DID YOU KNOW?

REALTORS® help RENTERS for FREE*

First, You call or email. You ask questions, we ask questions & if it’s a good fit, we go forward.

First, We send you a RECO GUIDE*

*an INDUSTRY MANDATORY consumers guide outlining rules/regulations of trading in Real Estate & our duties to you

You read it over and if you like what you see, you sign it (in person, or through digital signature)

take note A RECO GUIDE IS NOT A CONTRACT!

Signing this does not obligate you to us, or us to you

Next up is QUESTION TIME !!!!!

We ask you things a landlord would ask you.

Your credit score
Rental References
Employment Letters
If you have pets
If you have certain needs in a property (no stairs, mandatory concierge, etc, etc)

Followed by property related questions; when & where you want to move, budget etc.

Now the fun part, THE PROPERTY SEARCH.

As REALTORS® we can have first access to listings you may not find on usual searches

+ create customized searches to your most specific needs.

We make calls, book places, accompany you to ALL showings & ask and answer questions on your behalf,

while negotiating terms of a future lease.

Ensuring you are not signing a bad lease, or worse, being SCAMMED!

Once you are ready to see a listing/put in offers you sign a

“BUYER REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT”

Consider this our “CONTRACT”. We now represent you exclusively in SOME capacity. Every buyer rep is different

(SIDE BAR, before you EVER sign something, always read it over! Maybe even twice) 😁

______________________________________________________________________

When you work with a REALTOR® and we find you a place, we do get paid.

Usually, a half month’s rent from your new landlord.

However, NO DEAL, NO MONEY, you just WALK AWAY!

*At least in Ontario. Every place is different
