I help business owners across the GTA with all things industrial real estate — leasing, buying, selling, and everything in between. Twenty years advising manufacturers, distributors, and food & beverage operators gives me a business-first lens on your property.
Most industrial real estate agents can show you space. Fewer understand what happens inside it. Before commercial real estate, I spent two decades helping various businesses including manufacturers, distributors, and food & beverage businesses grow — so I read your requirements through an operator's lens and run every deal like a strategist.
Clear height, power, dock ratios, turning radius, throughput — I translate your operation into a spec, so we shortlist buildings that actually fit how you work.
A career in sales and marketing means listings and requirements are positioned sharply and reach the right counterparties — not just posted and hoped over.
Net rent is only the headline. I press on free rent, improvement allowances, escalations, and TMI exposure to protect your all-in cost for the full term.
After thirteen straight quarters of rising vacancy through 2024–25, the GTA industrial market is stabilizing. Vacancy eased to 4.2% in Q1 2026 — down from 4.5% the prior quarter, and the first meaningful decline of the cycle. Yet it remains well above the sub-2% lows of the last cycle, and average net asking rents have now slipped for seven consecutive quarters — though the decline has flattened. For occupiers, that still means real leverage: softer rents, fuller incentives, and genuine choice. The signal worth watching is that the worst of the correction is likely behind us, so the window for the very best terms is no longer widening.

I coordinate the deal to firm and help plan the move so it doesn't stall production or service.
For more than twenty years I advised various businesses including manufacturers, distributors, and food & beverage companies on how to win — how to position, sell, and grow. That work taught me to listen for what a business actually needs and to negotiate with purpose.
Today I bring that same operator's mindset to commercial real estate in the GTA, with a focus on industrial real estate. The result is representation that's part agent, part strategist — and entirely in your corner.
