About Us

Our Mission

To lead the development and management of high-quality, income-producing properties in emerging markets, leveraging innovation, transparency, and strategic partnerships to create sustainable wealth and enrich communities.

Our Expertise

With decades of experience, our vertically-integrated team has the knowledge and skills to identify, acquire, and manage multifamily assets. We focus entirely on missing middle multifamily in secondary markets, bringing much needed supply to these markets.

Our Approach

Being a vertically integrated real estate company, we acquire underutilized properties, re-zone, build, stabilize, and manage them over the entire real estate lifecycle.

Meet our President

Brad Cartier has been investing in real estate since his early 20s. Following a 20-year career in the Canadian military and government, Brad decided to retire and pursue real estate development and investing full-time. In 2017 Brad founded Blair Capital alongside several strategic investors to fill a gap in our market: missing middle multifamily. Now, Blair Capital is a vertically-integrated leader in missing middle multifamily development in Ontario; acquiring, building, stabilizing, and managing these assets over the long-term. Brad also consults for various property technology companies, helping Blair Capital bridge asset management with innovative technology solutions.
