here’s nothing like your first apartment. It changes you, allows you to grow, and actually teaches you a lot about yourself.

In my second year at university I opted to move out of the comforts of home and try life on my own. The commute was killing me and the freedom and independence seemed quite attractive. It was exciting to book viewings, talk to landlords and sign my first lease.

I found a third-storey walk-up right in the heart of the city. That the building was painted purple may have played a small part in my decision, but ultimately, the ‘junior-one-bedroom’ fit me to a tee. I had an ensuite bathroom, a large eat-in kitchen and a completely enclosed bedroom. The large room doubled as my sitting room when I converted my futon frame into couch mode. And the deck was massive!

The one thing I didn’t know when I took the apartment was that I would hate living alone. I thought that my cat and I would revel in the privacy, but in reality I found myself lonely. I hated that nobody would walk through the door unless I invited them. I hated that there was nobody to chat with over dinner and I really hated that there was nobody to help with bills!

It’s interesting what you learn about yourself those first years on your own. In fact, as life changes your needs can change – and the amazing thing about renting is that it’s easy to change your home to suit your needs. With Renters Guide in hand you’ll find that perfect apartment – even if it’s your first! Our magazine and website YPNextHome.ca, plus our YP NextHome app and our newsletter offer the best selection of available apartments as well as great articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

WELLESLEY PARLIAMENT SQUARE

The city at your doorstep IT’S ALL ABOUT LOCATION SINCE THAT’S THE STARTING POINT in the search for a new apartment. And what could be better than a community that has the entire city at its doorstep!

Wellesley Parliament Square is just such a community. Located in the heart of the city, it’s a prime downtown location.

Located at 240, 260 and 280 Wellesley, the community is just east of Yonge. It has an exceptional list of area amenities and benefits of location. The community is well serviced by transit, with both the Yonge/ University/Spadina line and the Bloor/ Danforth line of the subway making it easy to get around the city., as well as extensive bus routes. Easy access to major highways like the Don Valley Parkway and The Gardiner Expressway add to the accessibility.

The area is near the bustling Yonge Street Strip that Toronto is famous for. It also enjoys proximity to Cabbbagetown, a lovely and gentrified area offering great shops and independent stores, restaurants and markets, as well as The Danforth, famously referred to as Greektown, and more.

The community has numerous familyfriendly amenities, from schools and daycare to parks, swimming and sports facilities. The Riverdale Zoo and park are a favourite destination, whether it’s to visit the animals in the summer or toboggan down the hills in the winter. Allen Gardens is another area destination, where the greenhouse features exotic plants and flowers, while the park’s grounds allow city dwellers an escape to lovely and lush natural surroundings.

The area truly offers everything, perfect for those who love city living. While some ypnexthome.ca downtown areas are underserviced by the basics like grocery stores and pharmacies in favour of boutiques and bars, this area has the ideal mix, from groceries to dining options, nightlife, hospitals, libraries, ypnexthome.ca community centres and academic options.

10

Ideal for students, the location offers easy access to all of the downtown campuses, from George Brown and The Academy of Design to OCAD, Ryerson and U of T. GS Group of Companies has focussed a lot of their attention on this community, from onsite improvements to numerous resident support programs. GS is known for offering well-run and well-maintained buildings that really encourage a sense of community and pride of home. At Wellesley Parliament Square GS has introduced programs such as the Resident Action Line, Tenant Satisfaction Program and Rental Retention Program. These initiatives, among others, have had a very positive effect on tenant satisfaction.

As for the lifestyle GS offers her, well-kept grounds feature great spaces to enjoy, while the building has nicely finished suites to call home. Suites offer balconies and decks which provide great views of the city. Hardwood flooring, ample storage in the kitchen and great bachelor, one-, two and three-bedroom layouts make finding the perfect home at Wellesley Parliament Square very easy!

This exceptionally well-located building offers 24-hour security and controlled building access for peace of mind. The onsite management are attentive and well-trained and always available to help. ypnexthome.ca For more information on this incredible community or to book an appointment, you can contact a rental associate at Wellesley Parliament Square, email Wellesley@ wpsq.ca.

CABBAGETOWN

A celebration of arts, culture and urban living

BY KARA KURYLLOWICZ

GRITTY, URBAN, ELEGANT, HARD-SCRABBLE, UPSCALE, SOPHISTICATED AND WORKING-CLASS. Today’s Cabbagetown is all of that and then some nestled into the heart of downtown Toronto where it is sandwiched between Gerrard St. East and Wellesley to the south/north and Sherbourne/Parliament to the Don Valley Parkway on the east/west.

ypnexthome.ca 12

ypnexthome.ca

Cabbagetown is for those who embrace city living and its inherent advantages such as the extraordinary range of cultural and gastronomic opportunities just steps from home. If you want to explore a little beyond Cabbagetown’s own borders, the rest of the downtown core is within easy reach.

WANT TO LIVE IN THE AREA?

The Cabbagetown ‘hood celebrates a pocket where culture and the arts live, breathe and literally dance at the renown Toronto Dance Theatre and Canadian Contemporary Dance Theatre.

Check out these listings:

It’s a small town in the heart of a big city. Funky, artsy, Victorian prim and proper with a dose of real urban grit. You can make your life in Cabbagetown whatever you want it to be. It’s perfect for a strolling ramble with lots of lingering stops in parks, coffee shops, boutiques and galleries. There are unique shopping opportunities, from vintage finds to the boutique to tickle the ‘Britophile’s fancy. Some shops have been there for decades, run by several generations of the same family, while others are new and modern, changing with the gentrifying community. Bargain to upscale, independent to big chain retailer – you’ll find it all here.

Cabbagetown is home to small households. There are far more singles than couples and more couples than families. More people live in apartment buildings, than row houses, semis and finally single detached homes. Depending on your perspective and the choices you make, Cabbagetown is anywhere from highly affordable to suitable only for the affluent.

The area offers its residents great convenience and access. It’s just minutes to TTC subway lines and bus routes, as well as the Don Valley Parkway, the Gardiner Expressway and Union Station. Frequent flyers will find it a short trip to Billy Bishop Airport.

The family friendly neighbourhood has many great amenities. Winchester Junior and Senior Public School, Rose Avenue Junior Public School, Sprucecourt Junior Public School, Lord Dufferin Junior and Senior Public School, Riverdale Park, Riverdale Farm, Allan Gardens, the Farmer’s Market, Cabbagetown Community Arts Centre and the Cabbagetown Youth Centre.

If you like an intimate, urban neighbourhood that’s literally miles from the suburban ypnexthome.ca sprawl in every imaginable way and you’re happy exploring your own neighbourhood, Cabbagetown really is perfect. It’s a fun community, and though it’s grown into an urban stronghold, it definitely provides a strong community feel.

Just starting out?

RENTING IS YOUR BEST CHOICE

BY JANE HERMAN

IT’S A TIME OF LIFE WHERE PEOPLE START THINKING ABOUT BUYING A HOME, but if you’re a young single, a freshlyat-work professional, or a recently married couple, and you’re wondering what to do, there are many good reasons why you should choose to rent instead of buying your first residence.

At this stage of your life, you may be finishing up your education, paying off student loans, or just beginning your first job(s). It’s not likely that you will have even accumulated enough cash to use as a down payment. One of the many advantages renting has over home ownership, is that there is no large down payment to be paid up front. You only have to come up with your first and last month’s rent.

And despite the message of real estate marketers who try to convince you that you can own a condominium or home for the same price as renting, here’s the truth: renting is always substantially less than owning. While it is possible that monthly mortgage payments might be comparable to what you’d pay to rent, as an owner you will also have to pay property taxes, all maintenance expenses (either monthly maintenance payments in a condo, or all costs of repairs and maintenance from appliance repairs, to landscaping, snow shoveling, etc. in a house). Many apartments include utilities or hydro in the rent, and when owning you would also have to pay an additional amount for these services. What about insurance? Tenants’ insurance is always less expensive than the cost of insuring your own home.

At this stage of your life, flexibility is most important because you are very likely to move again within the next three to five years, either to take another job, go back to school, or because your family is growing and your needs are changing. It’s much easier to make a move when your only obligation is a one-year lease. The hassle and expense of having to sell your home would unnecessarily complicate any career move. ypnexthome.ca Some bankers and real estate professionals will try to convince you that with renting you’re not building equity. But when you factor in all the hidden costs of buying and selling real estate, from commissions, to legal fees to land transfer taxes, etc. , the reality is that no condo or house is going to ypnexthome.ca appreciate that much in the short term to offset those hidden 24

costs. If you are lucky enough to actually have enough cash accumulated to use as a down payment on a house, keep it in a secure two or three year term investment with a good return. When you run the numbers you will be much further ahead three years down the road than if you had invested it in a condo.

The other good reason for renting at this stage of your life is that renting can offer all of the benefits of living in a prime neighbourhood – one that you likely couldn’t afford to buy in – such as convenience to transportation, shopping, recreation facilities, etc., along with condo-quality amenities such as fitness facilities, concierge, indoor/outdoor pools, etc. decorating upgrades, spectacular kitchens and bathrooms, etc. at a price that won’t leave you cash-strapped. With renting, you’ll be able to save a little every month, for emergencies, travel, retirement, or have a little more disposable income for furniture, a car, clothing, and entertainment, which is also important to you.

When you consider all the advantages that renting affords, you’ll see that your dream home is really an apartment!

Countryside to city or city to countryside?

MAKING THE CASE FOR A BIG MOVE

BY CA ITLI N BE ST

IT CAN BE THE ANSWER YOU’VE BEEN DREAMING OF – or it can cause culture shock beyond your wildest dreams. Making a move from the countryside to the city – or the city to the countryside – definitely brings a drastic change of lifestyle.

MAKING A CASE FOR THE CITY: Thinking about pulling up roots and moving to the city? It’s true that you’ll miss certain charms that come with rural life but there are some great perks with urban living.

TAKE-OUT: Sometimes there’s just nothing better than having dinner-to-go at your fingertips. With just one phone call you can have pepperoni pizza, sushi and spring rolls delivered to your door.

THE LEISURE ELEMENT: Skip those farmyard chores and ypnexthome.ca opt for yoga or a cross fit session. Take advantage of the pools, parks and fitness facilities that are just a short walk or drive away.

EASY SHOPPING: Imagine this: A trip to the grocery store, box store, boutique and the mall is no longer a big deal. What

CULTURE AND NIGHT LIFE: In the country you’ll be hardpressed to find a theatre or cocktail bar in the vicinity. However, in the city you have access to a variety of amenities to stay entertained.

PUBLIC TRANSIT: Hello city transportation. Commutes are never glamorous, but getting from point A to B via the bus or train is so much easier than a long commute into town. Even if you drive, you can feel at ease knowing that someone else is responsible for clearing the roads in the winter months.

THE NET: This sounds incredibly simple but getting reliable ypnexthome.ca Internet is sometimes hard to secure in more remote areas.

Once you have high-speed access to surf, post and play on your computer and mobile, there’s no going back.

MAKING A CASE FOR THE COUNTRY: According to the Canned Heat song “Going Up The Country” – the country is where the water tastes like wine. This might not be 100 per cent factual, but there are definitely a few a perks of leaving the bright lights of the city behind.

THE GREAT WIDE OPEN: For city dwellers, space comes at a premium. Living in desirable neighbourhoods is often equated to higher rent, not to mention minimal square footage. People looking to upsize their accommodation without changing their budget will greatly benefit from this move.

FRESH VEGGIES: In 2015, having your own garden is not only practical; it’s also incredibly trendy. This is your chance to convert your windowsill ornamental garden into a full-fledged vegetable patch with everything you’ve ever wanted to plant.

Your city friends will think you’re so hip.

TICKETS: One thing is sure: You’ll never get a parking ticket living in the country. Hallelujah.

ypnexthome.ca

FURRY FRIENDS: Your building’s ‘no pet’ policy or your general feeling of guilt over having a lack of backyard will no longer be a concern. If you’ve been waiting to adopt a furry companion into your life, there’s no better time.

ypnexthome.ca

BIG QUIET: People who can’t stand the sound of car alarms and pedestrian white noise will find their inner calm in the country. While this isn’t for everyone, people who value quiet and privacy will feel right at home.

TWO WHEELS: Cycling in the city often means contending with two lanes of traffic and other cyclists in the bike lines, which can make a cruise feel rather stressful at times. On the open country roads, the lane is yours – minus the odd tractor or pick-up truck.

Five warning signs YOU HAVE A BAD ROOMMATE

BY JEN N IFER BR AU N

ypnexthome.ca 50

ypnexthome.ca

WE DON’T ALL GET THE CHANCE TO MOVE IN WITH OUR CHILDHOOD BEST FRIENDS – and sometimes that’s for the best.

But that also means you’re stuck fending for yourself when having a roommate is your only option. You may get acquainted with a mutual friend, answer an ad, or take a leap of faith and move in with your latest fling.

Sometimes things work out. Other times you get trapped in a living situation that’s a bit more “interesting” then you bargained for. It won’t take long for you to notice you’ve picked a bad apple, but just in case it’s not too late, here are five warning signs you picked a bad roommate: THEY HAVE NO BOUNDARIES Is your roommate a little too comfortable? Like they walk around in their boxers, they have no shame when it comes time to pass gas and they gladly leave their dirty dishes on the counter for you to wash later. Everyone is allowed to be comfortable in their own home, but when you have a

THEY HAVE NO SCHEDULE If your roommate has an odd schedule (i.e no schedule), there may be a reason to worry. You see, roommates that never leave the rental, or come and go at odd hours tend to be a nuisance.

If it doesn’t disturb you, it’s fine, but if they’re waking you by coming home in the middle of the night and flipping on the TV, or you never seem to see them leave the couch - and can never just crash there by yourself for a minute, it’s not good.

You have things to do and some kind of stability at home helps when it’s time to get stuff done. If your roommate is having a hard time describing their day, run for cover.

THEY THINK YOU’RE A FOOL Like I mentioned, it’s not cool to be too anal, but there’s also something uncomfortable about a roommate who is too lax and apologetic. Like a bad boyfriend who always promises to do right next time (he won’t), neither will your roommate. Stop a liar dead in their tracks and don’t let anyone take you for a fool. No, you will not take care of the groceries for a third time in a row because your roommate forgot, again.“Sorry” isn’t enough when it comes to bad roommate behaviour.

THEY’RE JUST INCONSIDERATE Is your roommate seriously blasting terrible music at 1am?

Are they yet to prove they are capable of changing the toilet paper roll? Are you convinced they just don’t know where the vacuum cleaner is? No, your roommate isn’t an idiot (ok, maybe they are), they’re just inconsiderate. If your roommate has yet to contribute anything of value – tangible or intangible – to your living situation, chances are you should start looking for a new one.

won’t mind if you finish the ice cream. Choose your battles.

However, if your roommate is wearing your clothes without asking and denying having ever laid a finger on the box of Captain Crunch (it wasn’t the cat), you have a bad roommate.

RENTAL SCAMS How do they work?

BY ELISA K ROV BLIT

RENTAL SCAMS ARE AN ONGOING PROBLEM. Many rely on victimizing people at a disadvantage - new Canadians not familiar with rental rules and laws, first-time renters and generally those people who are trusting and/or unfamiliar with how scams are perpetrated. But rental scams are becoming more sophisticated, don’t think it can’t happen to you.

How are rental scams perpetrated? Knowing the different types of rental scams – and the warning signs – can help you steer clear of falling victim.

1. YOU CAN’T SEE THE APARTMENT: This one is easy to spot, but it can be hard to manage if you are trying to secure an apartment in a location you are not yet in, but will be moving to shortly. It seems like a hassle to move to a new city and spend one to two months in temporary accommodations while trying to find an apartment, but demanding money for a place, sight unseen, is a very common scam. How do you know the apartment you viewed online is real - or even available? Are those actual pictures or are they pictures the scammer took of another apartment or stock photography? If out of town, find someone in town to visit for you.

You can do a search of the address to see if there are any listings on it. You might even try a reverse phone look-up on a directory website. ypnexthome.ca Just type in the address and call the number of the resident that’s there. They’d be the current tenant. They can tell you if the person you’re dealing with is legit or not, and if they’re actually vacating for the date you’ve been given for ypnexthome.ca moving in.

64

And if you’re in the same city and a landlord makes excuses why they absolutely cannot show you the apartment – run! That’s one of the biggest red flags of all. Even if renovating, they should have access.

2. CASH OR WIRE TRANSFER: You’ve never met the person but they like you and are willing to rent you an apartment on the spot. They ask for cash or a wire transfer. That’s very suspicious. Without going through a bank there is no paper trail. Once the money is in their hands there is no way to follow it - and with cash, there’s no way to even prove you handed it over. Don’t think a receipt will help, especially hand written. E-transfers, cheques and credit cards all leave a trail. Scammers don’t want a trail because they want to disappear with your money. Don’t give them the ability!

3. INFORMALITY: While there are still landlords and property managers that “Dig your vibe and have a gut feeling about you,” most landlords and property managers want a little more certainty about you as a tenant. They want a lease, some contact info, a rental application, references and a credit check. With such a low vacancy rate at the moment, any landlord eager to get to your wallet without the business formalities is truly a big red flag.

4. TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE: Scammers often prey on people’s wants and needs. If something is too good to be true, it probably is. You should be aware of the price range and going rates for the areas you’re searching. If you find something that is well below market value, ask yourself why. What other possible reason could someone have for giving you - a complete stranger - a break in market rent? Too nice, too big, too new for what the price is?

Question it. This is the biggest warning sign in avoiding a scam.

5. THE CON: You go over to the apartment for rent and there is someone waiting there, as promised, to show your around. They seem nice, the place is reasonable and you want it. The person has you fill out forms and asks you for a deposit. In this con, the current tenant, who may be posing as a landlord, is the scammer, taking deposits from everyone that comes to see the apartment. They’re likely behind on rent and planning to take off. They may even provide you keys or offer to sell you furnishings.

Scammers know how to make people trust them. They aren’t making this up as they go - they’ve planned for this. They often make up identities, create their own email, Facebook page, LinkedIn profile, even print business cards.

Con artists and scammers know how to prey on people by working their emotions. Don’t trust someone because they are nice. Don’t think someone is going to do you a favour “because they like you.” Don’t give in to pressure tactics - they will often push for a quick decision because they’ve got lots of interested people for this great deal if you don’t take it. If there is so much interest, then they don’t need to pressure you.

When in doubt, keep your money in your wallet. Make calls to the property management company to confirm the location and price of a vacancy. Use the corporate website number, not the number in the ad when confirming. ypnexthome.ca Visit the property. Leave a paper trail. Ask to see ID. If you do experience a rental scam, make sure you involve the police as quickly as you can. The more vigilance there is, the harder it will be for scammers to find their next victim.

Technology takes the guesswork out of moving estimates

BY CHUCK RESNICK

ONE OF THE THINGS PEOPLE FIND FRUSTRATING about moving is not having an accurate estimate for the cost of the move.

Too often, a mover will go to a home, and after walking through the rooms and asking a few questions, will write out an estimate for the move for the customer.“A thousand bucks,”they’ll say. How does the mover know it will only be a thousand dollars? They will answer that they have done enough moves they just “know” that “a thousand bucks” will cover the move.

The problems come when the job is larger than the mover thought it would be and they don’t schedule enough staff or trucks for the move; or they forgot to note that some furniture needs to be taken to another location, adding time and extra kilometres to the job. Suddenly, the cost of the move goes up, well past that original “thousand bucks,” as does the anxiety and stress level of the customer who is looking for a smooth relocation to a new home.

The Canadian Association of Movers (CAM mover.net) recommends that anyone thinking of moving needs to insist on being provided with an accurate estimate, one that is not just a best guess. They recommend that any estimate should clearly show how the moving costs are calculated, including the number of boxes to be moved, weight and distance and cost per hour, as well as how extra charges will be calculated if items are added at the time of the move (more than was originally agreed upon), and the cost of any additional stops that need to be made along the way.

With today’s technology there is a better way to give people a more accurate estimate ypnexthome.ca for the cost of their move and for movers to schedule the right number of people and trucks needed on the day of the move. This would take the guesswork out of moving estimates and dramatically reduce the stress ypnexthome.ca involved in moving to a new home.

76

Why not ask if your mover is using today’s convenient tablet cloud-based technologies utilizing touch-screen-enabled laptops that connect to the Internet to create an accurate estimate for the cost of the move?

Such technologies will allow a mover to go through a home and accurately check off all the items in every room that needs to be move, such as tables, chairs, dressers, beds and other furniture, as well as how many boxes the family will need moved. As the mover does so, the system automatically calculates the weight and volume of the items and schedules the right number of trucks needed for the move, as well as the right number of movers to get the job done. There is no guesswork and every cost is clearly outlined to the customer.

At Two Men and a Truck - Canada, we have long been using cloud based Internet technologies taking the guesswork out of moving estimates for our customers.

Our movers use Internet-ready tablets and laptops to make accurate estimates for customers and print the estimate right at the customer’s home or business for easy review. Our system calculates how many movers are needed for the job, travel time, weight, volume in cubic feet to secure the right number or trucks and have them ready on the day of the move. There are no unexpected surprises and the stress of a move is greatly reduced.

Moving is stressful enough. So, why not use a mover who leverages today’s technology to melt some of that stress away?

Chuck Resnick is vice president Marketing and Operations for Two Men And a Truck - Canada, a division of Heron Capital Corporation.
