Principal Mark Richardson was born and raised in Brampton, Ontario by immigrant parents. Richardson was naturally drawn to entrepreneurship and real estate as he witnessed the importance it held and the security it created in lives of everyday people. His mother frequently referred to their home as their castle and insisted their modest dwelling be treated that way -- a philosophy Richardson holds to this today. From selling tadpoles to neighbours at the tender age of 5, to making paper rings to sell to classmates in grade school, Richardson registered his first official business in high school and hired friends to help operate it. Since then, Mark has started four million-dollar companies. As the single shareholder, he has taken The Richardson Group from 0 to over 32 million dollars in owned assets since inception. Mark believes that learning is a lifelong process that can be enriched with every interaction and situation.
