History

The company was founded in 1895 as Peet and Bastow by James Thomas 'JT' Peet (1862-1935).4 James Peet was a surveyor and draughtsman who left England for Australia in 1888. After a short time in Queensland, he moved to Victoria where he established a real estate partnership with architect Austin Bastow in Melbourne. In the early 1890s Peet and Bastow turned their attention west, and in 1895 James Peet moved to Western Australia and established Peet and Company Ltd.3

In the late 1990s Peet and Co bought its first property in Victoria. In 2002, the company continued its eastern expansion buying its first property in Queensland. In 2004, Peet purchased its first piece of land in New South Wales and in August of that year listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (now the Australian Securities Commission) later in the same year.

In 2006, the company changed its name from Peet & Co to Peet Limited.4

In 2015, in its 120th year Peet Limited finalised the full acquisition of property group CIC Australia which expanded the company’s reach to all mainland Australian states and territories.5

Business

The Peet Group is involved in four main areas of the property development industry:

  • Development of residential land estates.
  • Development of completed homes, medium density townhouses and apartments.
  • Development of commercial property such as shopping centre and community facilities.
  • Provision of property investment options in residential communities and masterplanned communities via land syndication.

Peet has one of the biggest residential landbanks of any ASX listed property group with a gross development value of approximately $14 billion (AUD).7 As at 30 June 2018, the Group managed and marketed a land bank of more than 49,000 lots in the growth corridors of major mainland Australian cities.8

The Peet Group develops, manages and markets more than 60 projects, either as owned projects or in partnership with private and public sector. It has more than 70 industry awards for urban planning and design, environmental management, community development and affordability.9

Peet pioneered retail land syndication in Australia. Peet’s Funds Management division manages more than 20 syndicates.10

gollark: Well, yes, but they're byte sequences.
gollark: I mean, it's better than C and stuff, and I wouldn't mind writing simple apps in it.
gollark: Speaking specifically about the error handling, it may be "simple", but it's only "simple" in the sense of "the compiler writers do less work". It's very easy to mess it up by forgetting the useless boilerplate line somewhere, or something like that.
gollark: Speaking more generally than the type system, Go is just really... anti-abstraction... with, well, the gimped type system, lack of much metaprogramming support, and weird special cases, and poor error handling.
gollark: - They may be working on them, but they initially claimed that they weren't necessary and they don't exist now. Also, I don't trust them to not do them wrong.- Ooookay then- Well, generics, for one: they *kind of exist* in that you can have generic maps, channels, slices, and arrays, but not anything else. Also this (https://fasterthanli.me/blog/2020/i-want-off-mr-golangs-wild-ride/), which is mostly about the file handling not being good since it tries to map on concepts which don't fit. Also channels having weird special syntax. Also `for` and `range` and `new` and `make` basically just being magic stuff which do whatever the compiler writers wanted with no consistency- see above- Because there's no generic number/comparable thing type. You would need to use `interface{}` or write a new function (with identical code) for every type you wanted to compare- You can change a signature somewhere and won't be alerted, but something else will break because the interface is no longer implemented- They are byte sequences. https://blog.golang.org/strings.- It's not. You need to put `if err != nil { return err }` everywhere.
