ABOUT WALTON

SPECIALIST REAL ESTATE ASSET MANAGER

The Walton Group of Companies is a real estate asset management and investment group specialising in strategies based around pre-development land and land development in North America. Founded in Calgary, Canada in 1979, Walton currently manages USD$3.8 billion of assets in Canada and the U.S., encompassing 179 master plans, 13 active developments and a portfolio of real estate backed loans. Walton services 98,000 investors across the globe and is proud to have delivered distributions in excess of USD$2 billion since inception. ​

The success of our business is underpinned by one of the largest portfolios of pre-development land in North America; as of Sep 2019 we administered over 106,000 acres of land assets, of which more than 83,000 acres are located in the rapidly growing South and Western regions of the United States. As a result of our unique way to hold, own, manage and monetize land assets we have become a valuable partner to best in class local, regional and national developers and builders.
