Let Us Know What You Thought Of The Episode

This week’s episode is a must-listen for landlords who are feeling the pinch of today’s shifting rental market. Vacancies are sitting longer, rents are flattening or even dropping in some areas, and competition between landlords is picking up fast. That pressure can lead to rushed decisions — and that’s often where costly mistakes begin.

To break down what’s really happening across Canada, I’m joined by Mackenzie Wilson from SingleKey, one of the most trusted platforms for tenant screening, rent guarantee services, and landlord risk management. Their team has access to national data most landlords never see, and the insights they’re uncovering are incredibly valuable.

In this episode, we get into:
• How tenant applications are changing and why more landlords are seeing weaker files
• What SingleKey’s national data reveals about current renter behaviour and overall risk
• The key parts of a tenant report that truly matter and the red flags that shouldn’t be overlooked
• Simple, proactive habits that help landlords stay sharp during slower rental periods
• How rent guarantee programs can protect your cash flow when the market becomes unpredictable

If you’re managing rentals — whether it’s one unit or a full portfolio — this conversation will give you practical insight to protect your property, your income, and your peace of mind. It’s timely, relevant, and packed with takeaways you can actually use.
