Rental home management in Newmarket.
Newmarket rents to hospital staff, regional employees and families who like a small-town Main Street with GTA access. Owners here are often local residents who moved up or moved away. We manage the whole tenancy, including the lease, rent, maintenance and inspections, and report to you every month with photos and invoices, so the house runs without you having to drive up Yonge.
Newmarket, specifically.
Rental home management in Newmarket: the local picture
Historic Main Street and the blocks around it have Victorian and early 20th-century homes. Gorham-College Manor and Bristol-London have bungalows and back-splits from the 1960s and 1970s, while Glenway, Armitage, Summerhill Estates, Stonehaven and Woodland Hill grew from the 1980s through the 2000s with detached homes and townhouses. Tenants include Southlake Health staff, York Region employees at the regional headquarters on Yonge, families moving up from southern York Region, and commuters using the Barrie GO line at Newmarket station or the VIVA rapidway on Davis Drive.
The Town aims to clear all of its sidewalks and walkways, with primary routes like Davis Drive and Yonge Street done first, so owners rarely shovel the public sidewalk. Windrows are a different story: the Town does not clear them, apart from a limited pilot program, so the lease needs to assign that job. Seasonal maintenance includes furnace and air-conditioning servicing, eavestroughs under mature trees and sump checks. Older homes in the Lower Main Street South heritage district may need approval for exterior work. Non-resident owners face federal withholding on rent, and we keep their records filed.

Will the Town clear the windrow at my Newmarket rental?
Generally no. Newmarket does not clear windrows except through a limited pilot program with restricted applications. For rentals, we assign windrow and driveway clearing to the tenant in the lease or arrange a contractor at your cost, so access stays clear after every plow.
Do you manage older homes in downtown Newmarket?
Yes. Older homes need extra attention to wiring, plumbing and roofs, and exterior work near Main Street may need heritage approval. We inspect, recommend priorities and keep you in control of the budget, with photos of each job attached to the statement.
