In brief

How a cash for keys plays out.

Here's the process in four steps. For the full detail — free — read our step-by-step guide; the kit itself gives you the ready-to-use templates and scripts.

Assess

Measure the gap between the current rent and the market, and what a repossession adds to the property's value. That's what justifies — and frames — your offer.

Approach

Present the idea of a paid voluntary move-out, with tact and no pressure. The tenant should feel like a winner, not pushed out.

Agree

Negotiate a fair amount and set the terms: move-out date, walkthrough, payment. Everything gets put in writing.

Formalize

Sign the voluntary move-out agreement with a release. The unit is freed up cleanly — you can re-rent at market price.

Legal, voluntary, no nasty surprises.

A cash for keys is nothing like an eviction. It's a free and paid agreement: the tenant agrees to leave in exchange for compensation, in writing, without undue pressure. Done right, the process is perfectly legal in Quebec and respects the framework of Québec's rental board, the TAL. The kit is designed precisely to help you stay on the right side of things — but it doesn't replace legal advice for a specific case.

Frequently asked questions

Is the cash for keys kit really free?

Yes. The kit is offered free in exchange for your email. No card, no commitment. We send it to you and you do whatever you want with it.

Is the voluntary move-out agreement template valid in Quebec?

The template covers the essential clauses of a paid voluntary move-out agreement in Quebec (identification, amount, key handover date, release, voluntary nature). It's a template to adapt to your situation; for a specific case, have it reviewed by a professional. It does not constitute legal advice.

How much should I offer my tenant for a cash for keys?

There is no amount set by law: the compensation is negotiated freely. The kit includes a calculation grid that starts from the gap between the current rent and the market rent, the number of months of gain and the value created at the property, to frame a reasonable and profitable offer.
