Info & FAQ
Every time we begin a new Fortis development, we’re not just thinking about the beautiful property we’ll build. We’re thinking about the community of people who will one day call it ‘home’. Our personal approach to the development process is guided by our customers, from beginning to end.
We’re here to help... every step of the way.
Customer testimonials
“We were both sceptical and unsure, as we had never purchased this way before. Many people press comments about being mad if you bought off-the-plan.”
Andrew & Di, Balmoral residents
“We feel like we’ve been part of the journey the whole way through. The number of our friends that shake their heads in disbelief and say ‘do you really get that information?'”
Steve & Leonie, The Benson purchasers
“The ground floor garden was a key criteria for me. With two small dogs and a passion for gardening, this property offered a well proportioned outdoor space, unlike other 2 bedroom apartments that mostly have balconies or small courtyards lacking light.”
Wendy, 232 Wattletree resident
“Even our friends who work in the industry have commented on how ‘high-spec’ the apartment is, more than they were expecting.”
Brad & Brendan, East Grove residents
“Things that people take for granted are considered here. The benchtops feel solid, the storage in the bathroom is ample, the second bedroom is positioned away from where people eat. Just quality, solid and well thought out.”
Edwina, Balmoral resident
FAQ
Construction & quality
How sustainable are your developments?
From harvesting rainwater, to solar panels and electric vehicle charging points, sustainability is a key design consideration of every Fortis property. As Associate Director Patrick Baldock points out, we’re always looking to reduce the carbon footprint of our developments—before, during and after construction.
How do you select a site?
When it comes to acquiring a new site, we look for a list of Fortis non-negotiables. These include walkability to essential amenity, strong transport connections and the ability to be boutique in nature. It’s the reason why, as Director Charles Mellick points out, the vast majority of sites we review never make the cut.
How will I be kept informed about the construction of my apartment?
At Fortis, we pride ourselves on bringing a uniquely personal approach to everything we do. As Senior Development Manager Michael Clark explains, all purchasers are assigned a dedicated Development Manager who provides detailed monthly construction updates, and is someone they can contact directly with questions at any time throughout the process.
How do you control the quality of what's delivered?
Quality underpins everything we do at Fortis, from the partners we choose to weekly progress meetings on-site. We share a passion for creating high quality, well detailed buildings, and know we’re only as good as the last project we’ve delivered, as Development Manager Shaun Mets explains.
How do you choose your construction partners?
Director Charles Mellick talks about how vital it is to have a strong relationship between the developer and builder, in order to be able to deliver projects to an exceptional standard. That’s why, when it comes to selecting the construction partners Fortis works with, we look for continuity and trust.
