Multi-family transactions carry more moving pieces than a single-family sale, from The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 governing existing leases to an Appraisal Institute of Canada designated appraiser's report required on larger buildings, and a local agent who handles these regularly moves through that paperwork faster than one encountering it for the first time.
Because the Saskatchewan Real Estate Commission requires every licensee to disclose who they represent, a local agent's relationships with area lawyers, home inspectors and appraisers tend to be established rather than a fresh search each time, which shortens the path from an accepted offer to closing through Information Services Corporation.
That local network is what turns a multi-family deal that could stall over paperwork into one that closes on schedule. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
