Life events get you moving When it comes to rental accommodations, it’s important to be as diligent as possible to make sure you have a good experience from start to finish. If possible, speak to current tenants and ask about their experience. Ask to view the actual suite for rent so you can check out the view and get a sense of exactly what you’re getting beforehand so there are no surprises. While you’re renting, know your rights. Tenants are not responsible for normal wear and tear on the premises

during the tenancy. The landlord is responsible for general upkeep, including wear and tear. You should do an inspection and note any deficiencies or damage at the outset – and share with the landlord. Record video or take pictures for confirmation. Get this inspection worksheet signed by the landlord. This is an important document upon moving out. You don’t want to be held liable for any pre-existing damage. A little diligence now ensures peace of mind for later.

YPNEXTHOME.CA

There are extensive rules in place to define renter rights and responsibilities. These guide the actions of both landlords and tenants. Beyond the law books, there’s common sense. As all too often happens, there are unique circumstances and unexpected situations that can’t be goverened by the letter of the law. It takes some consideration, some objectivity and some compromise to navigate between landlord and tenant. Most of the time you won’t even

be in touch with the landlord, and the landlord won’t be disturbing you, but if you have to be in touch, always approach the situation in a mature manner and treat each other as real live people on the same team with the goal of making your rental life the best that it can be. We’ve got some great insight and a wide variety of listings in this issue, plus more on ypnexthome.ca, where you can find more great information on rental living and get ready to make your move.

A LARGE PART OF NORTH YORK,

Willowdale is an affluent community centred around Yonge St. from Steeles Ave. down to the 401, and from Bayview to Senlac Rd. It has gained in popularity as its amenities continue to grow and new condo development changes its landscape. It’s prized for being located on the subway lines, and offers easy access to all parts of the city. Willowdale hosts great events throughout the year like Fall Fair, Earth Day and Trail of Lights. The park will be extended and dedicated to the arts, incorporating art installations and a performance space.

Being a perfect blend of suburban and urban, Willowdale offers the best of both worlds. People often distinguish between eastern and western parts and the vibe varies depending on where you are. Willowdale East is more city-like and has an abundance of restaurants, pubs and cafés in the area. It has a denser population than its western counterpart. Willowdale is currently home to more than 79,000 people. The majority of residents fall within the 25 to 54 age bracket with a skew toward 44 to 54. The area has an extremely diverse population, with two-thirds

of the residents first-generation Canadians. Willowdale gets a huge nod for accessibility. Buses run frequently and connect you to all subway lines, with both the Yonge and the Sheppard lines at the heart of the community. Viva and York Region Transits serve Willowdale. The subway station and GO transit bus terminal are located on Yonge Street and Finch Ave.

How to organize your small space

MORE TRENDING ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/news

By Clare Kumar

ARE YOU FEELING beaten by your small space? Have no fear. These savvy strategies will help you find space you didn’t know you had. MAXIMIZE SPACE INSIDE YOUR CLOSETS

It’s important to make every inch of your valuable storage real estate count. Group like with like and place things in the closet closest to where they will be used. If space is really tight sometimes it’s most efficient to group like shapes together. I chose a slim line laundry hamper from Neatfreak (www.neatfreak.com) to use in my foyer closet to contain awkward items such as a yoga mat, vacuum wand, wrapping paper rolls and my tennis racquet. Very sturdy Neatclips allow me to make use of the space above the hamper by hanging bags or boots from the top bar. I added coordinating bins on upper shelves which stack and provide discrete yet spacious storage for a variety of lightweight items such as off-season hats and mitts, cooler bags and cleaning cloths.

CHOOSE SPACE-SAVING PRODUCTS

In a small space there are often smaller appliances, so saving space in the fridge and freezer becomes even more important. I look for products HOW TO FIT IT ALL IN ONE ROOM that nest and compact, but I hadn’t In one large room that must serve thought about appliances that would as kitchen, dining and living space, it help me do the same until I got to try can be challenging fit it all in. Getting the FoodSaver (www.foodsaver.com) clear on what you need to cook, eat vacuum sealer. While helping you keep and relax comfortably is important your food fresher longer also helps to guide your decisions. Two islands maximize your food storage space by from IKEA (ikea.ca) expanded both the removing air from packages. If you precounter space and storage. A smaller freeze liquid items into uniform shapes footprint desk, also from IKEA, works in a storage container, you can get well as a regular dining space for two. even more out of your storage space. Simply moving the wheeled islands I now have a fully stocked fridge with and using them as a buffet opens up soups, vegetables, meats and fish, all of more elegant dining for four. This which I can see easily. CREATE AN INSPIRING SPACE tight design left ample space for two I’ve always believed that while sofas in the living space, perfect for conversation.

the number one priority is to have furniture, storage spaces and tools that function well, it’s important to incorporate beauty. To achieve this, I visited Homesense (homesense.ca) and was able to find stunning furniture, accessories, carpets and curtains all complementary to my design theme. I scored gorgeous, small scale marble and gold metal coffee tables, an ivory and grey wool rug to soften the space and add warmth, and a curvylined condo-sized wood-edged sofa with a low enough profile to avoid compromising my view. I stacked an LED wax candle (that looks entirely real and has a four hour timer!) in a hurricane glass on top of a shiny gold box, to hide my black PVR. Here fashion hides function!

The different types of neighbours By Jackie Marchildon

YPNEXTHOME.CA

SOME OF THE BEST rental stories come from our neigbours — we love them, we hate them — we love to hate them. I’ve heard stories of neighbours falling in love, people being robbed by their neighbours, and well, neighbours being taken down by a SWAT team. You never know what you’re going to get, but that’s the glory of renting, isn’t it? You’re never stuck in one place for too long if you don’t want to be. Jokes aside, neighbours, quirky or not, can really make your apartment feel like home. They become part of your routine and it’s fun to get to know the different types of neighbours out there. THE UPSTAIRS NEIGHBOUR This one likely hits home with many people. I had never really encountered this until I moved into my current building, and even then, the true ‘upstairs neighbour’ didn’t really surface until we’d lived here for almost two years. Our new neighbour upstairs began to make noise. A lot of noise. Noise that made no sense. Did she weigh 600 pounds? Was she always in high heels? Did she have a ball and chain attached to her leg that she was forced to drag across the room whenever she walked around? It didn’t (and still doesn’t) make sense! What are the noises she’s making and how are they so loud? Does she ever sleep? How are these noises so consistently loud throughout the day? I know she lives alone. I’ve seen her, she’s a small woman — she couldn’t possibly be making these noises on her own! Could she? And that, is the mystery of the upstairs neighbour. THE CREATIVE NEIGHBOUR Have you ever gone into someone else’s unit, looked around and thought, “How do we live in the same space?” Their apartment just looks so much cooler than yours. Don’t

feel bad, it happens. There’s always an artsy person or couple that can manage to turn their space into an artist’s haven. Don’t worry, your place is still nice. THE NEIGHBOUR THAT COMPLAINS I will admit I’ve had a few neighbours here and there complain about me. A couple of complaints in university were warranted, I’ll give them that, but as I’ve (gracefully) aged, I’ve realized that some neighbours just like to complain. You know the type, the one that hates everything about how you live. Music too loud? Landlord gets a call. Your dog barks once? Landlord gets a call. Your significant other starts spending the night more often? Landlord gets a call. It happens. If you’re a decent neighbour, there’s nothing to worry about – and your landlord knows that. THE PARTY NEIGHBOUR This is your best and worst neighbour, depending on which side of the door you’re on. You’ve probably wandered into one of their parties at some point and had a great time. But when they are swinging from the chandeliers with the music at top volume on a Tuesday night and you need to sleep, it’s a little less fun. Sometimes the party neighbour is also the hot neighbour, and that can be extra fun…or no fun at all. THE PEPPY NEIGHBOUR This is the neighbour that is always trying to organize things for the building. He/she means well so there’s really no need to hate on them, even when you’re sneaking out through your fire escape to avoid the courtyard party out front. He/she is also probably the only reason anything gets done around your building, so don’t be too quick to judge!

Choosing the right landlord

Six tips from an industry insider By Sheryl Erenberg

3. FIRST IMPRESSIONS ARE IMPORTANT

Are you made to feel welcome when you arrive? How hard is the person representing the building trying to assist you? Encourage you to rent? If they are distracted or unpleasant would you want to live there? Trust your instincts. 4. WATCH AND LISTEN TO HOW THE STAFF INTERACT WITH ONE ANOTHER

Do they appear to be working as a team? Listen to the radio chatter if you have the chance. Is the conversation between employees pleasant? Professional? A lot can be learned about the landlord by who they choose to represent them and how they train/motivate their employees. 5. YES, YOU CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE!

THERE ARE A LOT of choices out be too! there. Here are six tips from Marketing 2. FINDING THE PERSON WHO DOES Consultant Sheryl Erenberg, who RENTALS It shouldn’t be an obstacle specializes in rental communities: course or an episode of CSI to get 1. HOW ATTRACTIVE IS THE EXTERIOR from the parking lot to the person OF THE BUILDING? We call this who rents apartments. We call this “curb appeal” in the industry. Are “The Golden Path” to the product. the grounds kept? Are the hedges The “path” should be clean, welltrimmed? Is the grass cut and are lit and have plenty of signs along the flower beds planted? Is the the way. Ideally, a sign above the building sign visible and up to date? enterphone panel should tell you If the property looks neglected, the who to call. chances are good that tenants will

If, while they are with you, the staff come in contact with an existing tenant, listen carefully to their tone of voice, their willingness to assist that customer and watch their body language. Do they know tenants by name when they meet them in the building? How effectively do they handle complaints? This could be you next month or next year! 6. THE LOBBY TEST After your visit, sit

in the lobby and do an informal survey by asking passing/waiting tenants how long they’ve lived at the property and whether they would recommend it. A good sample for your survey is five to seven people.
