HSAM has more than $100 billion in assets under management. The entity will continue to \u201cleverage the expertise of its investment professionals from Basalt Infrastructure Partners, Versus Capital, Rockwood Capital and Colliers Global Investors,\u201d according to a company statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colliers’ recent acquisitions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Colliers has been an active buyer of other companies recently. The real estate services firm has expanded further with a number of deals in the engineering sector since 2024. Those acquisitions include two Canadian companies, Englobe Corp. and Higher Ground Consulting, and the Illinois-based Terra Consulting Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier in 2025, Colliers acquired Triovest’s Canadian commercial real estate services platform from Coril Holdings. The platform was then rebranded to Colliers. Earlier acquisitions include a 65 percent stake in Rockwood Capital, and the acquisition of a controlling interest in Versus Capital<\/a>, a leading U.S. alternative real asset management firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For its part, Harrison Street has been busy expanding in the student housing sector. It too has found properties in Canada, such as Le Mildor\u00e9, a 279-bed project in downtown Montreal. Harrison Street also partnered with Gracorp Properties to develop a 645-unit student and working professional housing project in Calgary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
