Why Deveraux

At Deveraux, we're more than a rental developer. We're builders of community, connection, and opportunity. With over $2.5 billion in managed assets across Western Canada, we've been recognized as Platinum Status with Canada's Best Managed Companies for our innovation, growth, and commitment to creating thriving communities.

We specialize in the design, development, construction, and management of purpose-built apartment communities. Thanks to our vertically integrated model, we manage every stage of a project's lifecycle, from conception to construction to long-term operations. This structure encourages collaboration across all departments and gives our team the chance to contribute meaningfully at every step.

Our developments are thoughtfully designed to be sustainable and forward-thinking, consistently exceeding national energy standards. But our impact goes beyond the buildings. We believe in giving back through donations, volunteerism, and mentorship, because responsible development includes supporting the communities around us.

At Deveraux, our culture is rooted in accountability, integrity, excellence, and collaboration. We've created an inclusive environment where innovation is encouraged, and every voice is heard. With access to leadership, strong mentorship, and continuous development opportunities, this is more than a workplace. It is a place where you can grow, make a difference, and be part of something meaningful.
