The Interview - Craig Carracher AM, The Living Company

Craig Carracher AM is one of the most influential figures in Australian property, investment and purpose-built accommodation. As co-founder of Scape Australia and The Living Company, Craig has helped build one of the country’s most significant residential living platforms — spanning student accommodation, build-to-rent, affordable housing and retirement living. But the story begins well before Scape. From his early career in law, to working inside Consolidated Press Holdings, to identifying the opportunity in student accommodation before it became an institutional asset class in Australia, Craig’s journey is one of conviction, timing, capital, partnership and long-term thinking. In this episode of The Interview Australia, Craig Carracher AM sits down for a wide-ranging conversation on the making of Scape, the rise of purpose-built student accommodation, the future of housing in Australia, the role of institutional capital, and what it takes to build a platform of genuine scale. This is a conversation about entrepreneurship, judgement, risk, resilience, and the discipline required to see an opportunity before the market fully understands it.
