Canvas was founded in March 2020 with the idea of creating a progressive yet focused advisory business.
Our difference doesn’t lie in what we do but how we do it. We care about creating genuine partnerships between tenants and landlords, in building relationships that can last years and be beneficial to all parties involved.
Our team is passionate about playing our part in building better communities in which to live, work and play.
We are nimble and loyal. We are Canvas, and we will bring your vision to life.
