It is this prevailing commitment to the highest possible standards that has directly led to over 25,000 people currently enjoying homes built by Deicorp.

Deicorp was founded in 1999 and is a privately-owned integrated construction and development company. Based in Sydney, Australia, Deicorp has so far delivered 8,000 apartments and over 150,000 square metres of retail and commercial space across more than 40 suburbs in the city. As Sydney’s leading builder of transport-connected developments, Deicorp is currently building around 3,000 apartments across nine projects.

“We bring peace of mind to buying property. For over two decades now we’ve been dedicated to helping people achieve their goals through property and delivering an inspiring way to live. We’re here for our customers,” affirms Furolo.

For 23 years, Deicorp has been operating as a privately-owned property development and construction group for residential, commercial and retail real estate. The company delivers significant residential development to areas of growth across Sydney.

addition to the Sydney skyline and aims to bring a sense of calmness to the hustle and bustle of city living.

Becoming Sydney’s prime developer has been made possible due to several key factors at the core of Deicorp’s company values.

“We’re a values-driven business that uses our success to ensure we deliver great outcomes in the communities we’re building in. For example, we have recently been acknowledged for our leadership in contributing to an affordable housing project supporting the local indigenous community in Redfern.

“Parallel to this, Deicorp is also completely committed to transport-ori ented projects. Over the past decade, the average distance from a new project to the nearest train station has been less than 250 metres. This focus on convenience and investment security through superior site selection means Deicorp projects are always found in the best locations,” adds Furolo.

ENABLING LASTING INFRASTRUCTURE

Deicorp is embracing the environmental benefits of delivering the highest levels of efficiency and sustainability in its buildings. The latest projects are all being built to a minimum of five-star Green Star Standard which covers the construction methods, materials and operation of the buildings.

For purchasers, this means more efficient and cost-effective wholeof-life and operational costs. For the environment, this lessens the impact of Deicorp’s projects.

In terms of adding value through mixed-use developments, the positioning of amenities has greatly enhanced urban development across Australia.

“Our focus on transport connection and amenity provides enormous benefits for purchasers and the broader community. Living so close to transport and the village

precincts we create reduces the need for private vehicle movements for day-to-day activities. This then reduces congestion and pollution, and creates local employment centres that contribute to an area’s economic wellbeing,” explains Furolo.

“All of this improves the quality of life for residents and the broader neighbourhood.”

ENGAGING WITH THE COMMUNITY

Deicorp has a long history of generosity and supporting great causes. The company endeavours to make a difference by being genuinely engaged with the communities it works in through a combination of sponsorships and donations.

“Over the years, we have been a major sponsor of Camp Quality and helped raise millions of dollars for children impacted by serious illnesses,” says Furolo.

More recently, Deicorp has sponsored local community organisations and neighbourhood centres, which coordinate vital services and capacity-building projects needed within local communities.

“Our funding of these groups supports programmes including homework and tutoring for disadvantaged students, transport services to keep the elderly, frail and disabled connected with friends and services, as well as community events and festivals to keep people connected,” he continues.

As well as sponsoring and supporting local initiatives, Deicorp’s development projects aim to add significant value to the areas where they are constructed.

“First and foremost, we build homes. Within Sydney, for a range of reasons, there has been a persistent and ongoing undersupply of housing for more than 20 years. Our work has provided thousands of opportunities for young couples and families to

become homeowners,” details Furolo.

Alongside this, Deicorp offers quality of life. This involves delivering villages that bring homes and convenient retail areas together to give access to amenities and an optimal lifestyle. Deicorp also provides jobs and services including childcare centres, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, pharmacies and medical centres.

“Additionally, because we always build close to rail, our developments help reduce congestion, bring convenient access to jobs and services, and help create vibrant precincts.”

Looking ahead to a prosperous future, Deicorp is focused on securing

the best sites possible across Sydney, building high-quality residential and mixed-use projects and providing affordable, desirable and stylish homes for homeowners and investors.

“We simply plan to design, develop and deliver the homes that Sydney wants and needs,” concludes Furolo enthusiastically.
