What Amacon does

Amacon Inc. is a privately held Canadian real estate development and construction firm founded in 1975 and headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia. The company develops, constructs, and sells residential real estate — primarily condominiums, townhomes, and rental apartments — across Western and Eastern Canada (Vancouver, Coquitlam, Burnaby, Abbotsford, Maple Ridge, Toronto, Mississauga, St. Albert) and, since 2024, the United States (Denver, Colorado). Its core technology is conventional real estate development combined with vertical integration across site acquisition, project design, development, construction, customer care, and marketing and sales, supported by proprietary master-planned community planning (most notably the 30-acre, ~7,500-unit Parkside Village in Mississauga) and heritage-integrated development techniques (e.g., Block Residences atop the preserved 1928 Northern Electric Building in Vancouver).

The product portfolio spans master-planned communities, high-rise and mid-rise condominium towers, townhomes, and rental apartments. Recent and active projects include Upton Residences (461 units, Denver), The Grant (33 units, East Vancouver), Block Residences (187 units, Vancouver), Vue (296 units, West Coquitlam), Voya (~930 units, Mississauga), Avia (1,056 units, Mississauga), Juneau (147 units, Burnaby), Imperial (Burnaby, sold out), Alaska (Burnaby, completed 2024), McKenzie Mews (48 townhomes, Abbotsford), and Ridgewood Place (rental, Maple Ridge). Amacon generates revenue primarily through one-time unit sales to individual homebuyers and real estate investors, with pricing varying by project, location, and unit type (e.g., Upton units starting in the low $400s, Block Residences one-bedrooms from the high $700Ks, Vue from the low $500Ks). Go-to-market is sales-led via dedicated presentation centres, design atelier events, project-specific websites with VIP registration, and a channel partnership with MLA Canada Realty. Customer segments are individual homebuyers (first-time buyers, families, downsizers) and buy-to-let investors. Headcount is 501–1,000 employees, with offices in Vancouver, Toronto, St. Albert, and Denver.
