Challenge accepted
—opportunity seized.
Over 25 years our growth and success has been driven by a simple understanding—that anything worth accomplishing is necessarily challenging. To this end, we see challenges for the opportunities they inherently are, actively seek them out, and capably see them through.
OVERVIEW
Founded in 1994 as a modest developer of single-family homes, today Isle of Mann represents a vertically integrated commercial and residential property group. We leverage our experience and deep knowledge of real estate fundamentals to competently execute across the full spectrum of development, investment, and asset management.
IOM is a real estate firm
—from the ground, up.
PHILOSOPHY
Isle of Mann’s reputation is built on a foundation of hard work, integrity and care. Our commitment to upholding this standard is reflected in our active involvement at each stage of the real estate investment and development life-cycle—this ensures our core values and principles are employed throughout, and the IOM mark is associated with only the most discerning standards of execution and achievement.
PROCESS
Work hard,
sweat the details,
& always trust your gut.
METHODOLOGY
We are systematic and purposeful in our approach without suppressing our instincts. We mitigate risk through rigorous due diligence and meticulous research and analysis. We are Isle of Mann, and this is what we do.
Development
Real estate development is Isle of Mann’s core competency. Our project teams consist of established professionals that are equipped with the critical thinking and creative input that generate value within every phase of a development.
Vision
Each IOM project is guided by a cohesive vision that is developed collaboratively with municipalities to ensure a thoughtful alignment between local market conditions and city planning. We advance projects of scale across Canada that promote lasting socio-economic infrastructure and community growth.
Form & Function
We take immense responsibility in our role as contributors to the built environment. This pride is reflected in our acute attention to aesthetic design, while maximizing the efficiency of our site layouts and floor plans.
Quality
As the general contractor on many of our projects, IOM developments benefit from direct oversight by our construction team. Our methodology is informed by more than two decades of construction experience and a meticulous quality control protocol to maintain the highest standards of materials and skilled labour.
Investment
With an active investment portfolio across Canada and the Western United States, we know that superior cash flows begin with superior real estate. Whether it be debt or equity financing, or property acquisition, our Investments division works thoroughly to ensure our stakeholders’ financial interests are cared for with the utmost integrity and aptitude.
Insight & Execution
In the ultra-competitive environment for AAA properties, our market insight and network of trusted professionals allow us to source off-market opportunities for strategic investment. We leverage our superior purchasing and lending power to swiftly execute on exceptional property acquisitions at below-market pricing, or to secure senior or subordinated debt on high quality real estate with above-market returns.
Analysis
Through detailed research of markets and financial inputs, every investment decision is informed by an in-depth cash flow analysis under multiple scenarios. Our assessments are based on a foundation of conservative assumptions and market projections, while identifying a clearly articulated exit strategy.
Due Diligence
Our Transaction Management team consists of professionals in real estate law, corporate finance and investment analysis. Our systematic approach to evaluating acquisition and financing opportunities contributes toward our portfolio of quality assets, while giving capital partners the confidence to know their financial interests are in competent hands.
Asset Management
From standard management practices of commercial and residential properties, to more specialized asset-class operations, vigilant oversight is a strict prerequisite to unlocking real estate’s full cash flow potential. Our Asset Management division regularly monitor portfolio performance and continuously explores means to maximize value from each of our assets.
Leasing
We work with credible candidates to ensure an equitable arrangement between landlord and tenant, while maintaining terms that enhance asset profitability and growth. We work with our commercial tenants to generate value for their businesses, and continuously explore avenues to enhance quality of living for our residential tenants.
Operations
IOM assets are supplemented by attentive property management services and prudent financing arrangements to leverage cash flow. Through regular maintenance of a property’s physical and financial health, we extract full value-generating potential from our portfolio of quality assets.
Business Development
By leveraging our existing infrastructure, we efficiently operate businesses that rely on heavy utilization of real estate. Through strategic partnerships with top brands in the hospitality, senior care and self-storage sectors, we are experienced in developing businesses that are rooted in specialized CRE asset classes.
Do good,
be better,
& stay humble.
