A disciplined, fundamentals-driven approach to acquiring industrial real estate across Western Canada's highest-growth markets.
Looking at our history and the acquisitions of assets we have acquired, we can't help notice that every building has a story in terms of the added value we brought to it. Being selective and having a solid group of analysts to evaluate every deal, coupled with off-market opportunities, has been the secret to our success.
Three core pillars guide every acquisition decision and portfolio management action at InvestPlus Industrial REIT.
We target and acquire accretive industrial properties where other public or private REITs and companies don't compete — due to size constraints, lack of local presence, or differing investment criteria. This gives InvestPlus Industrial REIT access to off-market opportunities with superior value creation potential.
Our experienced management team oversees every stage of the property lifecycle — from acquisition and tenant relations to capital improvements and lease renewals. Efficient operations protect investor capital and maximise net operating income across the portfolio.
The result of disciplined acquisition and professional management is consistent, superior quarterly distributions to our unit-holders. We have never missed a distribution payment and currently manage $118M in assets across 20 buildings and 750,000 sq ft of industrial space.
Our three-step process ensures every property we acquire creates measurable value for our investors.
Let's be clear: we don't buy "western Canadian" real estate. We buy assets in specific geographical locations within Western Canada that show clear signs of a growing economy, job growth, and growing population.
It starts with economic fundamentals. By knowing where GDP growth is — which begins with investment dollars from companies or government — there is a strong probability that jobs will be created. As jobs are created, population growth increases in that geographical area, which increases demand for rentals and housing.
The increase in rental values increases building values. New businesses migrate to those areas and existing businesses flourish as a result of increased demand. Combine this knowledge and timing with the ability to acquire industrial properties and you have a recipe that will see asset values increase due to both management's value creation and market upswing.
Government and corporate investment dollars flow into high-growth markets, signalling economic expansion.
New jobs attract workers to the area, driving population growth and increasing demand for industrial space.
Growing population and business activity increases demand for commercial and industrial space, pushing rents higher.
Higher rents translate directly into higher building values, generating capital appreciation alongside income for investors.
Our strategy is simple in concept but powerful in execution — refined through experience and tested across multiple economic cycles.
"While a simple concept, it's a learned skill from experience in managing over $118M in assets across 20 buildings and riding through multiple economic cycles — both up and down."

Disclaimer: This communication is meant to help you learn about industrial real estate, the philosophy InvestPlus REIT uses to acquire buildings, and the criteria we apply when evaluating opportunities. It is for information purposes only and is not, and under no circumstances should be construed as, an invitation to make an investment in InvestPlus REIT. A few things you should know: investing in InvestPlus REIT Units involves risk. There is currently no secondary market through which the Units may be sold, and no assurance one will develop. A return on an investment in REIT Units is not comparable to a return on a fixed-income security. The recovery of an initial investment is at risk, and any anticipated return is based on a number of performance assumptions. While InvestPlus REIT intends to make regular distributions of available cash to Unit holders, those distributions may be reduced or suspended.

FAQ
Operational real estate refers to income-producing properties where returns come not only from ownership, but from how the asset is leased, managed, improved, and repositioned. In industrial portfolios, that can include tenant mix, occupancy, capital projects, and value-add leasing strategies that increase cash flow and long-term asset value.
Operational excellence in industrial real estate means running properties to maximize durable income and protect capital — strong leasing, disciplined expenses, proactive maintenance, and targeted improvements. InvestPlus focuses on acquiring accretive industrial assets in Western Canada and improving performance through hands-on asset management.
InvestPlus seeks industrial properties in high-growth Western Canadian markets, often with room to improve occupancy, rents, or functionality. Value is created by pairing disciplined acquisitions with operational improvements that support quarterly distributions and long-term NAV growth for eligible investors.
