Stephen Plourde

Stephen Plourde is Co-Founder of Flex Unit Pro, where he develops and operates small-bay flex industrial properties built for contractors, service businesses, and hands-on operators.
He leads acquisitions, leasing, and operations across the Mid-Atlantic, focusing on underutilized industrial sites in supply-constrained markets. His work is centered on a simple idea: build in locations where contractor demand already exists and design spaces that support real day-to-day operations.
With nearly 20 years in commercial real estate, Stephen has completed over $1B in transactions across development, leasing, and investment sales. His background spans residential development, retail leasing, investment sales, and multifamily syndication, giving him full-cycle experience from sourcing and underwriting to leasing and long-term ownership.
Today, he applies that experience to scale a portfolio of contractor-focused flex industrial assets through a vertically integrated approach, combining data-driven site selection, efficient design, and hands-on operations.
Outside of work, Stephen lives in the Philadelphia suburbs with his wife and serves as a Captain/Firefighter in his local community. He spends his time hiking, camping, cycling, and traveling.
