Where clients come from

  1. Making it yours

    Owners read the lot's zoning, its Official Plan designation, heritage and the conservation authority before design.

  2. Adding a unit or renting it out

    Owners and investors read whether the zoning allows extra units on their lot.

The records to know

OfferDue's tools for this work

Each is sold once, at a flat price that is the same for every business; none is billed monthly. One that is not open to buy yet says so on its page.

What OfferDue does and doesn't do with this business:

  • Listing is free and shows in the order businesses were checked: no business pays for a place, a label or an order on any page.
  • OfferDue takes no fee for a client who finds a listed business, and pays none to anyone for a client.
  • OfferDue's pages say what each record shows and where it comes from: never legal, financial, insurance or inspection advice.

Public-record information, not legal, financial, insurance or inspection advice. A listing on OfferDue is not a recommendation; check licences and references yourself.
