The goal was for Carta to specialise in high quality, small-to-medium residential projects in inner suburban Melbourne.

Concentrating on key factors such as location, quality construction, and affordability, CEO Paul Hayward has a hands-on approach to all aspects of each project, with a personal commitment to deliver above and beyond buyer expectations.

In more recent years, son Ryan Hayward has joined the company, and now plays a key role in all Carta Projects, with a concentration on Tasmania and most particularly our current luxury Development - Grace – in Sandy Bay.
