VADA: A New Era for Trusted Property Management in Metro Vancouver

In the ever-changing landscape of property management in Metro Vancouver, evolution is key. In light of that, we’re excited to announce the next chapter in our journey — our sister companies, Advent and Vada, have merged into one: VADA Property Management.

Rest assured, we’re still the same trustworthy property management team. But now, with a unified name, we’re providing even better service, fuelled by unrivalled market expertise and knowledge. We’re excited to have you join us!

VADA: A New Era for Trusted Property Management in Metro Vancouver

The Story Behind Our New Name

Why the Change?

Simply put, we realized that our brand needed to evolve to better represent our cutting-edge, client-centred service and proactive, agile nature. We also wanted to convey our future-friendly approach towards influencing more dynamic Metro Vancouver communities.

Explains our founder, Michelle Farina, "VADA is not just a new name — it’s a reflection of our commitment to innovation, quality, and community. As one of the leading property management companies in Metro Vancouver, this new step is part of how we raise the bar and set it high."

The Evolution to VADA

For over 20 years, we’ve delivered exceptional property management services in Metro Vancouver, going above and beyond firstly for our clients, and their tenants. Our journey has seen many pivotal moments since our launch as Advent in 2006. Neil McGuinness officially came on board in 2008 and Andrea Farina joined in 2009, making us a truly family-owned company.

Always seeking to serve our clients better, in 2014, we enhanced operations with our proprietary client management software. We expanded with Vada rental and lease management in 2020, and in 2021, launched our first lease-up project. Now, we mark a new milestone in 2024 — unifying all our services under the refreshed VADA name. You could say our history is rich and our future is bright.

So What’s New As VADA

As mentioned, we’re still the same great team of licensed Metro Vancouver property managers you can trust. But with our name change comes a renewed dedication towards unwavering, exceptional client care and those who live, work, and play in the properties we manage.

Today, we’re more than a mere bridge between tenants and landlords; we’re also championing thought-provoking dialogue and progressive solutions to foster thriving communities in the Metro Vancouver area now and in the future. Behind every strategy and interaction? Connected, future-friendly communities. 

What’s the New Look and Feel All About?

Our new visual identity reflects the modern, dynamic nature of our Metro Vancouver property management services. The fresh colour palette and streamlined logo symbolize our approachability, as well as our commitment to fostering vibrant contemporary communities.

What This Means for Our Property Management Clients in the Metro Vancouver Area
