For landlords · Montreal, Laval and Longueuil

Tenant placement. From available rental to signed lease.

AA Location handles marketing, inquiries and viewings, then helps you review applications through to lease signing, coordinated by a real estate broker. You make the final choice.

Your property, your decisions. Support at each step.

A complete service for renting out your property

Tenant placement brings together the work of marketing a rental and presenting applicants to its owner. AA Location helps reduce the time you spend on inquiries, coordinates viewings and reviews applications using objective criteria.

You can use the service for a condo, a duplex or a unit in a rental building. Ongoing property management is a separate service that can be discussed according to your needs.

A clear process, from the first conversation to signing

We discuss the scope and steps with you based on the property, its availability and the services you need.

  1. Understand your property

    The free evaluation is a chance to discuss the unit, location, inclusions, availability and your circumstances. We clarify the proposed service and fees before work begins.

    Your role

    You share your needs and the property details.

  2. Prepare the listing

    We prepare the presentation and listing using the property's actual features. The asking rent, photos, inclusions and viewing arrangements give prospective tenants clear information.

    Your role

    You confirm the property information and proposed terms.

  3. Coordinate inquiries and viewings

    We receive inquiries, answer questions about the unit and coordinate viewings around agreed availability. Application follow-up saves you from managing every exchange yourself.

    Your role

    You agree on access and availability for viewings.

  4. Review applications

    We review relevant information and references with appropriate consent. The assessment uses objective criteria related to the rental, and any points that need clarification are discussed with the applicant.

    Your role

    You review the applications presented and choose the tenant.

  5. Coordinate lease signing

    A real estate broker coordinates communication and signing between you and the selected applicant. The lease is between the landlord and the tenant.

    Your role

    You confirm the terms and sign the lease with the tenant.

A respectful approach to application review

Screening helps inform your decision. It cannot guarantee future rent payments or prevent every difficulty. Information requests should be limited to what is necessary to assess the application, with appropriate consent.

  • Objective criteria related to the rental
  • Relevant information and appropriate consent for checks
  • Clear discussion of outstanding questions before your decision

You choose. A broker coordinates the signing.

AA Location organizes the process and presents applications. You retain the final decision. A broker coordinates the final stage with both parties; the landlord and tenant remain the people signing the lease.

Before you list with us

How much does tenant placement cost?

Request a free evaluation to discuss the property and the scope of service you need. Fees, inclusions and terms should be clear before you commit. We do not publish a single price here because the scope must first be defined.

How long will it take to find a tenant?

Timing depends on the asking rent, property condition, availability and applications received. We discuss these factors during the evaluation. A rental date or outcome cannot be guaranteed.

Who chooses the tenant?

The landlord does. AA Location organizes applications and reviews the files to support an informed decision. Criteria should be objective and related to the rental.

How are applicants screened?

Checks are defined according to the application and carried out with appropriate consent. They may include rental references and payment history. Information collection should be limited to what is necessary; an unusual application calls for clarification, not automatic rejection.

What does the real estate broker do?

The broker coordinates communication and lease signing with the landlord and selected applicant. AA Location is not the tenant: the lease is between the landlord and the tenant.

Do I also need property management?

No. Placement supports the rental process through to lease signing. Ongoing management is an additional service you can discuss separately if you need it.

What happens after I request an evaluation?

Your request helps prepare a conversation about the property, your needs and availability. The team discusses the proposed service, next steps and applicable fees with you before the work starts.

Tell us about the property you want to rent out.

Use the form to share your location and what you need. We can then discuss the property, scope of service and next steps.
