About MarshallZehr
Since 2008, MarshallZehr has helped leading real-estate developers build a better Canada.
As one of Canada’s largest privately held mortgage brokers and administrators, we offer more than access to capital. By combining our deep industry knowledge, trusted relationships, and cutting-edge technology, we help our clients achieve more successful and profitable outcomes.
Founded during the 2008 global financial crisis, we identified a significant lack of access to capital among developers. As Canada continues to grow and expand, real estate has remained a constant necessity.
At MarshallZehr, we challenge traditional financing alternatives by cultivating creative and innovative solutions to drive long-term value.
What we do
We provide customized land, construction, and development financial solutions for high-performing real estate developments for residential, industrial, and mixed-use projects. Using innovative, in-house technology, we offer streamlined mortgage administration services, while bridging the gap between exceptional projects and complete access to capital.
We are dedicated to driving change in the industry by creating better outcomes for developers, lenders, and the community at large.
