How we picked

These picks come from dedicated research for real-estate investors and landlords, which drew on issuers' published terms and independent sources — listed under “sources” on each pick. The order is the research's. Every fee, welcome offer and earn rate shown on a pick is the figure our catalogue holds for that card, the same one its card page shows. Nothing here is pay-to-rank. Business cards appear only on business guides, student cards only on student guides, and prepaid cards on none. A figure we do not hold is shown as “Not confirmed”, never as a zero. Each researched shortlist is marked as pending editorial review until the site's editor approves it.

Questions

Frequently asked

What is the best credit card for real-estate investors and landlords in Canada?

The best card for real-estate investors and landlords in Canada depends on your exact spending and credit. The shortlist above holds 7 cards for this profile, each chosen because it fits real-estate investors and landlords: business cards for property investors — high limits and a big welcome bonus on renovation, supply, and services spend, plus tools to track expenses per property and separate portfolios.

How did you choose these cards for real-estate investors and landlords?

These picks come from dedicated research for real-estate investors and landlords, which drew on issuers' published terms and independent sources — listed under “sources” on each pick. The order is the research's. Every fee, welcome offer and earn rate shown on a pick is the figure our catalogue holds for that card, the same one its card page shows. Nothing here is pay-to-rank.

Why do some cards show no annual fee figure?

Because we hold no confirmed figure for it. Our fee column used to default to zero, and many cards still carry a zero that no check has confirmed — so a zero on its own cannot be told apart from a field nobody filled in, and printing “C$0” there would invent a price. A card shows a fee where a positive one is on record, or where a zero was confirmed against the issuer's terms; otherwise the slot reads “Not confirmed”, and the issuer's own page is the place to check before you apply.

How are these cards ranked?

In the research's order. The figures on each pick come from our catalogue, and each card's review page marks which of them a published document states.
