Brandon Lawson, VP of Acquisitions

Born on the West Coast and raised in Nanaimo BC, Brandon has deep roots on Vancouver Island. He sees great potential there and knows the inner workings of every submarket. That is what makes him not only a crucial part of our team, but a dedicated change-maker in community development. He is part of several investment education programs and an active investor himself. Brandon has been involved in several real estate projects ranging from single-family to multi-family, and after multiple partnerships with Top Down Investments, Brandon saw the potential of working with a team with incredible culture to solve bigger problems and add value to the communities they operate in. Through his roots and connections, Brandon works directly with our investors to find the perfect placements for them.
