Office Leasing & Workplace Strategy
what is tenant representation? (and why you need it!)
Many leaders mistakenly believe they can save money by contacting a building’s leasing agent directly. However, that agent represents the landlord's best interests, not yours. Tenant Representation means having a dedicated expert in your corner who owes fiduciary duty only to you. I level the playing field. My goal is to ensure you secure optimal terms, avoid unforeseen expenses, and create a truly productive environment that attracts and retains top talent — allowing you to focus on your core business with confidence. Whether you are renewing your current lease or relocating, I act as your strategic partner. This will:
create competition
When landlords know they are competing for your tenancy, terms improve.
uncover hidden costs
I clarify complex lease terms and operating costs that can quietly drain your budget.
save you time
You focus on running your business. I will handle the heavy lifting of market research and negotiations.
beyond the transaction - my unique approach
Too often, agents focus solely on the transaction - filling a vacancy and moving on. I believe a great space must put the human element first. My process combines traditional leasing with my experience in workplace strategy. I don't just find you an office; I help you craft a future-proof environment for your needs.
strategy first
I start by understanding your mission and culture, ensuring your space supports talent retention and productivity.
data-driven
I provide the market intelligence needed to validate "stay vs. go" decisions, helping weigh the ROI of a move against the hidden costs of an inefficient legacy space.
local expertise
With deep roots in the Ottawa market, I identify "flight-to-quality" opportunities where you can secure premium space at competitive rates.
