Tenant Issue Protocols

The lease that we have with the tenants of your property governs our conduct with them. Written with extensive consultation with lawyers familiar with the residential tenancies act, our lease is comprehensive yet simple for all parties to understand. Our approach to tenancy communication is to be as open and forthcoming about the tenant’s experience as we can be.
