      The real estate industry has long been instrumental in shaping the daily lives of Canadians. It has fostered the vision and entrepreneurial spirit that have defined the skylines of our cities and created the spaces in which we live, work and entertain. As one of Canada’s brand-defining asset classes, real estate has provided an unparalleled opportunity for investors to participate in the creation and ownership of exciting developments, while generating cash flow and building wealth.

      Capitalizing on such opportunities involves navigating a changing landscape and managing risk. The shifting economic environment, integrating new technologies, complying with government regulation, reacting to consumer sentiment, and meeting evolving stakeholder demands increase the need for insights, continuous innovation and nimble strategies.

      At KPMG, we collaborate with real estate and construction organizations to capitalize on the opportunities presented by the dynamic real estate landscape. Our multi-disciplined real estate practice has been built through a persistent effort of more than 40 years to forge one of the largest and strongest full-service providers in the industry. Our team has the knowledge and experience to help you. Contact us today to see how.
