Do you provide legal or compliance advice?

No. We are an IT services and consulting firm. We build the technical controls and evidence that your lawyer or compliance officer specifies for obligations such as FINTRAC record keeping, PIPEDA and BC PIPA, and we are happy to work alongside your advisors.

Is there a contract lock-in for Sardis clients?

No. After onboarding, engagements run month to month. You retain ownership of your domains, accounts and data from the first day, and we provide a documented handover if you decide to leave.

How quickly can a Sardis brokerage be onboarded?

A typical brokerage is onboarded in stages over four to eight weeks, beginning with identity and email protection. Timing depends on the number of users and devices and on how much needs to be migrated, and we schedule changes around your closing calendar.

Real Estate IT in Sardis, BC

Technology counsel for real estate in Sardis

A major neighbourhood of Chilliwack. For brokerages, developers, property managers and strata corporations in Sardis, ITRE provides senior-led technology advice and hands-on delivery, under the direction of Ali Sedighi, MBA. We are an IT services and consulting firm, not a reseller, which means a recommendation to a Sardis managing broker follows what the office needs and not what a vendor pays us to sell. Our team works from Vancouver and supports Sardis clients remotely, attending in person when a move, installation or closing-week emergency requires it.

Keeping Sardis offices working through disruption

In the Fraser Valley, firms contend with Fraser River flood risk, winter storms and summer heat that stress server rooms and cabling closets. 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.

Plain pricing for Sardis offices

We list our prices because a managing broker should not need a meeting to learn the order of magnitude. Starting points are $89 to $199 per user per month for managed IT, $2,500 for projects, $1,500 per month for senior advisory and $1,900 for a cybersecurity assessment. Terms are month-to-month, GST is added, and a 10% launch discount applies to Sardis firms that engage with us now.

Protecting client information in Sardis

Real estate files are rich in personal information: identification, income, banking and family details. For Sardis firms, BC's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and, for cross-border activity, PIPEDA set the standard for how that information must be collected, protected and retained, and reporting entities have further record-keeping duties. We do not give legal advice, but we build the access controls, retention schedules and audit trails that your lawyer and compliance officer need to rely on.

Who we advise in Sardis

In Sardis our clients include appraisers, strata corporations and brokerages, along with the lawyers, lenders and managers who work beside them. Each group has distinct records, regulators and risks, which is why we maintain separate service profiles for them. A strata council has little in common with a developer's sales centre, yet both depend on trustworthy records and careful handling of personal information.

Beginning the relationship

A typical start for a Sardis client is a thirty-minute conversation with a senior advisor, followed by a short written findings note: what we saw, what matters most and what we would do first. If you proceed, we onboard in stages, beginning with identity and email protection, and then devices, backups and the longer-term roadmap. You keep ownership of your accounts, domains and data at every stage.

Remote-first, on-site when it counts

Most technology problems are solved without a visit. For Sardis firms we resolve the large majority remotely, with the agent's consent, and reserve site visits for installations, moves and incidents that need physical attention. Where local labour is needed, we manage it, drawing on contacts throughout the Fraser Valley and the neighbouring communities of Aldergrove, Ryder Lake and Ruskin.

What the local economy asks of your systems

Because Sardis draws on agriculture and agri-food processing, trucking and logistics, manufacturing, healthcare and a fast-growing commuter workforce, 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 Sardis firms design a secure, repeatable route for those records, so that quality of service and quality of protection rise together.
