I Need A Status Certificate

How Can I View My Suite?

Want To Schedule A Viewing For Your Suite?

We are Here to Help!

To request a viewing for sales, or other such similar purposes, please email booking@sagecondos.ca

Requests must be made 48-hours in advance
This way our office can insure the Tenant receives a minimum 24-hour notice
Limit of 1 x viewing per day
Viewings must be between 10AM to 7PM, Monday to Sunday

Weekend and Monday viewings have to be confirmed no later than Friday 3:00 PM.

Keys can be signed out at our office only for appointments that fall during our business hours.

Note that our office is open Monday to Friday from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
We are located at 8 Hickory St. W Unit 2 (entrance facing Spruce St).

If you have your own key set, you simply need to provide the 48 hours’ notice to our office prior to your viewing time.

SPECIAL REMINDER

As per Sage Living policies and practices, we cannot coordinate any Owner viewings between August 25 to September 5th. This brief period is known as ‘Turn-over’ and is when all Tenants move out of their suites, suites are cleaned, repaired, inspected, and new Tenants move into their suites. This is a very busy period of time for our office, trades and Tenants and we cannot coordinate viewings at this time.

Sage Living COVID-19 Unit Viewing Policies

 As Ontario begins to lift restrictions and reopen businesses and services, Sage Living will now reintroduce unit showings for sales and appraisal purposes. Be advised that we have adjusted our policies for unit showings to protect the health and safety of our tenants, clients, and staff members during this time.

 Please review the below revised policies on booking and conducting showings of rental units. We thank you for your cooperation and utmost care when entering an individual’s home.

 

Limit unit entry

To reduce the volume of showings in tenanted units, owners may only schedule showing once a firm offer is presented. Unit owners are welcome to share our virtual tours with prospective buyers. Please click here to redirect to our virtual tours page.

 We also encourage owners to take photos of their suite to share with prospective buyers to prevent multiple showings. Note that tenants must sign a photo release waiver to allow photos of the rental unit to be used for sales purposes. Please forward a copy of your photo release waiver to our Booking Team (booking@sagecondos.ca) and we can coordinate signing with your tenants.

 

Safety measures during showings

 As always, booking requests must be made with at least 48-hour notice to our Booking Team (booking@sagecondos.ca). Tenants reserve the right to refuse unit showings based on safety concerns.

 All visitors to a rental unit must compete and sign our self-assessment waiver form. Any person who has experienced symptoms in the past two weeks will not be allowed to enter the rental unit. Click here for a copy of this form.

 No more than two people may tour a unit at one time. All visitors to a suite must wear PPE (i.e. face mask and gloves). Visitors may not have direct communication with the resident.

 If the above protocols are not followed, Sage Living may not assist with scheduling a showing of your unit.

 

 Risk and Liability

 Any visitor to a rental unit understands the contagious nature of COVID-19 and assumes the risk of exposure or infection.

 Sage Living Management, and all employees thereof, are not liable for any illness (including but not limited to COVID-19), injury, damage, loss, claim arising from a unit showing.

Selling My Suite What's Next?

Are You A Current Owner Who Manages With Sage Living Who Would Like to Sell Their Suite?

Did you want to sell your suite conditionally vacant?

OR

Did you want to sell your suite while keeping your Tenant?

Selling My Suite + Vacant Possession

We understand you would like to sell your suite without keeping your Tenant…

Here are some things to consider and review when attempting to sell your suite without your Tenant

1. Review Your Management Agreement

CLICK HERE FOR A BLANK COPY OF A STANDARD MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

Some Owners have signed management agreements with Sage Living for multiple years.
You may want to double check your management agreement and see if this could potentially affect your services or result in additional charges relating to your management service.

If your sale takes place before the end date of your management agreement, you may consider assigning your management services to the individual purchasing your suite. There is no fee for assigning and transferring your current management service package to the purchaser of the suite.

Should the purchaser not wish to receive management services, you should review the cost of cancelling management services early. This is currently listed at a cost of $950 + HST.
*note this fee may increase should the Owner cancel services after Sage Living has secured a new Tenant for the suite in advance for the following year. Please review Schedule A of your management agreement normally found on pages 12-13.

2. Review Your Lease Agreement

All Owners are provided copies of their most recent lease agreements.

Sage Living will sign standard leases with all Tenants.
Each lease is structured to be a minimum 12-months to a maximum 3-years long.
This means that if you have a Tenant who started their lease in September 2021, this Tenant could renew their lease up until August 27, 2024.

You may want to review your current lease agreement to see if the current Tenant will continue with their lease or cancel their lease. Tenants do reserve a legal right to stay within the suite and continue their fixed lease term. This can cause complications when an Owner would like to sell their suite without a Tenant, but the Tenant would like to continue renting the suite.

We are Here to Help!
Sage Living cannot guarantee being able to relocate your Tenant to a new suite, but our office has had a lot of success in relocating Tenants for Owners.
We can offer this as a unique service where an Owner can recruit members of our staff to assist with this specific and unique service request.

3. Contact Sage Living + Notify Them of The Sale

Its very important to understand that selling your suite may result in one of two scenarios:

2. Cancelling Your Management

CLICK HERE FOR TERMINATION OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT FORM

This process can take more time, does come at a cost to the Owner and may include various other arrangements. No two management cancellations are exactly the same.

This scenario will normally occur when the Owner wishes to sell their suite and the purchaser does not wish to continue with the Owner’s current services contracted through Sage Living.

First - The Owner would review and sign complete the agreement in full and provide payment to Sage Living.
NOTE: Sage Living cannot begin this process without first receiving payment in full

SECOND - Continue to review and complete the steps as needed and dated on the agreement. This includes the Date of Last Rent Collection, Date of Management Cancellation, and Date of Final Accounting

FINAL - The Management Service will terminate as per the arrangements made within the agreement

1. Transferring Your Management

CLICK HERE FOR TRANSFER OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT FORM

This is relatively quick and easy to complete.

This will normally take place when an Owner is selling their suite to someone who would like to continue with the services received by the current Owner.

FIRST - We will require the Owner and the Purchaser complete the Transfer of Management.

SECOND - We will collect the information and work to coordinate the needed adjustments to billing

FINAL - The Management Service will transfer on the provided date within the agreement form

Tenant Relocation Services

Need to Relocate Your Tenant to Help Sell Your Suite?

We are Here to Help!

Tenant Relocation Services are a new feature Owners can use to help relocate their Tenants when attempting to sell their suite with vacant possession.

CLICK HERE FOR A COPY OF THE TENANT RELOCATION WAIVER

While we can’t guarantee being able to relocate your Tenant, Sage Living has a high success rate in assisting Owners by relocating their Tenants to different suites.

You may want to review the agreement to familiarize yourself with the conditions of the arrangement:
1. The Owner will pay a set fee to attempt relocation efforts for a minimum of 2-weeks
2. If relocation efforts take longer than 2-weeks, additional attempts and compensation may be required
3. The Tenant may refuse all relocation efforts made by Sage Living, the Owner or the Owner’s agents and the Owner may need to provide additional compensation directly to the Tenant to help convince the Tenant to relocate
