FAQs
-
How much does VADA charge for tenant placement services?
We have a flat fee and we don’t have any hidden charges. Hiring a tenant placement service in Vancouver is easy when you choose us. We also offer discounts for owners who enlist our tenant placement services for multiple properties.
-
How does VADA determine rental rates?
We use our up-to-date market knowledge and experience to determine rental rates for our clients. Whether a studio at the Olympic Village or a 2-bedroom apartment in Coal Harbour, we’ve likely rented homes in your neighbourhood and know what homes are renting for in every area. The condition, whether it’s new, old, or renovated, the size and type of property are also considerations.
-
How long will it take to place a qualified tenant in my rental property?
There’s no one answer since every rental property is unique. The time it takes depends on factors like the current rental market, pricing, location, and competition. A competitively priced property with desirable features, in a sought-after building with no competition, may rent within one or two weeks. A listing in a brand new building with many competing rentals may take longer.
-
Do you stage unfurnished homes for showings?
Our tenant placement services in Vancouver welcome both unfurnished and furnished rentals. However, it’s your choice as the property owner how you want to present your home in the listing. The VADA team is happy to advise you on best practices to optimize showings.
