Gerst offers transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Our management fees typically range from 6% to 10% of monthly rent, with customized packages. Setup costs vary depending on property type and services required.
We use high-quality photography, optimized listings, and targeted digital campaigns on top rental platforms to minimize vacancy and attract qualified tenants fast.
We specialize exclusively in commercial property management across Toronto. This includes office buildings, retail units, industrial properties, and mixed-use commercial developments.
Rent increase guidelines in Ontario do not apply to most commercial properties, as they are governed by the terms of the lease rather than provincial rent control laws. We help ensure all rent adjustments comply with the terms of your commercial lease and applicable legislation.
Our screening process includes credit checks, background reports, employment verification, and landlord references to ensure only reliable tenants are placed.
We handle all legal processes in accordance with the Landlord and Tenant Board regulations, including notices, documentation, and formal eviction proceedings when necessary.
We coordinate all regular maintenance and offer 24/7 emergency repair response through trusted contractors. You’re informed every step of the way.
While self-management is possible, working with a professional property manager saves time, reduces legal risks, and helps you maximize commercial rental income. We handle everything from tenant screening to legal compliance so you don’t have to.
On average, properties we manage are rented within 2–4 weeks, depending on location and market conditions. Our targeted marketing and pre-qualified tenant pool help minimize vacancy time.
We follow a legal process aligned with the Ontario Landlord and Tenant Board guidelines. This includes issuing proper notices, pursuing arrears, and handling eviction if necessary.
We conduct inspections at move-in, move-out, and periodically during the lease to ensure the property is well-maintained and lease terms are followed.
Owners receive monthly payments via direct deposit and access a secure owner portal for financial statements, work orders, and performance metrics.
We manage properties across the entire GTA, including Downtown Toronto, Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough, and surrounding areas, with local expertise tailored to each market.
