Buying or renting, the Spire Group of real estate professionals represents healthcare professionals with their space requirements. Our associates are uniquely qualified because we focus solely on healthcare. Our experienced representation, advice and results are meaningful and appreciated by dental, medical, optical, veterinary and other healthcare professionals.
Despite the perceived similarities between any number of healthcare practices, each and every business is as unique as the principals and the communities in which they are established.
Determining what is important when selecting and securing a location is a function of the short, medium and long-term goals of the practice principals. Hence, each healthcare real estate transaction is unique and requires the experience of an industry professional to insure that the negotiated terms of any lease or purchase agreement are supportive of the principals goals.
Failure to properly document and protect the interests of the principals in the terms negotiated in a lease or purchase agreement can severely impact the viability, profitability and salability of a practice.
Spire associates are known for their expert representation, proficient negotiating skills and a commitment to realizing a WIN:WIN scenario that is respected and appreciated by clients, competitors and landlords.
Most people only do a few real estate transactions in their lives, we do them every day. We pride ourselves on our ability to hear what you want in a property for your practice and we listen for that which you need to make your wants a reality.
Once we have collectively determined your wants and needs, we ensure that they are aligned with your goals and we take the time to share our knowledge with you. This enables us to mutually discover what success looks like for your practice and we create a road-map in support of the mandate.
With a plan in-hand, we work with you and your team to navigate the market and make informed decisions. Smart alternatives are generated and decisions are made that maximize flexibility, reduce risk and achieve your goals. We make sure that all documents reflect the negotiated business points and more. We also stay by your side after the ink dries to ensure you get the results you desire and deserve.
Our clients are practice leaders who have an increasingly complex role in an environment of rapid change. One thing is certain; leaders have to make informed decisions, which stand to impact
their customers, employees, suppliers, other stakeholders and their own families.
Our clients understand that real estate represents a material long term fixed cost and in most cases it is the most significant monthly expense after human resources.
Our clients recognize that real estate is more than a shelter from which to operate their business, it is a statement about their practice, their clients, who they are and what their company believes in.
Remember, if your not the lead dog in the pack, the view never changes. Leaders understand this and instinctively surround themselves with winners who are committed to a shared goal.
In our experience, most people tend to focus on the low hanging fruit when assessing a facility for their practice, namely the amount of square feet and price because it is something they can grasp right away.
While it's not always obvious, the details of the agreement are equally important as they must address risk and flexability in support of your long-term goals.
Spire associates work with practice leaders to share our knowledge about the way things really work in the real estate industry. We enable action through exploring all options and negotiate on your behalf to achieve your goals.
In short, we make your life easier.

I was very impressed with Spire Group. Jeff Sklar represented me and I would highly recommend utilizing his services for both location selection and lease negotiation. His local knowledge of the Calgary marketplace is invaluable. His thorough and detailed approach to lease negotiation ensured my interests were protected in the short term and in the future.

Spire’s anticipation of our needs, knowledge of commercial leasing and their willingness to call a spade a spade are one of the rarest combinations in almost any field, let alone commercial real estate. The Spire team treated us as if we were their only client and they were always available to answer our questions. We can’t recommend Spire enough. Thank you for making our process a pleasure and a success.

Thank you for doing a thorough analysis of my lease. You most importantly considered my current and future circumstances and made recommendations that were ideal for me and my practice. I would gladly recommend your services to anyone either renewing an existing or negotiating a new lease.

I want to thank you for all your hard work in helping with all the preliminary steps of establishing my own office. Your continued support and communication was appreciated. Spire did outstanding work for us. They went above and beyond our expectations by finding us a location and negotiating persistently with a challenging landlord. I highly recommend their team.
Dr. Daniel Charland, DDS
I have found Spire to be responsive, knowledgeable and well connected. With Spire's assistance, I was able to negotiate the lease I wanted and needed most. I would never have negotiated this lease renewal without them.

Spire was an excellent resource, on so many levels, during the setup of my office. Spire found the landlord’s right of first refusal buried in the fine print of the lease which would have seriously limited the worth of my business and my options when it came time to sell. Other neighboring business owners were not so lucky. All the hard earned days spent building up a business at the mercy of the landlord is not a fair and Spire made sure my rights were protected. It was very comforting to have a professional who knew exactly how to negotiate with the landlord, on my behalf, ensuring that I got what I wanted. Spire was absolutely essential in this process and I would want my fellow optometrist’s rights to be similarly protected while they put in their hard earned hours setting up and running their businesses.
Dr. Laura Draper, OD
Spire's hard work, dedication, experience and amazing people skills were of great value to our team and in my opinion are a great asset to any new project.
