f you’re a regular reader of Renters Guide, you know we offer a variety of information for those looking for a new place to call home. But did you know it is your responsibility as a tenant to know your rights and responsibilities prior to signing a lease agreement? By knowing your rights and responsibilities ahead of time, you will be well informed and able to determine if the location is right for you. Once you choose your location, make sure you understand your lease – and all the provisions in it – before you sign. Over the course of your tenancy a landlord should give you adequate written notice, in accordance with the timelines set out in The Landlord and Tenant Act, when rent or landlord services will be adjusted. You should be able to discuss any clarifications or adjustments before they take effect or a new lease is signed. Many landlords and property management companies do their jobs well and care about the property they own as well as the people who live there. It is in their best interest to keep good tenants. Many go above and beyond. Do you know a terrific landlord or property management team? What makes him or her so great? Let us know. We’d love to hear from you!

t Renters Guide, we have seen the industry grow and change a lot over the past 25 years. We’ve actually been part of the process. Over the years the vacancy rates have changed, the laws have changed, the way that people do business has changed. Take rent payments, for example. Used to be that everyone paid rent one of two ways – you either handed in a cheque on the first of the month or you handed in cash. You – and every other resident in your building went by the management office on the first, though some landlords actually came door-to-door to collect. Now you can pay by cash and cheque, though increasingly, landlords are accepting debit cards, online banking e-transfers and major credit cards. It’s a great way to rack up loyalty points and travel miles if your credit card company offers them! We’ve helped you explore rental living, from neighbourly etiquette to knowing your rights and responsibilities. Our columnists provide expert advice and insight on everything from enjoying onsite amenities to techniques for doing up your apartment’s decor with style and the latest trends. There’s a lot to rental living, and we’re here to help you find that perfect home and enjoy rental living. We’d love to hear your questions and concerns and will try to have our experts provide the answers! Get in touch – email, snail mail, Facebook and Twitter – all great ways to connect. Now get looking for that perfect new place! Our magazine and website, TheRentersGuide.ca, offer the best selection of apartments, informative articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

quicktips

Making Your Place Your Own by PAUL SEMKULEY

you can inject colour and create whatever and however you want, using your furniture, artwork, accessories and rugs. These all are an opportunity to mix pattern, colour and styles, harmonizing a beautiful and unique space. As you begin the decorating process, start by establishing the sofa and area rug. The sofa should be proportionate to the room. A clean, sleek shape with narrow arms suits a small room, and doesn’t waste space. I like to use a neutral fabric – something that will wear well and anchor the room. Accessorizing with patterned and solid pillows in a complementary colour scheme is sure to bring excitement to the sofa and space. Area rugs can also be your beginning point of reference for your living area, especially if there is a particular pattern and colour that you are fond of. I prefer the use of rugs over carpets, as they come in various sizes, colours and designs, but they also allow you to show the surrounding flooring.

I am sure most of us have fond memories of living at home with our parents, and saying, “I can’t wait to get my own place so I can decorate it the way I want to,” after being grounded for painting the walls a horrid colour to our parents’ dismay. We couldn’t wait to get out into the real world and do it “our” way. “Its only paint,” we’d retort, but this somehow never appeased them. Some of us were fortunate to move out sooner than others, usually to university or college, but it still meant we were living in strict policy – dorms (where at the fraternity or sorority houses, anything goes) or a cheap rental – a room in someone’s home or a shared accommodation where painting just wasn’t a option. So, we let the walls be neutral and focused instead on the TheRentersGuide.ca furniture. Interestingly enough, in today’s decorating world having neutral walls can actually be the right thing to do, especially for those afraid of making a colour TheRentersGuide.ca commitment. Think of your home as a blank canvas, and 18

The same thought process should also be used within other areas of your space: beds and nightstands need to be proportionate to one another and within the bedroom, the scale of lamps to the size of the table and room. The same goes for dining spaces. However, as more apartments and lofts offer a more casual setting, you may forgo the dining table and chairs, and simply use stools at the kitchen counter, which you allow you to have more “living” space. Once these key elements have been found, the rest of the decorating will fall into place. It can be taken to an eclectic mix of aesthetics and styles, or a very mimimalist, monochromatic, sleek and chic point of view. Whatever you choose, it will truly be yours… Finally!

UNDERSTANDING the language of

MOVING BY CHUCK R ESNICK

Dolly, LD, corrugated, internal move – hearing the terms used to describe your move may give you panicked flashbacks of high school second language classes.

moving within the province. Although the move is still considered intraprovince, different rates may apply if the move is considered “Long Distance.”

Professional moving can be a very technical business. There are industry-specific terms to describe moving processes and products that most people have never heard before. No need to worry.

Local move: A move in which all stages of moving take place near the moving company’s origin.

Consider the following list your intro to the Moving Language course; you’ll be saying pass the stretch-wrap before you know it! SOME HELPFUL TERMS Appliance dolly: A special dolly with straps to help load and unload large items such as appliances and oversized furniture.

compensate for the higher cost of fuel. When getting a quote, be sure to ask your mover,“Will this be the final cost, or are there additional fees?”

Larger screen TV dolly: A special hard-cased enclosed box with wheels that can safely accommodate any largescreen television to allow it to be moved safely. If you have a large screen TV, be sure your mover has this specialized equipment to make sure it does not get damaged during your move.

Corrugated: Describes a type of cardboard used to make boxes for moving and storage. Corrugated boxes have multiple layers of cardboard called “fluting” that give strength and durability to the box’s structure.

Binding estimate: A flat price based upon a given inventory meaning no matter how long the job takes, the flat price is always paid. This is typically restricted to situations when an on-site estimate is performed. Bill of lading: A contract between the mover and the customer that also acts as a receipt. Make sure you understand TheRentersGuide.ca everything on the bill before you sign it. Fuel surcharge: When gasoline prices are in a period of flux, some movers will charge the customer an added fee TheRentersGuide.ca in addition to the cost of the move to

Dish cells: Cardboard inserts that provide individual cubicles for your dishware within a cardboard box. Dish cells give extra support to breakable dishes and prevent the box from caving or allowing direct contact between pieces. Internal move: A move in which the items stay in the same building. Internal moves are useful for preparing your home or office for painting, carpet cleaning, furniture rearrangement and holiday decorating. LD: Short for long distance move. Many provinces regulate the moving industry based on the distance the items are

Non-binding estimate: When an in-home estimate cannot be conducted, the customers give a description of items to be moved. The mover then gives the customer his best guess of what the move will cost based on his previous experience with similar jobs. These estimates are typically requested by the customer last minute, agreed to over the phone and are subject to change. Stretch-wrap: A thin plastic packing and moving material used to secure moving blankets covering your items during the moving process. Stretch-wrap is used to protect your furniture from precipitation, sweat and tearing. Shrink-wrap: A thicker plastic, which requires heat to adhere to furniture. Typical items do not require packaging this thick for moving. Like learning any new language, it’s important to ask questions. If there is a term you do not understand, ask the representative from your moving company to clarify. Confusion about some moving terms is not only frustrating, it can be costly.

10 WAYS TO REDUCE

your tax bill For individuals

1. Plan ahead – Make sure to gather your receipts and NETFILE code, register for My Account, and sign up for direct deposit before April 30. Submitting your income tax and benefit return before the tax-filing deadline means you can avoid having to pay late-filing penalties. 2. Tax-free savings account – A tax-free savings account (TFSA) is one great way to save money, since you don’t pay tax on any income you earn from investments in your TFSA. 3. Registered retirement savings plan – Any income you earn in a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) is exempt from tax, as long as the funds stay in the plan. RRSPs help you save for your retirement and get a break at tax time too. 4. Public transit tax credit – If you or someone in your family is a regular user of public transit then you may be able to claim a non-refundable tax credit based on the cost of eligible transit passes.

he holiday decorations are all packed away, the New Year’s resolutions made, and spring is around the corner. Before you know it, tax season will be here. Before you start filing your taxes, here TheRentersGuide.ca are 10 ways that may help you reduce your tax bill and may even land you a refund. TheRentersGuide.ca

5. Pension income splitting – If you are receiving income from a pension, you can split up to 50 per cent of eligible pension income with your spouse or common-law partner to reduce the taxes you pay. 6. Students – Are you still in school? Students can claim the tuition, education, and textbook amounts. Have you graduated recently? You may be eligible to claim the interest you paid on your student loans. 7. Child care expenses – For those who have children, you may be able to claim child care expenses that you or your spouse or common-law partner paid so that either of you could work, do research, or go to school. 8. Home buyer’s tax credit – If you’re a first-time home buyer you may be eligible to claim $5,000 on the purchase of your new home, which can save you up to $750.

For people who are self-employed 9. Hiring an apprentice – Did your business employ an apprentice? A salary paid to an employee registered in a prescribed trade in the first two years of his or her apprenticeship contract qualifies for a non-refundable tax credit for the employer. 10. Creating child care spaces – Did your business (which is not mainly a child care services business) create licensed child care spaces for the children of your employees? If so, you may be eligible for an investment tax credit for the child care TheRentersGuide.ca spaces you created. More tips on how best to prepare your 2013 income tax and benefit return can be found online at www.cra.gc.ca/getready. NC

renting a home BEFORE YOU START YOUR SEARCH

f you’re in the market to rent a home, you may end up having to make a few compromises when it comes to choosing the neighbourhood, features, and price range.

o help you make the best decision possible, it is a good idea to make a thorough list of all your needs, TheRentersGuide.ca requirements and preferences before you begin your search.

obvious cost, there are also many other less-visible expenses that are often overlooked, but which can easily add up over time. When figuring out how much home you can afford, don’t forget to consider such questions as:

For most people, one of the most important considerations is cost. TheRentersGuide.ca While the basic monthly rent is an

Are utilities such as heat, electricity, water, cable television and Internet connection included? If these costs

aren’t included in your rent, find out which utility companies provide services to the building, and contact them to see if they can give you an idea of the average monthly costs. Of course, the exact costs will fluctuate in different seasons and from tenant TheRentersGuide.ca to tenant, but these estimates should at least give you a good idea of how much you need to budget on a

monthly basis – and help you avoid any unwelcome surprises later. » Are features such as laundry and parking included, or will you need to pay more for the use of these services? » Will your monthly travel costs increase, decrease or stay about the same at the new location? » Will you need to purchase or provide your own appliances? » Is there any form of provincial or territorial rent control in place? If not, what are the landlord’s plans for future rent increases? How much you can afford to spend on rent depends on a number of factors, including your overall household income, how much debt you or your family are comfortable with, how

important your lifestyle is to you and how much you want to put aside for the future. As a general rule, however, your entire monthly housing costs – including rent, electricity, heat, water and municipal services – should total less than 30 per cent of the before-tax income of your household. This doesn’t include the cost of property insurance, parking, cable, telephone and Internet service, each of which should also be figured into your budget if you plan on using them. If you can’t find a suitable place in the area where you’re looking that meets your price range, you may want to revisit your list of preferences, and decide if there are any other costsaving measures you can make. After cost, location can be the most important factor in a rental search. Prime locations that are close to work, school, public transit or other

amenities usually cost more, but they may also offer other advantages, such as reduced commuting time and expenses. Lastly, other important considerations in choosing a rental home are the safety of the building and community, as well as its proximity to family and friends. To help you decide, prepare a list of locations that best match your needs, and then add another list of secondary locations that you could also consider if necessary.
