Some people are happy living in the family home and are in no rush to move into their first apartment. Others can’t wait to leave the nest, counting down the days until they are out the door and in their own space. Regardless of which end of the spectrum you’re on, when you’re ready to spread your wings and become a renter, you should be prepared. Friends and family will happily tell you of their experiences and make suggestions on how to proceed. And you should listen closely. But for an added perspective, in this edition of Renters Guide, we’ve included two great articles filled with useful information to set you on the right path. Before you even start looking for an apartment, there are things you should consider – what kind of space you want and need, the neighbourhood you’d like to live in and how much of your income you should spend on rent so you can afford other aspects of your life. The story on page 28 will help you thread through the options. Once you’ve found some places to view, you’ll want to ask your potential new landlord a bunch of questions before you sign a lease. The renters’ checklist on page 26 is pretty comprehensive and a good place to start. So enjoy renting, and when it’s time to make a move, let Renters Guide help. If there is something you’d like us to write about, or if you have a comment or suggestion, please send me an email.

The Quay You know this is where you Really wanT To live! It’s been a magnificently hot, sunny summer so far, and it’s not over yet. There’s still lots of time to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. So why not bring yourself closer to all the outdoors has to offer by living in a beautiful waterfront suite? Professionally managed by Briarlane, The Quay enjoys a prime lakefront location. The beautiful views are rivalled only by the amazing opportunity to head out and enjoy all that waterfront living offers. The waterfront is possibly the most coveted part of this area. It’s a small strip that offers lifestyle, luxury and the cachet of living on the water. It’s living in a big city, but being able to get out on the lake in your free time. It’s beautiful sunrises and romantic sunsets. It’s tranquil strolls on the boardwalk, and lively outings. The area has everything, from summer concerts and festivals and winter iceskating to culture at Harbourfront Centre, nightlife, dining and 8 RentersGuide.ca
shopping. Walk to the ACC or Rogers Centre for a game or a show. Enjoy transit and highway access, both virtually steps from home. Enjoy all that the city has to offer – and do it while taking in the most picturesque backdrop of Lake Ontario. Fulfilling dreams of waterfront living wouldn’t be complete without a magnificent suite to call home. Briarlane provides an exceptional experience, offering renovated and updated suites that exude style and complement the urban lifestyle. Ash brown stripplank floors are paired with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, including dishwasher and over-the-range microwave. The breakfast bar creates a perfect dining nook and transitions to the spacious living area. From Juliette balconies to spacious closets, you’ll be surrounded in chic style and comfort. The building has also been updated and renovated, with
beautiful amenities to offer a leisurely lakefront lifestyle. The new lobby features a concierge, while the community includes a fully equipped, state-of-theart fitness centre plus a separate stretching/yoga/Pilates room; a luxurious lounge with comfortable seating and TV; a party room with catering kitchen and great seating – both club style and formal; a games room; a business centre; and a theatre with three rows of indulgent theatre seating and full wall-size projection screening. Wifi is available in these amenities. Onsite retail includes a convenience store, Beer Store, Loch & Quay Pub, Y Yoga, a nail salon, veterinary clinic, and more! This is one present to yourself that can’t be ordered online. You need to pamper yourself in an incredible new suite by getting in touch.

ADVICE | QUICK TIPS
GET INTO YOUR
ORGANIZING GROOVE HELLEN BUTTIGIEG
With the kids heading back to school soon, now is a good time to de-clutter and get your home organized. WHAT’S IN YOUR FREEZER?
An organized freezer allows you to find and use what you have, prevents waste and saves you money. Freeze sauces, meats and berries in zipper freezer bags and use permanent marker to write the contents and date directly on the bags. Use sturdy, flat-bottomed freezer baskets to store the floppy freezer bags. Organize by category (frozen vegetables in one basket, sauces in another). Place new foods at the back of the freezer and use the oldest food first. STORE YOUR SEASONAL CLOTHING
Before storing them, ensure that they have been cleaned. Even if items appear clean after wearing, body oils can cause stains that set over a few months and may attract moths. Never store clothing in plastic bags for extended periods (even those that come from the dry-cleaners); they trap moisture and encourage mildew. Use cotton garment bags instead. Avoid storing clothes in cardboard boxes as acids in the cardboard can cause fabrics to yellow and the glue between 10 RentersGuide.ca
the layers can attract insects. Use lidded plastic storage containers instead. Tuck some cedar blocks or shavings inside (it’s less toxic than moth balls). Always store the clothes in a cool, dry, dark and well-ventilated area. MAXIMIZE BATHROOM STORAGE SPACE
Place items you use daily within easy reach, like on the countertop, in the top drawer or in a hanging
organizer in the shower area. Store items used once or twice a week in the next most-accessible place, like the middle drawer or under the sink. Stash items used only once or twice a month in the back of the cupboard or in labelled boxes. For shared bathrooms, avoid turf wars by giving each person their own shower tote, which can be stored in the person’s bedroom when not in use.
HOW DO YOU FILE YOUR PAPERWORK?
Some experts suggest placing new paper behind previous ones (filing to the back) because it’s faster and easier to drop papers in the file that way. On the other hand, when you are looking for papers inside your files, you are more likely to need the most current ones, so you could access them faster if you filed them at the front. This just goes to show that organizing is not one size fits all; you need to find the systems that work best for you.

ADVICE | MOVING
GET A MOVE ON: SURVIVING
RELOCATION 8 WEEKS TO GO
CHUCK RESNICK
Nobody pretends that moving is a walk in the park – but it needn’t be an out-and-out nightmare either. As moving day approaches, don’t wait to be overwhelmed with a flood of jobs that should have been tended to weeks before. Here you’ll find a step-by-step guide to easing some of the panic associated with the big day:
• Get estimates from several different moving companies and book a mover. If you decide to contract the mover to take care of your packing, arrange to have this done one or two days before the moving date. • If you’re doing the job yourself, book a truck. Self-movers should consult the truck rental company as to the truck size required to accommodate your belongings. • If you’re moving to a new town, make a phone call to the local Chamber of Commerce for information about schools, amenities, taxes, etc. • Take a good look at the floorplan of your new home and visualize your furniture arrangement. Decide which furniture you want to hang on
to, and which, if any, should be set free. • Properly dispose of anything you will be unable to move – ie, food in the freezer, flammable painting and cleaning supplies. If you’re moving from a condo, re-familiarize yourself with the contents of your locker. 5 WEEKS TO GO
• Talk to your mover about costs, insurance, loading delivery and claims procedures. Ask your accountant about taxdeductible moving expenses, and be sure to retain any pertinent records. • Obtain copies of your family’s records from doctors, dentists, lawyers, accountants, etc. • Transfer your children’s school records. • Fill out a change-of-address form at the post office. Inform creditors, magazine subscriptions, etc., of your new address. 4 WEEKS TO GO
• Arrange storage if needed. • If your furniture, curtains or
20 RentersGuide.ca
carpets need fixing, now is the time to have the work done. • If you don’t want it, unload it at a garage sale: less to move, cash to gain. 3 WEEKS TO GO
• Estimate how many boxes you’ll need and collect them from neighbourhood stores. • Also collect the following: • newspapers • bubble wrap • scissors • utility knife • packing tape and string • labels and markers • furniture pads • dolly Moving day may seem eons away, but it’s time to start packing those things you won’t use before the move. Arrange for cancellation of utilities, television programming, phone, Internet, etc., and arrange for their set-up at your new home. If you’re taking a lengthy journey, make travel and hotel reservations. Have your address changed on your driver’s license, registration and insurance, and your health card. In major city centres, much of this can be easily done at automated kiosks found in designated shopping malls. 2 WEEKS TO GO
• Arrange for the transfer of your bank accounts to your new branch. • Cancel or re-direct any direct deposit or automatic payment arrangements. • Talk to your veterinarian about the best way to move your pet. • Cancel delivery services and newspaper subscriptions. 1 WEEK TO GO
• Have medical prescriptions transferred to a pharmacy in your new neighbourhood. • If necessary, book a babysitter for moving day.
• Return library books, videos and items long ago borrowed from neighbours.
•
2 DAYS TO GO
•
If you’ve hired movers to pack for you, they should be doing so now. Set aside a suitcase with the clothing and toiletries you’ll need along the way, or upon arrival in your new home. Pack a survival kit for your first day, including: • scissors and utility knife • coffee cups, paper plates • paper towels • tea kettle, instant coffee, tea and water/soft drinks • pens and paper • garbage bags • soap and towel • Valuables and important papers should be carefully secured. Bring these with you instead of packing them in the truck. • Defrost your refrigerator and freezer. • Be prepared to pay the movers on delivery day. MOVING DAY - PICK UP THE TRUCK EARLY, IF YOU’RE MOVING YOURSELF.
• Make a list of every item loaded onto the truck. • Provide the mover with a phone number through which you can be reached. • Be available by phone to answer
• • •
questions and direct the mover as needed. Read the bill of lading before signing. Put aside in a safe place until the transaction is seen through to the very end, including any settling of claims. Ensure water and appliances are turned off in your old house. Do a final inspection of your old basement, attic and garage. Lock all doors and windows.
UPON ARRIVAL
• As the truck is unloaded, check off each item on your list. Examine furniture for damage and settle your bill. • If you have children underfoot, open a box containing their toys and books. • Ensure utilities are in working order. • Sit back with the comforting beverage of your choice, ignore the disarray and feel proud.

ADVICE
DO YOU HAVE A
Congratulations. You’ve found an apartment. Typically, you may have some questions for the owner. Here is a list from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. (CMHC) to get you started. 1. Are utilities such as heat, electricity, water, cable television or Internet included in the monthly rental fee? Do you have to pay for some or all of them separately, or are the costs shared with other tenants? If the costs are shared, not everyone has the same usage or requirements, so make sure you understand how the usage is divided up. 2. What type of heating is used – natural gas, oil or electric? Some energy sources cost more than others. 3. On average, how much did the previous tenants pay for utilities each month? Use this as a guideline since they could have had different energy needs than your own. 4. Is there parking? How much does it cost? What about additional vehicles, including guest parking? 5. Is there extra storage? Is it included in the rental cost? 6. Is laundry extra? If so, how much does it cost? 7. Is there rent control in place? If not, how will future rent increases be handled? 8. Who handles installing or moving telephone jacks, satellite dishes, or television cables? 9. Is there high-speed Internet available? 10. Can changes be made to the unit, including painting and hanging pictures on the walls? 26 RentersGuide.ca
11. Why are the current tenants
leaving? If pets are allowed, what kind? Does the property need to be professionally cleaned at the end of the lease? 12. Is smoking permitted? 13. What security systems are in place? Have the locks been changed recently? Are there parts of the building that require key access? SAFETY AND HEALTHY LIVING
Safety, security and healthy living are also important considerations when looking for a place to live. Before deciding to rent, make sure to: • Consider the nearest transit stop and parking areas if you have a vehicle. Are they isolated, or are there enough people around to walk to and from safely? • Look for added security beyond what you would expect for the area as this could signal a higher crime rate.
• Check the locks on the windows and doors, and ask the landlord to change them at their expense before you move in. (They are, however, not legally obligated to do so.) • Examine sliding glass doors, like patio doors, for a reinforcement rod in the track that prevents them from being forced open. • Check for working smoke detectors, fire exits and/or fire escapes, and fire extinguishers. For basement units, make sure the windows are large enough to crawl through. • Look for properly vented space heaters and fireplaces with plenty of room around each for furniture to be placed safely. • Look for the presence of mould (stains on the walls, musty smells, or rotting wood) to make sure the air you are breathing is clean.

ADVICE
FIRST-TIME RENTER? HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW You’ve just starting to look for your first apartment. That’s so exciting. But as a newbie, you may not know how to begin the search or even what to look for. The first thing to realize is that although there is no such thing as a perfect rental, there is a close-to-perfect one out there for you. The reality is, you will have to compromise on a few of your wants, but finding a place to rent becomes a lot easier when you know what you will and won’t settle for, including how much you want to spend. As a general rule, housing costs should be less than 30 per cent of your before-tax income. This includes: Utilities (electricity, heat and water), rent and municipal services (if applicable). DIFFERENT KINDS OF RENTALS
Apartment Apartments vary from walk-up units in lowrise buildings to units located in buildings with elevator access. Amenities can vary from a single on-site washer and dryer, to full laundry rooms, in-suite laundry facilities, common rooms and fitness facilities. Some of the advantages of apartment living include secured access and no maintenance of external grounds. House House rentals include townhouses, duplexes, semi-detached and single-detached houses. A basement apartment in a house is often considered an apartment. House rentals provide more space than most apartments and sometimes have access to some outside spaces such as a patio, lawn, garden and parking. Rooming House Rooming houses are shared 28 RentersGuide.ca
accommodations with both shortterm (week-to-week) and longerterm rental options. Many rooms have their own refrigerator for a tenant’s personal use. FACTORS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A RENTAL
Affordability: Perhaps the most important factor is your personal budget: How much you can afford to pay for rent each month and still have money left over for your other bills – tenants’ insurance, cable, telephone service, Internet connection, parking, credit card, etc. – not to mention food, transportation, entertainment and clothing costs. Location: Think about the neighbourhood in which you’d like to live. Do you want to live near work? Or do you prefer to be close to school, family and friends? Parking and public transportation: If you have a car, is there parking nearby? Will you need a permit to park in the area? If you don’t have a car, how easy is it to go grocery shopping or to
get to appointments? Are you near public transit? Surroundings: Do you prefer a quiet neighbourhood in the suburbs, or do you thrive being at the centre of activity, with access to bars and clubs? If you like to cook, you may want to live near a lot of grocery stores, and if you don’t, an area rich in restaurants and takeout joints might be more appealing. Availability: Some rental properties are harder to find during certain months of the year. Try to move during prime season so you have more variety from which to choose. Safety: Are there a lot of break-ins or crime in the area that you need to consider? NEW TO CANADA?

ADVICE | MONEY MATTERS
GET OUT OF
ODIOUS OVERDRAFT GAIL VAZ-OXLADE
The families I work with are often in overdraft at some point in their month. Some of them spend virtually the whole month in overdraft. And some have no overdraft protection (or the wrong plan) so they end up paying exorbitant fees. You’ve no doubt seen me give people the What For because they’ve been racking up $300/month bank fees. What a waste of money! BEING IN OVERDRAFT IS A STRONG INDICATION THAT YOU’RE NOT:
a) living within your means, and b) keeping track your expenses.
If you want to get out of overdraft and back into the black, it will likely take some belt-tightening for a few months. Here’s how to do it. Make a list of your monthly Fixed Essential Expenses… The bills that you have to cover every month like your mortgage and car payment, your minimums on your debt and your childcare expenses. Total it up. Make a list of your monthly Variable Essential Expenses…The costs that you simply can’t avoid, like food and gas. Be careful now, we’re not talking fancy food and lotsnlotsa gas… we’re talking the bare minimums to get you through the month. There’s no clothing, no movies, no shopping at all on this list. Total it up. 32 RentersGuide.ca
Subtract these two totals from your income. How much do you have left? If you don’t have enough to cover the unessential expenses in your life – the fancy cell phone, the uppity satellite service and the like, you can see your problem. Time to cut back on the nice-tohaves until you’re out of the hole. Change your services to the most basic you can get away with. Commit to living on this very harsh, very tight budget for a month. Just one month. Take all the rest of the money you make and stick it in an envelope, a jar, or a high interest savings account… as long as you don’t spend it. Clearly you’re not allowed to use your credit during this process. You’re, in essence, having a No Shop Month. When you get to the end of the month, add up how much you’ve got left after all your bills have been paid. Is it enough to cover your overdraft? If it is, then you’ll have to live through this belttightening horror for one more month to build up the buffer you need to never go into overdraft again. If it’s not, you may have to feel the pain for a couple more months until you’re in the clear. From here forward, you want that buffer stored in an account that’s linked to your primary transaction account so that if you see your account running a little low, you can transfer some money from your buffer account to keep you afloat. You are also going to become meticulous at tracking your spending. (gailvazoxlade.com/ blog/archives/719) After all, you don’t want to have to go through this pain again, right?
Some people create a buffer in their transaction account to prevent overdrafts, keeping, let’s say $100 in the chequing account that they never allow themselves to spend. If their balance ever falls below that $100, they simply stop spending. While they’re not overdrawn as far as the bank is concerned – so there are no fees – they’re overdrawn in their own eyes and go without until the next paycheque hits the bank. Getting out from under the Odious Overdraft is not an easy task. But you can do it if you’re determined to stop paying the bank for your lack of self-control. Yes, it’ll hurt for a month or four. But the relief of being back in the black is fabulous. Let me know how it goes. Gail Vaz-Oxlade is the host of Til Debt Do Us Part and author of Debt Free Forever. gailvazoxlade.com.
