Kelly Canady

Professional Experience and Philosophy
I joined TRI Coldwell Banker, San Francisco’s premier real estate firm, in 2004.   Prior to joining TRI, I was in the corporate securities industry for ten years as both an attorney and investment banker.   In those professions, I negotiated and priced transactions for both technology start-ups and multi-billion dollar public companies.   Today, I use those fundamental skills of contract negotiation and comparable analysis to get sellers top dollar for their property and buyers the property of their dreams without leaving money on the table.   I am driven by my clients’ success and satisfaction.

Personal Background
I am a native Californian and grew up in Tiburon, when the downtown still had warehouses, an old train track and terrific piers to climb.   I went to Cornell University and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts.   Following a couple of years working at a boutique investment bank in Manhattan, I attended University of Iowa, College of Law, where I was an Editor of Law Review.  I have been a resident of San Francisco for the past 10 years, while working at top Bay Area firms - Gray Cary Ware & Friedenrich, Thelen Reid & Priest, and JPMorgan H&Q (formerly Hambrecht & Quist).   I am happy to have joined TRI Coldwell Banker, an equally distinguished firm.

In my free time, I love to travel, ski, cook, golf with my husband, Frank, and chill with my puppy, Shane.
