We Protect Capital First.
Then We Grow It.

What We Do

Equivest originates and manages structured development investments across Ontario. Every deal follows the same disciplined framework: conservative analysis, milestone-based funding, and active oversight.

  • Ontario-focused development equity in supply-constrained markets
  • Capital structured and released in stages tied to verified progress
  • Principals invest alongside every partner. Incentives aligned by design

IN PLAIN ENGLISH

“If the downside doesn’t hold up, we don’t do the deal.”

Every investment is modelled as if the economy worsens.

Only deals that survive stress testing move forward.

Conservative Analysis

If the downside breaks the deal, we walk away

Every deal stress-tested against recession assumptions

Higher rates, lower rents, slower absorption scenarios modelled
