here seems to be a lot of confusion regarding leases – basically whether they’re necessary and what can be included in them. And with good reason. There are a lot of rules that govern the rental industry. The fact is, a lease is not legally required, but it is legally binding. Without one, a tenant and a landlord are still legally bound by the law. However, a lease is a good idea because it identifies and outlines the contract between the tenant and landlord and generally sets out a minimum tenancy length – generally 12 months. A landlord can include in the lease the terms, including price and list what expectations, amenities and utilities are included. Without a lease, there can be miscommunication. A lease cannot include anything that contravenes the law. Items such as ‘no kids’ won’t be enforced. However items like garbage procedures and the requirement for insurance are often clauses that are included. When you come to the end of your lease term, by law you keep the same terms, you just go from month to month (or week to week). You’re not obligated to sign a new lease, though some landlords like having the annual commitment and will ask – possibly offering some benefit in exchange. Looking to sign on the dotted line? With Renters Guide in hand you’ll find that perfect place. Our magazine and website, TheRentersGuide.ca, offer the best selection of available apartments, informative articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

Find the right

neighbourhood By Jane Herman

hoosing the right neighbourhood or location is as important as the apartment you live in. Your community or neighbourhood impacts significantly on your lifestyle by virtue of its proximity to work, school, transportation, shopping and recreation, along with family and friends. Living in a dynamic urban setting that’s dominated by business, within walking distance of transit, community centre, great restaurants, shops and entertainment offers the opportunity for a different lifestyle than a quiet suburban setting where you might have more need for a car to get around, and find a high concentration of families and retirees. Before you begin to search for an apartment, it’s a good idea to establish what kind of neighbourhood you would best enjoy living in and what kind of lifestyle best suits your needs. Start with a good map of the general area – either printed or virtual– and make a list of potential neighbourhoods in which you could consider searching. You may want to be near the nightlife. You may want to be near the financial centre. You may want to choose an area based on specific places of worship or cultural offerings. If you have friends, relatives or co-workers who live in a particular area ask them what they like about the area they are living in; this will TheRentersGuide.ca help you decide if it’s right for you. If you are moving to begin a new job, your employer may be able to collect information on your behalf. Prime TheRentersGuide.ca locations, especially those near public

transit or major highways often cost more but offer many advantages, such as reduced commuting time. Use the Internet to research potential neighbourhoods. Many real estate professionals have online neighbourhood directories that will give you some background about the special character and features of a neighbourhood you might want to consider. Prepare a list of locations that best match your personal needs and then add secondary locations that you would also consider. When evaluating a prospective neighbourhood the most important factors to consider are: • Safety. How safe is the neighbourhood? • Access to public transportation and major highways • Distance to work or school and travel time either by car or public transportation • If you have children, where would they attend school? Take some time to carefully research the schools in the neighbourhood. What parks areas are nearby? • If you require day care, what facilities are available? • How is the traffic in the area? • How are the grocery shopping and other necessary services such as banks, post office, dry cleaners, pharmacy, cinema and restaurants? • What kind of recreation

facilities are available in the neighbourhood? Where is the nearest branch of the public library and community centre, if these are important to you? • How do the noise levels vary at different times of the day and would this be a factor? • If you are a walker or if you have a dog, is the neighbourhood accessible to scenic walking trails, off-leash areas or greenspace? • If you have health issues and need to be close to a medical clinic or hospital, is the facility close by? • What is the general ambience of the area? Is the apartment in a primarily residential or commercial district? • If you need to be close to an older parent or relative, this may also impact on your decision. If you are looking to relocate to another city or province due to work or school, the Internet (Ed’s note: therentersguide. ca is a great source) offers many sites that provide listings of apartments as well as information about the general rental climate in any given area. Depending on the site you may be able to search by province, region or major cities. Some specialized rental sites may include photographs, descriptions, links to floor plans and even virtual tours. TheRentersGuide.ca Narrowing your search down to two or three neighbourhoods at the beginning will help simplify the process.

Renting a Home?

CMHC Offers a Range of Tips and Resources

hether you are a first-time renter or a long-time tenant, there are many important decisions to make when evaluating potential rental accommodations. To help make these decisions easier, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) offers a number of resources, including worksheets and helpful hints, to help you make responsible and informed rental decisions. Starting with tips for getting started and identifying rental needs, to evaluating rental options and meeting a landlord, to signing rental agreements and paying rental deposits, CMHC’s resources support renters throughout all stages of the rental process. CMHC also offers resources designed specifically for recent immigrants to Canada in eight different languages. Renting in Canada: What Newcomers Need to Know includes a variety of relevant and appropriate tools, products and resources to make finding safe and affordable housing easier. Taking the time to plan and determine what you need and how much you can afford will make the overall rental experience less stressful and the outcome more satisfying. In the planning stage, it is important to identify things like the number of bedrooms and location requirements, establish a budget and evaluate an apartment’s affordability. The tenant-landlord relationship is one of shared responsibility and CMHC’s resources provide guidance on the responsibilities of both. They also offer advice on dealing with issues such as regular and emergency repairs, rent increases and payment difficulties.

TheRentersGuide.ca Because the law governing landlords and tenants in Canada varies among the different provinces and territories, CMHC also offers Provincial and Territorial Fact Sheets that include province-specific information.

Finally, moving can be a hectic time with a varied checklist of tasks. Once you have chosen a place to live, CMHC’s tools for renters provide helpful tips on selecting reputable movers as well as reminders to transfer or close your service accounts at your existing residence and arrange for services at your new home. For more than 65 years, CMHC has shared a wealth of knowledge and housing expertise, as well as useful tools and guidance, to help Canadians enjoy an informed and assured housing experience.

10 top design tips for renters By Lucie Grys

ou don’t need to blow the bank to make your rented apartment or house feel like home. With these 10 quick and affordable, landlord-approved design tips, you’ll be living la dolce vita in no time.

.CHOOSE A THEME When it comes to designing your space, it’s easier if you chose a theme as a starting point. If you love hiking in the outdoors, pick colours like greens, blues and earth tones that reflect the trees, sky and rocks. If you love to go dancing on a Saturday night, try vibrant reds, glittery metallics and sultry blacks. If you’ve got the travel bug, try hot pinks, aquamarines and saffron yellows.

Or, if you want your space to be a respite from your busy life, chose off whites, pale blues and natural colours to relax you. Once you’ve picked a theme, you’ll find it’s a lot easier to focus on creating your perfect space. Marta Nicholson of Moda Interior Design in Winnipeg, Manitoba notes, “we need to remember that in today’s time with busy schedules, the place that we call home

needs to be a stress-free environment that we find beautiful, calming and truly a retreat to rejuvenate for the next day. Visual balance is one of the most important key elements in design – balance of colour, balance and moderation in accessories, balance of textures. If this is successful in a space – whether large or small – then the outcome of the design produces comfort and pleasure.”

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

START WITH A CLEAN SLATE If you ask your landlord’s permission and show them the colours ahead of time, most will allow you to paint your walls. Often, they will ask you to paint them back to a neutral tone before you leave, but that seems to be a small price to pay for living with the colours that you want. If painting the walls isn’t an option, visit a fabric store and frame your favourite prints and patterns to bring some life to your walls. “If a renter is planning to be in a lease for a long period of time, then it is important to love the place that you call home. Make your home beautiful. Hire an interior designer who will come in and assist you in making your space special,” says Nicholson. If you can’t paint, she advises clients to use, “a cushion or throw or a new bedspread in the bedroom to achieve colour. Also, nothing can beat fresh flowers in a space to add colour, texture and interest.”

THE PARTY IS IN THE KITCHEN Everyone knows that the real party always ends up in the kitchen. But if you’ve inherited ugly cupboards and a leaky faucet, you might just choose the keep the lights off. If you are a neat freak and don’t mind your plates and cups being exposed, unscrew your cabinet doors and go for the open shelving look. Prop your dishware so it looks like a magazine stylist did it, and hide your cupboard doors under your bed for when you decide to move and have to put them back up. Another quick fix that can update any dated kitchen is to splurge on a great looking faucet. For about $100, you can modernize your kitchen, and paired with some bold tea towels, a vase of fresh flowers and a bowl of apples, lemons or limes, you’ll create a real designer look for less.

WINDOW DRESSING Window treatments can be very expensive, but it’s easier than you think to create a great look, and can be done on a TheRentersGuide.ca budget. If you’ve moved into a space where the blinds are older than you are, take

TheRentersGuide.ca

them down and stash them in your storage locker. A simple rod with some prefab curtain panels is a cheap fix to frame out your windows. Hit your local big box store for some bamboo blinds and add some texture while you shut out the morning light. Or, find a deal and buy metres and metres of a good-looking, neutral fabric and drape the material over a rod for a no-sew solution.

a storage space for your bike, treat the space like an outdoor room. Throwing down an outdoor rug to frame out a conversation nook, placing a bistro table with a few folding chairs and picking up some pre-planted flowers or ferns can create a lot of visual interest. Keep the theme and colours consistent with your interior and make the time to enjoy your outdoor oasis and dine al fresco.

BATHROOM BLUES It’s amazing what a new shower curtain, a good scrubbing and a basket of fresh towels can do to bring the spa home to your own bathroom. No need to fret over ugly shower tiles, simple keep your shower curtain drawn over the bathtub and only you will know what ‘70s-inspired tiles lurk behind. Pick up an stylish mirror to hang over the sink and prop you bathroom with clear containers of cotton swabs, cotton balls and other lotions and potions. Depending on the effect you want to create, you can add some life to a bathroom by replacing a low wattage bulb with a higher one – or pick up a small lamp for the counter to create a romantic ambient mood.

SAVE OR SPLURGE? The key to creating your dream space is to know when to splash out the big bucks and when to hit the local garage sales. Nicholson says, “If an individual is renting a space for a short time, then I would suggest that they should invest in items that they can take with them. If a client purchases small items that they find beautiful to brighten up their space, then they will most likely find that same item beautiful for their second living arrangement. Items such as paintings and artwork, sculptural elements, vases, the list goes on. However one needs to avoid clutter, – clutter being to me one of the greatest eyesores.”

CREATE A HOME OFFICE If working on your laptop in front of the TV is taking its toll on your back, pick a corner or a small closet and make a home office. Wireless printers can be stored in a wardrobe or behind a cupboard, install a few floating shelves for supplies in neat boxes and pick up a stool that can be easily tucked away. The trick is to keep the space clutter-free and well-organized.

STORE IT WISELY With space at a premium, being clever with storage ideas will help to free up living space. Invest in an upholstered storage bench than can serve as a coffee table and can also divide a living room from a dining nook. Pick up a wardrobe to hide away your TV, stereo, DVD and extra linens and towels. Use closet space wisely and pick up some stacking shelves for seasonal items like winter boots and bulky sweaters.

KEEP IT CLEAN Enjoy that new place feeling for as long as you can, take the time to unpack all of your boxes and put your treasures away. Living out of cardboard boxes isn’t fun. Sweep up and vacuum on Sunday nights, dust off your TV and tables, recycle junk mail so it doesn’t pile up on kitchen counters and be proud of your home. Invite your friends and family over to share your space and even if you don’t own your home yet, live as if you do.

INCREASE YOUR LIVING SPACE When patio weather hits, and if you are lucky enough to have some outdoor space, use it wisely. Instead of your balcony being

Making apartment buildings healthier,

ONE STEP AT A TIME B y Te d Whi T ehead

s Ontario’s leading advocate for quality rental housing, the Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO) is continually looking for ways to improve the quality of life of apartment dwellers and staff in the province.

The organization created the Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP) to help apartment-seekers locate professionally operated and maintained buildings. Landlords and apartment managers whose buildings are enrolled and qualify agree to maintain stringent standards. Tenants also have responsibilities in keeping their quality of life healthy and vibrant. The push for environmental friendliness and healthier living has a place in the today’s rental residences and can be achieved in many ways with the help of renters. Obeying the Smoke-Free Ontario Act of 2005 is one example. Under this Act, smoking is not allowed in the common areas of apartment buildings such as elevators, hallways, stairwells, parking garages, laundry rooms, lobbies and amenity spaces. Smoking in individual apartments is not TheRentersGuide.ca regulated, but some renters today are choosing to smoke only outdoors on their balconies or outside the building. “Respecting the rights of everyone,

TheRentersGuide.ca smokers and non smokers alike,

leads to a healthier, safer and more harmonious living environment for all,” says Mike Chopowick, director of Policy Matters, Federation of Rentalhousing Providers of Ontario. Most people understand that outdoor air quality is affected by things such as smog and the exhaust from vehicles, but may not realize that indoor air can actually be a lot worse. This is because residents live in proximity to commonly used products that may be toxic and pollute the air that they breathe. To avoid this scenario, tenants can do simple things such as switch to unscented cleaning products, and if they paint their walls, they can use low-VOC paints. As time passes, we see new materials and techniques on the market that contribute to Greener, healthier, more sustainable living. Looking to the exterior, some buildings now have Green roofs with plant material that absorbs water and is easier on the city’s storm system. Low-growing succulents are one example of plant life that helps. On some of these roofs, rainwater is collected to use for irrigating the landscaping. Plants and trees have a great impact on the environment in filtering toxins. There may be spots around apartment buildings where well-placed trees

can even provide shade and reduce cooling costs in the summer months, and switching to non-toxic pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers for the building’s landscaping is to everyone’s benefit. FRPO and the Greater Toronto Apartment Association (GTAA) have been assisting the Centre for Equality Rights in Accommodation (CERA) to develop voluntary guidelines and associated educational resources to promote healthier apartment buildings. As these guidelines are developed, they will be added to the Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP) that provides apartment-seekers with a tool to help find professionally operated and maintained buildings. Based in Toronto, the GTAA represents the interests of active and concerned firms participating in the multi-family rental housing industry. Visit crbprogram.org and frpo.org
