re you too busy to manage a home? Perhaps you’ve done the homeownership thing, and want to unshackle yourself from the costs of upkeep and home maintenance?

Most everyone these days is looking at ways to de-stress and simplify their lives, and renting rather than owning one can be one of the easiest ways to get relief. When you really think about it, it’s an option that may take some getting used to!

Needless to say, when you’re renting a home, your “to-do” list will likely look very different than those from your homeownership days. It could things like frequent trips, and longer vacations; more time to enjoy friends and family and plentiful periods of “me” time with those books and movies you’ve always wanted to check out.

Whether you’re a life-long renter or a homeowner in need of a change, this issue of Renters Guide is for you. We’ve profiled some of the top buildings and suites in the Greater Toronto Area, and we’ve got some great advice on renting and decorating in the issue too. Your new “to-do” list is waiting. Time to set yourself free.

t

he car. More and more, people are deciding that they don’t need it.

Rental living really can make car ownership an unnecessary expense.

No, it’s not that some buildings come with a car included – well not exactly. In many cities in Canada there are one, two and even three carshare programs available. With cars at-the-ready in high usage areas, they’re a perfect option for those occasional drivers. Some property management companies are even starting to offer ride-share on site.

While that may work for non-commuters, those that need to travel a distance beyond a reasonable walk or bike ride start to be hard-pressed to part with their cars. Why not move closer to work or rent on a convenient transit line? Apartments are readily found on the major routes. Whether it’s a train, tram, subway, LRT or bus in your community, moving to a transit pass can save on gas, parking, insurance and car payments – and if you add just a portion of those saving to your rental budget you could be living better and wasting less time in traffic. That time you save is priceless.

Have you ever considered carpooling? If you’re living in an apartment building, chances are you’ll be able to find someone to commute with.

Sharing the expense and enjoying some company can brighten a commute even in the worst weather.

If you want to make the move, we’re here to help. You may even find underground parking in your next move! Our magazine and website, TheRentersGuide.ca, offer the best selection of available apartments, informative articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

BRIDES & GROOMS

combining households for the first time

by Dan Hopkins

F

irst-time brides and grooms are older than ever before, according to recent census figures. The median age for men marrying for the fi rst time is now 28 and it’s 26 for women – that’s 30 per cent older than in 1960.

Because today’s fi rst marriages are occurring later in life – not to mention second or third marriages – more often the modern dilemma is whose couch stays and tallying how many flat-screen TVs the couple has between them.

When couples married 40 years ago, they were barely into their 20s and often still living at home. The traditional wedding shower carried great value as it supplied newlyweds with all the necessities married life required, including dishes, cookware and bedding.

» Think about donating to those in need. If a garage sale isn’t of interest, consider donating to local charities, homeless shelters or schools.

Experts agree that couples can successfully blend two households if they take time on the front end to address the move. The key, as with all organizing projects, is proper planning.

For the “new couple” combining households for the fi rst time, proper planning is key to starting off on the right foot in the early years of marriage.

Here are some helpful tips for combining households for fi rst-time marriages: » Go through each existing home together, and identify which items are duplicates. Talk about each item honestly. If you can legitimately use two of something in your new life, such as televisions or stereos, go ahead and keep both, but don’t wait to have the discussion on moving day. » Do the same evaluation for small items, such as silverware, as you do for the larger items. These smaller items can add up quickly, and often produce TheRentersGuide.ca the most clutter. » Organize with boxes and coloured markers, available from companies like Two Men And A Truck. Purchase a variety of box sizes before you begin so you can appropriately tag and box both items that stay and those that go TheRentersGuide.ca along the way.

Ways and Means of Coping with an

EMERGENCY B Y GAI L VAZ -OX LADE

E

xperts have been touting the importance of having an emergency fund since Moses was a lad. So why is it that so many people still don’t have TheRentersGuide.ca enough (or any?) money set aside just in case? Reasons and rationales abound.

TheRentersGuide.ca

“I’m paying off my debt. That’s the most important thing.” With the amount of debt people are buried in, it’s no wonder people want to get rid of it as fast as they can. But having a single focus is never a good way to create balance. Money in the bank gives you options – ways to deal – so that you can stay on track with debt repayment even when the business hits the fan. Having no cash at the ready means you’ll no doubt be forced to use your credit to deal with a broken furnace, unexpected medical bills, or replacing that tire you blew on the highway.

Accessible cash means you can keep to your debt-repayment plan and deal with whatever crisis – large or small – that has come knocking on your door.

“I can’t see the point of letting money sit earning next to nothing.” While it can be a really sad thing to watch thousands of dollars languishing in a savings account, return isn’t the priority with an emergency fund. Access is. Stick that money into the market and it may not be there just when you need it most. Stick it in a high-interest savings account and while you may be irked by the pittance you’re earning in interest, the emergency fund will be at the ready when you hit the wall. The point is to have some wiggle room when the unexpected happens.

TheRentersGuide.ca “I have $1,000. That’s enough.” $1,000 may be enough of an emergency fund if you live under a rock. Yes, you’ll need

TheRentersGuide.ca

finances

less of a buffer if you're living rent-free, you have no debt, you walk everywhere you go, and you’re happy eating ketchup soup three nights a week. If you want a realistic emergency fund – one that actually gets you though the rough – figure our your monthly essential expenses and multiply by six. That’s how much you need.

Unemployment insurance may help fill the gap if you lose your job, but it doesn’t go far. And unemployment isn’t the worst emergency you may face. Get sick and watch your money evaporate. Even if you have good health and disability insurance plans, your cash flow will still take a kicking until your benefits click on.

“Who needs an emergency fund when you can use a line of credit?”The people telling us an LOC is an emergency fund are the same people who let us buy houses without enough money down, offered us ways to satisfy all your whims while spending money we hadn’t yet earned, and continually raised our limits until many of us had enough debt to bury an elephant.

A line of credit is not an emergency fund, it is debt waiting to happen. If you hit a wall and end up racking up tens of thousands in debt on an LOC, how was that diverting disaster?

Perhaps the problem with the whole emergency fund thing is that people don’t like to think they’ll have to deal TheRentersGuide.ca with emergencies. It’s not unlike the folks who won’t make a will because they don’t want to contemplate their

TheRentersGuide.ca

demise, or who won’t buy disability insurance because they can’t imagine becoming disabled.

Maybe we’re just calling it by the wrong name. The whole idea of having to deal with emergencies can be a real downer.

Maybe what we need is nomenclature that sounds far more proactive and positive. We’ll stop predicting disaster and instead focus on the fact that when you have money at the ready, you also have ways and means to deal with whatever life pitches at you.

Hmmm… a Ways-and-Means Fund… cash in the bank that gives us the means so we can figure out ways of dealing with life’s lumps. Your son breaks his arm playing in the park, and you have the means – the money – you need to take a day off work, get him to the hospital, and cope in whatever other ways you must.

Your partner is downsized and you have the means to pay the bills and keep food on the table until he finds new ways of bringing home the bacon. You bang up your car or find yourself in the throes of a divorce, and you have the means to keep the financial boat afloat while you find ways to cope with all the other stress in your life.

Convinced that having The Means offers you more Ways of smoothing out life’s bumps? Now it’s just a matter of coming up with the dough. It takes effort to knead intent into action.

To best way to create your Ways-andMeans Fund is to set up an automatic deduction from your regular account

to a high-interest savings account. If you don’t have much to save, it doesn’t matter — the important thing is just to start, to convert your intent into action.

As long as you haven’t started, you’re not creating the means for dealing with what life will inevitably throw at you.

Commit $25 per pay to your Ways-andMeans Fund. Once you’ve begun, you’re on your way and then it only becomes a matter of how to boost the amount you’re setting aside to grow your stash of cash.

Most people have expenses they can trim to boost the money going to their Ways-and-Means Fund. Do you buy coffee every day on the way to work?

Calculate how much you’re spending, cut it in half, and send the difference to your Ways-and-Means Fund. Smoke?

If you smoked half as much, how much would you be able to sock away? Pick up the latest magazine at the checkout counter? Subscribe to premium cable?

Go out for a drink with your friends after work? Buy your lunch at work? Pick up your favorite stuff whenever it’s on sale even though you already have 30 pairs of shoes, white shirts, handbags, DVDs, (name your vice here). How quickly could you build your Ways-and-Means Fund by focusing on being safe as opposed to being satiated?

If you’re determined to keep all your small indulgences, try the Tit-for-Tat approach to building your Ways-andMeans Fund. Each time you satisfy a want, contribute an equal amount to your Ways-and-Means Fund. Not only will it make you really think about whether you’re going to spend the money – in essence whatever you buy is going to cost your cash flow twice as much – you’ll be giving yourself options for the future while you enjoy yourself today.
