Tenancy issues route through the Landlord and Tenant Board of Ontario under Residential Tenancies Act 2006. We pull a no permit for pricing analysis when required. Each ticket carries documented scope so owners can track work across Downtown and Westdale, with the same paper trail extending to Dundas.

The dispatcher takes the call, the tech arrives, we scope the unit, pull live comps, model the submarket, and present a range with a recommended list price, and we send the owner a close-out report.
