Reviews
Client Success Is Our
Greatest Achievement
The property we acquired had serious deferred maintenance and construction deficiencies that the previous owner had ignored. OL Plazas identified the full scope quickly, tendered the remediation work competitively, and delivered on time with no cost surprises. Their construction oversight is something most property managers simply don’t offer.
Marcus Thibodeau, Property Developer, Hamilton, ON
We inherited a partially vacant plaza with no background in commercial real estate. OL Plazas renegotiated two below-market leases, filled the vacant unit in four months, and built a five-year capital plan so we understood exactly what was coming. Two years later, NOI has improved considerably and we finally know where the asset is headed.
Sofia & Ryan Marchetti, Plaza Co-Owners, Scarborough, ON
I’ve worked with three management companies over twenty years. OL Plazas is the first where maintenance gets resolved before tenants escalate it, reports arrive on time every month, and lease renewals are handled proactively. I have four properties with them now. My only job is reviewing the monthly report.
Gord Velthuizen, Long-Term Landlord, Mississauga, ON
Moving from commercial, I didn’t know what I didn’t know. OL Plazas walked me through underwriting, lease abstracts, and market comparables, and talked me out of the first property I wanted to buy. We found a better one three months later. That kind of honest advice is rare and exactly what I needed.
Rosalyn Whitfield, First-Time Commercial Investor, Oakville, ON
I had an underperforming plaza I’d been sitting on for years. OL Plazas assessed the repositioning potential, presented a realistic redevelopment plan, not a sales pitch, and managed the full construction phase on budget and on schedule. The property’s value has increased substantially. I’ve since handed them two more assets.
Danielle Marcoux, Portfolio Owner, Mississauga, ON
OL Plazas handled full due diligence on my Vaughan industrial acquisition and flagged two structural deficiencies the seller hadn’t disclosed, which we used to renegotiate the price. Post-closing, they built a three-year capital plan around our tenant lease cycles. Eighteen months in, the asset is performing above our original underwriting projections.
Colin Abernethy, Real Estate Investor, Vaughan, ON
We were sitting at 61% occupancy when we brought OL Plazas in. They restructured our tenant mix, brought in a proper anchor, and got us to 94% within six months. What stood out was that they approached leasing like owners, not brokers. Operations have been smooth ever since. I get reports showing problems were handled, not calls telling me about them.
