Ruth Buckle & Issmat Al-Akhali

On this episode, we have the honour of speaking to not one, but two influential people from the housing industry, Ruth Buckle & Issmat Al-Akhali. A staple in her community, Ruth is the Senior Vice President Property Management at Killam Apartment REIT. She oversees Killam’s 19,000+ apartment suites, 5900 land lease sites and commercial portfolios across seven provinces. Alongside Ruth, we have Issmat, an immigrant entrepreneur based in Halifax Nova Scotia. Arriving from his home country of Yemen in 1999, Issmat is now the Owner & Operator of Halifax based Black Sheep Project Management Inc., Granville Student Hall Residence and the Cameo Hotel and Suites. Together we discuss many topics, including a deep dive into fixed-term leases. Brimming with pertinent information, it’s an episode you don’t want to miss.
