David Blanchard, Gary Stapleton, and Drew Blair founded Blair Blanchard Stapleton Limited, Real Estate Brokerage, in July 1995 with a vision: to create a team of top-tier real estate professionals leading the way in the Industrial, Commercial, and Investment (I.C. & I.) sector in the Greater Hamilton Bay area. Fast forward 30 years, and that vision has become a reality. Today, we’re proud to be an industry-leading, multi-million-dollar firm with a talented team offering more than 100 years of combined experience in commercial and investment real estate.
Our current sales team is made up of 21 recognized professionals who bring expertise in industrial sales and leasing, land sales, office leasing, retail and investment real estate, and appraisals. Beyond their technical skills, our team members are well-versed in areas like urban planning, financing, design-build projects, construction, and property management. Many of them have made meaningful contributions to the real estate industry through committee work with the Realtors Association of Hamilton-Burlington (RAHB) and the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO), as well as giving back to the community through local volunteer organizations.
We work with a diverse range of clients, from small property owners to Fortune 500 companies, and have deep ties with the fi nancial community. Our team’s broad expertise ensures we provide timely, informed, and professional advice tailored to our clients’ unique needs. In today’s fast-paced market, we know how important it is to handle every detail of a transaction, from zoning and construction to financing and market trends. That’s why we stay up to date on construction methods, costs, zoning bylaws, building codes, and the local political environment—key factors that help us guide projects from the first steps to the final handshake.
In July 2012, we expanded our reach by opening a second office in Burlington: Blair Blanchard Stapleton Halton Ltd., Brokerage. This full-service location caters to commercial sales and leasing needs in the Burlington area. The office is led by Kevin McAleese as the Broker of Record, with Rod Wright serving as a Sales Representative and Vice President.
At Blair Blanchard Stapleton Limited, we’re proud to be Hamilton’s trusted boutique commercial real estate team, offering a different way of approaching commercial real estate.
