Ownright

Toronto-based Ownright has launched Canada’s first fully digital Status Certificate Review, modernizing a critical step in condominium transactions. The new platform replaces legal jargon with plain-language summaries across six categories, including property information, financial health, and legal status.

Available through a secure client portal, the tool offers transparency for buyers, realtors, and legal teams alike. CEO Robert Saunders said the innovation “opens the black box” of status certificates. With condos comprising over half of homes in cities like Toronto and Vancouver, Ownright’s platform streamlines an often opaque legal process in real estate.

Ontario-based digital real estate law firm Doormat has rebranded as Ownright, reflecting its commitment to automation and client-focused services. The company also secured a $4.5M seed round, led by Alate and Relay Ventures, bringing total funding to $6.5M. Ownright streamlines property closings, mortgage refinancing, and status certificate reviews, eliminating tedious email chains.

Since launching in 2023, the company has processed $750M in transactions and is projected to surpass $1B by 2025. CEO Robert Saunders says the rebrand aligns with the company’s mission to make real estate law efficient and transparent through technology-driven legal solutions.
