Madat Kara

Madat Kara began his successful Real Estate career in 1988 after 20 years of being an entrepreneur. Born in East Africa, Madat attempted his first venture in 1969. He established a profitable retail auto parts business which later expanded into distribution at a /wholesale level. In 1974 Madat moved to Canada and continued in the automotive trade by retail acquiring a franchised rust proofing business and within a year expanded his portfolio by owning a used car dealership, service garage and a chain of gas stations. He then chose to explore the hospitality industry and subsequently opened a highly successful ‘new concept’ restaurant that was well known in Toronto.
In 1983, Madat sold his holdings and made his permanent move to Ottawa. Upon arriving he immediately purchased a convenience store which led him to open several more until he eventually had a chain of convenience stores as well as a couple of photo labs and a formal wear store. By 1988 Madat sold his interest in the retail business and made his move into the Real Estate Industry. While building his business, he was involved in the ownership of two very well known Ottawa (O’Tooles) restaurants but eventually focused on his growing Real Estate business.
Madat’s highly developed management & people skills come as a result of years of experience and supervision of countless employees, and it is this which has contributed to his outstanding success in the building of his Real Estate business. He has a desire to provide results and never gives less than 100% to his clients.
