Killam is based in Halifax, Nova Scotia and describes itself as owning, operating, managing and developing a $5.5 billion portfolio of apartments and manufactured home communities (Q1-2026 release, May 6, 2026); it owns nearly 18,000 apartment units across Canada.

In May 2026, Killam announced it is pausing the initiation of new developments in the 'near term' — completing only in-progress projects — citing market conditions and constrained wastewater/water infrastructure capacity in growth markets including Halifax and the Kitchener-Waterloo region. CEO Philip Fraser said it will pursue new projects only when the 'development spread' clears a required threshold.

Killam trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange under ticker KMP.UN and reported Q1-2026 net operating income of $62.0 million, up 5.1% year over year, with apartment occupancy of 97.0% driven by strength in Atlantic markets.
