About Us
After establishing our careers in large consulting firms supporting the early institutional champions of sustainability in real estate, we wanted to chart a new path. With a renewed focus on exceptional service and dependability, we created breea in 2015 to provide a more personal, accessible, and tailored client experience.
Sustainability is a marathon where the finish line is a moving target. We strive to develop long-term partnerships with our clients to help them navigate through each checkpoint as goals are achieved, expanded, and the sustainability and ESG landscapes evolve. Our ultimate goal is to transform sustainability challenges and risks into opportunities for market differentiation, business growth, and financial success. . . . . while doing the right things to make this world a better place than we found it.
