Confidential guidance for funeral home owners and buyers

Canada's Trusted Advisor for Funeral Home Buyers, Sellers & Owners

Confidential guidance for funeral home owners and buyers — backed by 30+ years in finance and real estate, and 14+ years focused almost exclusively on funeral home transitions.

Guided by Discretion. Driven by Trust.

Your Legacy. Your Terms. My Full Discretion.

Buying or selling a funeral home isn’t just a financial transaction — it’s protecting a legacy, a reputation, and the families a community depends on. Every engagement starts the same way: I listen, understand your goals, and guide you forward with honesty and complete discretion.

Banking Background, Real-World Lending Experience

Before specializing in funeral homes, I spent 23 years with TD Bank / TD Canada Trust, holding roles across commercial banking and leadership:

Commercial Account Manager — analyzed financials, approved lending and mortgages
Branch Full-Service Manager — led two branches serving personal and commercial clients
Regional Area Manager — oversaw branch performance, marketing rollouts, and leadership development
Small Business Manager, Georgian Bay — supported businesses under $5M in sales

Career highlight: guiding a $20 million business acquisition through to successful expansion.

14+ Years, One Industry

Most business brokers spread across industries, my practice doesn’t — it’s built entirely around funeral homes, where success depends on more than the numbers: call volumes, staffing, facilities, equipment, and community reputation all factor in.

Over 14+ years, I’ve guided 50 ownership transitions — helping owners retire on their terms and buyers find the right opportunity. My hands-on experience covers:

Business valuation and market positioning
Financial and operational review
Real estate valuation opinions
Buyer vetting and qualification
Confidential negotiation and transaction planning
Financing guidance for buyers

Confidentiality, By Design

Every relationship starts with a private conversation — and stays that way. Kevin operates from a private home office, and no specific funeral home details are shared with a buyer until a signed NDA is in place. Sellers can even have competitors discreetly approached on their behalf, with their identity fully protected throughout.
