Leasing Services

We lease it. You manage it.

Our leasing service prices your rental, markets it, runs the showings, screens every applicant, and puts a signed Ontario lease in your hands. Then we hand you the keys and you carry on managing your own property. No management agreement, no monthly fee, nothing ongoing.

Who this is for

Plenty of owners are perfectly capable of running their own rental. Finding the right resident is the part that rewards doing it every week instead of once every few years.

You manage your own property

You collect the rent, you take the maintenance calls, and you would rather keep it that way. You just do not want to be the one screening strangers and writing the lease.

You are renting one out for the first time

You moved, you inherited it, or you just finished a basement unit. The first tenancy sets the tone for every year after it, and it needs to start on the correct lease at a realistic rent.

You own a student house

Large houses lease on a calendar, not on demand, and rents on four and five bedroom homes have moved. Pricing and timing decide your year far more than day-to-day management does.

What we do, start to finish

Six steps, one fee, and a clear end point.

01

Price it properly

A rent range built from comparable homes that actually leased nearby, not from what other owners are asking and not getting.

02

Prepare and market it

Photography, a written listing that answers the questions renters ask, and syndication across rentals.ca, Kijiji, Zumper, View It and more.

03

Field enquiries and show it

We answer the calls and messages, qualify who is worth a viewing, and run the showings. You are not meeting strangers at the door on a Saturday.

04

Screen every applicant

Credit, employment and income verification, landlord references, and identity. You approve the final applicant, always.

05

Paper it correctly

The Ontario standard lease with the right schedules, signed digitally, and first and last month collected before anyone gets a key.

06

Hand it over

Keys, the signed lease, your resident's contact details, and the deposit funds come to you. Then our work is finished and yours begins.

Where our work ends

We would rather you know this before you hire us than after. Leasing is a one-time job with a hard finish line.

Included in the leasing fee

  • Rent pricing and a written recommendation
  • Photography and listing copy
  • Syndication to the major rental portals
  • Enquiry handling and qualification
  • Showings run by a KEILTY leasing agent
  • Full screening on every applicant
  • Ontario standard lease and schedules, signed digitally
  • First and last month's rent collected
  • Handover of keys, lease, contacts and funds

Stays with you

  • Monthly rent collection and receipts
  • Arrears, notices and anything at the Landlord and Tenant Board
  • Maintenance calls, trades and emergencies
  • Inspections during the tenancy
  • Utilities, insurance and compliance
  • Annual rent increases and renewals
  • The next turnover, unless you hire us again

If that list is the reason you are here, you want full management instead. The table below compares the two honestly.

What it costs

Leasing Services

1 month's rent + HST, on success
  • Nothing is payable unless a resident signs and their deposit is collected
  • No monthly fee and no onboarding fee
  • No management agreement, and nothing to cancel
  • One written quote for your property before you commit to anything

Same leasing work, same screening standard and same lease we use for our full-management owners. The only difference is what happens the day after the keys change hands.

Leasing only vs full management

A $2,200 per month house in year one, HST included, assuming one new tenancy.

 Leasing onlyFull management
Leasing fee, one month's rent$2,486$2,486
Onboarding and property setup$339
Management, 12 months$2,020
Year one$2,486$4,845
Every year after, same resident$0$2,020
Who collects rent, handles repairs and the LTBYouKEILTY

Management figures use $149 + HST per unit per month and a one-time $300 + HST onboarding fee. HST at 13%. Maintenance coordination is 10% of any invoice we arrange, and a lease renewal we handle for a management client is 25% of one month's rent. Your own numbers are confirmed in writing before you sign.

The honest read. Leasing only is the cheaper number, and it is not close. What the extra buys is the other twelve months: the arrears conversation, the furnace at eleven at night, a notice that has to be served correctly the first time, the renewal. If you already handle those well, pay us once and keep the rest of your money. If you would rather never handle them again, that is what full management costs, and every fee is published on our single-family management page.

You can change your mind later

Starting with leasing does not close the door on management. If you get six months into a tenancy and decide you would rather hand the day-to-day over, we can take on a tenancy we started. Ask and we will put a quote in writing.
