We create homes that people are proud of
Operating for over 30 years, Rivergum is proudly the 4th leading national builder and Rivergum Projects is South Australia’s leading medium-density residential developer, with a new home pipeline of more than $500M to deliver in secured projects across metropolitan Adelaide. The business delivers a wide diversity of projects ranging from Rivergum owned, joint-venture and strategic build partner developments, and enjoys strong relationships with a range of Tier 1, Private, Government and Social Housing Development Partners.
