One Brand. Four Divisions. Built for the Full Real Estate Lifecycle.
Tom Brubaker is the founder and principal broker behind all four divisions of the TAMBAY brand:
TAMBAY Realty
TAMBAY Commercial,
TAMBAY Business Brokers,
and
TAMBAY Mergers & Acquisitions.
Each division was created to serve a different phase of the real estate and business ownership journey. TAMBAY Commercial handles office, retail, and industrial real estate. TAMBAY Realty manages residential listings and relocations. TAMBAY Business Brokers focuses on main street businesses. TAMBAY Mergers & Acquisitions supports lower-middle-market companies preparing for a strategic exit.

This multi-division structure gives clients access to a broader range of expertise and makes TAMBAY one of the few firms in the region that can guide individuals and companies through every step — from residential ownership to commercial investments to full business sale.

If you are buying property, leasing space, selling a business, or seeking valuation expertise, the TAMBAY group is built to serve you.
