Real Estate IT in Duncan, BC

A trusted advisor on technology, in Duncan

Duncan is a small city in the Cowichan Valley. In a market where one fraudulent email can redirect a deposit and one lost laptop can expose a client file, Duncan real estate professionals deserve the same quality of counsel they expect from their lawyer and accountant. ITRE brings that discipline to technology: a clear standard, a written plan and a named advisor who will tell you plainly what matters. Our parent practice, SAZ.ca, supplies the strategy layer, so choices are made against a budget and a roadmap.

Support that keeps pace with a closing calendar

Real estate does not slow down for a help desk's business hours. ITRE supports Duncan clients remotely through phone, email and portal, with extended coverage and an escalation path for closing-day problems. When equipment, cabling or a network installation needs hands on site, we coordinate trusted local trades near Duncan, including Langford, Sidney and Ladysmith, and supervise the work against a written scope.

What the local economy asks of your systems

Because Duncan draws on government and public-sector work in the capital region, tourism and hospitality, forestry, marine industries and a growing tech scene, clients and counterparties arrive from many industries and expect modern, professional handling of their information. Offers, mortgage documents and identification arrive by email and phone, and each is a potential point of exposure. We help Duncan firms design a secure, repeatable route for those records, so that quality of service and quality of protection rise together.

A measured first ninety days

The first ninety days with ITRE follow a simple pattern for Duncan firms: stabilise, secure, then improve. We stabilise by inventorying what you own, secure by closing the highest-risk gaps, and improve by agreeing a roadmap with a budget. You receive a short written summary each month and a call with your advisor each quarter.

Wire fraud and impersonation risk in Duncan

Business email compromise is the most expensive everyday threat to real estate firms, and it does not respect city limits. A Duncan brokerage, law office or developer can be targeted simply because deposits and closing funds move through it. Our protection programme pairs hardened mailboxes, domain protection and alerting with a short call-back procedure for any change in payment instructions, and we rehearse it with your staff using realistic closing-day scenarios.

Industry knowledge, not generic IT

Our Duncan engagements draw on practice with real estate teams, home builders and strata corporations, so conversations begin from the vocabulary of your business: trust accounts, subject removals, completion dates, rent rolls and draw schedules. That familiarity shortens discovery, avoids wasteful hardware and ensures the technology we recommend serves the way your transactions are really conducted.

What technology costs for a Duncan firm

Pricing is published as starting-from ranges. Managed IT begins at $89 to $199 per user per month depending on scope, projects start at $2,500, advisory retainers from $1,500 per month and a brokerage cybersecurity assessment from $1,900, all in Canadian dollars with 5% GST added. New Duncan clients receive a 10% launch discount, there is no lock-in, and the first thirty-minute consultation is free.

Keeping Duncan offices working through disruption

On Vancouver Island, firms contend with ferry disruptions, winter windstorms that take out power and a subduction-zone earthquake risk that makes off-island backup essential. A listing office that cannot reach its files, or a sales centre that loses connectivity on launch weekend, bears a real commercial cost. We plan continuity around the way real estate actually operates: cloud-hosted records, tested backups, a second internet path for critical sites and a short written plan that names who calls whom and in what order.
