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 include 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.

ow it’s heating up! It’s time to get out summer wear and expose those toes. In a very short while you’ll be able to languish poolside in your free time.

Your home doesn’t have a pool? Mine either. That’s one of the beautiful things about rental living – amenities. I always loved running down to the pool when the mood struck me. And I also liked the ability to escape for an hour and go to the fitness room. It was my sanctuary, where I could run my endorphins up and yoga my worries away. When choosing your next rental, don’t just consider SPL – size, price and location, consider FLA –fun, lifestyle and amenities. You may be surprised to find what kind of amenities are out there. With workout facilities you can save some money by cancelling your gym membership. With a pool on the grounds you know you’ll enjoy the summer even more. So will the kids. In fact, with kids you may even want to search out a building with on-site childcare, what could be more convenient? There are many other amenities to consider, found in various communities throughout the city, both indoors and out. There are buildings with screening rooms and leisure spaces where you can hang out with friends, get neighbours together for a card game or enjoy a hobby. There are library and study facilities where you can get a homework study group together. Some buildings offer entertaining facilities with catering kitchens so that you can host celebrations and milestone events, even hook up a DJ and dance the night away. Look for tennis, squash or basketball courts, or simply lovely grounds to walk or picnic. Look around and don’t just measure the SPL of a building, see how it can enhance your life. Why shouldn’t your home offer it all? Renters Guide makes it easy to look for an apartment to suit your lifestyle. Our magazine and website, TheRentersGuide.ca plus our new Renters Guide app for iPhone, offer the best selection of available apartments as well as great articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

Cost-effective tips to cut your clutter BY HELLEN BUTTIGIEG

PRICES KEEP GOING UP AND UP, SO WHEN YOU’RE CUTTING COSTS, why not cut clutter at the same time? You don’t need to spend your hard-earned money on expensive storage solutions – chances are, you may have the thrifty answers in your home already! USE WHAT YOU HAVE. Organizing doesn’t have to cost a fortune; just get creative. Before rushing out to buy bins and baskets, look around your home for containers you can re-purpose. Here are some ideas: » Egg cartons or ice cube trays can be used to organize earring sets, cuff links or hair accessories. » Empty plastic baby-wipe containers can be used to store crayons, first aid or sewing supplies, and they stack easily on a shelf. » Empty baby food jars can be used to keep touch-up paint, spare buttons, or screws and nails. » A mug holder can be re-purposed into a scarf or baseball cap holder. » Empty tissue boxes can hold plastic grocery bags or, with the top cut off, packets of gravy and instant soup.

CORRAL COIN CLUTTER. Do you have loose change in every part of your home? Grab a clear jar and label it Fun Funds. Now you have a designated place to deposit those coins, both reducing clutter and creating a little nest egg. Once the jar is full, treat yourself to a small indulgence and then start again. ZIP BAGS ARE A COST-EFFECTIVE CURE-ALL FOR CLUTTER. Plastic bags that zip shut are for more than just keeping sandwiches fresh. Use the large ones to store shoes when travelling so that they don’t soil your clothing. Use the small ones to organize the contents of your drawers. Place elastic bands in one bag, and cotton swabs in another. Use them for band-aids, cosmetic sponges and bobby pins. Items remain sorted, clean and dust-free. Bonus: no need to label because you can see the contents clearly. WANT TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF PAPER PILING UP IN YOUR OFFICE, AND SAVE TREES AND MONEY AS WELL? Pull the paper out of your printer and store it in a file folder across the room. Although this may seem counter-productive, you will actually be saving time in the long run. By making it less convenient to print, you will begin to print more consciously and less often. As a result, you’ll have fewer papers to pile, sort through and file later, and you’ll spend less money on print cartridges and paper.

» The large clear plastic container that you can buy prewashed salad in is perfect for storing special occasion shoes, keeping them visible yet dust-free. BEFORE YOU GO SHOPPING, ELIMINATE THE CLOTHES YOU DON’T WEAR TO MAKE ROOM FOR TheRentersGuide.ca NEW ITEMS. Use the “one in – one out” rule: for every item you bring home, let go of one. The advantages are you’ll spend less because you know what you already have, you can buy clothes that co-ordinate with existing items, and you’ll be able to get dressed faster because TheRentersGuide.ca there will be fewer decisions to make.

The importance of

THE ANNUAL INSPECTION B Y TE D WHI T EHEAD

ONE OF THE MAJOR REASONS WHY THE FEDERATION OF RENTAL-HOUSING PROVIDERS OF ONTARIO (FRPO) CREATED THE CERTIFIED RENTAL BUILDING PROGRAM (CRBP) was to help ensure a good quality of life for tenants in certified buildings. One of the program’s Standards of the Practice is that the property manager must carry out an annual suite inspection program at each building. The inspection is for the purpose of determining whether or not the rental unit is in a good state of repair, fit for habitation, has working smoke alarms, and complies with health, safety, housing and maintenance standards. Apartment buildings that qualify under the program comply with the conditions stipulated in the Residential Tenancies Act, which protects renters’ safety and privacy. Interestingly, this Act also outlines tenant responsibilities, and there are many. It’s a matter of respect that has to go both ways to make a building work well. One example is providing access to your apartment when necessary, especially for the purposes of an annual suite inspection. Your property manager (landlord) must give you 24 hours written notice of entry, stipulating the reason and the time (which has to be between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.). He/she should be able to expect co-operation on your part with proper notification. Remember that although your apartment is your “home,” it actually belongs to someone else who has the right to protect that investment and ensure the best welfare of all.

TheRentersGuide.ca “There are valid reasons why a property manager may need to enter your apartment,” says Lynzi Michal, FRPO’s manager of Operations and Member Services.“It may be a case of completing necessary repairs or replacing items, checking the smoke alarm and replacing the battery, or conducting an annual inspection that determines immediate and preventative TheRentersGuide.ca

maintenance needs. This is a very important part of running an efficient and safe apartment building.” A potential mortgagee or insurer of the apartment complex may also need to look inside the apartments to ensure that it is fit for habitation and complies with health, safety, housing and maintenance standards. “Renters also need to be aware that a landlord may enter a rental apartment at any time without written notice in cases of emergency, or if tenants consent to entry at the time they are approached,” says Vince Brescia, FRPO’s president.“When there is a good cause, it benefits everyone involved to cooperate with entry.” Most apartment dwellers want to live in an apartment-home that is being properly maintained by the property manager. The annual suite inspection program helps to ensure the quality of rental product is being consistently maintained. Prospective renters are well advised to ensure that the apartment building they are considering to live in carries out annual inspection program as part of their ongoing operations and maintenance activities. You will also find valid information at frpo.org, the site of the Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario, which created the Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP) to help apartment-seekers find buildings that meet certain standards of quality and service.

CHOOSING

THE RIGHT LANDLORD Six tips from an industry insider By Sheryl Erenberg

1 2 3 4 THERE ARE A LOT OF CHOICES OUT THERE. Here are six tips from Marketing Consultant Sheryl Erenberg, who specializes in rental TheRentersGuide.ca communities: TheRentersGuide.ca 38

5 6

HOW ATTRACTIVE IS THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING? We call this “curb appeal” in the industry. Are the grounds kept? Are the hedges trimmed? Is the grass cut and are the flower beds planted? Is the building sign visible and up to date? If the property looks neglected, the chances are good that tenants will be too! FINDING THE PERSON WHO DOES RENTALS It shouldn’t be an obstacle course or an episode of CSI to get from the parking lot to the person who rents apartments. We call this “The Golden Path” to the product. The “path” should be clean, welllit and have plenty of signs along the way. Ideally, a sign above the enterphone panel should tell you who to call. FIRST IMPRESSIONS ARE IMPORTANT Are you made to feel welcome when you arrive? How hard is the person representing the building trying to assist you? Encourage you to rent? If they are distracted or unpleasant would you want to live there? Trust your instincts. WATCH AND LISTEN TO HOW THE STAFF INTERACT WITH ONE ANOTHER Do they appear to be working as a team? Listen to the radio chatter if you have the chance. Is the conversation between employees pleasant? Professional? A lot can be learned about the landlord by who they choose to represent them and how they train/motivate their employees. YES, YOU CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE! If, while they are with you, the staff come in contact with an existing tenant, listen carefully to their tone of voice, their willingness to assist that customer and watch their body language. Do they know tenants by name when they meet them in the building? How effectively do they handle complaints? This could be you next month or next year! THE LOBBY TEST After your visit, sit in the lobby and do an informal survey by asking passing/waiting tenants how long they’ve lived at the property and whether they would recommend it. A good sample for your survey is five to seven people. Sheryl Erenberg is president of Sheryl Erenberg and Associates. Her marketing consulting firm has advised TheRentersGuide.ca hundreds of developers and landlords over the past three decades. The company specializes in repositioning stigmatized properties and marketing under-performing communities. sherylerenberg.com
