Frind Properties

Frind Properties

Frind Properties was founded in 2016 by Markus Frind to manage the capital created by his sale of PlentyOfFish Media Inc. The firm operates from Vancouver as the sole vehicle for the Frind family’s long-term holdings. The investment program spans real estate, infrastructure, venture capital, private equity and alternative strategies. Real estate activity covers commercial, residential and industrial assets with a value-add or opportunistic bias, executed through co-investments. Infrastructure exposure focuses on energy and public-private partnership projects, again via co-investments. Venture capital targets revenue-generating SaaS businesses in North America while private equity pursues management buyouts and leveraged buyouts of companies valued between $10M and $30M enterprise value. Confirmed co-investors include CAI Capital Partners and BDC Capital on a 2025 LBO alongside The Universal Group. Geographic reach remains limited to North America. The team consists of President Markus Frind and Director of Real Estate & Alternative Investments Jose Andino. Frind Properties maintains one office in Vancouver. In January 2024 Lena Bullock, CFO of Frind Properties Ltd., joined the Board of Directors of the Business Development Bank of Canada. The firm is a member of the Gastown Business Improvement Society. Frind Properties executes its mandate through a hybrid structure that combines direct co-investments, SPVs and selective fund commitments. This architecture allows the office to retain control over capital allocation while accessing third-party origination in real estate, infrastructure and private equity without building large internal deal teams.
