enting an apartment over owning a home makes lots of financial sense for people in many different life situations. Maybe you just can’t afford to buy a home or don’t want to spend your hard-earned money on one. Maybe you have a plan to buy a home in a few years, and want to start saving for a down payment. Or maybe you’re simply not interested in the cost and commitment that comes with being a homeowner. No matter why you’re renting an apartment, you need to know your rights as a tenant. As part of the renting process, your landlord must give you a copy of the agreement after you sign and return it. Since this document outlines all the terms you’ve agreed to, it’s an important document to have on hand. You should avoid breaking a lease if at all possible. Each lease agreement has its own penalties for not honouring the outlined terms. Be sure to check your lease to make sure you can handle the financial ramifications that come with breaking a lease — before you break it.

hen the year winds to a close I always feel it’s a perfect time to take account of all that I have in my life. I’m not one to make New Year’s resolutions, but I like to see what’s working for me and what may need some change. It’s a great time to look around and see if your home is the place you want - and need - it to be. Whether you’ve been a longterm tenant or you’ve just finished the term on your lease, life happens, needs change. If your home still offers that magic combination of the perfect location, an ideal size and the right set of amenities, then there is no reason to move. But if you’re not feeling the magic, maybe it’s time for a change. You may have switched jobs and want to be closer to work so you can cut down the commute. You may have found that special someone. Instead of trying to merge into your or their space, it might be more ideal to start fresh in a new place together. Your family may have grown – or the kids may have left the nest. There’s no reason to be paying for space that you don’t use, or that doesn’t work for you. There are a lot of factors that go into finding that perfect combo of location, size and amenities – and budget is a big factor. Know your price range. Empty nesters who chose to downsize can pocket the difference. A move closer to work may save you significant expense because you can walk to work instead of paying for gas and parking. Though be prepared – sometimes for that central location you’ll be paying a premium rent. Cutting out the commute may cost you more, but the free time being added to your life will be priceless. It’s a great time of year to find that new apartment and we’re here to help. With Renters Guide in hand you’ll find the perfect place. Our magazine and website, homeTRADER.ca, offer the best selection of available apartments as well as informative articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

I=: <:DG<>6C New management – unbelievable difference!

riarlane took over management of The Georgian at 390 Dawes Rd. on January 1st. They had their work cut out for them. With residents as their ﬁrst priority, they created a to-do list – a lengthy one – to improve the building and its lifestyle in every way.

Briarlane envisioned a modern and desirable place to call home – a clean, stylish community with updated suites and contemporary common areas. But just as important as the visual, they wanted the mechanics and the function of the building to improve to meet their high standards of practice. Briarlane inspected the building to establish the list of improvements, from aesthetic upgrades to infrastructure improvements that add to the building’s function, and ultimately, residents’ comfort. Refusing to cut corners, the transformation is well underway. The ﬁrst three months began with intensive cleaning to all the common areas and building systems – including full pest management, air vents, fans and boiler cleaning, repairs to the heating system, implementing a cleaner and more streamlined garbage management system, new signage and a deep cleaning and overhaul of the building and grounds. But for Briarlane, that was just the start, they had much more scheduled. Since April, most issues and areas of the building have been addressed, with fantastic results. Landscaping the grounds has beautiﬁed the community, while the common areas received a decorator’s touch with a fresh coat of paint, chair rail in the corridors and

ceramic tile for elevator landings. Security measures have been increased through additional cameras and upgrading to keyfob access. The locker room was cleaned out and repainted so that additional storage is now available for rent. The laundry room was extensively renovated, including the installation of new machines with a modern Smart Card payment system. The garage was addressed with a thorough power washing and a fresh coat of paint and improvements were made in the lighting – and the list goes on. While current tenants are pleased, new residents will be impressed by the renovated suites. Briarlane has invested $7,000 to $10,000 in each suite, creating stylish and comfortable, modern suites. These boast new bathrooms and kitchens, with new appliance packages – the perfect complements to the generously sized suites. When they bought it, Briarlane recognized that The Georgian was in need of serious attention to bring this building up to the quality and standards of living that residents deserve. Enjoying

a prime location in the St. Clair and Victoria Park area, it offers residents access to a huge range of amenities including schools, parks, shopping, businesses, dining options and more. There is a bus stop right out front, and access to the highway is close by. While the location offers great urban access, it’s also buffered from the hustle and bustle, providing greenspace and a quieter pace. With the extensive renovations that have been completed and the elevator modernization currently underway, plus more still to come, like additional property fencing and ground ﬂoor patio privacy fencing, more landscaping, additional upgrades to the building’s lighting, new suite door hardware, and a new heating systeem for the underground garage ramp, The Georgian has become a star in this community. To take advantage of this incredible opportunity to live in one of the newly renovated suites, call the management ofﬁce at 416-767-0185. You can also visit www.briarlane.ca for more information on this – and all other Briarlane-managed communities across the GTA.

In the heart of it all BY JANE HERMAN

very city has a point from which everything emanates. In Toronto it’s Yonge and Bloor. Here’s where the

two main subway lines intersect. As well, addresses on all the major east-west streets (i.e. Bloor, St. Clair, Eglinton) are designated as “east” or “west” from Yonge St. outward.

14G

In the vertical city, the character of the neighbourhood can change significantly in just a few blocks. Such is the case at Yonge and Bloor. To the west the streetscape is dominated by luxury retailers, while to the east lies a mixed office and residential district. To the northwest lies Yorkville with its chic shops, luxury hotels and restaurants. Rosedale, one of the city’s most beautiful residential areas, with many historic homes, begins north and east of Yonge and Bloor. You can find some fabulous apartment buildings perched onto the Rosedale ravine, but vacancies are scarce.

L6CI ID A>K: >C I=: 6G:64

HAVING FUN The scenic Rosedale Valley Ravine is easily accessed via Aylmer St. or Park Rd. and provides a network of pathways for walking, jogging and cycling that continues all the way to the Don River. Ramsden Park lies just across from the Rosedale subway station and has a delightful children’s playground and wading pool, tennis courts and outdoor skating rink, as well as lots of beautifully landscaped greenspace. The iconic Metro Reference Library is one block north of Bloor on Yonge. Living at Yonge and Bloor you’re close to the Manulife Centre, where you can enjoy movies, restaurants and browsing at Indigo. This can be especially fun and convenient during the winter months.

SHOPPING Yonge and Bloor abounds with amazing shopping. The Hudson’s Bay Centre, anchored by The Bay, features an extensive retail concourse with many shops, eateries and services. Just to the west, Cumberland Terrace, another underground mall, connects to the Manulife and Holt Renfrew Centre. Bloor St. W. is a shopaholic’s paradise, featuring such upscale stores as Holt Renfrew, Harry Rosen, Nike, Tiffany and Company, Chanel, and Louis Vuitton. In the Manulife Centre you’ll ﬁnd William Ashley China and many other high-end retailers. Groceries can easily be found in this area, either at the Valu-Mart in the Manulife Centre, the Rabba on Davenport just east of Yonge, at Pusateri’s on Bay Street at Cumberland or at Whole Foods in Hazelton Lanes.

LIVING IN THE AREA The area from Yonge St. east to Church, along Bloor and south offers the most choice of rental accommodation, while the rentals lying west of Yonge are some of the city’s most prestigious addresses. If you like the idea of living in the heart of downtown this area offers good selection and value. There are a number of highrise and smaller highrise/midrise buildings. You can ﬁnd traditional suites, ideal for the urbanite and young professional. There are also some exceptionally large and luxurious suites available in various exclusive buildings. Prices are above average for Toronto, this is one of Toronto’s most upscale neighbourhoods.. Jane Herman is a communications consultant who has worked in the rental property industry. Her company, Jane Herman Communications (janeherman.ca) provides communications solutions for a diverse range of clients. Jane has written about food, fashion, apartment living and personal finance for several Toronto publications.

insideradvice

ARE YOU TRYING TO BE KINDER TO THE EARTH? Rent an apartment and you will be! By Sheryl Erenberg

t’s true. Apartment renters use 65 per cent less energy per household than people who live in houses! Renters have shorter commutes, take transit more and walk to their destination more, according to a recent report by the Federation of Rental Housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO) called “Apartment Living is Green”.

People who live in apartments: t 6TF QFS DFOU MFTT XBUFS QFS QFSTPO t 1SPEVDF QFS DFOU MFTT XBTUF t )BWF LN TIPSUFS DPNNVUFT “The typical apartment is surrounded on either side by another apartment and one above and below. This conﬁguration makes it less expensive to heat and cool ... compared to a detached house. Even townhomes and duplexes use less energy than a house,” according to the report. Not only do apartment residents generate less waste, but collecting the garbage from apartment buildings requires less trucks because hundreds are at one stop as opposed to driving to hundreds of houses spread over a wider region. This cuts down on trafﬁc congestion and lowers gas emissions. Only 50 per cent of apartment renters drive to work as opposed to 74 per cent of homeowners. Most apartment underground parking levels in the city have lots of empty spaces. Not owning a car in Toronto has never been easier with Autoshare, Zipcar and Car2Go available at so many apartment buildings. New apartment buildings in the GTA feature recycling “carousels” that allow residents to rotate

the chute according to what material is being discarded. Glass, cans, paper and other recyclables all fall into different bins at the base. Older buildings now designate different days for recycling and regular garbage, more and more community garden plots are popping up in apartment buildings that have the space. Some apartments are experimenting with outdoor composters to divert even more from landﬁll. Apartment renters have considerably lower carbon footprints and a higher quality of life, according to FRPO’s report. Because they walk to work, and they live closer to their place of business, renters spend less time commuting and have more time for leisure. Renters also add to their leisure time by choosing a lifestyle that does not include shovelling snow, raking leaves, cleaning eaves or any other house maintenance. It’s all done for you! So relax! Your environmental conscious can be clear if you’re renting. You are much Greener than those who live in a house.

Make future holidays merrier

by properly packing

SEASONAL DECORATIONS By Dan Hopkins

Holiday preparations such as tree trimming, present wrapping and hanging lights help get us in the holiday spirit and are lots of fun. But thoughtful packing of seasonal decorations and materials at the end of the holidays for the next year, can keep the fun in what is for some, a stressful time. In other words, it pays to plan, even 12 months ahead.

Lights t 5P QSFWFOU UBOHMFT XSBQ MJHIUT BSPVOE empty gift wrapping paper tubes. t -FBWF UIF QMVH BDDFTTJCMF CZ UBQJOH UIF ends of the light strands to the end of the tube. Next year you can quickly test the lights before unwinding them. t 4UPSF DPMPVSFE MJHIUT JO B EBSL QMBDF UP prevent fading â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially blues, greens and purples.

Here are some tips from Two Men and a Truck to keep in mind while packing away holiday decorations:

Wrapping paper t )BOHJOH HBSNFOU CBHT QSPWJEFT HPPE storage for wrapping paper rolls. Use outside pockets for gift tags, cards and tissue paper. t 5P QSPUFDU VTFE SPMMT PG QBQFS DVU BO FNQUZ wrapping paper tube from end to end and slide it over the roll. t 3JCCPOT BOE CPXT DBO CF TBWFE BOE reused, pack loosely so they keep their shape.

Delicate items t 8SBQ CSFBLBCMFT JO QBQFS PS CVCCMF XSBQ Do not use newspaper - the print may wear off on ornaments. Use tissue or

Some other considerations t 8SBQ IPMJEBZ DBOEMFT JOEJWJEVBMMZ JO cellophane and store in a cool place so they do not melt together.

Careful packing and organization prevents damage and breakage, and ensures you can find everything next year. It is worth taking the extra time to organize and preserve your decorations for next year.

packing paper. Instead of throwing away used paper or junk mail, run it through a paper shredder, it makes great packing filler. t %FDPSBUJPOT UIBU DPOUBJO QIPUPHSBQIT or food should be sealed in an air tight bag to keep them safe. Sealing photos preserves them and the scent from any food item will attract insects or mice wherever they are stored. t #PYFT XJUI EJWJEFST BSF CFTU UP QBDL ornaments in. There are cardboard boxes made especially for fragile items. They come with adjustable inserts that forms individual cells for delicate items. These â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dish Packâ&#x20AC;?boxes are very popular at all our Two Men and a Truck branches. t ,FFQ FYUSB IBOHFST IPPLT BOE PSOBNFOU parts in a labelled bag or box.

t 1BDL BO iPQFO GJSTUw CPY 1MBDF UIF decorations you use first in here with essentials such as extension cords. t 6TF B XBSESPCF CPY UP IBOH BOE TUPSF seasonal clothing that you only wear twice a year like that special snowman sweater from your mother-in-law or that flashing Christmas tie. This way you can find it, wear it, and store it away on a hanger easily. t *G ZPV IBWFO U VTFE B EFDPSBUJPO JO B GFX years donate it. If it is damaged, get rid of it. t 5BLF TQFDJBM DBSF JG ZPV BSF TUPSJOH ZPVS items in a damp area like a basement. %PO U TUPSF CPYFT OFBS TPVSDFT PG IFBU BOE moisture. t 5IF NPTU JNQPSUBOU UJQ JT UP MBCFM FWFSZ box. The more detailed the description, the easier it will be to find things. Use different colours to distinguish different holidays. For example, use orange for Halloween, brown for Thanksgiving, and red or green for Christmas. t 5BLF B EJHJUBM QIPUP PG TQFDJBM DBSF JUFNT like snow globes or wreaths, print them off on regular paper and tape the photo to the outside of the box as an easy EFTDSJQUJPO PG XIBU T JOTJEF All Two Men and a Truck branches in Canada offer a variety of storage boxes and packing supplies suitable to store all your decorative treasures.

LESLIE STYLES, FOODIE & TRAVEL AFICIONADO, SHARES SOME DELICIOUS DISHES FOUND ON HER TRAVELS AROUND THE WORLD.

GINGERBREAD APPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 10-inch cake pan. To make the topping, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan. Add the brown sugar and simmer over medium heat, stirring for five minutes, then swirl in the salt. Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the mixture into the cake pan, spreading with a spatula to distribute evenly. Make circles of overlapping apple slices on top of the brown sugar. Chop any remaining slices and place them in the gaps. For the batter, blend 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup sugar in a standing mixer set on medium-low, then increase the speed to high and cream until the batter becomes light and fluffy. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, molasses, honey, buttermilk and vanilla. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg. Alternate adding the egg mixture and the flour mixture to the creamed butter-sugar mixture, then pour the batter into the cake pan. Bake at least 45 to 50 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes. Run a small knife around the edges of pan to loosen the cake, then place a serving platter over the cake and invert onto the platter.

his delectably moist gingerbread-spiced caramelized apple upsidedown cake is the perfect dessert for the chilly autumn and winter months. Dark, coppery and intensely flavoured, this delicious cake is made with dark molasses, honey, buttermilk and a trio of fragrant spices, and goes perfectly with a dollop of pillowy soft Calvados Whipped Cream or tangy creme fraiche. As tempting as it may be, don’t use a springform pan with a removable bottom, as the syrup will leak out and that would be very messy as well as being enormously tragic. INGREDIENTS Serves 12 Topping: › 4 tbsp butter, plus extra for greasing pan › 1/2 cup dark brown sugar › Pinch of salt › 4 large Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored and cut into 1/4-inch wedges Batter: › 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature

› › › › › › › › › › ›

1/2 cup sugar 1 large egg 1/3 cup dark molasses 1/3 cup honey 1 cup buttermilk 1 tsp vanilla 2 1/4 cups flour 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp ground ginger 1 tsp cinnamon

› 1/2 tsp freshly ground nutmeg Calvados whipped cream: › 1/2 cup whipping cream, chilled › 1 tsp maple syrup › 1 tsp Calvados

Serve warm or at room temperature with very softly whipped Calvados Whipped Cream, made by whisking the cream with the syrup and Calvados in an electric mixer until cream holds soft peaks.

quicktips

Create a holiday décor EASILY IN YOUR HOME When it comes to holiday decorating, there are several ways to stay on trend while keeping your own style. More importantly, changing up your holiday style does not have to be a big expense. Samira Gagne the manager of trend and design for The Home Depot Canada, shares top ways to personalize your holiday space while keeping it simple: Get wrapped-up in the holidays: The presentation can be just as, if not more, exciting than the actual gift. Taking some time to think about how you’re going to package and wrap gifts is a great way to personalize and add your own unique flare to the gifts you’re giving your friends and loved ones this holiday season. Add a personal touch to your holiday decorating: Add your personal unique flair to your holiday décor items by embellishing your basic accessories like wreaths and porch trees with objects and trinkets collected by you and your family.

Gagne recommends using things like acorns, pictures, ribbons, buttons, beads and snowflakes. Remember to decorate your home, beyond the tree or front door. Try filling a glass bowl with ornaments for a seasonal centre piece – and yes, she says, Home Depot has holiday décor ideas both in store and online at www.homedepot.ca. Colour consistency: Keep it simple and consistent. Stick to two or three colours when decorating your home for the holidays. Multiple colours can make your space feel cluttered. For a classy spin on the traditional look, try replacing green décor items with cast iron candle holders or bowls. The combination of the cast iron, gold and red is a stunningly beautiful and chic colour combination. NC

12 THINGS TO PACK LAST It’s time to pack up for your big move! Here’s a helpful list of 12 items to pack last and keep handy

Box cutter – Don’t pack this item at all! It’s the first thing you’ll need to open up all those boxes.

Alarm clock – You don’t want to be out the door late on the first morning at your new place, right? And you may want to keep a radio, CD or MP3 player handy so you can enjoy some music while you work.

Light bulbs and a small lamp (perhaps a flashlight too) – It may be dark when you finally move in.

Cleaning supplies – You’ll want to give your new home a once-over. You’ll also want to make sure you have toilet paper, toiletries and a towel, even a change of clothes for the first day in your new place. If you are on regular medication it’s very important to keep it with you.

Some personal ID, such as a driver’s licence – If you’re opening a new chequing account and applying for utilities, you’ll need proof of your new address too.

Sufficient cash – Sounds silly, but if you’re moving far and opening a new bank account, you may have to wait for your first cheque to clear. You’ll also need some time to learn where neighbourhood bank machines are.

Cell phone with charger or regular land line telephone with plug, if your new line’s hooked up. Put these within easy reach. There’s always potential for an emergency.

08 09

Address book – Keep those important telephone numbers handy.

Snacks, and pizza or fast food numbers and coupons – You’re going to work up an appetite, so think about treating yourself to a quick bite or your first food delivery call.

Lots to drink – Have plenty of water, pop, juice or other refreshments, and some drinking glasses. Dehydration is a sneaky beast, so be prepared. Thirst always seems to come first, particularly if you have to lug that stuff by yourself.

The tool box – Hammers and screwdrivers, Allen keys, nails and screws, Scotch tape, duct tape and especially a tape measure.

Extension cords and batteries – Everything’s electric these days. Computers, CD players, your iPod and cell, and all those little gizmos you just can’t live without. It just makes sense to keep that extension cord and fresh pack of batteries within easy reach.

Tips To Choose

YOUR NEW MATTRESS WISELY BY BRAD WARNER

Getting a good night’s sleep is often very elusive. This, in part, may be because of a worn or inappropriate mattress. Making a better decision on a mattress purchase will address physical issues remedied by better quality sleep and improve your quality of life. A well-chosen and cared-for mattress in any home can last up to 10 years, so it pays to select wisely. Here are a few tips:

be shy; salespeople understand how important it is to find the right style and firmness level for you.

› Shop with your spouse or sleeping partner. Be sure to both lie down on the mattress together. The mattress should serve both your preferences and needs.

› Wear comfortable clothes with lots of give, and shoes that are easy to slip off. This type of clothing allows you to move comfortably when testing a mattress.

› Voice any health concerns that might be associated with sleep, such as back problems or allergies. Indicating these issues to the salespeople allows them to suggest the right mattress for you.

› To gauge the right comfort and support level, lie on the mattress in your sleeping position. Support needs differ according to how you sleep. For example, if you sleep on your side, you actually need more cushioning, because your body weight is supported on less surface area than if you sleep on your back or stomach.

› Try several, and once you have narrowed down your choices, spend 10 to 15 minutes on each. Take your time and let yourself feel the differences in each mattress. Don’t

› Don’t be confused. Trust your instincts and feelings when lying down, as often that will help you make the right decision.

› If you need physical information about the mattress or mattresses you’re considering, ask about product literature or if there are crosssections or “cutaways” of the mattress interior to view.

› Be practical. Think about how you will get the mattress and box spring into your bedroom. Homes with narrow stairways and corners should consider options, such as split-bases/box springs and Marshall folding mattresses. These features eliminate damage to the mattress and your home during the delivery and installation process. › Ask about your warranty. Any

mattress worth buying should be backed by the manufacturer. To ensure your warranty remains valid, ask about proper mattress (set) installation and overall care.

› Make your decision based on value, rather than price. Take advantage of sales promotions if the choice is right for you. Spending a few extra dollars now can make a huge difference down the road. You always get what you pay for. The more educated you are as a consumer, the more chance you have of selecting the mattress that will serve you well for years.

REFRESH THE DOS AND DON’TS of party etiquette Dinner parties are a dime a dozen during the holiday season. And while you mingle your way from one soiree to another, it’s important to remember to be a gracious and pleasant guest. To remind us of our dinner party etiquette, here are some tips from food and entertaining specialist, Korey Kealey: Do bring a gift. A bottle of wine, a box of chocolates or even an aromatic candle can go a long way. But remember if you bring flowers, also bring a vase. The last thing you want to do is make the host dig around for a proper place to display the arrangement. Don’t bring an unexpected guest. Your host has likely set the table and prepared the food for a specific number of people. If you want to bring someone with you, make sure you clear with the host in advance.

Do offer to help the host and bring a warm appetizer to lessen the work she has to do. But don’t rely on her oven. While the main course bakes away, consider bringing your dish in a slow cooker, such as the CrockPot Cook & Carry, to keep it warm without cluttering the host’s kitchen. Don’t be late. It takes a lot of work to plan a meal for a specific time. Showing up late can really throw the host in for a loop and dramatically alter the outcome of the meal. Be sure to arrive within 10 minutes of the suggested time. Do offer compliments and send a thank you note. The host has gone through a lot of trouble to throw a memorable event and will appreciate honest praise. A “thank you” as you leave for the night is great, but to really show your host your appreciation, send a hand written note to say how much you enjoyed yourself. More slow-cooking information is available online at crock-pot.ca. NC

What to look for in an apartment BY JANE HERMAN

re you feeling a little overwhelmed by the challenge of trying to find an apartment? Even wading through all of the ads and listings in Renters Guide can be daunting, unless you understand how they are organized. But where do you start? The first criteria in your decision should be price: How much can you realistically afford to spend per month? Most financial planners recommend that your rent (not including extras such as parking, hydro, cable, etc.) should amount to less than 30 per cent of your monthly income. This may be hard to achieve, but thinking about how much you can spend on rent will also help you to set up a budget. Include all expenses you’ll be responsible for each month (food, utilities, telephone, transportation, laundry, parking, etc.) and other, annual or variable expenses, such as clothing, moving expenses, renter’s insurance, savings, recreation, entertainment, etc. The more you spend on rent, the less you’ll have available for other things. Next, determine what area you want to live in. How will you determine where to look? If you are new to the area, you may want to live near friends or relatives, within a certain commuting radius of work or school. If you have children, do you want to live in a particular school district? Are parks and play areas nearby? Is proximity to the transit or a major highway may be a priority Is the area convenient to shopping, library, recreation facilities, entertainment, restaurants, etc. What are the traffic patterns in the neighbourhood? How is the traffic at rush hour? How are the noise levels in the area at different times of the day, and would this be a factor in your decision? With these factors in mind, make a list of several different neighbourhoods in which you could look: Area 1: ________________________ Area 2: ________________________ Area 3: ________________________ Type of accommodation: Many apartments are in highrises. A highrise building is one that is six or more storeys, has elevators, security, laundry

facilities, and, frequently, sports and/or recreation facilities and other amenities, as well as efficient electrical, heating and plumbing systems. A walk-up or low-rise would be less than five storeys high, may have no elevator and few conveniences. However, the rent would generally be less at this type of apartment than at a highrise building in the same area. Other kinds of apartments you could rent include: A basement apartment is a basement in a house that has been converted to an apartment. It may have a separate entrance. The apartment may have its own bathroom, kitchen, laundry room and heating system, or it may share those amenities with the rest of the home. A low rise apartment building may also have basement apartments. A duplex, triplex or fourplex is a group of two, three or four apartments together in the same building. Apartment Features Search through the Renters Guide listings to find those that match your criteria. They are organized by area. You should also use Renters Guide companion website, hometrader.ca. It is an excellent source of apartment listings, also organized by area. You can also find potential apartments by walking around or driving through the area you have chosen, or through word of mouth. If a friend or relative is happy living in a particular building, chances are you will be too. When you go to look at apartments, inspect them thoroughly before you sign the lease or give a first month’s rental deposit. Some landlords have a condition checklist on which to record details upon move in and move out. Be sure to inspect walls, floors, bathroom and kitchen faucets and fixtures, appliances, windows, doors, etc. Make sure you note such things as the condition of the property and the building. Note the size and location of the closets. You may want to take along a tape measure to see how your furniture might work in the space. If you go through the process carefully, chances are you’ll be more satisfied with your decision after you move in.

Rental Agreements L]Vi Ndj H]djaY @cdl 7Z[dgZ ndj H^\c V AZVhZ

hen you rent a home or apartment in Canada, the landlord will usually ask you to sign a written rental agreement. This legal contract is also often called a â&#x20AC;&#x153;lease.â&#x20AC;?

Under the laws of each province and territory, tenants and landlords have certain rights and responsibilities whether they have a written agreement or not. Nevertheless, a written lease agreement can help spell out all the terms you and your landlord want to have covered and agreed to. You may also wish to seek legal advice before accepting the terms. To help you know what to expect, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) offers the following list of terms that can be found in most rental agreements: t 5IF OBNFT PG UIF MBOEMPSE BOE UFOBOU T t 5IF BEESFTT PG UIF IPNF PS BQBSUNFOU ZPV BSF SFOUJOH t 5IF NPOUIMZ SFOU ZPV BHSFFE UP QBZ XJUI PS XJUIPVU VUJMJUJFT QBSLJOH DBCMF UFMFWJTJPO PS PUIFS TFSWJDFT t 5IF EBUF XIFO UIF SFOU JT EVF GPS FYBNQMF PO UIF m STU EBZ PG FBDI NPOUI t 5IF BNPVOU BOE UFSNT PG BOZ SFOU TFDVSJUZ PS EBNBHF EFQPTJUT ZPV BHSFFE UP QBZ

Packing Tips and List I^eh id bV`Z ndjg bdkZ V a^iiaZ ZVh^Zg# PACKING TIPS

P P

Gather boxes in all sizes from friends, neighbors, and stores.

Create a “portable packing kit” with marking pens, a tape measure, packing tape, twine, and scissors. Carry it with you as you pack up items around your home.

P P P P P P P P P

Reinforce the bottom of boxes with extra tape for added strength.

Don’t move ﬂammable, combustible, corrosive, or explosive items such as paint, gasoline, and ammunition.

Pack a bag of personal items you’ll need during the move (change of clothes, toiletries, medicine, maps, food, and drinks). Keep it in an easy-to-ﬁnd place when you pack

Collect cushioning material such as bubble wrap, foam pellets, furniture pads, old blankets, plastic bags, tissue paper, newspapers, and small towels to use as padding inside boxes.

Label each box with the name of the room in your new home where it should be placed. List the contents of the box on the side of it. Number the boxes and keep a list of which boxes go in which room in your new home. Label boxes containing fragile items with large red lettering. Place china in plastic bags and stack plates upright on their sides, not ﬂat. Pack your TV, stereo, and computer in their original boxes whenever possible. Keep boxes to 50 pounds or less. Pack heavy items into their own smaller boxes and place lighter items together into larger boxes. (Hint-Don’t pack all your books into one box!)

GENERAL MOVING TIPS

P Disconnect and bundle cords on television and stereo components. Label each cord with masking tape and a description of where to connect it.

P Plan and measure where you furniture will be placed in your new home. It’s helpful to draw a layout of your new home and sketch in the major furniture pieces.

P To save time on moving day, move your boxes from the basement, upstairs, or attic to the main ﬂoor prior to the move date. Consider carrying items from the back yard to the front yard or garage ahead of time.

P Keep your phone connected through moving day to stay in touch with friends, family and the moving company.

Entertaining

holiday style

2?60. 429:.;

IT’S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR – friends are gathering, family is arriving, the food is cooking, the presents are stacking and you are hosting a highly anticipated holiday event. In our house, the holiday party is a not-to-miss affair, I take this season very seriously and expect nothing less from my guests. It’s the one time of the year where everyone clears their schedules and unites together.

Much like interior decorating, we suggest planning your holiday décor in advance. Decorating for the holidays goes beyond just dressing your tree and hanging the lights. It also means setting your holiday table, decorating your entrance and creating a festive atmosphere around your house, especially if you are expecting guests. Prepare yourself for the amount of guests, the length of their stay and how many events you’ll be hosting. If you’re not hosting but rather attending, you still may want to make your home look and feel festive. The same principles apply to decorating your home day-today as they do to decorating your home for the holidays. The most important rule of design is consistency. Allow your holiday décor to reflect, in this case, a new season and embrace the spirit of the holidays. Start with a theme. Usually, I would say to stay away from any themed décor however, when it comes to the holidays I say, “Go wild!” Generally there is an excitement when it comes to the holidays and when entertaining I like to bring that excitement out in the details. For luxurious touches, what screams luxe more than glitzy gold or shimmering silver? You can add silver-rimmed wine or champagne glasses accompanied with gold leaf charge plates at the dinner table. This year – we would suggest mixing your metals similar to what we are seeing in fashion, you don’t just have to choose one. Want to try a new spin

on traditional hues? You can incorporate royal jewel tones like emerald green and deep amethyst with silver accents and create your own classic design. However, if it’s fresh and modern décor you’re ready to implement, try black and white punctuated with crystal accessories or gold finishes. Incorporate things that are simple with something somewhat special. It could be your grandmother’s antique china mixed in with modern flatware, or historic family ornaments decorated in new apothecary glass vases. When it comes to tabletop décor, a real statement comes from adding volume and height with various vignettes. If you want to leave your dining table strictly for tableware then decorate around the room or on the buffet table. You can add one large centrepiece in the middle and several smaller ones around the room or across the table. While flowers are typically thought of as common centrepieces, we like to add contemporary details like birch trees cut down to size, faux antlers, lots of candles and even fur throws on dining seats. Whether it’s a family holiday affair or a celebration for New Year’s Eve – be sure to deck your halls, dress your mantle, accessorize your tree, and set your tabletop.

quicktips

Choosing “the one” Run your ﬁngers along the needles and to give the tree a shake. If the tree is fresh, the needles should be pliable and few should fall off. Make sure the trunk of the tree is straight and at least six inches long so it will ﬁt easily into a tree stand. A tip would be to measure your tree stand ahead of time to determine the maximum trunk size it can accommodate. As well, make sure to measure the ceiling height at your home before buying the tree. Trim time Once you have the tree at home, cut about one-quarter inch off the bottom so that it can absorb water more easily, which is crucial to its survival. When purchasing it, ask a Home Depot associate to do this for you. Once home, place your tree upright in the tree stand, unwrap and prune branches as needed. Even if you don’t want to prune the entire tree, you should always trim the lower branches to make for easier access underneath.

Make your FRESH-CUT TREE last longer BRINGING A FRESH-CUT TREE INTO YOUR HOME IS A GREAT WAY TO GET INTO THE HOLIDAY SPIRIT. There is just something about the way it smells that brings a smile to faces young and old. To keep your tree healthy and green for as long as possible, take a look at these tips from The Home Depot Canada:

Make decorating a family affair When decorating the tree, try choosing a colour scheme that matches your home’s décor. If you prefer a classic look you may opt for traditional colour accents. However if your home is more eclectic try a modern mix. The Martha Stewart Living holiday collections have beautiful ornaments in all colours and sizes including ‘Celebrate’ (gold and brown), ‘Arctic’ (blue and silver), and ‘Winterberry’ (red, green and gold). Having a complementary colour scheme makes decorating easy. By following these simple tips, not only can you be sure to pick an attractive tree, but you can also keep it fresh for three to four weeks in your home. More information about decorating can be found online at www.homedepot.ca or at a store location in your neighbourhood. NC

PEOPLE MAKE THE DIFFERENCE CRBP focuses on the human perspective

BY TED WHITEHEAD

he Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP) relates to rental apartment buildings, but was established on the foundation of providing rental housing consumers with the confidence that comes with quality assurance. In other words, the CRBP is as much about people, as it is about the physical bricks and mortar of the apartment buildings that are part of it. A rental home is still a home, and just as with ownership, the surroundings should nurture an acceptable quality of life for tenants. That is why the Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO) created this program – to offer a recognized symbol of quality and a proactive approach for those seeking rental accommodations and help them zero in on a well-run, well-managed building more easily. When a property manager, and/or owner register a building with the CRBP, it is a pledge that all involved with the buildings’ operations will uphold standards that protect the safety and comfort of all tenants. The program’s people-focus component is strongly reflected in the mandatory training course which property managers and their building staff attend. Those enrolled learn how to meet the requirements of the program’s Standards of Practice, and how following them improves daily building operation and the quality of service they provide to tenants. The program’s Standards of Practice also reflect a peoplefirst focus. In fact, the program ensures that each successfully certified building practices over 36 established building operations, resident management services, financial management, and human resource management standards. The latter category includes ensuring the building’s staff are provided with training and education opportunities to continually upgrade their professional skills and competencies. Increasing the level of professionalism of a CRBP-approved building’s management, and their

employees, goes hand-in-hand to ensure that the quality assurance promise the program makes with consumers can be successfully met. Certified owners and/or property managers also agree to conduct business according to a Member Code of Conduct. This brings great peace-of-mind to renters and offers a clear, concise reminder of what is expected of them once their buildings have been granted certification status. For renters, this means improved communication with the building manager and/or owner, as well as a higher quality of life. The key word in the Code of Conduct is “professionalism.” It is interesting that the Code of Conduct is based on the golden rule – again, focused on people. Everything about the CRBP involves respect for the buildings and for those who live and work in them. Any time a tenant or prospective tenant sees the Certified Rental Building logo at a multi-residential apartment building in Ontario, they know they can count on it for quality assurance and peace of mind once they have selected their apartment home. Fairness, conscientiousness, honesty, integrity, respect – these are the concepts that form the basis for the CRBP Code of Conduct. Because when it comes right down to it, a “home,” whether owned or rented, is defined by the people who live in it. Visit www.crbprogram.org for more information.

Ted Whitehead is Director of Certification, Certified Rental Building Program, Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO).

DEBT Relief B Y GAI L VAZ -OX LADE

ometimes it feels like you’re in an impossible situation. You’ve tried getting a consolidation loan, but with the tight money markets and your crappy credit history, no one wants to be your lender. So you look at the ads for credit counseling, debt consolidation and debt relief companies and think, “Maybe this is the answer.”

Here are some things you need to keep in mind. With any debt management plan, you make your payment to the company you’re dealing with, and they distribute most of that money to your creditors. (Yes, they all get their pound of ﬂesh, so you are PAYING for this service, even if it doesn’t feel like it.) So you only have to make one payment. For their fee, these organizations lower your interest costs and eliminate fees, so more of your payment goes to your

finances balance. But if you’re dealing with lenders who won’t compromise, your debtmanagement plan won’t work as well as if your creditors roll over. You should research the company with which you’re going to deal very carefully since these organizations range in quality. We’re talking about fixing a problem here, not making a bigger problem.You need to be absolutely sure this is going to work in your favour (when all the costs are counted) before you proceed. Get it in writing. Understand all the terms and conditions. And don’t take,“If we can’t help you, we won’t charge you”as a guarantee. That just means they’ll leave you high and dry if their negotiation fails. Often when you enroll in a debt settlement plan you will be told to make no payments to your unsecured creditors. This will have to outcomes: (1) you’ll save the money you would have been making in payments to establish a debt settlement pool, and (2) your creditors will watch your account go into huge arrears, making them more willing to negotiate a settlement. After several months your debt management company will contact creditors and attempt to negotiate favourable lump sum settlement that will be paid out of your debt settlement pool. Know that if you take this route your credit history will be shot. If you already have a crappy credit history, this may not be a problem for you. But if you’re in the least bit concerned about keeping your credit score shiny, this isn’t the way to go. While each organization is different, the plans they come up with are pretty much all the same since lenders don’t give preferential treatment to any one company. Your debt management advisor determines how much it will take to pay your creditors off in three to five years. The main benefits are that the interest clock is slowed down (or in some cases stopped completely) and that collectors stop call. And you usually have the option of paying more when you have extra money so you can get back into the black even more quickly. One of the big drawbacks of using a debt counseling or debt management company is that they don’t come with any

serious advice, so people often fulfill their commitment and then go right back out and rack up their debt again.You need to work with a company that does a full assessment of your financial picture. If they company only deals with the debt, you’re at risk for being a repeat offender. If you’re working with someone who is knowledgable and compassionate, the process can be smooth. If your advisor sees you as just one more customer, if she is judgement, if he is pushy, you need to find another counselor. You shouldn’t think that debt management is the easy way out.You still have lots of work to do. But if you’re getting the right kind of guidance, this can be easier. Be careful however. The last thing you want to have happen is that you get to the end of the process only to find it isn’t the end: that there are fees and interest rates that have accumulated throughout the process and you’re still on the hook.Yup, it’s happened. Debt management is not right for everyone. I’ve seen people enter into the process and then accept credit and start charging again. Dopes. If you’re not committed to living without credit, don’t even bother getting started.You’re often required to commit to living without credit until you’re debt free, and if you break this rule there can be dire consequences. Also keep in mind that this kind of service works best for those with unsecured debt, like a credit card or unsecured line of credit. If you owe taxes, child support, or on anything for which someone else is signed, this won’t work.

Perhaps the biggest surprise for most people is the fact that consolidation, credit counseling and debt management may not BE bankruptcy, but they are often treated as such by future lenders.Your credit history will take a hit that last as long (or longer, in some cases) than bankruptcy. Anything that says,“He couldn’t manage his bills”is a red ﬂag for lenders. I’m not a big fan of any of these services. I believe: 1. If you can’t keep a roof over your head and food in your belly, and pay off your debt in three years or less, you need to go and see a bankruptcy trustee. You are exactly the person bankruptcy was meant to help, and if you just can’t make it work, bankruptcy may be your only option. 2. If you can make your payments, then you need to call and negotiate with your creditors, come up with a plan and follow through. Taking personal responsibility is the only way to make sure you NEVER make the same mistakes again. And if you don’t have the wherewithal to make this better, it’s only a matter of time before you back in the hole. It’s your money. Now it’s time to take control of it.

RBC Poll asks the ugly sweater question:

What do Canadians do with gifts they don’t like?

round this time of year, Canadians may start bracing themselves to receive gifts they don’t like, such as the dreaded tacky sweater. If faced with this situation, the majority of Canadians (79 per cent) will smile and thank the gift giver, regift, return the present, or throw it out, according to an RBC pre-holiday shopping poll. One-ﬁfth of respondents (21 per cent) said they rarely face this situation since they make their wish lists known ahead of time. “We all want to give and receive gifts that will be appreciated and enjoyed, yet we’ve all been faced with some version of the ugly holiday sweater present,”said Anne Koski, head, Business and Prepaid Cards at RBC.“One option to avoid the guesswork and the hassles of holiday shopping is a gift card.” For gift-givers who aren’t lucky enough to be provided with gift suggestions, many choose to give a gift card when they want to give choice to the recipient (37 per cent), when they’re not sure of what to buy (36 per cent), when they can’t decide on an actual gift (28 per cent), or when they run out of time (11 per cent). Cash-based gifts are set to be a popular option this holiday season with almost two-thirds (65 per cent) of Canadians planning to give gift cards and one-quarter (26 per cent) handing out cash gifts. These types of gifts may be an easy way to reduce consumer frustrations that are often associated with holiday shopping. While one-in-10 (12 per cent) Canadians surveyed said they love holiday shopping, the majority list multiple reasons on how this time of

year annoys them, including the following: 48 per cent of Canadians surveyed say they are frustrated by the mall and long lineups 44 per cent don’t know what to buy 33 per cent say they have difﬁcult people to buy for 22 per cent have trouble ﬁnding the right item (such as size or colour) 25 per cent feel challenged with managing their holiday budget 13 per cent don’t have enough time to shop RBC Visa Gift Cards make holiday gift-giving easier than ever. Last month, RBC removed most fees on the RBC Visa Gift Card and announced funds on the RBC Visa Gift card will not expire. Available in denominations ranging from $25 to $500, RBC Visa Gift Cards may be purchased at any RBC branch across Canada. More secure than cash, RBC Visa Gift Cards can be used anywhere around the world where Visa cards are accepted, including online, and provide friends and family more options than traditional store gift cards. Learn more about RBC Visa Gift Cards at rbc.com/ visagiftcard.

ABOUT THE RBC POLL The survey was conducted online via Ipsos Reid’s national I-Say Consumer Panel to 3,375 Canadians. The results are based on a sample where quota sampling and weighting are employed to balance demographics and ensure that the sample’s composition reﬂects that of the actual Canadian population according to census data. Quota samples with weighting from the Ipsos online panel provide results that are intended to approximate a probability sample. Data collection was October 1 to 10, 2012. A survey with an unweighted probability sample of this size and a 100 per cent response rate would have an estimated margin of error of ±1.9 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.

SERVE AN ALL-CANADIAN SWEET POTATO PIE this holiday season

he holidays are the perfect time of year to create traditions with your loved ones, in and out of the kitchen. For a guaranteed post-dinner showstopper they won’t soon forget, treat your friends and family to this too-good-to-resist Maple Walnut Sweet Potato Pie. With just a dollop of maple whipped cream and a sprinkle of walnuts on top, this velvety, distinctly Canadian dessert is sure to become a holiday tradition. More seasonal recipes are available online at www.tenderﬂake.com.

3. Whisk maple syrup with cream, melted butter, eggs, flour, vanilla extract, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg until well combined. Whisk in sweet potatoes until smooth. 4. Pour filling into pie shells. Bake in preheated oven, on the lowest rack, for 45 to 55 minutes or until filling is set. Transfer pies to a cooling rack and cool to room temperature. 5. Combine walnuts and maple syrup in a non-stick skillet over mediumhigh heat. Cook, stirring often, for three to five minutes – or until nuts are well glazed. Spread nuts in a single layer on a parchment paperlined baking sheet. Sprinkle evenly with salt. Cool until set. Arrange nuts decoratively around edge of cooled pie. 6. Prepare maple whipped cream by beating whipping cream with maple syrup until very stiff. Dollop onto individual servings and garnish with remaining nuts. NC

Bringing warmth into the home

this holiday season Fresh Canadian mushrooms not only offer up ﬂavour this holiday season, but nutrition and ease of preparation as well.

ncluding fresh mushrooms is a great way to add some tasty nutrients to your holiday meals. One hundred grams (100 g) of fresh mushrooms counts as 1 serving of Fruits & Vegetables. Mushrooms are also low in calories, carbs and fat, they provide vitamins, minerals, ﬁbre, antioxidants, and are the only vegetable with Vitamin D. In addition, they have no cholesterol or sodium and are available fresh from the farm, year round.

These warm mushroom dishes are simple to prepare ahead of time so you have more time to visit with friends and family. Savoury Mushroom Crostini An easy and delicious appetizer that’s ready in minutes. In a hot pan sauté 1 tbsp minced shallots, 1 tbsp minced garlic, 1 tsp minced thyme, 1 tsp minced basil and 1 cup fresh sliced assorted mushrooms for about 4-5 minutes. Add 1 tbsp brandy to pan and ﬂambé. Stir in 2 tbsp chevre (goat cheese) until melted. Serve on lightly toasted baguettes or melba rounds. Mushroom Scalloped Potatoes When everyone comes together, serve a family favourite at the dinner table. The rich full-bodied ﬂavour and texture of sautéed mushrooms and green onions add pizzazz to this “never fail” version of the classic. Combine cooked mushroom and onion mixture with milk, cream cheese, nutmeg, salt and pepper, sprinkle with cheese and breadcrumbs and bake for 25 minutes. Precooked potatoes shorten the cooking time. Baked Mushroom Topped Brie During the holiday season, who knows when guests may arrive? Prepare and chill the mushroom topping to have on hand for spur of the moment entertaining. At serving time, spoon the topping over the brie wheel and bake until the cheese begins to melt. Baking and serving on an oven-proof platter keeps the cheese warm while eating.
