Who handles Saskatoon investment property transactions?

A Saskatoon investment property transaction involves a real estate agent to find and negotiate the deal, a lawyer to transfer title through Information Services Corporation and close the sale, and typically a lender who underwrites the purchase differently than an owner-occupied home.

The agent's job includes confirming what the property is actually worth against sold comparables and whether any secondary suite is legal, since the City of Saskatoon requires a permit before a unit's income can be counted by a lender or appraiser.

The lawyer's role does not change based on the buyer's intent to rent the property out; they still handle the title search, mortgage discharge if applicable, and closing documents the same way as any residential sale. What changes is the lender's underwriting, which treats rental income conservatively and typically requires 20 percent down.
