Focused Marketing

The rental market is an ever-changing environment.

As professionals, we are constantly assessing the market to ensure each property is listed at fair market value.

Before the marketing of your property begins, a licensed property manager will carry out a property inspection to help identify the most appropriate price point.
We will then use a variety of different media, including the web, local press, and social media to ensure your property is rented.

Guaranteed Tenant Screening for Rental Owners

We conduct comprehensive screening of all potential tenants. This includes reference checks from current and previous landlords. Tenants’ credit scores can be verified through Equifax, a reputable credit monitoring agency.

Our tenant placement service is guaranteed to find you a tenant that you can rely on. If a tenant stops paying rent, or moves out within 90 days of the start of their lease, we will screen and place another tenant in your property free of charge.

(Tenant guarantee only applies to placement service where tenancy is a fixed term of 12 months or greater)

Entering into a Lease

We will enter into, and complete, a lease on your behalf. Whenever possible, we will explain every term and condition of the lease, as well as any other rules and bylaws imposed on the property, so the tenant is aware of any responsibilities they have before signing.

Condition Inspection Report

Landlords and tenants are required to complete a Condition Inspection Report at the beginning and end of each tenancy. A landlord or tenant loses their right to lay claim to a security deposit should they fail to carry out a condition inspection report.

We conduct a very detailed condition inspection report which includes digital photographic evidence to back up all findings prior to each tenancy commencing. This report complies with all rules and regulations set by the RTA and will ensure that you are able to protect your property in the best way possible against any damages at the end of the tenancy.

Rent Collection

We do everything we can to make paying rent easy. We accept cash, cheque and can also facilitate pre-authorized debit payments directly from a tenants account.

All rental funds and deposits are deposited as soon as they are received directly into fully audited trust accounts until disbursement.

Each month you will receive a statement of income and expenditures and rental funds will be directly deposited into your chosen account. We will make every reasonable effort to issue amounts owing by the 15th of each month.

Routine Inspections

We are on hand 24 hours a day 7 days a week to assist with any tenant emergency’s. On top of this we conduct regular property checks carrying out thorough visual inspections once every six months and carry out a detailed property review. This allows us to effectively note the condition of the property and advise or make suggestions for any upcoming maintenance needs to help with budgeting purposes. Being upfront with all our tenants about the frequency of inspections also helps discourage any illegal use of your property. We always act in a caring and unobtrusive manner when carrying out property inspections.

Tenant Disputes

We deal with all tenant disputes so you don’t have to. Any unacceptable behavior by a tenant will be dealt with according to the rules within the Residential Tenancy Act (RTA). We quickly arrange for restitution of rent non-payment and NSF charges. If the tenant’s rent payment is late by more than three days we will automatically issue a 10-day notice to quit as per the RTA.

Financial Reporting

We provide paperless accounting statements delivered straight to your email each and every month. Each report shows all financial transactions which took part in your trust account over the statement period. Any expenses paid on your behalf will be supported by a copy of the receipt for the expense and will be included with your statement.
