EDITORS’ NOTES

y

ou’ve decided it’s time to rent a new space. Now you have another decision to make – choosing your property management company. How can you check the reputation of the company or landlord you’re considering renting from? First, find out how long the company has been in business by asking the staff or visiting the company’s website to see what information they offer online.

Most property management companies have well-established business practices in place to ensure that the customer comes first. If possible, drive around existing communities managed by the company you’re considering and speak to some of the renters in the building. Many property management companies will be able to put you in touch with people who would be happy to provide a testimonial. Get a feel for each company and the staff. You should be comfortable and courteous asking questions and in turn you should expect to be treated with consideration and respect. Think twice about any property management company that doesn’t willingly provide any information you respectfully request. Putting the customer first and offering the best quality rental space for your money is a property management company’s ultimate goal. Once you find the perfect space, don’t hesitate in going for it and making it your own! Let us know how your search for a new home goes. We’d love to hear from you!

es, it’s wet. I think we can all admit it’s not the best of weather. I don’t care what the statistics say, I say it’s the worst year I’ve ever experienced. (But I say that every year.) So please, just indulge me and stop reminding me that I’m Canadian. I’ll take winter walks, go ice-skating, spend a day on the ski hills – but I will not say ‘eh’ and I will not accept cold and wet weather. It just depresses me. For those of you who feel the same, picking the right home is a great way to offset the whining. Part of the problem with winter is lack of sunlight. The days are too short and it’s difficult for some of us to contend with. Pick your apartment by exposure. If you’re a morning person, an eastern exposure will get you a sunrise and morning to mid-day sun. If you’re home all day perhaps a southern exposure will max out your sunlight quotient. Opt for a community with underground parking. The less time out in the elements the better. The umbrella in the car doesn’t do you any good if you forget to take it in with you, every time. Finally, try finding a resort-like community. Something with an indoor pool, whirlpool and sauna. The outdoor pool may be a spectacular summer bonus, but in the winter, being able to luxuriate without stepping outside may add the tropical twist that your winter-resenting heart desires. With this in mind, you’re ready for a winter move, and we’re here to help. Our magazine and website, TheRentersGuide.ca, offer the best selection of apartments, informative articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

quicktips

start the new year by freeing yourself by Hellen Buttigieg End procrastination by knowing your payoff Ever wonder how to motivate yourself to tackle that daunting task you’ve been putting off? Rather than dwelling on the chore itself, turn your attention to how you will benefit once the job is done. If you can come up with two or three compelling ways your life will be better as a result of completing what you’ve been procrastinating on, you will find the inspiration to take action. Make your ‘someday’ a reality How many times have you wistfully said, “Someday, I’d like to…” It’s interesting how we often procrastinate on doing the things we most want to do. We continue to put it off because something more pressing always seems to come up. But life is short, and habitually putting off doing those meaningful things that bring us joy can literally suck the life right out of us. One thing that I personally find very effective is to catch myself when I say I’d like to do something, and immediately pull out my calendar and schedule it in, even if it’s not for another month or two… or even six. The trick is to allow enough time to prepare for the event in advance and, once the date approaches, treat it as you would any other appointment you’ve booked with someone important – keep it.

There is so much buildup aT The end of The

year that it can almost feel like a race to the finish line. Then January 1st arrives, the social calendar calms down and the cocooning begins as you prepare to ride out the rest of the winter. Before you jump right back to everything you were doing before the holidays, take some time to look around and decide what needs to change. Not that you have to go making grand resolutions for the new year – unless that’s your thing – but look at it as an opportunity to free yourself of things that weren’t working for you. Try new methods that may improve your life in little, noticeable ways. Get clear on the year ahead If setting New Year’s resolutions is not your thing, there’s another way of defining what you’d like your life to look like – create a vision board. Get TheRentersGuide.ca some magazines, glue and a poster board and start cutting and pasting images that you feel drawn to or that represent something you’d like to be or have in your life. If you would like to learn more about the power of these dream boards, and have a look at some of the ones I’ve created personally, check out my TheRentersGuide.ca blog post, Creating a Dream Board (WeOrganizeU.com)

Make decisions fearlessly Clutter often represents unmade decisions. Many people struggle with indecision because of the fear of making a mistake (especially perfectionists). It may seem easier to avoid making the decision, but by doing so, you are deciding to procrastinate and stay stuck. Whenever possible, make decisions as you go along, before they accumulate. Although there’s no guarantee you will make the right decision, you will be taking the option that appears to be the right thing to do at the time. Avoid berating yourself if the outcome is less than you had hoped, and besides, there’s usually some recourse. See it as a great learning experience and move on. One effective decision-making technique is to ask: “What’s the worse thing that can happen if I make the wrong decision?” and “Can I live with that consequence?”This usually puts the decision into perspective and helps you make it confidently.

CMHC

Renting a Home Know Your rights and responsibilities

W

hether you’re a firsttime renter or an experienced tenant, when it comes to renting a home, it’s important to make sure you understand your rights and responsibilities.

The first step in looking for a home is to identify your needs as a renter. What’s your budget? Which neighbourhood do you want to live in? How many bedrooms do you need? What amenities are important to you? If you haven’t already created a list of your needs and preferences, CMHC’s Rental Search Worksheet can help give you a head start. Once you’ve identified what you’re looking for, it’s time to start looking for your new home. There are a number of resources available to help you find a place to rent. These can range from magazines [Editor’s note: Like Renters Guide!) to newspapers, websites, notice boards and word-of-mouth. When you look at a prospective rental, have a list of questions

To help you through each stage of the rental process, Canada

ready to ask the landlord. For example, you may want to know if

Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) offers the following

the premises, and whether pets or smoking are allowed.

When meeting a landlord, try to make a good impression. Dress neatly and arrive on time. Respect the current tenant’s privacy. And make the landlord’s job easier by bringing your rental history and references, a letter from your current employer, and a cheque so you can leave a deposit in case you’re interested in the home. If you will be viewing more than one apartment, write down the key features of each place so you can compare them later. CMHC’s Rental Unit Evaluation Worksheet can help you evaluate your options and make an informed decision. When you rent a place, the landlord will usually ask you to sign a rental agreement, commonly known as a“lease.”Rental agreements vary from one province or territory to another, but they generally include the names of the landlord and tenant, the address of the property, the amount of the rent and what it includes, the date when the rent is due each month, the amount of any security or damage deposits, the term of the rental period, as well as things like who is responsible for maintaining the property, whether there are any restrictions on the tenant, and when and how the landlord can enter the premises. Once you’ve signed your lease, it’s time to move in! Moving can be a hectic time. A planning checklist, such as CMHC’s Three Weeks to Moving Day, can help you keep track of all the details, and help make sure your move goes as smoothly as possible. Before you move in, you and your landlord should inspect your new home together. Use an Initial Inspection Worksheet to document everything you notice, so you won’t be held liable for any preexisting damage when you leave. Once you’re living in your new home, make sure you and your landlord are clear on who is responsible for what, especially with issues such as emergency or regular repairs, rent increases, or how to handle any complaints that might arise. In the event of an emergency (such as a leaking roof or broken furnace on a cold winter day), try to contact your TheRentersGuide.ca landlord or emergency contact at least twice, and give them a reasonable amount of time

to respond. If you can’t reach your landlord and have to authorize emergency repairs yourself, make sure to document and keep all paperwork related to the repair for later reimbursement. If a problem arises that you can’t work out directly with your landlord, check with your provincial or territorial rental authority to find out if there are any tenant advocacy groups in your community. Do not withhold rent to pay for repairs, as this can be grounds to have you evicted. When your lease expires, you may sign a new lease, or you might shift to a monthto-month lease. Depending on where you live, your landlord could also give notice that they will be increasing your rent. For more information on renewing a lease and rent increases, read the CMHC Provincial and Territorial Fact Sheet for your area. Eventually, the time will come when you’re ready to end your tenancy and move out. When this time comes, you and your landlord

will again inspect the property together, to see if any repairs are needed above and beyond the usual“wear and tear.”Your landlord will also have to return any damage or security deposits you paid when you moved in, plus interest. Remember: you may need your old landlord to give you a reference in the future. So do your best to leave under good terms. Give them the proper amount of notice in writing. Make any necessary repairs. Allow the landlord to show the home to potential new tenants. And leave the place in as good a condition as you found it, so the next tenants will be able to enjoy their new home as much as you did. To find out more about renting a home in Canada, visit CMHC’s online Guide to Renting a Home or call 1-800-668-2642. For over 65 years, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has been Canada’s national housing agency, and a source of objective, reliable housing information.

Top 10 Tips To

Being a good

neighbour By Jane Herman

P

eaceful, harmonious apartment living is all about treating others with respect and consideration. When you act with sensitivity to your neighbours, it’s amazing how others will respond. The following are 10 etiquette tips that make for good neighbours.

TheRentersGuide.ca TheRentersGuide.ca TheRentersGuide.ca TheRentersGuide.ca


1

Keep the noise down. Apartment walls are notoriously thin, and at the best of times, sharing walls is bound to mean hearing your neighbours, so try to consider whether your neighbours really want to hear your activities. Keep in mind that people have different sleeping schedules. Neighbours could be working at night and sleeping when you are awake! Likewise, 10pm is not the appropriate time to vacuum or hang pictures. Avoid loud noise at all times, but particularly late at night and early in the morning, especially arguing, playing music or watching the television at excessive volumes. If you like it loud, consider getting a pair of headphones for your home entertainment. High heels on the floors, bouncing a ball and other repetitive noises will affect the neighbour below, whose ceiling is attached to your floor. The click-clacking of shoes can become quite an irritant.

2

Clothing is not optional! Remember to dress appropriately with at least a shirt and sandals when taking out trash, recycling, doing laundry or getting something from your car.

3

Respect and maintain common areas as if they were an extension of your own home. Tidy up after yourself in the laundry room. After using the barbecue or party room, take out all trash and leave as you found it.

4

Check up on your laundry regularly. Don’t leave it sitting in the washer or dryer after it has finished, it annoys other people who are waiting to use the machine. Invest in a drying rack and dry delicate items inside, not on your balcony.

5

Be aware of your neighbours but also respect their right to privacy. This means not making their business – like when they enter and leave the building, where they are going – or who they are with – your business. While some communities are friendly and open, try to avoid the gossip mill.

6

When cooking, open your window so that it doesn’t smell up the entire floor. Your dinner may smell appetizing to you – but not everyone needs to know what’s on the menu. And when several apartments on the same floor share their dinner aromas it can be an unappetizing sensory overload. There is nothing worse than emerging from the elevator to a pungent-smelling hall.

7

Be cognizant of, and promptly report any crimes or suspicious persons in the building. Be aware of your surroundings, you and your neighbours should be looking out for ear other. It’s your duty to report any signs of domestic disputes, child abuse, or suspicious persons in the building. This is not just a matter of etiquette, but of community safety. Be proactive by maintaining secure practices like locking your apartment door and not letting strangers access your building.

8

Ensure that your pet is a good neighbour, too. To prevent accidents, walk your pet regularly, and make sure he or she isn’t howling all day or barking all night. The balcony shouldn’t be the doggy bathroom, and any accidents out there should be cleaned promptly

9TheRentersGuide.ca

Be a model citizen in the parking lot. Keep the music down and drive slowly and carefully, anticipating seniors and children. Likewise, stick to your own parking space and make sure your guests do the same. Even if you know your neighbour works during the day, stay out of their assigned spot. They may have to come home for a quick break.

10

Waiting for a ride? Honking is just plain rude. Ask your carpool driver to give you a quick ring or text. Better yet, be waiting in front of the building and be prepared. Etiquette is just a set of guidelines for acting in accordance with the needs of others. If you treat your neighbours with respect and courtesy, you’ll help to foster a harmonious apartment community that you too will enjoy.

quicktips

Get the new year off to a Good start with a home insurance review after the excitement of the holidays and the exchanGe of Gifts, many people have a little break around the New Year. It’s the perfect time to review your home insurance policy and update your home inventory, especially if you’ve received expensive gifts such as jewellery, TVs or electronics this Christmas. “Maintaining a home inventory protects you in the event of theft or damage to your home’s contents. Having an inventory helps ensure you have the right amount of coverage and may help speed up the claims settlement process faster after a loss,” says Bill Adams, IBC VicePresident, Western & Pacific.

here are a few tips to protect your possessions in the new year: Note the approximate replacement value of each item, along with makes, models, serial numbers, receipts, credit card statements and other identifying marks. They can serve as proof of ownership. If you have any questions about which items are covered by your policy, contact your insurance representative. If you are renting, remember that your landlord’s insurance policy typically does not cover your personal belongings or liability. It is up to you to ensure you have coverage in place. Contact an insurance professional to discuss your specific circumstances. Renters should also keep an up to date list of their belongings in case of theft, loss or damage. Move room to room and take photos or video footage of all of your valuable possessions. Remember to update your list of inventory as needed. For a complete home inventory worksheet click here. TheRentersGuide.ca Keep your list of inventory in a safety deposit box or other safe place away from home. It is your responsibility to make sure that your insurance company has an accurate and up-to-date description of your home which can help speed up the claims settlement process after a loss.
