What Device & Laptop Setup means for you

Setup is where bad habits begin. Skipping encryption or saving passwords in a browser seems harmless until a laptop is left in a car. Doing it properly once takes a couple of hours and removes whole categories of future headaches.

Plays well with your stack

Whatever you use today, there is a good chance we can build on it. Typical platforms for device & laptop setup include MacBook, Windows 11, iPhone, Android, BitLocker, FileVault and Apple Business-class tools. We map how data flows between them, remove duplicate steps and test each connection. If something cannot be connected cleanly, we tell you straight away and suggest the simplest workaround.

Who Device & Laptop Setup is for

Device & Laptop Setup suits solo realtors, growing teams and small brokerages that want professional tech without hiring someone full time. It is especially useful for real estate teams, relocation specialists and commercial brokers, where busy schedules and sensitive client information make a clean setup valuable. If you already have a tech-minded assistant, we work alongside them and fill the gaps.

What to expect after you say yes

Within two business days you get a kickoff checklist and a booking link. Most device & laptop setup projects reach a working first version within one to two weeks, depending on how quickly accounts are shared. We schedule changes outside your busy windows, send a short update after each session and keep the project notes in a shared document you can read at any time.

What device & laptop setup costs

One-time setups start from $750 and ongoing per-agent plans start from $89 per month, with team pricing for larger groups. For device & laptop setup, the final figure depends on how many agents, devices and tools are involved. You receive a written fixed-scope quote after a free 30-minute consultation. Prices are in Canadian dollars, plus 5% GST, with a 10% launch discount and no lock-in. See the full pricing page for plan details.

How Device & Laptop Setup works with us

Every device & laptop setup project begins with a free 30-minute consultation. We ask what you sell, how leads reach you, which tools you already pay for and what keeps you up at night. A short audit follows, then a fixed-scope plan with a price and timeline. Work happens in focused sessions around your showings, and you see each change before it goes live. We finish with a handover, a written summary and a follow-up check a week later. Target: a ready-to-work device in one session, with encryption and backup confirmed before we leave.

Security and privacy built in

Real-estate files include IDs, financial details and contracts. We configure device & laptop setup so access is limited to the people who need it, sign-in uses multi-factor authentication and data stays in business-grade accounts. We design with Canadian privacy rules such as PIPEDA and BC PIPA in mind, and we record where information lives so you can answer questions from clients or your brokerage.

How we measure success

Good tech has measurable results. For device & laptop setup we agree a few simple measures at the start, such as response time, completed automations, backup test results or the number of accounts protected. Target: a ready-to-work device in one session, with encryption and backup confirmed before we leave. We review those numbers with you during your quarterly check-in and adjust if your goals change.

Quick answers

Do you resell software?

No. We are a consulting and support team, so recommendations follow your needs. You buy and own your own subscriptions and domains, and we manage them for you if you wish.

How long does device & laptop setup take to set up?

Most agents are working with a first version within one to two weeks. Larger teams or more complex stacks can take longer, and we agree the timeline up front.

What does device & laptop setup include?

We take your new or existing laptop and phone from the box to business-ready: updates applied, disk encryption on, apps installed, accounts signed in safely and a backup running before you ever need it. The exact scope is written down in a fixed-price plan after a free 30-minute consultation, so you know what is included and what is not.

Do I have to switch tools?

Usually not. We build on what you already use where it makes sense, and recommend changes only when they save money, reduce risk or remove manual work.

How much does device & laptop setup cost?

One-time setups start from $750 and per-agent monthly plans start from $89, plus 5% GST. A 10% launch discount applies for new clients. Teams are quoted by headcount, and there is no lock-in.
