Our Transparency Commitment
At KATAN REAL ESTATE Comfort, we are committed to providing honest, helpful guidance for seniors seeking rental accommodation. Part of this commitment includes being completely transparent about our business relationships and any financial arrangements that may influence our recommendations.
This disclosure explains how we maintain our independence while working with carefully selected partners to provide you with the best possible service. We believe that understanding our business model helps you make informed decisions about our recommendations.
All partnerships and affiliations are carefully chosen to align with our values of supporting senior independence, accessibility, and quality of life. We never compromise our professional standards or recommendations for financial gain.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
Property Partner Relationships
We maintain professional relationships with select property owners, estate agents, and housing providers who specialize in senior-friendly accommodation. These relationships work as follows:
- Referral Partnerships: Some property partners may pay us a referral fee when we successfully match a client with suitable accommodation. This fee is paid by the property partner, never by you.
- Preferred Partner Status: We may have preferred relationships with housing providers who consistently meet our quality standards for senior accommodation.
- Commission-Based Arrangements: In some cases, we may receive a commission based on successful placements, similar to traditional estate agency arrangements.
- No Hidden Costs: Any fees we receive from partners do not increase your costs or affect the rental prices you pay.
Important: Our recommendations are based on suitability for your needs, not on commission rates. We maintain strict professional standards regardless of financial arrangements.
Service Provider Affiliations
We work with various service providers who assist with the housing transition process:
Moving and Removal Services
We may receive referral fees from removal companies that specialize in senior relocations.
These partnerships allow us to recommend vetted, senior-friendly service providers.
Accessibility Consultants
Professional relationships with occupational therapists and accessibility specialists.
These professionals maintain independent practices; we may receive courtesy referral acknowledgments.
Insurance and Legal Services
Partnerships with providers of tenant insurance and legal advisory services.
Referral arrangements help ensure you access appropriate professional protection.
Community Services
Connections with senior centers, community groups, and social organizations.
These are typically non-commercial relationships focused on community integration.
Financial Relationship Transparency
We maintain clear boundaries around financial relationships to ensure objectivity:
Ethical Standards
All partnerships adhere to professional real estate ethics and consumer protection standards.
Balanced Recommendations
We recommend a range of options, including those where we receive no financial benefit.
Client-First Approach
Your needs and preferences always take priority over potential financial gains.
