Hazelview Investments Announces $150 Million First Close of Hazelview Canadian Multi-Residential Fund VI

Sixth fund in Hazelview Investments' 25-year multi-residential series secures $150 million from some of Canada's leading institutional investors at first close.

TORONTO, July 14, 2026 /CNW/ -- Hazelview Investments Inc. today announced the first close of the Hazelview Canadian Multi-Residential Fund VI (the "Fund"), securing $150 million in equity commitments from a strong lineup of leading Canadian investors. The investor group comprises a mix of Canadian institutional and private capital reflecting conviction in Hazelview Investments' platform and in the long-term fundamentals of Canadian multi-residential real estate.

The Fund is a closed-end, value-add, multi-residential vehicle targeting a diversified portfolio of rental residential assets across Canada's most supply-constrained urban markets, with a focus on Ontario, Alberta, Quebec, and Nova Scotia. With a seven-year investment horizon, the Fund will deploy a disciplined investment strategy aligned with stakeholder objectives. A second closing is targeted for mid-2027.

"Hazelview's edge is our ability to create value across the full investment lifecycle. Our integrated platform spanning investment management, development, and property operations gives us the control, insight, and execution capability to create value at every stage of ownership, not just manage it. In a market like this, that advantage matters."

-- Michael Tsourounis, Co-CEO & CIO Private Real Estate, Hazelview Investments

A persistent and structural supply-demand imbalance has created resilient and growing demand for rental housing across the country's major urban markets. Hazelview has the expertise, relationships, and operational depth to execute a disciplined strategy focused on acquiring and improving purpose-built rental communities.

Hazelview's integrated platform -- spanning investment management, development, and property operations -- gives the firm hands-on control over value creation at every stage of the asset lifecycle. Decades of local and Canadian market data, accumulated since the firm began investing in real estate in 1999, give the team differentiated points of view across sectors and geographies, enabling it to identify and act on opportunities with conviction. As an independent, employee-owned firm, Hazelview Investments' interests are directly aligned with those of its partners -- supporting a culture of personal accountability and disciplined execution. That conviction extends beyond the balance sheet. Hazelview Investments takes pride in transforming rental buildings into communities where residents genuinely thrive -- a commitment the firm sees not as separate from long-term investor value, but as central to it.

"This first close reflects the trust that leading investors place in Hazelview as a long-term partner in multi-residential real estate."

-- Ali Katz, CAIA, CIM, Managing Partner & Head of Capital Partnerships, Hazelview Investments
