How quickly can a Surrey 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.

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.

Does ITRE support real estate firms in Surrey?

Yes. We serve brokerages, developers, property managers, strata corporations and the professionals who work with them in Surrey. Most support is delivered remotely from Vancouver, and we coordinate on-site work through trusted local trades when a visit is required.

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.

Real Estate IT in Surrey, BC

Technology counsel for real estate in Surrey

Surrey is one of Canada's fastest-growing cities, in Metro Vancouver. For brokerages, developers, property managers and strata corporations in Surrey, 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 Surrey managing broker follows what the office needs and not what a vendor pays us to sell. Our team works from Vancouver and supports Surrey clients remotely, attending in person when a move, installation or closing-week emergency requires it.

Beginning the relationship

A typical start for a Surrey 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 Surrey 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 British Columbia and the neighbouring communities of Abbotsford, Victoria and Vancouver.

What technology costs for a Surrey firm

The Surrey property landscape

Real estate activity in British Columbia sits within technology, trade, natural resources, film, tourism and a strong professional-services base. That mix shapes the technology a firm needs: a residential brokerage depends on responsive mobile systems and a clean CRM, a developer needs dependable site connectivity and secure approvals, and a property or strata manager needs accurate records for owners. ITRE tailors its standards to the type of real estate business, rather than treating Surrey as a single undifferentiated market.

Wire fraud and impersonation risk in Surrey

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

Keeping Surrey offices working through disruption

In British Columbia, firms contend with seismic, wildfire and flood events that vary sharply by region. 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.

Industry knowledge, not generic IT

Our Surrey engagements draw on practice with property managers, mortgage brokers and land developers, 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.
