EDITORS’ NOTES

new year, a new place?

Here we are, already into the third month of 2013. Perhaps some of your New Year’s resolutions may have already been forgotten, but if finding a new place is still top-of-mind, we hope you’ll find this magazine helpful. As you go about your search and visit potential locations, be sure to 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. Hopefully it is one of the easier resolutions you may have on your list this year. Let us know how your search for a new home goes. We’d love to hear from you.

on’t be taken by surprise when you move into your new apartment! Do your research first and make sure your needs are being met at your new home. There are plenty of little things you should check out before you sign your lease. Don’t just assume that parking or utilities are included – ask. Don’t just guess that there’s a bus somewhere close by – check. And don’t just assume that you’ve lucked into a great property management company – do your homework. Find out if they’ve got any awards or certifications too. Other unfortunate surprises include furniture that won’t fit. While an apartment may seem spacious, you should take actual measurements to ensure. Often the configuration of a space can pose a challenge to placing furniture because of windows, doors, the room shape or the location of the cable outlet. You don’t want to find out on moving day that your couch can’t come with you or that you need to downsize from a king mattress to a double. If you’re not familiar with the neighbourhood, take a walk or a drive. See what’s in the community and where the amenities that you really need are located. Not good to be more than a short walk to the bus if you rely on public transit, and you might want to see where your child’s school is, how far the park is or how close the grocery is, so that there are no surprises! With Renters Guide in hand you’ll find that perfect place. Our magazine and website, homeTRADER.ca, offer the best selection of available apartments as well as informative articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

Resolve to

get organized

in 2013 After the big glittery ball has dropped and resolutions are made, the difficult part begins. To achieve success, observers suggest we break down our resolutions into smaller, more feasible goals. Think short-term. For example, it is well-known that every year, one of the most popular resolutions is to become more organized. This can sometimes feel overwhelming, so here are some simple solutions from The Home Depot Canada to clear and conquer the clutter in your home: Organize your front foyer This space sets the tone for first impressions. Think about stashing useful items such as gloves, hats, scarves and pet supplies in decorative fabric bins. These are easy to label, and make it easy to find items with just a glance. If you do not have a closet in your entry way, invest in a simple shelved console table where you can store your organized items for easy access. A multi-purpose shelf with mounted hooks for sweaters, jackets and coats is essential to keeping your no closet foyer pristine.

De-clutter your kitchen pantry A functional pantry is the key to a functional kitchen. Creating a working pantry can be a big challenge depending on your cooking routine and habits. Take measurements of your space and purchase wire baskets or locking plastic containers to categorize your various ingredients according to your needs. Hang bins inside of the pantry door for popular foods. Not only will this be a time saver, but will also optimize your pantry space. Conquer your bedroom closet Bedroom closets often fall victim to being a dumping ground for items without a â€˜homeâ€™. As you de-clutter, sort items into the following categories: keep, donate, recycle and trash. For the items you do keep, the closet configurator is not only a simple solution, but also an affordable one. With so many options available for a variety of sized spaces, adjustable shelving systems will accommodate your changing needs. By following these simple suggestions you will not only have the tools for organizational success but also be able to check off that New Yearâ€™s resolution without the guilt of past years. More tips on home organization are available online at www.homedepot. ca or at a store in your neighbourhood. NC

Top 10 Renter Issues By Jane He rman

armonious living is all about treating others with respect and consideration. Start by making a concerted effort to avoid these ‘Top 10 Renter Issues.’ When you act with sensitivity to your neighbours, it’s amazing how others will respond.

1. Keep the noise down. Apartment walls are notoriously thin, and people have different sleeping schedules. Remember that many people work at night and might be sleeping when you are heading off to work! Take off those clicking high heels at the door and don a pair of slippers at home. Likewise, please refrain from vacuuming, power tools or hanging pictures at 10pm. Avoid exceedingly loud noise at all times, especially

arguing, playing music or watching the television at high volume. (Consider getting a pair of headphones for your home entertainment.) If you’re having a large crowd over, advise your neighbours. 2. The elevator is for everyone. Upon entering the elevator, if you see another resident running down the hall, (or an elderly resident who may not be able to get there that fast) do the right thing and hold it for them. Likewise, don’t hold the elevator unnecessarily, like while you’re waiting for your spouse/roommate to put their coat on, lock the door, and walk all the way down the hall. You know how annoying it is to wait endlessly for the elevator – especially when you’re in a hurry. And if you have children, never let them play in the elevators (pushing all the buttons and then running out at their floor is not a game). 3. No Smoking. This should be obvious. If smoking is not allowed in your building or on the floor, don’t do it. 4. Consider the environment when cooking. This is one issue that can, unfortunately, be very invasive. What smells delicious and appetizing to some can be, absolutely unappealing and overpowering to others. When cooking – especially when it’s something aromatic – please open your window so that it doesn’t smell up the entire floor. This is especially important when you’ve burned something. There is nothing worse than emerging from the elevator and finding the hall filled with offensive smells. 5. Respect and maintain common areas as if they were an extension of your own home. They are, in fact, an extension of your own home. Encountering a pile of garbage in the trash room is particularly offensive. Always put yours down the chute. And remember to tidy up after yourself in the laundry room, whether it’s used dryer sheets, spills of detergent near the washer or just your used coffee cup or empty water bottle. After using the barbecue, pool area or party room, take out all trash and leave as you found it. 6. Ensure that your pet is a good neighbour too. To prevent accidents, walk your pet regularly, and stoop’n’scoop. Not is it only the right thing to do, it’s your

obligation. Also, make sure your pet isn’t disruptive to neighbours by howling all day or barking all night. 7. Be a model citizen in the parking lot. Keep the music down. Drive slowly and carefully, anticipating seniors and children. Don’t stop or leave your car idling where it will be in the way of others. Stick to your own parking space and make sure guests only park in designated Visitor Parking spots. 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 and this is one major pet peeve that can drive a wedge between people. 8. Keep an eye on the time and on your laundry regularly. Don’t leave your stuff 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. 9. Clothing is not optional! Remember to dress appropriately when taking out trash, recycling, picking up mail, doing laundry or getting something from your car. 10. Be aware of your neighbours but also respect their right to their privacy. Be cognizant of and promptly report any crimes or suspicious persons in the building. This is not just a matter of etiquette, but of communal safety. At the same time, be aware of your neighbours, but also respect their right to their privacy. This means not making their business – like when they leave and enter the building or where they are going – your business. Creating the kind of community you want to live in means treating your neighbours with the simple respect and courtesy you wish to have reciprocated. As they say, “Begin and the rest is easy.”

décor Flowers – A great way to add a personal touch to your guest room is by putting flowers on a bedside table or bureau. The flowers don’t have to be fresh necessarily; dried hydrangeas, for instance, live longer and provide an elegant, vintage look to a room. During the holiday season, try filling a vase with dry arrangements or a large bowl with pine cones for a festive and eye-catching addition. Provide Privacy – Part of making your guests feel at home is providing adequate privacy. Choose window coverings that not only add character to the room, but provide privacy and light control as well. Products such as Silhouette window shadings from Hunter Douglas do just that: the shadings diffuse light through two fabric layers for a radiant and calming effect with the added benefit of providing privacy.

Putting together the perfect

guest room

hat to expect when you’re expecting…houseguests. The key to making a lasting impression on your guests is to provide all the comforts you would expect to find at home, but with a personal touch. As the proverb goes, “a home without guests is a home without soul,“ so as the host, return the favour by filling your guest room with some of that soul. Sally Morse, director of creative services for window fashions company Hunter Douglas, offers the following tips on guest room décor:

Luggage Racks – How many times have you entered a guest room and there was no place to put down any luggage? Arranging a place for your guests’ belongings in a small bedroom can be a challenge, but consider a folding luggage rack that can easily be put away and won’t take up too much space. Closet – A closet is useless without any hangers, so don’t forget to supply at least eight to 10 hangers for your guests. It’s also a good idea to put simple hooks on the wall or behind a closet door for coats, scarves or bags.

Converting Your Office Space – Many people don’t have the extra room in their homes to set up a special guest room, so they combine spaces into multifunctional areas. The work space/guest room is a great option for creating a cozy and versatile space. Once you’ve determined how your multiuse space should be divided, consider investing in a pullout couch, especially if you have frequent visitors. Mirrors – Be sure that there is at least one mirror in the room, whether it’s in the bedroom itself or the bathroom. A floorlength mirror is an added luxury that your guests will definitely appreciate. Small Touches – A little gesture can go a long way. Consider leaving a welcome note or a pouch of lavender on the pillow to make your guests feel special. Also give your guest room an intimate feel by including a family photo or two or some of your favourite books With these simple tips you’ll have a hard time getting your guests to leave.

finances

Pause, then plan, if overwhelmed by money IEF oFFErs thrEE tIps For copIng wIth monEy strEss: • Assess your situation. Take stock of your financial situation, identify what’s causing the stress and make a plan to address it. For example, if you’re overspending every month, use IEF’s budget worksheet to help you account for all expenses and find areas where you can cut back. In addition, if you’re weighed down by debt, use IEF’s pay off credit cards and debt calculator to prioritize which debts to pay off first.

orrying too much about money may be hazardous to your health. A recent study in North America found that people with high levels of debt-related stress are more likely to experience physical and mental health problems, such as heart attacks, high blood pressure, ulcers, insomnia, migraines, anxiety or depression, than those with low debt-related stress.

• Get help. A financial advisor can help provide some perspective and expertise to help you get back on track and feel more in control of your financial situation. Learn how to choose an advisor, and review the eight questions to ask in the “Getting advice” section of IEF’s website. • Keep your eyes on the prize. As you make progress toward your goal, find small ways to reward yourself and stay motivated. Think cheap and cheerful – buy yourself flowers or do something healthy (and free) to take your mind off the stress.

“The impact of financial stress can be felt well beyond your wallet, but it shouldn’t take over your life,” said Tom Hamza, president of Investor Education Fund (IEF), Canada’s leading authority on financial literacy education and research. “The key to conquering money worries is to take action. Even small changes to your financial habits can make a big difference in the long run.”

5 ways

to survive on a student budget

etting an education is the best way to get a head start in the job market. You could earn $7,200 more per year with a college diploma, or $23,000 more per year with a bachelor’s degree, compared to a high school graduate. Find out how to plan and pay for school on the web site, CanLearn.ca/ explore. Going to school is expensive, but government loans and grants can help; combined with a practical budget, getting a degree or diploma can be affordable. Sticking to a budget is possible with a lot of practice and a little creativity. Try out these money-saving tips from real students across Canada: • Apply for scholarships and bursaries. Studentawards.com, and other web sites, offer many scholarship opportunities. You could get hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars every year to support your education.

• Make your own meals. There are four keys to shopping for cheap food: avoid brand names, buy in bulk, watch for sales, and don’t be afraid to clip coupons. • Walk or bike to get around. It will definitely save you a chunk of change. For longer trips try carpooling or finding a ride-share. • Look good on a budget. Hairdressing and esthetic schools usually offer free services and discounted rates on practice days. You could also buy a less expensive electric rechargeable razor, instead of throwing away disposables. • Keep yourself entertained for less. Borrow free DVDs from the library, or go to the theatre on cheap night. Try soaking up some culture at a museum; most offer a discount day or free admission. Every little bit counts. NC

BOXING IT ALL UP without the headaches By Dan Hopkins

t’s no big secret moving can be stressful – from broken dishes to lost items. But there are a few things you can do to make the whole process a little easier on the nerves.

Start by planning your moving day well in advance. Once you select your moving company, book your reservations two to four weeks before your scheduled move day to guarantee availability. Next, it’s time to roll up those sleeves and begin boxing up your household or office space. Choosing boxes to do this may not be as much of a nobrainer as you’d presume: • Boxes of books get heavy fast so ensure to use only small boxes when it comes to these items. Apply this general rule to everything you’re packing: the heavier the item, the smaller the box. • Emptying the closet can be an organizing nightmare. Use speciﬁc wardrobe boxes to simplify the process. To save space, clothes in drawers can be packed into suitcases. • As tempting as it may be to pick up used cardboard boxes from the grocery store, don’t. You never know what little critter is hiding in the corner of food boxes – or if the box will be strong enough to support your possessions. In fact, don’t use used boxes in general; you don’t know how much weight they can handle or how much weight they’ve already handled.

Assign boxes to specific rooms. Avoid mixing items from different rooms in the same box – it can make for a frustrating unpacking process or a wild goose-chase if you’re looking for kitchen utensils in the living room box. Keep a record of what goes into which box so you can find what you need instantly. When it comes to large appliances, take a peek at the owner’s manuals to see if there are special instructions for moving. Packing breakables requires the upmost care. Always stack dishes upwards and never use newsprint to wrap fine china as it can be messy to clean. Instead, choose protective packing paper or bubble wrap. With these tips and a few deep breaths, you’re well on your way to a smooth-sailing move.

BE CAUTIOUS, BE PREPARED, BE INSURED

by Ted WhiTehead & STephen Kearley

”Be cautious - be Prepared” is good advice for anyone at any stage of life - and it has particular significance when it comes to tenants in rental apartment buildings. Unfortunately, not all renters understand that they may be responsible for what happens in their unit such as someone getting injured, or having to replace their contents due to fire or other devastation. Fewer than half of renters obtain tenants insurance. Often, this is because they are unaware of their responsibilities when it comes to protecting themselves, and their belongings. They assume the Landlord’s insurance covers that, which it does not. The insurance property managers/owners purchase covers the building and their personal liability, but not the tenants. At the Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO), we believe that all apartment renters should carry tenant insurance. Tenant insurance is generally not an onerous cost and can bring tremendous peace of mind, should you ever have to deal financially with unpredictable losses (which often can be substantial). Many rental-housing consumers underestimate what their personal belongings would cost to replace. Clothing, shoes, coats and other personal belongings can cost thousands of dollars to replace.

A good practice for all renters is to write down what it would cost to replace each item in your apartment and then total the cost of those items. Do not forget to add computers, entertainment equipment and other items if you had to replace them because they were ruined by fire or water or some other disaster. When you have completed this exercise, most renters find the total cost to replace everything is surprising and financially burdensome (particularly if they had to do it all at once). It’s important to note that insurance coverage is usually paid on a replacement cost basis, so that kitchen table set you purchased 10 years ago, would be replaced based on what it would cost today. Renters who have tenants insurance can purchase coverage with a liability clause to protect them if someone does get hurt inside their home, or just as important, this liability section can cover such things as your dog biting someone, or property damage and bodily injury for which you may be liable off your premises. Insurance can also cover damage to other units in the building that are

harmed through carelessness by fire or other liability perils. This would be covered under the Tenants Legal Liability coverage. If renters find themselves faced with paying medical costs of someone who is hurt because of their negligence, or paying for building repairs due to something they did, the financial impact can be devastating. Apartment-shoppers looking at buildings that have successfully completed the Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP), can ask the building manager or leasing agent for information on tenant insurance. CRBP was created by FRPO to help ensure a high quality of life for tenants in certified buildings. Visit www.frpo.org and www.crbprogram.org.
