Review Highlights

Edmond Chor

The Jovi team was professional and great help. I have little to no intervention during the rental period as a landlord (2.8 years), all were looked after by the team. Special mention is Joe Chan, he was particularly helpful. The tenant and I had a dispute and Joe was professional and guide me very step of the way until dispute resolution, these are all extra time and effort from them beyond the standard services. I would definitely use them again.

If you are a newcomer to Canada and do not your rights completely – I 100% do not recommend Jovi Realty to anyone. My agents were Cindy Tse and Ken Law.
They will be nice to you in the beginning to distract your attention from the tricks they do to take advantage of you.
Specific examples:
1. On the moving-in day, they will give you Condition Inspection Report and will tick mark that in the end of tenancy you agree with condition of the unit. It means that if they think you damaged anything, they already have this tick mark ready that you agreed to pay them back. Very smart.
2. When they asked us to move-out 4 months before 1-year contract ends, we asked why landlord wants us to leave since we paid rent on time and don’t have incidents. They said they don’t know why and didn’t explain the reason. Of course, they did know, very smart here. Then they will give Mutual Agreement to end tenancy and will look at to sign in front of them. Very smart trick as well. So using this trick (by forcing us to sign mutual agreement without giving time to consider), they just saved the landlord 1-month rent compensation ($2500+) when they ask tenants to leave without any reason.

I am happy for the Jovi Realty that they are staying profitable and saving money for the landlords by taking advantage of tenants.

For the prospective tenants – be very cautious with Jovi Realty. I am sure they have many other tricks prepared to take advantage of you that we don’t even know.

If you can, try to avoid this company. As mentioned in a few other reviews, it feels a little peculiar.

After having done a viewing and sending out the documents for the application, we have heard nothing since. Complete silence.

If this silence happened to occur because the property owners decided to move forward with another application, then I would find it obligatory for a business representing their clients to communicate that to other applicants who are waiting.

Please give this some careful consideration before you start reaching out to their listings and be mindful of foreign involvement when it comes to sharing personal information.

Joe Chan was fantastic! He provided friendly and attentive service, while always responding promptly. Would definitely recommend renting any of the buildings that he manages.
