Can you help Saint John firms protect against wire fraud?

Yes. We harden mailboxes, monitor for look-alike domains and suspicious forwarding rules, and help you adopt a short call-back procedure for any change in payment instructions. We also run briefings with realistic closing-day scenarios for staff and agents.

What does a first consultation involve?

The first thirty-minute consultation is free. We ask about your office, systems and concerns, offer a candid view of priorities and, where useful, follow with a short written findings note. There is no obligation to proceed.

Can you support agents who use their own devices?

Yes. We use mobile device management and app protection to separate brokerage data from personal content, enforce encryption and updates, and allow remote removal of brokerage data without touching an agent's personal photographs or messages.

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.

Real Estate IT in Saint John, NB

A trusted advisor on technology, in Saint John

Saint John is New Brunswick's largest city. In a market where one fraudulent email can redirect a deposit and one lost laptop can expose a client file, Saint John 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.

A measured first ninety days

The first ninety days with ITRE follow a simple pattern for Saint John 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.

What the local economy asks of your systems

Because Saint John draws on energy, forestry, fisheries, insurance and contact-centre services, 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 Saint John firms design a secure, repeatable route for those records, so that quality of service and quality of protection rise together.

Wire fraud and impersonation risk in Saint John

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

Remote-first, on-site when it counts

Most technology problems are solved without a visit. For Saint John 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 New Brunswick and the neighbouring communities of Montreal, Halifax and Saskatoon.

Keeping Saint John offices working through disruption

In New Brunswick, firms contend with coastal storms, flooding and winter weather. 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.

Who we advise in Saint John

In Saint John our clients include proptech startups, mortgage brokers and reits & asset managers, 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.
