insider adViCe

make the most of your balCony Jane herman Whether your balcony is a sundrenched southern exposure or a secluded shady nook, it’s your own window onto the world below.

Here are some ideas for enjoying your outside space.

Use yoUr imagination

Why not enjoy your morning coffee on the balcony before you go to work? A cold supper picnic outside with friends could add tranquil pleasure to the daily dinner ritual.

Create Comfort

A couple of inexpensive but

comfortable lounge chairs, a small side table and an umbrella are sufficient to get started.

You could add a waterproof rug, throw pillows, attractive containers, hanging baskets, even a bird feeder. an Urban garden

Container-grown flowers, vegetables, and herbs support biodiversity by attracting pollinators such as butterflies and bees, adding to the oxygen in the air. You can successfully grow tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, and other small vegetables in containers on your balcony, along with lettuces and herbs. Make sure you have adequate sun before setting out edible

plants, otherwise, stick to shadeloving flowers. banish ClUtter

Store bicycles in your building’s bike racks in the garage along with your snow tires. Buy a large plastic cupboard to conceal luggage, golf clubs, skis or children’s toys.

Make your balcony your own personal retreat. The potential is yours to discover.

Jane Herman is a communications consultant who has worked in the rental property industry.

Japandi style

home finds

A marriage of simple Japanese aesthetic and modern Scandinavian design, the Japandi style brings together the best of these two design worlds. The look is minimal, functional and inviting. Think neutral colour schemes and non-fussy decor. This style started gaining popularity in 2020, and Pinterest (and its 400 million users) predicts this design trend will be big this year, as well. We couldn’t agree more! Here are some of our favourite items to achieve that Japandi look at home.

don’t let your stuff own you Hellen Buttigieg The closets are full. Do you really need to create more storage space or do you need to pare down your stuff?

Top ExcusEs for holding on To cloThing you don’T wEar 1 It will come back in style. Yes, it

will, but the fabric and cut will be slightly different and everyone will be able to tell you have been holding on to it since 1978!

2 It will fit once I lose weight. You may lose weight in different places and it may still not fit. Reward

yourself by buying new clothes instead of wearing your old things.

3 I paid a lot of money for it. And it makes you feel guilty every time you look into your closet and see it hanging there. Let go of the reminder, and the shame.

4 I wore it on my first date, the day I got promoted, etc. Don’t let sentimental items take up valuable space in your closet.

Take a picture and let it go.

5 Someone bought it for me.

They’ll never know, and even if they find out, they’ll understand.

6 It needs repairs. Put a deadline on it and let it go if you miss it.

7 I need it just in case. This is probably the top excuse I hear.

Unless there is a specific reason to hold on to something, let it go.

ADVICE | RENTAL PRO

10 REASONS RENTING IS BETTER

RENTING VS OWNING ANNE MARSHALL

While many people idealize home ownership and cling to it as a goal, not everyone wants to own their own home.

Especially after retirement, the “perks” of homeownership 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 may be 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 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. 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, highdensity 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 is enough to cover your rent and/or security deposit. 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

28 Renters Guide | Feb. 26–Mar. 12, 2021 | East Kildonan, North Kildonan, Elmwood, Transcona

“

When your shower stops running properly, your landlord is the one who has to call and pay for the plumber.

”

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 homeownership.

Rental units have more compact floorplans, and in the winter, you may even benefit from ambient heat from the building or apartments around you, depending on its layout.

Anne Marshall has lived in New York City, Glasgow (Scotland), Greensboro (NC), Toronto, and somehow ended up back in the fabulous small city of Guelph, where she grew up.

ADVICE | ApArtmEntAlIty

CheCk rEfErEnCEs on a prospeCtive roomIE

kathryn kusyszyn

Employers check references, landlords check references, and if you’re considering someone as a roommate, you should check their references, too. A person can seem charming initially, then later on turn into a nightmare. Do your homework and avoid such situations.

Have a rental application form that’s appropriate for your province. It will cover all the bases.

Discuss how they feel about overnight visitors, smoking, pets, sharing household chores and other mutual responsibilities. Ask why they left their last place and how long they lived there.

The application should ask for references from a current employer, a previous landlord and at least one previous roommate.

By providing contact info, the prospective roommate is giving you permission to contact them.

When calling an employer, state that you are verifying the potential roommate’s employment status and character, not doing an employment check. Ask previous landlords how long the person lived there, whether they paid their rent on time and why they left.

Past roommates can be revealing.

Ask how long they have known the person and how long they lived together. Ask what they liked and disliked about living with them and why they went separate ways.

If someone cannot provide any references or if none of their references are forthcoming, beware.

You will be living with this person in close quarters and relying on them to fulfil their responsibilities. You need to have a reasonable comfort level with them.

Be selective, and with some searching, you will find the right match.

work in style THE RENTERS GUIDE CATCHES UP WITH LIFESTYLE BLOGGER CANDACE ALONGI OF THE MINTED MAMA TO CHAT ABOUT HOW SHE WAS ABLE TO CREATE A SWOON-WORTHY HOME OFFICE

by SARA DUCK photos DARBY MITCHELL PHOTOGRAPHY

What was the inspiration for your office?

Colour, colour and more colour! I wanted this room to be the central creative hub of our home, and nothing sparks creativity like colour. I started with the art and used those tones and shades for all the other decorative elements.

Your favourite element in the space?

The oversized drum pendant from Dainolite is hands-down my favourite element. The office is situated on a split level between the first and second floors, has no windows and the ceilings are more than 15 ft. tall. While we did install pot lights to keep the space bright, we needed something beautiful to fill up the vast space above the upper cabinets, and this white and gold fixture couldn’t be more perfect.

How were you able to keep things looking great but also organized?

While the office includes lots of pretty objects and decorative elements, I made sure that trays, baskets, and files were worked into the design to keep all the office essentials in their proper place. Just because a working home office needs to be functional, doesn’t mean it can’t be cute at the same time.

What was the biggest challenge of the room?

Since I share our home office with my husband, I needed to hold back the reigns a bit to avoid it becoming overly pretty. While I did manage to work plenty of pink into the design – we kept the cabinets grey, installed a navy DIY bookshelf and worked in neutral elements to calm down the girly vibes.

ADVICE | RENTAL TIPS

Helping friends move Jennifer Braun The year’s most popular moving dates are coming up. I want to suggest you actually consider helping a friend move. Why? Because it won’t be as bad as you think, and your fellow renter would really appreciate it.

If a friend asks you to help them move, it does not mean you will be facilitating the entire move. In fact, I really do not suggest relying on friends for a complete move, but rather for a pair of helping hands.

There are many ways you can help with a move, including before the move, during the move and

even after the move. Getting personal belongings organized and neatly packed into boxes is actually half the work.

Moving also involves a lot of cleaning – be it the old place or the new place that still needs to be vacuumed and dusted before bringing in furniture. Then, after all that work, there’s unpacking and getting organized.

So, before you say no to helping with a move, consider asking your friend what they need help with.

Your strength at some point may be needed, but just being there to help pack, clean and organize can also be a big help. All that being said, helping friends move still isn’t the most enjoyable way to spend a Sunday afternoon. That’s why I say

keep your friends close and the friends you help move even closer – they totally owe you – including with your own next big move!

Jennifer Braun is a freelance lifestyle writer from Montreal.

ADVICE | MAKE YOUR MOVE

PREPARE FOR

THE UNEXPECTED CHUCK RESNICK Moving your worldly possessions involves a lot of organization, so it’s smart to expect the unexpected. Some DIY moves go well; others end up stressful because those doing the work don’t anticipate potential glitches.

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 46 Renters Guide | Feb. 26–Mar. 12, 2021

you know how to pack delicate items? What if the truck breaks down or gets into an accident halfway to your new home?

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 prepared as possible when the packing/moving begins.

Of course, there are specialty items that require an unusual level of care – pianos, pool tables, grandfather clocks, artwork, antiques and the like. The money you may save by not hiring a professional mover may end up being spent on repairs if these

large and valuable pieces are not handled correctly. Irreplaceable items may be lost forever.

If you decide to move yourself, give some thought to what might happen along the way and make contingency plans. Be realistic – hiring a professional mover can offer tremendous peace of mind and is money well spent.

transIt and rEntals Mass transit, highway construction and other infrastructure are key considerations when planning a move. This has allowed new communities to literally sprout up.

Numerous studies throughout North America and elsewhere show that proximity to mass transit and highways improves residents’ accessibility to a city’s central business district and other areas with employment opportunities.

The greatest benefit is for properties located within 500 metres of stations along new transit lines says Don Campbell, president of Cutting Edge Research Inc., a Vancouverbased real estate consultancy

that examines national housing trends across the country.

“Distance is now measured in minutes, not kilometres,” he says, summarizing a principle that renters anywhere in Canada can follow: As people increasingly factor commuting times into their renting decisions, proximity to transportation is a top determining factor for convenience.

Prospective renters, then, while out shopping for a new home, should look around to see how close they are to the nearest highway, subway or light rail transit. Then follow the tracks to those housing projects and communities and your new home.
