Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Who is the property manager for The Dovercourt?

A: Martin Group is a real estate brokerage, not the property manager for The Dovercourt. We do not handle maintenance requests, condo fees, status certificates, bylaws, amenity bookings or parking — for any of those, contact the building’s property management company directly. Management companies change from time to time, so check your most recent fee statement or status certificate for the current contact. What we do is help people buy and sell at The Dovercourt. Current listings at The Dovercourt are at the top of this page.

Q: Can I rent out a unit at The Dovercourt?

A: Yes. Long-term rentals are permitted here — Ontario condo corporations can set conditions such as a minimum lease term, but they do not prohibit long-term leasing outright. Short-term rentals are a different matter: most corporations in Oakville and Burlington prohibit them, so do not count on running an Airbnb-style rental here. The exact rules are in the building’s declaration, bylaws and rules, which come with the status certificate — have your lawyer review them before you go firm. We can also tell you what units here are currently leasing for. Call (905) 338-2083.
