From setting the asking rent to reviewing applications, we help you prepare, market and lease your Toronto property. Start with a rent evaluation based on comparable leases and your property's details.
Tell us about the property and when it may be available. We'll review relevant leases and follow up with a rent range and leasing plan.
Start my rent evaluationOn a $2,000/month unit, every extra 15 days empty is roughly $1,000 gone — rent you never get back. We price to lease quickly to qualified tenants, not to chase a number that leaves your unit dark for a month.
Credit pulled, employment letters and pay stubs verified, prior-landlord references called, and rental history confirmed — within the bounds of the Human Rights Code. You see who applied and exactly why we'd recommend them.
Prepare the appropriate lease documentation and coordinate the steps needed to complete the tenancy agreement.
The instinct is to hold out for top dollar. But on a Toronto condo, the cost of an extra few weeks of vacancy usually erases the small premium you were waiting for. A clean, well-priced listing that leases in days to a screened tenant beats a stubborn number that sits. Here's the arithmetic on a typical $2,000/month one-bedroom.
