in the same land-subdivision and housing delivery category.
• Cedar Woods Properties: Australian residential developer delivering master-planned communities and medium-density housing in WA and other states. Directly comparable for BDG's multi-lot subdivision and residential construction work.
• Peet Limited: Listed land developer creating residential communities across Australia. Comparable to BDG's end-to-end estate development model combining subdivision, civil works, and home delivery.
• Simonds Homes: National home builder delivering project homes and low-rise multi-residential dwellings. Comparable residential typologies and design-and-construct customer engagements as BDG.

Broad incumbents

• BGC Australia: Diversified WA construction group covering building products, residential construction (Homebuyers Centre), and commercial property development. Compares as a broader incumbent competing in WA residential and commercial construction.
• Metricon Homes: Australia's largest volume home builder with national reach across project home, apartment, and townhouse categories. Compares to BDG as a much larger broad incumbent against which BDG competes for residential construction mandates.
• Stockland: One of Australia's largest diversified property developers with major residential master-planned community portfolio. Comparable as a broad incumbent in land subdivision and retirement living — a category where BDG also operates.
