Clayton Research is a firm of urban and real estate economists providing strategic information, analysis and advice to private and public sector clients across Canada. The firm specializes in real estate market analysis, land use planning issues, consumer spending and borrowing research, and building products demand. Since its establishment in 1972 by Dr. Frank A. Clayton, the firm has gained a reputation for astute and independent analysis and advice, based on extensive in-house expertise, a unique information base, leading edge analytical techniques and extensive contacts throughout Canada.

National coverage is supplied through the head office in Toronto and associates in Vancouver and Calgary. In-depth research for assignments undertaken across the country has made the firm very familiar with the economic and real estate environments in major Canadian urban centres.

While national in scope, Clayton Research is a relatively small firm, with a predominance of senior professional staff. This ensures that experienced senior consultants are closely involved in all projects undertaken by the firm. Every assignment begins with an understanding of the economic, financial, demographic, institutional and public policy environments influencing the issues under consideration.

Reflecting our diverse expertise and the reliability of our analysis, our clients include a wide mix of real estate developers and builders, investors, financial institutions, manufacturers, retailers, industry associations, and all levels of government.
