Find A Home to Lease 

Looking to Lease A New Home?

The task of finding a home or condo to lease in Toronto can be daunting.  Let me use my professional expertise in the market to help you.  Whether you are a student (local or international), young professional, part of a growing family or an empty nester looking to downsize, leasing a property can be a great decision. With Toronto’s current home prices being at a record high, it is becoming very common for young professionals and young families to rent instead of buy.

Toronto and its surrounding areas offer many diverse communities, each with unique characteristics and real estate opportunities. Leasing a property in Toronto can be an excellent way to explore a community and determine whether it’s the right fit for you before purchasing. Some additional benefits of leasing a property include lower up-front costs, increased financial flexibility and fixed maintenance costs. Although it may be tempting to find a property to lease on your own and to sign a lease agreement without any professional advice, doing this can come with difficult consequences.

By using a professional and knowledgeable agent, I can give a better understanding of what properties are renting for in your neighbourhood of interest in order to avoid over paying.  I will also take the time to search for properties that suite your needs and will look out for your best interest by reviewing the lease agreement before signing and negotiating on your behalf.

Process:

1) Please get in touch with me via the contact box below to arrange a consultation.

2) I will send you listings based on your search criteria for you to review

3) I will review the properties of interest to ensure that you are in safe neighbourhood’s and issues that any homes, buildings may have

4) I will set up showings on your behalf, scheduled at a convenient time. 

5) We will review our showings together and figure out if we would like to proceed with an offer.

6) We submit our offer to the listing agent.

7) We find out if we have been accepted (usually 24 hrs from submitting the offer)

8) We take care of our deposit to the listing brokerage (Should be done withing 24 hrs)

9) I will send you full move in instructions for the property you have chosen.
