Where Atlantic
Canada's commercial
deals begin
We are a private, by-application network of active commercial real estate investors, owners and other real estate professionals.
They kept asking to meet each other. So we built the room.
What is Commercial Group
The Commercial Group is a private, by-application network of active commercial real estate investors and other real estate professionals across Atlantic Canada, with invite-only evenings.
Who it's for
Built for the people who own the buildings.
The room is built for active investors and owners across Atlantic Canada, from a first twelve-plex to a portfolio: on-market, off-market and the deals that never get listed. It is a place for the conversations that move real deals, with capital, partners and operators worth knowing.
A limited number of professionals
The people who finance, build and advise are invited alongside the investors, in smaller numbers, because they add value to the room.
- Lenders & mortgage brokers
- Developers & builders
- Commercial realtors
- Appraisers
- Architects & engineers
- Construction managers
- Property managers
- Lawyers & accountants
For multifamily investors · For developers · For professionals

Who's behind it
Hosted by Riley Oickle
I spend my days with the people who own and finance buildings across Atlantic Canada, and they kept asking to meet each other. That is the whole reason the group exists.
