Ask the Registrar:
Pre-closing visits
My client is buying a property with a basement apartment, and they would like to bring a potential tenant to the pre-closing visit. How should I handle this situation?
Remember: during pre-closing visits the property still belongs to the seller. As such, the visits are usually open only to the buyer and their real estate salesperson or broker. If anybody other than the buyer plans to attend the pre-closing visit, you should obtain the seller’s permission first.

- The homepage is cleaner and better organized, so it’s easier to find what you need.
- We’ve created a new hub for our discipline activities so that enforcement decisions are more accessible.
- Public advisories and information on filing a complaint are front-and-centre, providing greater clarity about our regulatory role.
