Where we come in If the number one rule in real estate is “location, location, location” then making sure your next place is in the right “neighbourhood, neighbourhood, neighbourhood” is where we come in.

At YPNextHome.ca we have taken “neighbourhood” to the next level.

Knowing that finding a home more than just about location, it’s about the micro details of the neighbourhood, we’ve collected data from across the country, right down to details of who lives there.

We invite you to explore the over

2700+ neighbourhoods we have on our new website to find out not only who lives there, but what their favourite activities and hobbies are too.

Essentially, your neighbourhood is an extension of your home. Get the facts before you decide.

This issue features Downtown Galt, a neighbourhood that we’ve explored and defined ourselves. It’s a small sample of what’s available online.

Check it out and let us know what you think!

We’d love to hear from you.

+ get social

I grew up going to concerts and music festivals. I love listening to music. Loud.

I probably wasn’t the ideal neighbour in years past – but I think I made the right move living in communities where there were likeminded neighbours. In fact, in one place I regularly popped next door for impromptu dance breaks.

I guess if you’re enjoying it, and it works for you and your neighbours, then it’s fine – but this isn’t the

norm. Residents are guaranteed a reasonable level of enjoyment of their home, and nobody’s need to listen to loud music supersedes that.

If you’re losing enjoyment of your home because of noise, talk to the neighbours and/or the landlord.

This issue we’ve got some great neighbourly advice, plus more on ypnexthome.ca. Visit our website, search our YPNextHome App and get ready to make your move.

GALT IS THE LARGEST OFthe three

smaller towns that amalgamated to form the City of Cambridge in 1973. Downtown Galt begins at the towering, Galt Collegiate Institute.

The neighbourhood comprises both banks of the Grand River and stretches south to Ainslie/Concession and up the hill to Dundas in the east.

It’s a slower pace here, owing partly to the older population. But it’s still a lively downtown. While it retains an urban feel, this is still relatively small-town Ontario. It’s a family friendly community on the cusp of gentrification.

Old meets new in this diverse

community. The surroundings are beautiful, with a living history feel, which is why so many movies and TV series are filmed here. The Grand River dominates the core, appropriate considering the river and its many mills are what drew so many to what was once the largest town around.

The converted mills are now beautiful loft condos or shopping complexes.

While most of the population falls into the Boomer category, young professionals in their 20s and 30s are moving into lofts and condos. They’re attracted to the area for its reasonable cost of living, nightlife options and cultural scene.

Downtown Galt is very easy on the budget, great for those who want to save money and still enjoy the perks of living right downtown. It’s highly walkable community with lots of amenities. Commuters reach can reach Brantford in a matter of minutes via Highway 24. North via Hespeler, it’s 10 minutes to the 401. KitchenerWaterloo and Guelph are within easy reach, and there are GO and Greyhound buses in addition to Grand River Transit for public transportation.

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.

Smoke-Free Rentals Who has legal rights?

MORE INFO ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/smoke-rent

By Amy Hancock

SECOND HAND SMOKE can be a problem for those living in multi-unit dwellings. It can waft from one unit to another through ducts, doorways and balconies. Most provinces and territories have smoke-free laws that ban smoking at work and public places, but there is no law banning smoking in private residences.

A landlord has the legal right to include a no-smoking clause in your rental agreement. The landlord can ban smoking in the whole building, individual units, common areas and even balconies. Smoking is not considered a legal human right in any province. Apartments in your building could legally be smoke-free rentals.

If a smoke-free clause has not been included in your rental

agreement, but other tenants are complaining of second-hand smoke, a landlord is still legally permitted to do whatever is necessary to deal with the issue reasonably. Most provincial tenancy laws state that a tenant is entitled to “quiet or peaceful enjoyment” of their home and/or it should be “fit for human habitation.” They recognize that tenants have the legal right to live free from unreasonable disturbances.

An official tribunal could determine that second-hand smoke entering another residence to be an unreasonable disturbance.

Second hand smoke could violate “peaceful enjoyment” of one’s home and, in many cases, that is enough to legally do something about it.

Landlords can ask the smokers to

stop, repair or renovate the building to minimize the transfer of secondhand smoke.

Smoke-Free Housing Canada gives comprehensive advice for both landlords and tenants on the issue. They also give tips on what to do if you find smoke entering your home. They recommend you check if smoking is already prohibited in the common areas within your building, and make a request to your landlord to seal cracks that may be allowing smoke to come in.

It’s always a smart idea to check your rights as tenants concerning smoking on the property when renting and knowing which buildings have smoke-free rentals.

Amy is a freelance writer and communications professional. Her insights and extensive familiarity with Edmonton make her a great guide for getting to know local communities.

Advice | MOVING

Unpack your common sense for a smooth move

By Chuck Resnick

MORE ADVICE ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/news/advice

Did I mention labeling?

WHEN IT COMES to moving, a little common sense goes a long way in getting your belongings to your destination in good shape, on time.

Considering the importance of our possessions, these items deserve proper care. Thinking ahead is the best thing you can do when it comes to making arrangements, packing, etc.

Organization should be your mantra, efficiency your goal.

If you’re doing your own packing, look ahead to lifting, stacking and unpacking the boxes. People often run to the grocery or liquor store to pick up cartons, and then use newspaper as cushioning. Although this approach can save you a few dollars, in the long run, you may pay for it in stress, time and broken items.

Instead, think about purchasing cartons and packing paper from the professional mover you’ve chosen.

The boxes come in uniform small, medium and large sizes, which are easy to stack in a moving truck or van.

Trust me, this convenience is huge on moving day. Unlike newspaper, packing paper does not leave behind ink that then has to be cleaned during unpacking - which is already a hectic enough time.

During the packing itself, be generous with whatever you are using to cushion your things, especially fragile items. People often cram too much in each box in an attempt to keep the number of cartons down. As good as that sounds, it can backfire, as too many items with not enough cushioning may shift during transportation and damage each other.

In addition, someone has to lift each box and place it into the moving vehicle. Packing too many heavy items into one container can result in no one being able to pick it up, or worse yet, the box breaking from the weight. Common sense will tell you that heavier items should be packed in smaller boxes, and vice versa.

Again, a little common sense goes a long way to success at the other end. When you pack the moving vehicle, remember to place the boxes you’ll need first, last — and label accordingly with the contents and which room it goes into. Even better, if you are driving to your next residence, place things such as garbage bags, tissues, dish liquid, etc. into the car. You should also carry valuables such as jewelry, your laptop, important papers and the like separately from the bulk of your items.

Another way to apply common sense to packing is to look at each item with the thought, do I really need and/or use this? Especially if you are moving from a larger space into a smaller one, paring down possessions is important. The fewer things you move, the less your move will cost in terms of time and money.

And speaking of money, if your budget allows, hire movers to do your packing and transporting. We do this every day, and we have it all down to an efficient system. Professional movers want our moves to go smoothly as much as our clients do.

Everyone is born with common sense, but few use it. If you are planning a move, I encourage you to be one of those savvy few!

Advice | RENTERS’ HELP

The benefits to being A LIFETIME RENTER

By Kathryn Kusyszyn

MORE ADVICE ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/news/advice

house repairs or tenants. Any extra funds they have are being put into building the business, therefore owning a home is not a priority or the financial obligation that benefits them the most.

3. PEOPLE IN CAREERS THAT ARE PLANNING TO TRANSITION IN THE NEXT 3 TO 5 YEARS. If they own a home they may be stuck selling during a down market but have little choice in the matter since it their time to move on. Being a renter makes it easier to pick up and leave when necessary. And, practically speaking, their time and energy are focused on their careers.

TO BUY OR TO RENT? It’s a big question, especially since a home will likely be the largest purchase anyone will make in their lifetime.

While conventional wisdom says buy if you can, especially with the current low interest rates, because you build equity, conventional wisdom isn’t always the best option.

It sounds great in theory, however, that theory assumes that you will buy at the best time and sell at the best time, thus maximizing your profits. Nor does it factor in the costs of inflation, renovations, maintenance and upkeep, property taxes and so on.

Often, being a lifetime renter is the preferred option. Here are some scenarios where those who could

afford to buy still opt to rent, and why.

1. YOUNG PROFESSIONALS MORE INTERESTED IN TRAVEL THAN YARD WORK. Couples without children who travel a lot often prefer to ditch the gardening obligations, bills and headaches associated with owning a home. Footloose and fancy free, they would rather put their money into an investment portfolio – yeilding the same or better returns in the long run. Let the landlord deal with utilities and upkeep. They’re off on adventures!

4. FAMILIES WITH SMALL CHILDREN OR CARING FOR ELDERLY FAMILY MEMBERS. They may simply not have the time that home-ownership requires. They are choosing the priority of family, and that is certainly a full-time job, in and of itself. Giving a rent check and then forgetting about it for a month is infinitely easier to manage than the responsibility of a mortgage, upkeep and additonal bills and expenses.

If you see yourself in any of these scenarios, you will likely enjoy being a lifetime renter.

2. ENTREPRENEURS RUNNING A BUSINESS. They frequently work long hours and struggle to find time for family and friends, never mind

Advice | RENTAL RANTINGS

The stupidest move:

The midnight move

By Jennifer Braun

42

YPNEXTHOME.CA

PICTURE THIS: You and your lover rent a truck and move out of your apartment in the middle of the night. Off into the sunset you go – no worries about broken leases, no cleaning fees, no goodbyes – just each other and your stuff.

and would not do something as stupid as a midnight move? I guess you did. Don’t worry about getting your hands on a new reference though. One look at your credit report and any landlord will probably show you the door.

Sound romantic? Well, it isn’t! Bailing on your lease agreement and leaving your landlord high and dry – especially when you owe them rent – is actually the stupidest move you could make.

Consider these seven cautionary tales before you do a midnight move:

DON’T FORGET TO…: When you’re in the middle of a midnight move your mind is wandering, and well, you forget things. You can’t exactly just go back to your recently vacated rental however, and pick up whatever you left behind. Also, don’t forget to ask your landlord for your security deposit back. Oh wait…

YOU WON’T GET AWAY WITH IT: Let’s just start with the fact that you’re not going to get away with bailing on your lease. Be realistic.

Just because you have left the premises, doesn’t mean your landlord won’t find you.

That is, unless, you plan on never using a traceable electronic device again – cell phone, Gmail, Facebook.

I didn’t think so.

IT’S GOING TO COST YOU: You’re on the run and you think you just left your landlord high and dry, but the truth is you’re still liable. You’re responsible for the remainder of your lease, for any damage to the apartment, cleaning fees, any outstanding payments and additional payment for the notice you didn’t give. It’s going to cost you – and it’s going to cost you more than necessary. Your landlord is getting the last laugh, all the way to the bank.

YOU WILL RUIN YOUR CREDIT RATING: So much rides on your credit rating: your ability to rent an apartment, lease a car and even obtain a credit card. Now, wave all of those things good-bye, because you’re not going to get them after a midnight move! Bills that are past due, like the rent you decided not to pay, will come back to haunt you. If things go all the way to court (yes, your landlord will sue you), it will be reflected on your credit score as well.

NEED A REFERENCE?: I’m assuming you need a new place to stay after you completely bailed on your last apartment. Did you forget that a new landlord can ask you to provide references and documents that show you are responsible

BYE BYE NEIGHBOURS: I know it’s hard to believe, but some people actually like their neighbours. Or maybe you convinced your brother-in-law to move into the building you have decided to casually flee. Well, so much for dinner parties at uncle Dom’s. Once you leave, there’s not going back.

WHAT’S THE POINT?: You’re not the first – and certainly not the last – person who has ever had to break a lease, or who has fallen behind in rent. What’s the point of jumping ship and pulling a midnight move? Just speak with your landlord and see if you can both work out an arrangement that will save you time and money. Often the best solution is to find a new renter to take over your lease. Sure it requires some leg work, but it will definitely be worth it.

Moral of the story: Always remain faithful to your lease agreement and don’t try anything stupid. The villain doesn’t win this battle.
