Already 177 owners on the waitlist.
The industry
Canada is one of the world's largest audiovisual production hubs.
Every week, hundreds of productions shoot in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, and across the country. International feature films. Series broadcast on Netflix, Crave, and HBO. Advertising campaigns for global brands. Music videos, branded content, documentary productions.
What sets them apart is not the studio. It is the location.
Productions are not looking for fabricated sets. They are looking for authentic homes, spaces with character, properties that tell a story. Your kitchen. Your living room. Your backyard. Your rooftop.
No pan-Canadian platform has been built to connect productions with location owners. Locloc fills that gap.
The revenue potential
From $500 to $5,000 per shoot day.
More for exceptional properties.

For reference, four shoot days in a typical Canadian residence generate revenue equivalent to roughly six months of average residential rent in Canada.
For a property that sits empty most of the time, the arithmetic speaks for itself.
Who it is for
Your property is likely more relevant than you think.
Productions look for the authentic before the perfect. An ordinary suburban kitchen can be worth as much as an architectural loft. A finished basement, a period staircase, an open view, a mature garden: each of these represents active demand.
Primary and secondary residences
Houses, condos, lofts, vacation properties. Architecture, design, views, garden, pool, terrace.
Commercial and professional spaces
Restaurants, bars, hotels, offices, clinics, studios, event halls, coworking spaces.
Industrial and raw spaces
Warehouses, garages, workshops, disused factories, lots, open spaces.
Exceptional venues
Heritage properties, listed buildings, rooftops, unusual locations, rural properties, barns, chapels, boats.
If your property has a distinctive visual signature, character, or a particular location, a production is searching for it right now.

FAQ
The essential questions.
What types of shoots take place at hosts’ properties?
Every type of production may request your property: feature films, television series, commercials, music videos, branded content, editorial photo shoots. Most residential shoots last between one and five days. Crews can range from a handful of people for an independent project to several dozen for a television production. Each request specifies the nature of the project, its duration, and the size of the crew, so you are free to choose the shoots that suit you.
What is Locloc’s commission?
Our commission is competitive and fully transparent. The complete fee schedule will be published at the time of official launch.
Am I required to accept every request?
Not at all. You are free to decline any project, date, or crew that does not meet your criteria, without having to justify your decision.
Is renting my home for a shoot legal?
The legal framework for filming differs from that of short-term Airbnb-style rentals. A shoot is a distinct, one-off commercial activity. Our team guides you in complying with the regulations applicable to your borough.
My property is ordinary. Is it of any real interest?
Yes. Productions have a constant need for authentic, ordinary spaces: suburban homes, modest apartments, functional offices, basements, garages, backyards. Character and availability often matter more than prestige.
Why a waitlist rather than direct registration?
We will launch Locloc with a critical mass of properties available from day one. Those on the waitlist receive onboarding priority, featured placement at launch, and a reduced commission on their first booking.
