Join Our Team at Strategic Group

About Us
At Strategic Group, our purpose is simple: Learning. Growing. Having Fun. We bring this ethos to life by innovatively envisioning, creating, owning, and operating real estate that transforms spaces and redefines possibilities.
As a fully integrated real estate company, we specialize in owning, managing, leasing, developing, and re-developing properties. Our entrepreneurial spirit and innovative thinking have made us a Canadian industry leader in office-to-residential conversions, completing more successful conversions than anyone else in the country. This focus is a driving force in our development business and reflects our commitment to creatively reimagining what’s possible.
Our real estate portfolio spans high-end residential developments and commercial properties. Beyond real estate, our business interests include corporate finance and other industries, enabling us to deliver diverse and impactful solutions for our tenants, partners, and communities.
Guided by our mantra, “Creating value others can’t, by seeing what others don’t,” we take pride in crafting unique solutions that leave a lasting legacy.
Following this mantra, we have a unique in-house legal department that conducts all of our litigation matters without outside counsel. Our in-house litigation group is involved in matters that range from common collections and slip-and-fall claims to complex insurance claims and regulatory hearings.
