Who will I speak with at ITRE?

You will speak with a senior advisor from the start. ITRE is a sub-brand of SAZ.ca and Sedighi.ca, led by Ali Sedighi, MBA, who has more than seventeen years of delivery experience and personally reviews the guidance we publish.

Real Estate IT in Oak Bay, BC

Technology counsel for real estate in Oak Bay

Oak Bay is an affluent waterfront community in Greater Victoria. For brokerages, developers, property managers and strata corporations in Oak Bay, 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 Oak Bay managing broker follows what the office needs and not what a vendor pays us to sell. Our team works from Vancouver and supports Oak Bay clients remotely, attending in person when a move, installation or closing-week emergency requires it.

Remote-first, on-site when it counts

Most technology problems are solved without a visit. For Oak Bay 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 Vancouver Island and the neighbouring communities of Coombs, Sooke and Central Saanich.

Who we advise in Oak Bay

In Oak Bay our clients include commercial real estate firms, mortgage brokers and real estate teams, 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.

Wire fraud and impersonation risk in Oak Bay

Business email compromise is the most expensive everyday threat to real estate firms, and it does not respect city limits. A Oak Bay 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.

Resilience planning for Oak Bay firms

The practical risks for businesses on Vancouver Island include ferry disruptions, winter windstorms that take out power and a subduction-zone earthquake risk that makes off-island backup essential. Our approach is deliberately modest: protect the records that cannot be recreated, define how quickly each system must return, and test the recovery rather than assume it. For many Oak Bay offices this means immutable backups, a documented recovery order and a yearly table-top exercise that takes ninety minutes.

A measured first ninety days

The first ninety days with ITRE follow a simple pattern for Oak Bay 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.

Plain pricing for Oak Bay 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 Oak Bay firms that engage with us now.

What the local economy asks of your systems

Because Oak Bay 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 Oak Bay firms design a secure, repeatable route for those records, so that quality of service and quality of protection rise together.
