Taking residential and senior living developments from vision to velocity across Australia.
Who we are
Channel was founded in 2015 by Susan Duffy — an intuitive property strategist with a reputation for bringing genuine commercial acumen to the industry. Having worked alongside Australia’s leading developers on residential and senior living projects of every type and scale, Susan identified a persistent gap in the market: the need for strategy, research, and marketing to work as one — with sales and development on the same page.
What followed was a team of hard-working, sharp-thinking property specialists who are as comfortable in the boardroom as they are on the ground. Channel isn’t a generalist agency. We are a specialist advisory business — built specifically for the property industry, and focused entirely on results.
Today, Channel works alongside leading property groups, property developers, development directors, retirement and aged care operators on projects across Australia — from large-scale residential masterplans to retirement living, aged care, over 50s lifestyle communities, build-to-rent, high-density apartments, and beyond.
But Channel’s role goes beyond individual projects. We also support development businesses themselves — helping leadership teams strengthen sales and marketing capability, operational frameworks and portfolio performance as they scale.
How we work
Channel is typically engaged at moments that carry the greatest commercial weight — when a developer is assessing an opportunity, launching a project, accelerating sales performance, or strengthening internal capability for the next stage of growth.
We combine rigorous quantitative and qualitative research with strategic advisory and hands-on execution. Our work is designed to move seamlessly from insight to action — ensuring recommendations translate into measurable outcomes.
Every engagement begins with a clear understanding of the project, the market and the commercial objectives behind it. From there we design tailored solutions that align research, positioning, sales performance and operational capability.
We are measured by the success of the developments and organisations we support.
Senior expertise, engaged when it matters most.
We don’t need to be
there for every step.
Just the ones that count.
