Welcome to The Angrish Group
Experts in Land Development, Real Estate and Planning Consultancy Across South-west Ontario, Canada
Canada is experiencing a period of rapid transformation. Record-high immigration, housing shortages, and urban expansion are putting immense pressure on cities, infrastructure, and communities. As major urban centres approach capacity, growth is spilling into suburban and rural regions—creating a surge in demand for smart, sustainable development.
Government initiatives like Ontario’s More Homes Built Faster Act and the Federal Housing Accelerator Fund are driving municipalities to update their policies and revise zoning bylaws and fast-track approvals. At the same time, increasing regulatory complexity, environmental priorities, and large-scale infrastructure investments are making expert guidance more essential than ever.
That’s where The Angrish Group comes in.
