Once you have acquired that perfect investment property, now it's time to find the perfect tenant. So how do we find someone qualified, someone responsible, someone who will maintain the property with the same care and attention to detail as you would? Glad you asked.
We can tell you from years of experience in the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge and Guelph rental markets that how your property is positioned and how your tenants are pre-qualified matters. With the right approach and plan, the odds of finding that elusive perfect tenant increase exponentially.
We will treat your investment with the same level of care and attention to detail that we bring to all of our properties - for sale or lease. We will handle the marketing, promotion, showings, applications, negotiations and paperwork so that you can enjoy a stress-free and profitable investment.
While many companies may downscale their offerings for leased properties, at TrilliumWest we take the same care and approach to our lease properties as we do with each of our carefully curated resale properties.
Lease listings at TrilliumWest receive the same professional photography and industry-leading internet advertising that you have come to expect from the Regional leader in property promotion. This includes (but is not limited to) professional photography, TW Marketing, social media posts and listing on realtor.ca.
Great paperwork makes for great tenants, that has always been a true statement, and your TrilliumWest Realtor® is loaded with supporting paperwork you need. Offers to lease, rental applications, credit checks and even pre-qualifying questions to determine a tenants character. We have it all covered.
The government of Ontario now has a standardized lease which restricts much of the wording and responsibilities set out in residential leases. However, we have developed a customized schedule that can be included as an addendum to your lease and help better protect your interests.
Professional services and the relationship with your trusted Realtor® shouldn't end when the lease is signed or your property is occupied. As a company, we have an extensive network of true local professionals that can help with everything from home repairs to legal and tax advice. If you are not from the area, it can be a challenge to find trusted professionals to work with you on your properties and investment goals. Our network of vetted professionals is always standing by to help in any way.
Finding the right tenant means years of refinement, experience and knowledge coupled with the right tools. Here’s what we got in our belt:
