The Advantages of Immigration on Rental Housing in Canada with David Frattini

“What we found is that basically, about 50% of these
newcomers that are arriving want to be in their first rental
phase within the first month of arriving in Canada.” — David
Frattini

Frattini, the managing partner at Rentals For Newcomers, to
