About Benchmark Properties

The Benchmark Group of Companies is a family-owned and operated corporate group. Its principal business activities include commercial and industrial land development, construction, property management, and residential land development.

Following its inception in the mid 1970's, Benchmark constructed over 500 homes in subdivisions such as Heritage Mountain, Guilford Chase, Langley Meadows, Walnut Grove, Fraser Woods, Brookside, and Rolling Meadows. The first phase of Surrey first Sustainable Community, Clayton Village, comprising 143 single family residential lots, has just been completed.

Over the past fifteen years, the Benchmark Group of Companies has emerged as a leader in commercial real estate development. In Surrey, Benchmark developed Benchmark Plaza, followed by the highly successful 35 acre business park joint venture known as Surrey Central Business Park, a first of its kind for the City of Surrey.

In Langley, the Langley Business Centre is a 31 acre light industrial development. It is comprised of a number of multi-tenant warehouse/office complexes. Of particular interest in this development is the new Canadian Tire Distribution Center, as well as Benchmark's own award-winning corporate headquarters.

While the Benchmark Group manages its own construction, it also owns and manages more than 1,000,000 square feet of commercial space. Major tenants include ICBC, the RCMP, Ford Canada and GE Capital.

The President and Director of Benchmark Properties Ltd. is Mr. Robert Bontkes. Mr. Bontkes' expertise in land development, industrial, commercial and residential construction is the product of over 25 years of effort. Our specialization in commercial development since the mid 1980's has served to increase the ability of the Benchmark team to serve our tenants at the highest level.
