Lisa Brady is a unicorn. With over 20 years of experience in the commercial real estate business, she has served in various roles from sales agent, to operations, leasing, development, ownership and even property management. She’s worked with national and local corporations. She’s dedicated herself to this industry and is currently serving on the Board of NAIOP Southern Nevada.

She likes to spend time directly helping people and gives back in multiple ways. A self-professed rabid Golden Knights fan, Lisa is also big on cooking and baking, and an avid traveler. She is focused and caring, a mentor to many, and a great friend through and through.
Connection and Hard Work are Key
Lisa’s always determined to find a way to connect on some level. Her grandmother (who never missed a day of work) instilled a sense of hard work and accountability to your job. She worked two jobs in college, and went to school at night. She found herself back in Vegas in her early 20s and took a temp job that turned out to be the launch of her commercial real estate career.
Lisa’s desire to protect and care for others came from her time protecting and caring for her family growing up. When her grandmother experienced a stroke, it altered their family. Lisa learned that hard work isn’t everything. Family is everything.
