About Us


Realizing that there was a need for a Commercial Real Estate Brokerage House whose primary focus was developing long-term relationships with their clientele, based on a family relationship’ concept, Gary Shaker departed from the world of large corporate brokerage houses; in January of 1999 he founded Shaker Realty Ltd. Brokerage with his father, Frank Shaker, who started in commercial real estate back in 1972.

From day one of its fruition, Gary decided that Shaker Realty Ltd. Brokerage would base its foundation on the old-world principal of valuing people over money.

If a client says to me that they want a particular space, but I don’t think it’s right for them even though I could lease or sell it to them and collect a commission – I’ll tell them, No, it’s not right for you.’ Then I’ll try and find them something that’s better suited for them. And if I don’t have it I’ll try to help them find an appropriate space with someone else. The right client for the right space, and vice-versa, that’s how I look at it.

This deeply embedded practice has resulted in unparalleled customer service, and a strong sense of family connection’ between the Shaker office and its clientele. Unlike many other real estate offices, Gary has maintained an active interest in the success of all their clientele’s ventures; from dropping by to say Hello’, or referring new clients to that business, or by simply supporting the business by purchasing something from them, Gary has retained strong connections to the people with whom they have done business.

Shaker Realty Ltd. Brokerage cultivated a strong and independent commercial office that has, since 1999, succeeded in achieving brand-name recognition.

While being defined as a ‘Boutique Office’ Shaker Realty Ltd. Brokerage proficiently does business on a National and International scale. Well-known national and international companies and franchises, including many TSX and Dow Composite companies are part of a wide client list.

At Shaker Realty Ltd. Brokerage we sincerely look forward to getting to know you, and finding out how we can help you succeed.
