EDITORS’ NOTES

veryone knows that real estate is about location, location, location. Since it’s one of the biggest considerations you’re faced with when it comes to choosing a rental, just what are the critical things to consider when choosing a location? There are so many personal variables it’s really up to you to decide. As an example, if it is just as important to you to be close to your children’s school as it is to your place of work, then look for a place that offers a balance between the two locations. If you own a car and want to use public transportation whenever possible to save on parking and gas costs, look for a well-connected mass transit location. If you’re a walker, close proximity to major amenities should be a definite consideration. Doing errands such as grocery shopping and banking on foot has many health benefits and gives you a chance to meet your neighbours and discover new places too. Don’t let the cost of rent solely dictate your choice of location. Make a list of your personal priorities first and then take the time to assess each location for its merits and weigh your options. Unlike paint and decor, location is the one thing that you cannot change so it’s important to choose well.

Susan Legge EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, National Real Estate susan.legge@wall2wallmedia.com Follow me on Twitter at Twitter.com/SusanLegge

here are some communities that are just special – that foster a feeling of home. It has a lot to do with finding the right neighbourhood and an apartment that suits your needs. And, of course, has great management.

One of my personal favourites was a mid-rise building with a trendy downtown address. I knew most of my neighbours – it was rare that you passed someone in the building who didn’t say “Hi.” In fact, it was common for spontaneous dinner parties and summer barbecues to break out at the most opportune times. It was a fun place to live and will always be one of my favourite apartments. My place was small, it didn’t have much light, it was always too hot or too cold and there was literally no closet space, yet my husband and I adored it.

We moved on when we started our family. Suddenly the idea of a spontaneous dinner party that would go on into the wee hours wasn’t so desirable and carrying a stroller up and down the massive flights of stairs wasn’t very appealing. And anyone with a baby knows, they don’t travel light! Without ample – or any – closet space I was going to be drowning in diapers, onesies and teething toys. Where once it would have been impossible to see ourselves moving out, we’d come to the realization that our beloved apartment just wasn’t a fit for us any more. It’s really important to realize when your home isn’t working for you. It happens to the best of us. Most renters will have a few apartments before they find the one in which they’ll grow old. That’s one of the best things about renting! It’s easy enough to change your home to keep up with your needs. If you’re not loving where you’re living, it’s time for a change. And change is really only 60-days notice away. Find the perfect home – we’re here to help! Our magazine and website, plus RentersGuide.ca and our new Renters Guide app, offer the best selection of available apartments as well as great articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

Suite DREAMS by JO ALCORN photography by JASON HARTOG

YOU SPEND A THIRD OF YOUR DAY in your

bedroom, so it should be a relaxing place to unwind and get that important beauty sleep your body needs. Recently, I gave my bedroom a major makeover. Here are my top tips to create a beautiful and comfortable bedroom retreat on any budget. COOL COLOUR PALETTE. I’ve had red bedrooms

and I’ve had pale blue rooms. I can honestly say colour psychology is real. A cool, serene, colour palette makes all the difference in creating a relaxing room. Go for soft and subtle colours if you want a respite from the busy world outside. For my bedroom makeover, I chose Whistle Stop 50BB from CIL’s paint collection to create a calming effect.

the handles to white, to tie in with the rest of the bedroom design. Another inexpensive project with a big result! LAYERED LIGHTING. I love a bedroom with ambient lighting. A lamp with a soft bulb, mixed with task lighting for reading a book, plus decorative side lamps can add some drama to a room. The white horned oversized side lamps from Mirens I used in my bedroom were the perfect conversational piece in the room. Don’t forget about overhead lighting. This is another great place to add some art to the room. I used a signature Jo Alcorn light from artcraftlighting.com, which added a touch of whimsy to the room. Layering lighting in any room, particularly your bedroom, allows for the perfect mix of function and comfort.

THE PERFECT BED. I had an awkward small

window in my bedroom that I had to hide. I chose a padded headboard that was just high enough to cover the window.

COMFY CARPET OR RUG. Having the perfect texture underfoot

I wouldn’t call myself a DIY’er, but when the time comes, I can step up. I found a headboard with clean lines at HomeSense (homesense.ca) for $300. However, it wasn’t quite the right colour for my project. When I found a cotton, patterned shower curtain for $30, I thought I’d tackle a DIY project and create the perfect headboard. Voilà! A custom-made headboard on a budget.

MIRROR MIRROR ON THE WALL. I love how mirrors

SIDE TABLE CONUNDRUM. Side tables are a useful element to every bedroom. But it can be hard to choose the right one. So many questions come to mind! Do I need extra drawers or countertop RentersGuide.ca space? What height, size, colour or material should I choose? For my makeover, I needed something to match the height and scale of the bed. I found the perfect side table at mirens.com. The side tables had a unique design, with added bedroom storage. RentersGuide.ca With my DIY skills already set in motion, I swapped

when you step out of bed can improve your whole bedroom experience. Rugs add warmth to any space.

create different dimensions within a space. To bring the bed and those amazing lamps to another level, I layered HomeSense mirrors on the wall to add a grand, romantic feeling to the bedroom. Mirrors make your room appear larger, and these ones also added a feeling of luxury and sophistication to the bedroom. Use these simple tips to create your perfect bedroom and ensure you get an amazing night’s sleep!

How to prepare

for the unexpected when moving BY CHUCK RESNICK

MOVING YOUR WORLDLY POSSESSIONS INVOLVES A LOT OF ORGANIZATION, AND IF THERE’S ONE THING PROFESSIONAL MOVERS UNDERSTAND, IT’S TO EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED. In fact, that’s a major reason why many people choose to hand over the task of moving to companies that do this every day. Some do-it-yourself moves go well; others end up unnecessarily stressful because those completing the work don’t anticipate potential glitches. Checklists are great, but every single move is different – and nothing beats experience for transferring household goods quickly, safely and efficiently. For example, if you move in the winter and it’s a snowy, slushy day, how do you protect the floors from water/salt damage at both ends? What about getting large items around hard-to-maneuver corners without marking walls? What if someone gets hurt? Do you know how to pack delicate items like lamp shades and glassware to eliminate shifting and potential breakage during a long haul? What if the truck breaks down or gets into an accident halfway to your new home? Professional movers have resources to draw upon to anticipate and handle any number of unexpected happenings. Training is a great preventative measure – when you shop for a mover, find out if and how the drivers and moving people are trained. Ask whether they have a “Plan B” in case of vehicle problems, and what you can do to be as prepared as possible when the packing/moving begins. As tempting as a DIY move may be, think through the consequences. Are you prepared to deal with the possibility of friends or family members not showing up on moving day due to illness or hurting themselves trying to move heavy items? Do you have a back-up plan for extra items in case you misjudge the size of moving vehicle you need? What about plants? Hazardous liquids? Of course, there are specialty items that require an unusual level of care – pianos, RentersGuide.ca pool tables, grandfather clocks, artwork, antiques and the like. The money you think you’ll save by not hiring a professional mover may end up being spent on repairs if these large and valuable pieces are not handled correctly. Worse yet, irreplaceable items may be lost forever.

And have you thought through unpacking at the other end? On your first night there, you will need bedding, toiletries, towels and some kitchen items. Do you have a plan that includes being able to find those things easily and quickly? All of these considerations and more are covered in the training that Two Men and a Truck franchisees take part in at what we call “Stick Men University” (in honour of the company logo). Among the many things they learn is how to maneuver, wrap, pack and load items ranging from big-screen televisions to china cabinets filled with breakables. If you do decide to move yourself, on the Two Men and a Truck website we provide moving tips, a moving checklist and even special things to consider for extremely large items. Give some thought to what might happen along the way and make contingency plans. And be realistic – hiring a professional mover can offer tremendous peace of mind and is money well spent.
