About Us

At MTM Group, we are a versatile property development and investment firm that specializes in both residential and commercial properties. Our approach to property investment is guided by a unique mantra: we never develop anything that we wouldn't be happy to hold ourselves. While our projects are typically developed with the intention to sell, we prioritize quality and long-term value in every endeavor. We don't confine ourselves to a specific geographic area or market; instead, we pursue opportunities that make commercial sense, no matter where they arise. Our investment strategy is rooted in synergy. We seek out opportunities that complement our existing investments, allowing us to add value across multiple projects and industries. By avoiding a siloed approach, we create non-linear opportunities that benefit both our firm and our investors. Our diverse portfolio reflects this philosophy, encompassing not just property development but also strategic investments in various sectors. We are proud to have exclusive access to some of the most sought-after projects, thanks to our expansive network and industry expertise. Key investments include the Otter Group, Ahi Collective, technology ventures like Queenstown Digital Studio, and F&B businesses. In all our ventures, we ensure that we have a personal stake, aligning our success with that of our investors. At MTM Group, our commitment to excellence and innovation drives everything we do, as we continue to build and invest in projects that stand the test of time.
