Tenant Placement · End-to-End Leasing
End-to-end tenant placement, managed
From the first listing photo to the move-in inspection, MoveSmart runs the entire placement workflow for your unit. You see every showing, application, and screening decision in the portal - and you only pay a success fee when the lease is signed.
The friction
What goes wrong without a structured placement process
Friction
Mispriced listings sit vacant
Owners who guess at asking rent either leave money on the table or over-price and watch the unit sit for six-to-eight weeks. Either outcome costs a full month of rent in the Ontario market.
Friction
Photos and copy that do not convert
Phone photos, no floor plan, and generic listing copy get buried in the Realtor.ca feed. You end up paying for showings that never happen.
Friction
Unscreened applicants slip through
Without documented credit, employment, and reference checks, owners sign leases on faith - and find out the mistake at month three, when rent stops arriving.
Friction
Paperwork gaps invite LTB risk
Missing riders, un-initialed addenda, or the wrong lease form can undo your position at the Landlord and Tenant Board before the tenancy even starts.
