What is the process for dealing with problematic tenants?

Although we spend ample time getting to know our applicants and conduct rigorous background checks, from time to time we do experience some issues related to trouble tenancies. Always aligned with our core values, we exercise patience and rational in order to understand the root of the problems. From experience, a simple warm conversation can most often resolve the issue. We can review the lease

terms with the tenant and offer assistance in resolving most problems they face, in order to minimize legal fees and lost rent.

How long will it take you to find me a tenant?

Once listed we can typically expect applications to come in within a few days. However, depending on season and market conditions, we could see a tenant being secured in as long as 30 – 60 days, sometimes longer. We work hard to minimize vacancy periods with premium marketing campaigns and local area signage.

Am I bound to any service contracts?

No. None of our service programs have set contract periods. We do ask that our clients provide us with at least 30 days notice if they decide to end their services with us.

What is a rent payment guarantee and why does it cost 12%?

Our Rent Guarantee Program is an additional protection coverage that we provide property owners which guarantees they receive rent payments on time whether or not the tenant has paid their rent. Because of the added risk associated with this service, we have set this fee accordingly. This service is only available to approved clients and depends on several factors.

Will you help me with legal LTB issues?

Yes. We have experience with filing appropriate forms and work with local paralegal teams that can help you through any LTB issue and represent you at hearings if required.

What is a self managed Property?

A self-managed property is a rental property managed by the landlord to ensure the day-to-day operations run smoothly. Most landlords work

with a property management company to outsource the work to a trained professional.

Property management VS Self Management: which is better?

Self-management for rental properties is the DIY approach to managing rental properties. A property management company is an external firm overseeing a rental property’s day-to-day operations. Property management companies are professionals who can help you save time and money and get the most out of your real estate investmen

What happens if I want to move into or sell my rental property?

Although we are unable to provide you with legal advice, we can help you issue and file the proper forms such as N12 (Notice to End your Tenancy Because the Landlord, a Purchaser or a Family Member Requires the Rental Unit). Contact us for details.
