Partnership makes critical property data more accessible, easier to understand
THORNHILL, ON, December 8, 2020 – An extended partnership between Ontario proptech innovators Protect Your Boundaries Inc. (PYB) and Teranet Inc. is accelerating the technology and data revolution disrupting the real estate and property sectors.
Protect Your Boundaries and Teranet today announced plans to empower real estate agents and other land professionals with expanded online access to a new suite of property information and resources through Teranet’s GeoWarehouse® online solution
“This is what the future looks like for the real estate and property industries,” said Chris Kamarianakis, CEO of Protect Your Boundaries. “Technology is driving dramatic changes in the way real estate professionals and brokerages do business. Industry leaders are looking for ways to adapt and continue to add value for their clients. Protect Your Boundaries and Teranet are here to help by making new tools and resources available to provide homebuyers and sellers with the information they need to mitigate risk and close deals faster while protecting everyone involved.”
Protect Your Boundaries is Ontario’s most comprehensive online resource for identifying, resolving, and preventing land title and property boundary issues that can complicate and jeopardize real estate transactions. GeoWarehouse® is a web-based property information solution that provides state-of-the-art mapping, research tools and reports for real estate across the province. GeoWarehouse® makes it easy to obtain valuable information about a property, its sales history, comparable market analysis, neighbourhood and market intelligence, demographics and more.
The partnership will enable land professionals across Ontario to purchase Protect Your Boundaries Buyer’s Reports, Seller’s Reports and Easement Reports through the GeoWarehouse® e-Store. These reports aggregate information from official land records into an easy-to-read document for each property. The GeoWarehouse® solution will also provide access to PYB’s easement counter technology, which is powered by an algorithm that shows how many easements affect each and every property in Ontario. Protect Your Boundaries will also be developing new GeoWarehouse® course content for PYB’s industry-leading BoundaryWise Academy certification program.
Kamarianakis said the partnership adds an exciting new chapter to Protect Your Boundaries’ history of collaboration with Teranet focused on providing the tools, knowledge and training that land professionals need to grow their expertise, better serve their customers and maintain a thriving business.
