About

Dream Impact Trust

Dream Impact Trust is dedicated to impact investing. Impact investing is the intention of creating measurable, positive, social and environmental change in our communities and for our stakeholders, while generating attractive financial returns.

The Trust’s underlying portfolio is comprised of exceptional real estate assets reported under two operating segments: development, and recurring income.

Our fundamental objectives are to:

  • Create positive and lasting impacts for our stakeholders through our three impact verticals: environmental sustainability and resilience, attainable and affordable housing, and inclusive communities;
  • Balance growth and stability of the portfolio, increasing cash flow and unitholders’ equity over time;
  • Provide investors with a portfolio of high-quality real estate assets, concentrated in core geographic markets, leveraging an experienced management team.

Operating Segments

The Trust’s operating segments currently consist of the following:

  • Recurring income — comprised of a portfolio of commercial real estate income properties and multi-family rental assets in the Greater Toronto Area (“GTA”) and Ottawa/Gatineau, and a utility asset(1)
  • Development — comprised of direct and indirect investments in residential and mixed-use developments
