Get some advice I get to hear about a lot of rental experiences. People ask me about different property management companies, about the rules of renting – and even about ways to deal with roommates and neighbours. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind giving advice – but I’m not a legal expert and I don’t always have the answers. However, someone does. Each province has its own act governing rental and tenancy rules and laws. While friends, family and industry professionals can offer anecdotal experiences and may have some insight, if you want the real answers, you need to go right to the source: to the governing body. Whether you’ve got a small issue or a very serious problem, it’s likely that you’re not the first person to experience it. In fact, whatever it is, it’s likely covered by your province’s act. You may have your own solution,
+ get social
but your solution may not be the legal route to solving your problem. For example – many people think they can withhold rent to get the landlord to fix something. In reality, if you withhold rent, you provide the landlord with grounds for evicting you. You’re never allowed to withhold rent unless you’ve go a ruling against your landlord through the board. In fact, the board can even rule for an abatement of rent – getting you a refund for some of your rent for the duration of the issue. Court isn’t the only route, most residential tenancy acts make it clear what your legal entitlements and remedies are. You can opt for mediation as an intermediary step. Often a quick call or search will help with the answers you need. When it’s time to make a move, let Renters Guide help. Check us out online at YPNextHome.ca, and get ready to rent your new home!

BEAUTIFULLY COSY and historically significant, the Hespeler Village area of Cambridge is bounded by Hespeler Road, Blackbridge Road, Townline Road and the Jamieson Parkway. Approximately equidistant to Kitchener/Waterloo, Guelph and greater Cambridge (Galt), it is an oasis of quaintness in the Golden Triangle. Not the sleepy town it appears to be, Hespeler Village is characterized by a civic-minded population with a real mix of values, from the traditional (churches abound) to the esoteric (massage therapists, acupuncturists and holistic nutritionists aplenty). Children of all ages play in the streets,
and it’s definitely more of a family atmosphere than a singles scene. This is a neighbourhood on the move, outdoors oriented and eagerly embracing change. This a community loves the outdoors and shows pride in the homes and gardens. Active professionals jog or cycle along the Speed River, and congregate on weekends and evenings in the bistros of the rapidly gentrifying main drag, Queen Street. With origins as a mill town, Hespeler Village is a healthy mix of working class and younger professionals, some with families.
While housing is affordable, and big box stores and outlet malls are less than a kilometre away, the Queen Street strip readies itself for an influx of new residents in the next few years, with a more upscale feel and price scale. Restaurants are slightly pricier than those along Hespeler Road, but considering the quality and diversity of the dishes, they’re still a bargain compared to bigger city prices.
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. She loves nothing more than exploring new areas, peering into other people’s apartments, houses and yards.

Advice | THE RENTALIST
To be, or not to be, passive aggressive By Jackie Marchildon CHANCES ARE, AS A RENTER
you’ve experience your share of interesting neighbours. There are neighbours that turn into lifelong friends, neighbours you keep as acquaintances and dog walkers, and then there are the bad neighbours you tell stories about to your friends. The loud neighbour, the nosey neighbour, the barking neighbour, the “I’m a jerk for no reason” neighbour — they all have a special spot in your story repertoire. Like it or not, living with a bad neighbour is almost like a rite of passage in the renting world, and we all have to learn how to deal with it. The loud neighbour Before accusing someone of being a loud neighbour, you need to take a few things into account. If you live in a basement of an old building, your upstairs neighbour is probably going to seem loud. There is a difference though, in regular routine noise that unfortunately echoes through old buildings, from the recklessly loud and annoying schedule an actual loud neighbour insists on keeping. If you have a neighbour that consistently plays music at full volume past 11 p.m., or that is just generally excessively loud at all hours, it can be unpleasant for everyone. So, how to deal with it? The passive-aggressive way: Leave an unsigned note on their door or on the front door of the building for all residents to see in an attempt to embarrass them into submission. The other way: Go chat with them. Sometimes people genuinely don’t realize how clearly others can hear
their music (and singing). Asking someone nicely to turn in early occasionally is far more likely to result in a compromise than leaving a note or banging on the ceiling. The nosey neighbour When I think of a nosey neighbour, I picture the old lady that used to live next door to me, who never seemed to approve of male guests coming over. In reality, she was nothing in comparison to a legitimate nosey neighbour — a neighbour who is constantly prying into other tenants’ lives, seemingly trying to catch them doing something wrong, like painting their walls without asking the landlord. If it’s truly bothersome, you need to find a way to deal with it. The passive-aggressive way: Make up some worrisome gossip about another tenant to send the nosey neighbour scurrying in fear to get them off your back. The other way: You can talk to your neighbour and let them know you’re a private person and don’t always want to share everything with them — nicely. Or you can be kind and still chat with them, but avoid divulging too much information. The barking neighbour If you’re annoyed with a dog barking in your building, try to remember that a little barking is normal for dogs, especially in busy buildings. If the barking is excessive — and happening at all hours — then it’s a different story. You might be worried the dog is upset or alone too often. But you really don’t know, so again, you can go about this one of two ways.
The passive-aggressive way: Leave an unsigned note on the door for the owner telling them you’re going to call animal control. The other way: Knock on your neighbour’s door and chat with them about their dog’s barking. It’s likely they don’t know that their dog barks when they aren’t home and they’d appreciate hearing your concern over a threat. The disagreeable neighbour Ah, the worst neighbour of them all. They are loud when you don’t want to be, call the landlord when you do want to be, and they don’t hold the elevator when you’re struggling to run in with multiple bags of groceries. If they have a dog, the dog is always barking. If they don’t have a dog, they are always complaining about yours. All around, they are the jerk of your community. How do we go about living with this kind of neighbour? The passive-aggressive way: There are many options here. Call the cops when they are loud, make up things to try to get them evicted, leave them notes, be mean to them, etc. The other way: Be the bigger person and ignore their quirks. If something big comes up (bigger than them just not holding the elevator), go talk to them, or talk to your landlord about options that might work for everyone. Remember — sometimes we just happen to catch someone on a really bad day. They might not be so bad all the time.

Advice | STYLE FILE
Fill those fresh walls By Elisa Krovblit BUYING ART CAN BE INTIMIDATING.
Most people don’t know where to begin or what they want – let alone how to approach putting together a whole collection to fill their space. When moving into a new apartment, that can mean a lot of empty walls. There are many ways to fill those walls. You can default to the mass produced canvases at decor stores, but there’s no originality in those. Everyone has the same Parisian café scene. You can fill your home with family portraits, but there’s a limit to how many pictures of the kids and grandkids can comfortably be used. You need to go out and find art – shows, galleries, installations. You need to learn what kind of art you like, and start indulging. Art doesn’t have any rules. You can’t be wrong. You don’t have to buy art to match your walls or your furniture. Pieces don’t need to match each other. You can have different sizes, different subjects and different media. As long as you love it, it’s the perfect piece. There are two reasons that hold most people back from buying art. The first is that they don’t know what to buy. They’re intimidated to try. They don’t know anything about art and are afraid to make a mistake. The second is that people think art needs to be expensive and that they aren’t able to invest in the right pieces. Don’t let either of these things hold you back. Art is supposed to appeal to your emotions, not just your mind. There are no mistakes here. What one person likes, another hates. Art is very personal this way. Look at art without any preconceived notions. What you like is what you like – it’s as simple as that. From style and colour to
subject matter, it’s all a very personal decision. The art you’re drawn to is going to be an expression of who you are, and that’s what should fill your walls. You bought your bed because you find it comfortable, you weren’t worried about whether other people would also like it. You buy your perfume or cologne because you like the scent – you’re not crowdsourcing friends to make sure they’re in love with it too. Art is the same – it should be personally fulfilling. And like every other item in your home, art should be a response to your needs. “Feed my eyes,” my friend, the Toronto street chalk artist Victor Fraser once painted on a big empty slate. Keep this in mind. Art should feed your eyes. Art doesn’t have to be expensive. You’re not going to start off by hanging original Jackson Pollocks and Matisses. You can find great original art at very reasonable price points. As artists become collected their work becomes more valuable. There are galleries and reps that specialize in discovering new talent. These may best suit your budget. You can check out art online – but it’s better to go into galleries and experience art in person. The size alone can have a real impact, and also the colours, the textures and the light. Don’t forget to look for art in unexpected places. Basquiat used to sell his art on the street $10 for a postcard-sized work, – now worth thousands. In 2013 famed street artist Banksy set up a pop-up shop and sold pieces for $60 – buyers ended up with very valuable pieces, some that immediately earned sixfigure appraisals – yet most people just walked by.
Top: David Krovblit, The Garden photo: Krovblit.com Bottom: Immerse yourself in art and discover what you love. photos: Artist Project theartistproject.com
As you stroll the galleries and visit art fairs, don’t be afraid to ask questions and start discussions with the gallery owners – or if you’re really lucky, with the artists themselves. They’re often at shows and love the rare opportunity to connect with their audience. Ask questions, explore the pieces. If you like something, get it, or at least take a card or a postcard so you can create a file and then go back when you find yourself thinking about that great piece you saw. Feed your eyes, that’s what art is all about!
