UrbanGrowth NSW, the trading name of Landcom and previously known as the Land Commission of New South Wales, is a corporation owned by the Government of New South Wales with responsibility for government-funded property development in the state of New South Wales, Australia. The corporation acts as the master developer on complex urban transformation projects, which contain government land and support critical infrastructure and economic clusters.

The acting chief executive officer of the corporation is Michael Brodie who reports to a Board led by John Brogden AM, the non-executive Chairman. The Board is responsible to a portfolio minister, which is the Minister for Planning, presently the Hon. Anthony Roberts MP, and two shareholder ministers, the Treasurer, presently the Hon. Dominic Perrottet MP, and the Minister for Finance, Services and Property, presently the Hon. Victor Dominello MP.

The Land Commission of New South Wales was established in 1975 following an election promise by Premier Wran to establish a government agency that would provide affordable, fully serviced land on the fringe of Sydney for purchase. The Commission played a leading role in the development of outer suburban areas of Sydney such as Campbelltown and Penrith since the late 1970s.
