Life events get you moving The decision to move is often triggered by a life event, such as a new job or a new addition to the family, or simply because you want a change of scenery. Whatever the reason, it’s important to address what your new needs are before you start hunting for a new place – rather than during. With all of the information available to you these days, it’s easy to get distracted. To keep you on track and up to date on the latest listings available across

Canada, check out this issue and our website, YPNextHome.ca. Not only will you find an easy way to connect with prospective properties, you’ll be able to dig deep on details such as such as costs, neighbourhood information and much more. Deciding to move is easy, it’s finding the right place that can sometimes be tough. Let us help. Drop us a line and let us know if you have any questions or comments. We’d love hearing from you.

Sometimes it’s hard to decide when to move. Have you outgrown your home – is it too small, or too big? Does the neighbourhood still have everything you need – from building amenities to neighbourhood shops and services? Sometimes when you’re used to living somewhere you just make the best of what you have. But your home should be more than just making do, you should enjoy where you live. Maybe it’s time to consider what your needs are. Take a look around

and decide if you could have something that would add to your lifestyle, make you more comfortable or put you just where you want to be. Sometimes it’s fear of change, sometimes it’s just that moving can seem overwhelming, but sometimes making that move can add so much that it’s worth the effort. Enjoy this issue of Renters Guide, and check us out online at YPNextHome.ca, and get ready to rent your new home!

H&R Property Management Welcoming you home H&R PROPERTY MANAGEMENT offers

spectacular options at Eglinton and Scarlett. With four highrise buildings along Richview Rd., just north of Eglinton, and two more mid-rise buildings just south of Eglinton on Fontenay Court, it’s a perfect balance of urban convenience and tranquil greenspace. The area offers urban amenities – shopping, dining and necessities. With parks, schools and recreational facilities – including an 18-hole golf course - the area appeals to everyone. There is 24-hour public transit virtually at the front door. The area is great for commuters, with Highways 401, 400 and 427 offering easy access. Frequent flyers will appreciate easy access to the airport. H&R Property Management has created both the Richview and the Fontenay Court communities to offer a comfortable and quality rental experience. Located at 1A, 1B, 25 and 39 Richview Road; and 20 and 30 Fontenay Court, buildings enjoy access to great greenspace and parkland surrounding the Humber River with great views of area parks. The lush grounds add to the tranquility and serenity of the location. Both communities offer a variety of suite sizes and great value. Spacious, 10

one-, two- and three-bedroom suites and penthouses include plenty of storage space, including walk-in closets, linen and coat closets, as well as ample cabinetry in the kitchen. Features like enclosed dens, large balconies and ensuites in some of the master bedrooms add comfort to these homes. Richview highrises offer great amenities like newly built fitness facilities, his and her changerooms, saunas and indoor pools – 1A Richview has an onsite convenience store; 25 and 39 Richview offer central air conditioning; 39 Richview boasting both indoor and outdoor pools for some added summer fun! The Fontenay buildings, at 12 storeys, are more intimate with a newly renovated lobby and lush, landscaped grounds on a quiet court. With on-site customer service, residents’ needs are always the priority. In fact, leasing managers and superintendents aren’t just ‘the staff’, residents are neighbours and friends. Most supers have been in their buildings a decade or two – and the few that have left have received warm sendoffs and left big shoes to fill. From resident appreciation events to holiday decorations and celebrations, they create wonderful places to call home.

H&R Property Management has been in the business for over 50 years and has played a role in shaping the residential rental community in the GTA. For three generations they’ve been involved in the business from the ground up – not just managing, but also in the construction of their rental communities. Having been involved in the process from the beginning, from selecting locations to quality construction, H&R maintained high standards into all of their communities While other arms of the company continue to build new real estate products across the GTA, H&R Property Management continues to keep their rental communities modern and well-maintained. With pro- active management and an interest in adopting new technology and innovations, H&R Property Management’s buildings are setting the bar high in the rental industry. H&R makes it easy to find the perfect suite to call home. For more information visit hrpm.ca. Call 416-247-3012 for details or to make an appointment for Richview, and 416-249-2386 for Fontenay.

RICHVIEW, HAS fabulous schools and

many tree-lined streets. This wee Toronto neighbourhood stretches from The Westway on the north to Eglinton Avenue West. On the west, Richview is bounded by Martin Grove, and Royal York Road to the east. While traces of Richview’s pastoral heritage are few and far between (there are two heritage houses still standing), this was once a bustling agricultural community. The centurylong farming history came to a close in 1956, when the last dairy farm was sold to developers. But where did the name come from? In 1852, a post office named Richview opened; shortly afterwards, the name was extended to the surrounding area. The rolling streets are lined with towering trees, while lush lawns back onto bungalows and Georgian revivals. Two features dominate this post WWII–built neighbourhood: schools and parks. A serious suburban

feeling predominates and unless you’re tot is walking to school or a nearby park, owning a car is imperative. This is a family-oriented suburb with many Richview expats returning to raise their kids. Parks and schools make this a perfect place for young families. Of the 13 schools in the neighbourhood (five Catholic elementary schools, five public elementary schools and three high schools), the most famous is probably Richview Collegiate Institute because of its eminent alumnus, Stephen Harper. The Fraser Institute ranks the prime minister’s alma mater 53rd out of 749 schools in Ontario. The area is serviced by three strip malls: 1500 Royal York Road Plaza, Richview Square, and Westway Centre. The TTC runs east-west buses along Eglinton West and Westway Road, which connect to subway stops on the Yonge line. Many north-south bus

routes (Islington, Kipling, Royal York) connect with the Danforth subway line. GO Transit is accessible from Kipling station and connects with the GTA. For motorists, three main highways (the 401, 427 and 409) are easily accessible. Pearson airport is less than 15 minutes away by car. Richview is old-school suburbia, so urban addicts might find it hard to adapt to the auto-dependent lifestyle.

Despite still calling the subway “the metro”, Caroline Aksich — a member of the Montreal diaspora — loves all things Hogtown, from the anaemic, over-crammed TTC to the lighthouse at the end of the Leslie Spit. When not writing or snapping photos, the 27-year-old can be found playing rugby, shooting arrows, sketching flora or chasing after stray cats.

Advice | THE RENTALIST

How to host

a (big) holiday party in a small space By Jackie Marchildon

YPNEXTHOME.CA

MORE ADVICE ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/news/advice

WHO CARES IF YOUR HOME is small, you can still host a great, big holiday party. You just need to know how to create space where it’s limited, decorate so the smallness is forgotten and appreciate how close you are with your friends!

Tip #1: Move the furniture If you live in a one-bedroom apartment, chances are the party is happening in your living room and in your kitchen. I host an annual holiday party, and the guest list continues to grow. Every year, we move our small furniture pieces into our bedroom and leave only the couch. The couch gets pushed to the corner so that it still provides seating, but we make room for dancing. The guest list peaked at 37 people last year, so this year I plan to move the couch completely out of the living room. It’s too big to be shoved into our bedroom, but it will fit cozily in the corner of our kitchen. Open space is important, but people do like to be seated at the start of a party — especially if there is food. Nobody likes juggling a plate and a beverage. My kitchen table stays in its place, but we move the chairs to the perimeter of the living room so that people can sit before the mingling and dancing starts. Make smart furniture choices. A dog crate can easily be turned into a table by throwing a festive tablecloth

over it. I have a side table that is chair height and that can be turned into a stool. Work with what you’ve got. Tip #2: Choose your party food wisely Every party needs snacks. At my event, everyone brings something. Potluck or not, your best bet is to make food that is easy to eat without a table. Don’t make tacos, for instance. People will be picking at this food all night and you’ll be thankful when you’re throwing out napkins and toothpicks, instead of washing a full set of dishes. Choose your dishes carefully too. Do you own 40 cups? I sure don’t. Paper cups and plates will be your best friends. They make for an easy cleanup and you can buy some fun stuff to match your holiday decor. Tip #3: Decorate using your environment It’s easy to create a warm and cozy atmosphere in a small space. I have a fireplace and that helps create a nice ambiance. My neighbourhood has a few shops that sell pine mantelpieces around the holidays, and they look (and smell) great. I throw leftover pine into little bunches and leave them around the house — in little clear candle jars, on the window sills, wherever works. Lights around the windows are a must! My friends have a sunroom that

we always end up in, just off of their kitchen. One year, they cut out a bunch of snowflakes and hung them from the ceiling and it looked beautiful. So simple, but perfect for the sunroom. Nobody knows your home better than you do — decorate it as you see fit. If people are impressed with the decorations, they won’t even notice the tight quarters. Tip #4: Use your space appropriately Your space is small, but you can work around that by rearranging a few areas. Move coats from your front entrance to your bedroom — it’ll provide more space at the front door and eliminate a bottleneck as guests come and go. Open up your fire escape door, use your balcony if you have one, open your home where you normally wouldn’t. If the door is open, it’s okay — it’ll get hot in your tiny home with 40 people in it, and maybe you’ll even invite a few new friends in this way. Tip #5: Take a group photo Always take a group picture — that way you’ll remember how many people you were able to fit in your place. It will help you plan the next year because you’ll remember what did or didn’t work. Plus, it’ll provide you with a photo of what was surely a fun night. Happy holidays!

RENTING vs OWNING

10 reasons renting is better By Anne Marshall

WHILE MANY PEOPLE idealize home ownership and cling to it as a goal, in this time of less stable employment and rising interest rates, it’s not as appealing you’d think. Especially after retirement, the “perks” of home ownership pale in comparison to the benefits of renting. If you’re thinking about making a change to your living situation, here are 10 good reasons why renting is preferable to owning your home. 1. Mobility. If employment or other life circumstances require you to move to a different city (or province), it’s a lot easier to give your landlord notice and hunt for an apartment than it would be to put your home on the market, sell it, and buy a new one.

2. Property maintenance. Whether it’s shovelling snow for 90 days straight in a heavy winter, raking autumn leaves or mowing the lawn in summer, outdoor tasks are the responsibility of your landlord, superintendent or management company, unless your lease dictates otherwise. 3. Fixture repair. When your shower stops running properly, your landlord is the one who has to call and pay for the plumber. If the fridge or stove needs replacing, that’s their financial responsibility.

4. Interest rate invulnerability. Unlike homeowners, your rent is fixed and can only increase by small increments dictated by law once the lease expires. Not so the financial market, which could see you renegotiating your mortgage every couple of years as interest rates and property values change. 5. Access to amenities. Pools, gyms, party rooms and libraries are all fairly common features of upscale modern apartment buildings. In addition, high-density housing is often situated in the heart of the city, close to entertainment and shopping, which opens up a world of possibilities for your social life.

6. No down payment. All you have to come up with to secure your apartment in Ontario is enough to cover your first and last month’s rent. Elsewhere across Canada some landlords may ask for a security deposit rather than the last month, but it will usually end up being applied that way – at any rate, deposits aren’t excessive. With the average home price in Canada now well over $400k, even a very small down payment plus legal fees, plus home inspection, plus, plus, plus – it all adds up to a big investment and a lot of money to pay out on key day.

7. Safety. Living in a rental unit typically means living near a lot of other people, and while that can occasionally be irksome, those country music fans who hold a stomping hootenanny every Saturday night are also going to hear you scream if you’re in trouble, or notice if your car hasn’t moved or your mail starts piling up. 8. Cheaper insurance. Unlike homeowners, renters do not have to insure the property – only the contents. When you get your renters insurance, expect to be paying approximately half of what you would if you owned your home. Canadian renters’ insurance averages $20 to 30 a month in most parts of the country. 9. No property taxes. While you can assume that at least some of the rent you pay goes towards covering that cost for your landlord, it isn’t your financial responsibility. Your rent remains stable and increases in a predictable fashion. 10. Lower utility costs. Heating (or cooling) a larger space than that which you actually occupy is one of the downsides of home ownership. Rental units have more compact floor plans, and in the winter you may even benefit from ambient heat from the building around you, depending on its layout.

IN THE PRIVATELY initiated purpose-

built rental market, the average apartment vacancy rate in Canada’s 34 larger centres increased slightly, to 3.4 per cent in October 2016, from 3.3 per cent in October 2015, according to the fall Rental Market Survey released recently by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). The Rental Market Survey provides data and analysis for both the primary or purpose built rental market and the secondary rental market covering condominium apartments. Report Highlights Saskatoon (10.3 per cent), St-John’s (7.9 per cent), Edmonton (7.1 per cent), Calgary (7.0 per cent) and Saguenay (7.0 per cent) are the major Canadian centres with the highest purpose built rental housing vacancy rates. Victoria and Abbotsford-Mission (0.5 per cent), Kelowna (0.6 per cent) and Vancouver (0.7 per cent) are the major Canadian centres with the lowest purpose built rental housing vacancy rates. On average across Canada’s 34 larger centres, rental rates for a twobedroom apartment rose by 2 per cent compared to last year. The average rent for a two bedroom apartment is $995 per month. Rental condominium vacancy rates ranged from a high of 6.8 per cent in 44

Edmonton to a low of 0.3 per cent in Vancouver. Average month rental rates for a two-bedroom condominium apartment ranged from a high of $2,029 per month in Toronto to a low of $1,033 in Québec City. “Since last year, the supply of apartment units in the primary rental market increased more than the number of occupied units, causing the vacancy rate to increase slightly. That said, regional trends across the country were considerably different, roughly offsetting one another at the national level.” explains Anthony Passarelli, senior market analyst, CMHC. CMHC recognizes that there is demand to fill information gaps with respect to Canada’s housing markets. To address this need CMHC has, for the first time, asked property managers to provide information on the total number of units that have been occupied by a new tenant in the past twelve months. The results of this additional question indicate that the turnover rates in purpose built rental apartments in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and most centers in the Atlantic Canada were above the national average, while turnover rates in British Columbia, Quebec and Ontario were generally below the national average.
