Turning Multifamily Real Estate into Long-Term Value
Why M & S Holdings?
We are not just property owners— we are value creators.
At M & S Holdings, we acquire multifamily communities with untapped potential, reposition them through strategic renovation and modernization, and manage them through a vertically integrated platform.
The result: optimized performance, enhanced communities, and sustainable returns for investors.
Our Expertise
M&S Holdings leadership team has over 40 years of experience, transacting on over $500M in transaction volume representing over 2,700 units.
Our Edge
Targeted, Data-Driven Acquisitions
We focus exclusively on high-growth U.S. markets and perform rigorous underwriting to identify assets with maximum upside potential. Our disciplined acquisition strategy prioritizes stability, long-term value, and risk-adjusted returns.
Full-Service Value-Add & Repositioning
Thanks to decades of experience across construction, redevelopment, and property operations, our team executes tailored renovation and repositioning plans — from unit upgrades to amenity improvements and community enhancements.
Institutional-Level Asset Management
Because we control every step — acquisition, renovation, resident services — we maintain tight oversight over performance, control costs, and ensure transparency and accountability.
Resident-Centric Communities That Perform
We don’t just buy apartments — we build communities. Resident experience is central: from property upkeep to community programming. Higher resident satisfaction leads to better occupancy, retention, and ultimately stronger financial performance.

The Supply-Demand Imbalance for Workforce Housing
The housing crisis for the Missing Middle is fuelled by skyrocketing demand and shrinking supply of rental units that moderate-income earners can afford. M&S Holdings is focused on bridging that gap in a way that benefits both the community and investors.

“While the affordability strain has been felt across the income spectrum, housing cost-burden shares have risen the most for middle-income renters since 2019.”
To make real impact quickly, we need to creatively reimagine and efficiently transform existing properties. Modernizing existing structures is the fastest, most scalable solution to bridge the workforce housing gap.
