Melbourne placemaking

Thriving communities, not just buildings.

We leverage data to create vibrant places that address people’s changing lifestyles, help entrepreneurial retail businesses succeed, and deliver on commercial imperatives for property developers and landlords.

Location Intelligence

In partnership with BlueRock’s industry-leading PropTech business, propella.ai, we deliver new insights on placemaking opportunities through cutting-edge data intelligence. This includes market assessment of the retail opportunities and threats, as well as incredible insights into the behaviours, characteristics and attitudes of workers, residents and visitors.

Testimonials

We love what we do, and apparently so do our clients.

We have been with BlueRock since it started, and they have always provided us with accounting services and assisted us to manage other things outside of our business. After almost 50 years in business, our affairs have become quite complex. We recently worked through our financial affairs and the re-writing of our wills, guided by Adam Morse and Ryan Williams. Getting a will right and managing the financial requirements to make it work properly is no simple task. The fact that all the information was already within BlueRock made discussing it with Adam and Ryan easier. The outcome is a very thorough, simple will and estate plan, which is, without doubt, the best result we have ever had.

North Star Projects is a builder of quality residential homes. Our business is growing quickly and ready to move to the next level of operation at the time we engaged with BlueRock Accounting. Our growth required a comprehensive review of past business performance and a realistic mapping of a plan for future growth. The BlueRock team assembled the key financial information and delivered it back to our management team in a way that facilitated our thinking about the strategic direction for the business moving forward. The process has been exciting and reassuring at the same time. It has not been all about the big picture however and the BlueRock team are very available to help us grease the wheels of day-to-day operations and support our staff to remain in control while taking advantage of new opportunities that arise. The advice, information and tools provided by the BlueRock team have delivered practical support and generated enthusiasm about our future prospects.
