How do I find a basement apartment for rent in Hamilton before it’s gone?
Good rentals often go within days. Tell us your budget, move-in date and must-haves — we send matching basement apartments the moment they’re listed, book the showings and help you send a complete application (ID, proof of income, credit report, references) the same day.
Do I pay a fee to rent through Spotter Realty?
No. In most rentals the landlord pays the real estate commission, so our help finding and applying for a rental costs tenants nothing.
What do landlords ask for in Ontario?
Usually a rental application, photo ID, proof of income (pay stubs or an employment letter), a credit report and references. Landlords can ask for first and last month’s rent — not a damage deposit — and must use the Ontario Standard Lease for most residential rentals.
