Our Business

Our history

South Haven Group has its origins in 30 years’ experience in the Australian property market.

South Haven Group grew from a shared passion for property and a hands-on approach shaped over more than 40 years in the Australian market.

Established in 1986 by brothers Ian and Gary Pratt, the business began by investing in high-quality commercial, residential, and retail assets. From the outset, we took a long-term view recognising potential where others did not and thoughtfully transforming overlooked properties into places people genuinely wanted to be

As the portfolio expanded, so did the business. Construction, maintenance, and design capabilities were brought in-house to ensure greater care, consistency, and quality across every project.

Today, South Haven Group continues to build on these strong foundations, creating enduring places and delivering long-term value for the business and its investment partners.
