The Commercial Division of the Toronto Real Estate Board

The Members of the Toronto Real Estate Board's (TREB) Commercial Division adhere to a strict set of admission criteria, and only those who have met the standards established by their peers are eligible to become Members. These same standards are used by the Ontario and Canadian real estate associations, and are the mark of a true Commercial REALTOR. Your property or commercial obligation is important and a qualified real estate professional should be one of your most valuable resources and team members. A purchase, lease or sub-lease is a major commitment, for both parties, and requires the services of persons knowledgeable concerning market conditions and industry terms.

Commercial Members know the intricacies of buying/and or selling property, from space planning, zoning information, dealing with municipal governments, environmental problems, architecture, tax assessments, appraisals, financing and market values, to detailed paperwork and closing procedures. TREB'S Commercial REALTORS have agreed to act under and adhere to a strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Business Practice voluntarily established by REALTORS. Their Board Membership obligates them to be fair to the buyer, seller and their colleagues in all transactions.
