Kent-Macpherson has a long standing client relationship with many First Nations communities and governments throughout B.C. and Canada-wide, and offer numerous professional services including: appraisal, leasing, valuation, rent reviews, planning and development consulting, treaty negotiations, and specific claims on First Nations lands. Our relationships continue to grow as our communities expand, increasing opportunities for deeper partnerships.

Understanding and respect of the aboriginal perspective is vital. Appreciating the value of First Nations history and diverse aboriginal culture, influences the way business is managed.
