we make places.

St. Bourke is a property development company primarily focused on residential communities and commercial assets. Our passion is creating thriving communities and driving significant value for our clients, partners, and community stakeholders.

St. Bourke History

St. Bourke was originally established by Drapac Capital Partners (DCP), an international property investment firm, to provide asset management & development services for their extensive U.S. property portfolio. Because of our unique origins, we view every project through an investment lens and navigate the crucial balance between developing great places & delivering commercially viable projects.

Since launching as an independent organization in 2017, St. Bourke has continued to provide comprehensive development services to DCP’s sizeable property portfolio as well as a variety of private and institutional clients ranging from private landowners to national homebuilders.

Our People

St. Bourke has established a high-performing team of property and development professionals with extensive experience and qualifications in planning and design, engineering, development, property economics and market research, finance, and marketing. Individually and collectively, the St. Bourke team has an impressive track record of delivering and managing great places, both residential and commercial, and to-date has designed and delivered more than 30,000 residential lots across the U.S. and Australia.

In addition to our in-house team of experts, St. Bourke has developed a wide network of industry connections and works collaboratively with local consultants to provide real-time, market-specific insights for every project we manage to ensure successful outcomes.

Our Purpose

What is placemaking?
Placemaking is the process of creating quality
places that people care about and want to be in,
now and in the future.

St. Bourke’s approach to community development begins with establishing a comprehensive project vision that considers the expectations of the stakeholders, the site’s physical features and constraints, the project’s market context, and the community targeted demographic profile. Our project visions are supported by robust market analysis and rigorous financial feasibility analysis to ensure that our development projects are both sustainable and commercially viable.

The St. Bourke team works collaboratively with the best local designers, relevant experts, and contractors to design & develop great places. From concept design through horizontal development and full-scale construction, our team has the capability and capacity to manage a development from start-to-finish, and our suite of project management tools and practices ensure that projects are delivered on-time, on-budget, and to the highest quality standards.
