Building the homes British Columbia needs.
Whitebark Housing brings underused land into housing supply. It structures, permits and builds mixed-income homes with landholders who want to build: private owners, non-profit societies, co-operatives, faith communities, First Nations and municipalities.
Introduce a SiteOne platform for bringing land into housing supply.
Development Partnership
Whitebark develops and builds for private, non-profit and public landholders, from feasibility and approvals through construction and occupancy. The landholder keeps the land and the finished homes.
Mixed-Income Rental
Rental buildings that Whitebark develops and holds for the long term, with market and below-market homes under one roof. Owned alongside landholders and investors.
Supportive and Recovery Housing
Homes for people who need support to stay housed: seniors, people in recovery and people leaving homelessness. Whitebark develops and builds the building. An experienced non-profit operator runs it and delivers the services.
Modern methods of construction, applied as a discipline.
Integrated project delivery, lean planning, open BIM and digital permitting, with factory-built components where they serve the project.
Whitebark works from a repeatable wood-frame design kit, built with British Columbia timber and carried from site to site. Owner, designer and builder are aligned under one agreement, around one coordinated model.
The landholder owns. Whitebark delivers.
In a development partnership, title to the land and the homes stays with the landholder, for the long term. Where Whitebark co-invests in a rental building, ownership is shared and set out in the same way.
Whitebark is engaged under a written development agreement, on an open-book basis, with fees and the allocation of risk set out in advance. Each project is structured for the capital that fits it: insured rental financing for private landholders, and federal and provincial housing programs for non-profit and public landholders.
A new platform, led by experienced principals.
Whitebark Housing is a privately held British Columbia company, founded in 2026 and based in North Vancouver.
Its founder brings 22 years across technology and real estate, including 19 in land, residential and multifamily development in the province, a BC Housing licensed residential building practice, British Columbia's first privately led integrated project delivery development, and established relationships with CMHC-insured multifamily lenders. He co-directs BIMbc, a British Columbia not-for-profit advancing digital permitting and open BIM.
Partnership terms, manufacturing relationships and first sites are in development.
Whitebark pine.
A keystone tree of British Columbia's high country. It grows where few others can and shelters what grows around it.
Whitebark pine has been listed as endangered in Canada since 2012, and its recovery depends on patient, deliberate work. The name is a standard to build to: hardy, long-lived, and of benefit to its surroundings.
