The Team
To create a landmark, a community of significance, one that uses the environment as its guide to development, takes a team that not only understands the vision, but has the will to bring the idea to life. The partners behind Qualicum Landing at Qualicum Beach have each made a commitment to the community, to the environment, and to those who will invest in a Qualicum Landing home....ensuring a spectacular community to live, work and play.
Managing Partners
David Steele and Pat Delesalle drive the bold vision for Qualicum Landing. David brings over 17 years experience in real estate development. He has directed the sales of over 85 projects in Canada and the Western United States, helping home owners purchase over 1.6 billion dollars in both primary and investment properties. Pat Delesalle started his career in the lumber industry and owned "Lumberland B.C" with his brother and business partner Tim until 1997. Pat is very active in local sports and is one of the owners of the Coquitlam Express Junior A hockey team. A great wilderness enthusiast, Pat is also a shareholder in the Queen Charlotte fishing lodge on Graham Island in the heart of the Charlottes. Together, their passion for building a responsible, sustainable community is evident from their selection of this pristine parcel of land and the active green principles that govern the many decisions that come together to form this beachside community.
