TECH TIP: Best House Hunting Apps in Canada

 

 

 

 

 

  • REALTOR.CA
    It’s probably the best and easiest to use. I love the ability to stand in front of a building and easily see everything around me – that’s for sale on the MLS and then star your favourites. Easier to use and friendlier than the PC main site – www.realtor.ca. (also, the best Canadian commercial listings)
  • BC ASSESSMENT SITE
    The best site to search listings, assessed values and even home price comparisons.
  • LOOPNET
    Largest commercial website (800,000 commercial listings)
  • SCHOOL LOCATOR *Currently only works for Toronto and the GTA. Coming soon to the rest of Canada.
    Kids? The school locator immediately finds out what the public and Catholic elementary and intermediate school options are and how they were rated by the Fraser Institute. Click on the school and you’ll find out more details, like its five years rating out of 10.
  • HOMETRICS.CA
    Check on every house in Toronto, also rent check and other apps coming.
  • DOCUSIGN
    With the DocuSign mobile app, you can easily sign documents (including offers) right from your phone.
  • HOUSE CREEP Murder, haunted houses? Type in your address and see where someone got killed around you. What? Yes!
