A detached house in Stoney Creek doesn't rent the same way a Westdale student triplex does. Rent pricing, tenant profile, turnover frequency, and maintenance costs all behave differently. We've managed hundreds of these properties across Hamilton, Burlington, and Kitchener and built our process around what they need.
Most single-family tenants are families or couples planning to stay two to five years. Turnover is lower than student or shared-housing rentals, but vacancy hurts more because the rent is higher. Our 21-day leasing guarantee exists for that reason. The longer a single-family home sits empty, the more it costs you.
Kate Mackay, our founder, owns single-family rentals herself. The company is built around what she wished her property manager had done when she was self-managing: answer the phone, run the numbers like an owner, and put the guarantees in writing instead of in marketing copy.

Most single-family rentals fall within a standard percentage of monthly rent for full-service management, plus a one-time leasing fee when we place a tenant. No sign-up fees, no inspection fees, no renewal fees for existing tenants. See full property management pricing, or request a free quote for exact numbers on your property within 24 hours.
Yes. Most of our owners start with one rental. Some grow to four or five with us over a few years. We don't have a minimum door count.
Detached houses, semis, townhouses (freehold and condo), condo apartments, and duplexes rented as a single unit. We also handle executive and luxury rentals where the tenant pool is smaller and pricing matters more.
Every applicant goes through credit, income, employment, and rental history checks. We call previous landlords directly. We verify employment with the employer, not just a pay stub. The same scoring rubric is used on every file so decisions are consistent. See our full screening process.
We take over occupied properties regularly. We review the existing lease, introduce ourselves to the tenants, transfer the last month's deposit, and set up rent collection from the next rent cycle. No disruption to your tenants and no gap in service for you.
Yes. A large portion of our clients are out-of-town landlords who own in Hamilton, Burlington, or Kitchener but live elsewhere in Canada or abroad. We handle inspections, tenant communication, maintenance, and reporting. You get full visibility through the owner portal.
We coordinate with your real estate agent, give the tenant proper notice under the Residential Tenancies Act, and manage showings. If you want to sell to another investor and keep the tenant in place, we can introduce you to investors in our network.
Yes. We file the N4 the day the grace period ends, file at the LTB if needed, and represent the file through to resolution. You get weekly updates and a full paper trail.
