Hey, Neil,
Exactly what Martin and Thomas said. My last two purchases were done here in Calgary with DocuSign. This is common practice now. If your realtor is having problems... I suggest you get a second opinion. This does not add up. I used Bill at https://www.calgarylaw.com/ twice now and he...
Another video of showing how to use digital signing and how you can get free electronic signatures to sign and renew leases while practicing social distancing. This video is a little more on the how-to side of things which is helpful if you're not very technical.

Hey Everyone,
With current economic uncertainty environment (understatement of the year) of covid-19 (covid-19) that we are in.

Phone in to TVS and tell them you're a REIN Member, you'll get ~50% discount on the services. Dropping the credit check from $21 to $11 if you still want to use them.
I should clarify that the Notice to Tenant tool is apart of the Tenant Verification Services, at www.landlordcreditbureau.ca and it is free to use.
Also the CEO, Merv spoke at a YYC REIN Meeting late 2017 or early 2018 and spoke of possibly starting to pay landlords to report the monthly...
