Hart Buck, Vice President, Insolvency & Investment

Hart joined Colliers in 1985 specializing in land sales. Over the course of his career, this specialization has allowed him to create many long-term relationships within the development community. During the periods of low demand for development opportunities, Hart began to create his market niche within the insolvency sectors, by servicing the requirements of foreclosing lenders and transactions requiring court oversight.

Hart was a vital member of the sales team of Glen Robin Place, a substantial strata sale prior to any amendments to the Strata Property Act and has become a leader within the realm of strata wind-ups and sales.
