For Calgary Realtors: A Property Management Partner You Can Trust
We understand how hard you’ve worked to build trust with your clients, and we’re here to protect that relationship, not replace it.
At our company, we do not poach. Unlike some property management companies that quietly build long-term relationships with your clients and then list their home behind your back, we do the opposite. When you refer a client to us, that client stays yours. Period.
This promise is not just verbal - it’s written into our contract. We explicitly outline that:
We value our relationships with local Realtors and believe in long-term collaboration built on trust, transparency, and professionalism. You can feel confident referring your clients to us for property management, knowing they will be well cared for, and that they’ll return to you when it’s time to sell.
- Your Client Stays Your Client
We never poach. Your client relationship is protected in writing with a clear clause in our management agreement stating that when your client is ready to sell, they’ll be referred back to you without exception.
- Referral Protection Is in Our Contract
Our property management agreement clearly states that we will not solicit or advertise to your client, and we will refer them back to you when it’s time to sell.
- Zero Commission Conflict
We don’t compete with Realtors. We don’t list, we don’t double-end, and we don’t take a cut. We’re here to manage, not market.
- Professional, Respectful Representation
Your client is treated with the highest level of professionalism, care, and communication — reflecting well on you and your referral.
- Full Transparency
We keep you updated (if desired), notify you of important changes, and ensure you’re never out of the loop.
- We Make You Look Good
When your client experiences smooth, stress-free management, it only strengthens their trust in you as their Realtor. You stay top-of-mind because we make sure of it.

- FAQ Questions
Explore Answers to Your Common Questions
What is included in your Initial lease fee/start-up fee of $500+GST?
Our initial leasing/start-up fee is a one-time fee that includes everything needed to professionally market your property and secure the right tenant. Remember you PAY NOTHING upfront. It is taken out of the rental amount only when we find you a great tenant. This covers high-end photography, a detailed iGuide 3D virtual tour, RMS-compliant measurements, and a floor plan. We handle advertising costs on Rentfaster, key duplication, and full applicant screening, including a credit check for each adult tenant. We manage all communication, coordinate and host multiple open houses, and thoroughly review all applications. Once the ideal tenant is selected, we prepare the lease agreement, conduct a detailed move-in inspection with photos and videos, and complete all building-required documentation and intercom setup on your behalf, ensuring a seamless and professional tenant onboarding experience.
Is your fee higher than what other companies charge?
At just $500 + GST, our initial leasing fee/start-up fee offers incredible value compared to many other Calgary property management companies, whose leasing fees typically range from $775 to over $1500, in addition to a higher monthly property managemement percentage (we charge 10%, not 12%). We do not charge you any marketing fees. While others may charge significantly more for similar services, we pride ourselves on providing high-quality marketing, professional photography, virtual tours, tenant screening, and property showings - without inflating the cost. Our goal is to deliver premium results while keeping your upfront investment low. With us, you get big-agency results without the big-agency price tag.
Do I have to pay anything up front?
No, you DON'T PAY ANYTHING until we’ve placed a tenant in your property and management officially begins. Our initial leasing fee and the monthly fee are collected from the monthly rent, so there are no up-front costs or surprise charges.
When will you as the property owner get paid?
The property owners get paid by CIR REALTY Property Management via direct bank deposit between the 10th and the 15th of the following month - as outlined in the Management Agreement.
I am a Realtor. Is it safe to refer my client to you and expect that you won't steal my client away? How can we ensure that?
We understand how hard you’ve worked to build trust with your clients, and we’re here to protect that relationship, not replace it.
At our company, we do not poach. Unlike some property management companies that quietly build long-term relationships with your clients and then list their home behind your back, we do the opposite. When you refer a client to us, that client stays yours. Period.
This promise is not just verbal - it’s written into our contract. We explicitly outline that:
-
We will not market real estate services to your client
-
We will not advertise homes for sale to them
-
We will not compete for the future listing
-
And when your client is ready to sell, we refer them straight back to you
We value our relationships with local Realtors and believe in long-term collaboration built on trust, transparency, and professionalism. You can feel confident referring your clients to us for property management, knowing they will be well cared for - and that they’ll return to you when it’s time to sell.
Can I read your management agreement to see if it works for me before signing anything?
Absolutely. We believe in full transparency and want you to feel confident before moving forward. You’ll receive a copy of our management agreement to review at your own pace. We’re also happy to walk you through it, answer any questions, and make sure you’re comfortable with every detail before you sign.
