hen 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. If you’re shown a model, ask to view the actual suite where you’ll be living 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 be asked to fill out an Inspection Worksheet when you move in, which the landlord will sign. This is an important document to keep on hand for moving day. Consider taking photographs if there are damaged areas, or bring a video camera if you have one and tape the inspection. A little diligence now ensures peace of mind for later.

f you’re just leaving home, you may have visions of your parents’ home, with lavish amounts of space: living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen and lots of closets. But newly out of the nest – whether starting your career or heading off to school – you may find your budget and your vision are very different realities. Your big decision will probably be deciding between living in a smaller apartment, perhaps a bachelor or studio, or having a roommate (or two, or three) so you can afford more space. If you’re downsizing now that the nest is empty, you may be trying to figure out how your current household will fit into a much smaller place. You may find that, as a single or a couple, you only need one bedroom, but you would prefer a twobedroom so that when your child/children come for a visit you have the room for them to stay over. Perhaps that extra bedroom will even be used for sleep-overs with grandchildren! Sometimes the move is more difficult – downsizing because of a less desirable change in life like divorce or financial distress. Consider what you really need as opposed to what you’re accustomed to having. It can be hard to consider life alone, but if you make this a fresh start and embrace your new home as something that is all yours, you can invest yourself in it without compromise. If it’s financial, try to cut back. Consider it temporary and forge a plan for getting back on your feet. Keep in mind that, by buckling down, you can get back on track and move on. Bigger isn’t necessarily better when it comes to apartment living. The one mistake people often make is renting a space to accommodate their stuff. Do you want extra rooms that you won’t use just so you can house extra furniture? Is it worth paying for a storage space when you could simply unload some items? Renters Guide makes it easy to look for an apartment to suit your lifestyle. Our magazine and website, TheRentersGuide.ca plus our new Renters Guide app for iPhone, offer the best selection of available apartments as well as great articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

H&R PROPERTY MANAGEMENT Welcoming you home

H&R PROPERTY MANAGEMENT OFFERS SPECTACULAR OPTIONS AT EGLINTON AND SCARLETT. With four highrise buildings along Richview Road, just north of Eglinton and two more mid-rise buildings just south of Eglinton on Fontenay Court, the location is the perfect balance of urban convenience and tranquil greenspace. The surrounding area offers all of the urban amenities – shopping, dining and necessities, all within the neighbourhood. With parks, schools and recreational facilities – including an 18-hole golf course - the area is great for all types of renters, with something for everyone. There is public transit access virtually at the front door, the bus system serves the area 24 hours a day. The area is great for commuters, with Highways 401, 400 and 427 offering easy access. Frequent flyers will also appreciate the location as access to the airport doesn’t involve cross-town traffic. H&R Property Management has created both the Richview and the Fontenay Court communities to offer a comfortable and quality rental experience. Located at 1A, 1B, 25 and 39 Richview Road; and 20 and 30 Fontenay Court, buildings enjoy access to great greenspace and parkland surrounding the Humber River with great views of area parks. TheRentersGuide.ca The lush grounds of these buildings add to the tranquility and serenity of the location. Both communities offer a great variety of suite sizes at a great value. Generously proportioned, one-, two- and three-bedroom suites and penthouses TheRentersGuide.ca are spacious and include plenty of storage space,

including walk-in closets, linen and coat closets, as well as ample cabinetry in the kitchen. Features like enclosed dens, large balconies and ensuites in some of the master bedrooms add comfort to these homes. Just make a decisions whether you want the highrise lifestyle or the smaller mid-rise community. Richview highrises offer great amenities like his and her changerooms, saunas and indoor pools – 1A Richview has an onsite convenience store; 25 and 39 Richview offer central air conditioning; and 39 Richview boasting both an indoor and an outdoor pool for some added summer fun! The Fontenay buildings, at 12 storeys, are more intimate with a newly renovated lobby and lush, landscaped grounds on a quiet little court. Both communities are great options. With on-site customer service, residents’ needs are always the priority. In fact, leasing managers and superintendents aren’t just ‘the staff’, they treat residents as their neighbours and friends. In fact, most superintendents in H&R communities have been with their buildings a decade or two – and the few that have left or moved have received warm send-offs and left big shoes to fill. From resident appreciation events to holiday decorations and celebrations, they develop more than just a place to live, they create wonderful places to call home. H&R Property Management has been in the business for over 50 years and has played a role in shaping the residential rental community in the GTA. For three generations they’ve been involved in the business from the ground up – not just managing, but also in the construction of their rental communities. Having been involved in the process from the very beginning, from selecting locations and investing quality and craftsmanship into the construction, H&R has been able to maintain and incorporate high standards into all the buildings in each of the 28 buildings they own. While other arms of the company continue to build new real estate products across the GTA, H&R Property Management continues to keep their rental communities modern and well-maintained. With proactive management and an interest in adopting new technology and innovations, H&R Property Management’s buildings are setting the bar high in the rental industry. With six great buildings to choose from, it will be easy to find the TheRentersGuide.ca perfect suite to call home. For more information visit hrpm.ca. Call 416-247-3012 for details or to make an appointment for Richview and call 416-249-2386 for info and an appointments for Fontenay.

EGLINTON FLATS

Scenic and Serene BY JANE HERMAN

DOES THE THOUGHT OF HAVING A SPECTACULAR VIEW OF THE HUMBER RIVER ALONG WITH PROXIMITY TO ONE OF Torontoâ€™s largest regional sports facilities sound appealing? If so, the scenic area of Eglinton Flats, situated around Eglinton Ave. West between Scarlett Road and Jane Street just might be for you. TheRentersGuide.ca

Built on the Humber River floodplain, this land was owned by the Scarlett family during the mid-1800s and later used extensively for market gardens until it was devastated by Hurricane Hazel in the 1950s. Since the land is so fertile, local residents continue to cultivate it

TheRentersGuide.ca

today, and who knows, with the movement back to locally grown food, it could again become very popular. Emmett Gardens is a community garden plot under cultivation by residents in the area. The West Park Healthcare Center, a facility for long term and rehabilitative care is also located in this area. There are bus routes on all the main streets that run to Runnymede and Eglinton West subway stations and the Weston GO station is right at Weston Road and Lawrence. HAVING FUN Eglinton Flats Park occupies three quadrants at the intersection of Jane and Eglinton Ave. West, and offers an array of facilities and activities, including fields for soccer, TheRentersGuide.ca field hockey, rugby, cricket and baseball. There are twelve pay as you play tennis courts (covered by a bubble, so they can be used for indoor play), an ice rink and pool,

You can also enjoy the many scenic walking trails to be found along the river and running throughout the parkland. Topham Pond in the southeast quadrant is also surrounded by walking trails. If you’re a golfer or aspire to be one, you will enjoy playing at Scarlett Woods Golf Course, one of the city’s most scenic public courses, which occupies the fourth quadrant of the intersection. SHOPPING The closest and most convenient place to shop for groceries in this area is at the grocery at Black Creek Drive and Eglinton. It’s relatively new, clean and has lots of parking. The Crossroads at Weston Road and the 401 also serves this community. There’s another TheRentersGuide.ca grocery on Weston Road, and many other stores in the open concept shopping area, including a hardware

TheRentersGuide.ca

store, decor shopping and the liquor store, plus several restaurants and banks. There’s also a local shopping district along Weston Road, (Weston Village) featuring an ethnic grocery store, some variety stores, banks, a pharmacy and some professional offices and services. Everything is in the neighbourhood and lots of variety is available. LIVING IN THE AREA Eglinton Flats is a delightful neighbourhood, open and spacious, without a lot of density and commercialism. It has a diverse population. You can find a number of attractive high rise buildings situated on Scarlett Road and along LaRose and Richview, the two streets just north of Eglinton, as well as along Emmett Ave. and Fontenay Court just south of Eglinton.

BUILDING A VIBRANT, MIXED-INCOME COMMUNITY IN THE WEST DON LANDS THE WEST DON LANDS ON THE SOUTHEASTERN EDGE OF downtown is quickly becoming a dynamic and desirable neighbourhood. Led by Waterfront TheRentersGuide.ca Toronto, the 80-acre site is being transformed into a sustainable, mixeduse, pedestrian-friendly, riverside TheRentersGuide.ca community.

The neighbourhoodâ€™s Corktown Common and Underpass Park are already popular destinations for Toronto residents, and as more people move into new buildings the popularity of the West Don Lands is sure to grow. One key feature of the West Don Lands is the commitment to building mixed-income housing. The first of the new affordable housing, built by Toronto TheRentersGuide.ca Community Housing, is nearing completion along the northern periphery of the neighbourhood. Residents will begin moving this summer into these

TheRentersGuide.ca 48

three new affordable rental buildings, constructed on former industrial lands. Two four-storey buildings, including one, two- and three-bedroom units, will welcome a mix of families and individuals. The third building, an eight-storey mid-rise on King Street East reserved for seniors, will contain ground level retail space that will support the vitality of the neighbourhood. There will be shared common space between the buildings, with greenspace, pergolas, seating areas and a splash pad for children. Toronto is known around the world for its vibrant mix of diverse neighbourhoods. Throughout our city, the strongest neighbourhoods allow single parent households, newcomers to Canada, seniors and families of all incomes to live side-by-side, near recreation, education, employment, and cultural amenities. By supporting affordable and accessible housing, the West Don Lands will soon be a thriving, diverse neighbourhood that blends into the rest of the city.

ONE OF THE MAJOR REASONS WHY THE FEDERATION OF RENTAL-HOUSING PROVIDERS OF ONTARIO (FRPO) CREATED THE CERTIFIED RENTAL BUILDING PROGRAM (CRBP) was to help ensure a good quality of life for tenants in certified buildings. One of the program’s Standards of the Practice is that the property manager must carry out an annual suite inspection program at each building. The inspection is for the purpose of determining whether or not the rental unit is in a good state of repair, fit for habitation, has working smoke alarms, and complies with health, safety, housing and maintenance standards. Apartment buildings that qualify under the program comply with the conditions stipulated in the Residential Tenancies Act, which protects renters’ safety and privacy. Interestingly, this Act also outlines tenant responsibilities, and there are many. It’s a matter of respect that has to go both ways to make a building work well. One example is providing access to your apartment when necessary, especially for the purposes of an annual suite inspection. Your property manager (landlord) must give you 24 hours written notice of entry, stipulating the reason and the time (which has to be between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.). He/she should be able to expect co-operation on your part with proper notification. Remember that although your apartment is your “home,” it actually belongs to someone else who has the right to protect that investment and ensure the best welfare of all.

TheRentersGuide.ca “There are valid reasons why a property manager may need to enter your apartment,” says Lynzi Michal, FRPO’s manager of Operations and Member Services.“It may be a case of completing necessary repairs or replacing items, checking the smoke alarm and replacing the battery, or conducting an annual inspection that determines immediate and preventative TheRentersGuide.ca 58

maintenance needs. This is a very important part of running an efficient and safe apartment building.” A potential mortgagee or insurer of the apartment complex may also need to look inside the apartments to ensure that it is fit for habitation and complies with health, safety, housing and maintenance standards. “Renters also need to be aware that a landlord may enter a rental apartment at any time without written notice in cases of emergency, or if tenants consent to entry at the time they are approached,” says Vince Brescia, FRPO’s president.“When there is a good cause, it benefits everyone involved to cooperate with entry.” Most apartment dwellers want to live in an apartment-home that is being properly maintained by the property manager. The annual suite inspection program helps to ensure the quality of rental product is being consistently maintained. Prospective renters are well advised to ensure that the apartment building they are considering to live in carries out annual inspection program as part of their ongoing operations and maintenance activities. You will also find valid information at frpo.org, the site of the Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario, which created the Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP) to help apartment-seekers find buildings that meet certain standards of quality and service.

ORGANIZE ON A BUDGET

Cost-effective tips to cut your clutter BY HELLEN BUTTIGIEG

PRICES KEEP GOING UP AND UP, SO WHEN YOU’RE CUTTING COSTS, why not cut clutter at the same time? You don’t need to spend your hard-earned money on expensive storage solutions – chances are, you may have the thrifty answers in your home already! USE WHAT YOU HAVE. Organizing doesn’t have to cost a fortune; just get creative. Before rushing out to buy bins and baskets, look around your home for containers you can re-purpose. Here are some ideas: » Egg cartons or ice cube trays can be used to organize earring sets, cuff links or hair accessories. » Empty plastic baby-wipe containers can be used to store crayons, first aid or sewing supplies, and they stack easily on a shelf. » Empty baby food jars can be used to keep touch-up paint, spare buttons, or screws and nails. » A mug holder can be re-purposed into a scarf or baseball cap holder. » Empty tissue boxes can hold plastic grocery bags or, with the top cut off, packets of gravy and instant soup.

CORRAL COIN CLUTTER. Do you have loose change in every part of your home? Grab a clear jar and label it Fun Funds. Now you have a designated place to deposit those coins, both reducing clutter and creating a little nest egg. Once the jar is full, treat yourself to a small indulgence and then start again. ZIP BAGS ARE A COST-EFFECTIVE CURE-ALL FOR CLUTTER. Plastic bags that zip shut are for more than just keeping sandwiches fresh. Use the large ones to store shoes when travelling so that they don’t soil your clothing. Use the small ones to organize the contents of your drawers. Place elastic bands in one bag, and cotton swabs in another. Use them for band-aids, cosmetic sponges and bobby pins. Items remain sorted, clean and dust-free. Bonus: no need to label because you can see the contents clearly. WANT TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF PAPER PILING UP IN YOUR OFFICE, AND SAVE TREES AND MONEY AS WELL? Pull the paper out of your printer and store it in a file folder across the room. Although this may seem counter-productive, you will actually be saving time in the long run. By making it less convenient to print, you will begin to print more consciously and less often. As a result, you’ll have fewer papers to pile, sort through and file later, and you’ll spend less money on print cartridges and paper.

» The large clear plastic container that you can buy prewashed salad in is perfect for storing special occasion shoes, keeping them visible yet dust-free. BEFORE YOU GO SHOPPING, ELIMINATE THE CLOTHES YOU DON’T WEAR TO MAKE ROOM FOR TheRentersGuide.ca NEW ITEMS. Use the “one in – one out” rule: for every item you bring home, let go of one. The advantages are you’ll spend less because you know what you already have, you can buy clothes that co-ordinate with existing items, and you’ll be able to get dressed faster because TheRentersGuide.ca there will be fewer decisions to make.

CHOOSING

THE RIGHT LANDLORD Six tips from an industry insider By Sheryl Erenberg

1 2 3 4 THERE ARE A LOT OF CHOICES OUT THERE. Here are six tips from Marketing Consultant Sheryl Erenberg, who specializes in rental TheRentersGuide.ca communities: TheRentersGuide.ca 80

5 6

HOW ATTRACTIVE IS THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING? We call this “curb appeal” in the industry. Are the grounds kept? Are the hedges trimmed? Is the grass cut and are the flower beds planted? Is the building sign visible and up to date? If the property looks neglected, the chances are good that tenants will be too! FINDING THE PERSON WHO DOES RENTALS It shouldn’t be an obstacle course or an episode of CSI to get from the parking lot to the person who rents apartments. We call this “The Golden Path” to the product. The “path” should be clean, welllit and have plenty of signs along the way. Ideally, a sign above the enterphone panel should tell you who to call. 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. 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. YES, YOU CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE! 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! 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. Sheryl Erenberg is president of Sheryl Erenberg and Associates. Her marketing consulting firm has advised TheRentersGuide.ca hundreds of developers and landlords over the past three decades. The company specializes in repositioning stigmatized properties and marketing under-performing communities. sherylerenberg.com

RENTER’S INSURANCE:

Why you need It B Y JAN E H E RMAN

It shouldn’t take a tragedy to raise our awareness of the necessity of carrying renter’s insurance. But unfortunately, it sometimes does. TheRentersGuide.ca 82

TheRentersGuide.ca

renter’shelp

Thankfully, no one was injured in a Torontoarea fire that was caused by a faulty power surge protector bar in a highrise building on Graydon Hall Drive a few years ago. Because of the design of the building, the fire was contained to the apartment where it started and did not spread.“The staff was fantastic and everyone in the building evacuated quickly,” said Property Manager Barb Petelski. But the tenant in whose apartment it broke out, lost everything – all of her furniture, clothing, and other possessions. Not only that, due to the extensive smoke and the water used to extinguish the fire, both the apartment immediately above and the apartment below were left completely uninhabitable. And for the residents and victims, it was a terrible tragedy that might have been averted had the tenant been insured. As a result of the fire, three families were displaced for up to five months and a fourth family was significantly inconvenienced while extensive repairs were made. Had the tenant been insured, the landlord would not have had to pay for the damages. Instead, those funds that could have been used for needed repairs, maintenance or capital improvements to the building. “Ironically,” said Petelski,“the tenants above the damaged apartment had insurance, and were immediately moved into a vacant apartment in the building. Their insurance company sent in a team of cleaners, who thoroughly cleaned everything – their furniture, towels, and bedding – and moved everything into their new apartment.”These tenants didn’t have to do anything, or pay for any of this. Most people are unaware that their landlord’s insurance does not cover loss or damage to the personal property of tenants, no matter how the damage occurs, including in a fire. Landlords have relatively few legal obligations to compensate tenants for damage to, including loss of their personal possessions. Likewise, if you are forced to vacate your apartment due to a fire or other circumstances, the landlord is not required to compensate you for alternative accommodation while repairs are being made. It’s unfortunate that people’s circumstances are often so tight that they try to avoid paying the cost of the premiums. In reality, renter’s insurance is much less expensive than you might imagine. A $35,000 contents (to replace your personal possessions) and $1,000,000 liability policy (for cause, onsite accidents, and structure) for a highrise building should cost a couple of hundred dollars a year - broken down monthly it’s TheRentersGuide.ca quite manageable – $20-$30 a month. Many leases require that tenants carry both liability as well as contents insurance. You might want to start with the agent who handles your car

TheRentersGuide.ca

insurance and ask him or her to provide you with a price. Many insurance companies are happy to set up a tenants package for a customer – most provide multi-policy discounts if you have property and auto coverage together. If you have been living at home and this is your first apartment, you could approach your parents’ insurance broker. You can try calling one of the major insurance companies directly and speak to an agent. Call centres or website companies that sell insurance directly are called “direct writers,” and are another potential source of information. You can also see if your school/alma mater, company, bank or any other associations for which you are a member offer a group rate. The group buy is often used to leverage members preferred rates at great savings. You can even use an online calculator to get a ballpark figure of cost. Occasionally tenants take the policy in order to satisfy the landlord and cancel afterwards. Don’t make this mistake. While it’s unlikely that you’ll ever need, it the peace of mind it provides is well worth the small price you’ll pay. Given this reality, isn’t it best to protect yourself and your family from what could be a significant expense and catastrophe?

Decorating

FOR RENTERS

BY YANIC SIMARD

YOU PROBABLY DON’T WANT TO SINK A FORTUNE INTO YOUR RENTAL, especially if you don’t plan on staying longterm. However, you don’t have to make do with eggshellTheRentersGuide.ca painted bare walls either. Even if your living space is temporary, there are many decorating solutions that you can take with you TheRentersGuide.ca when you go, and make your place feel like home for the time being. TheRentersGuide.ca TheRentersGuide.ca 94

PAINT. If you really can’t stand the neutral wall colour, try asking your landlord if you can paint, even if it’s only one feature wall (if you promise paint it back when you leave it may help). If they say no, there are still plenty of options when it comes to adding personality into your space. A VARIETY OF STORES. Mix and match your furniture pieces, don’t purchase everything at once. My general rule of thumb is to shop at a minimum of three different stores when furnishing your home. You don’t have to buy everything at the same time, shop around and turn your place into a story. ART. If your landlord doesn’t want holes in the walls, you’ve got a few options when it comes to artwork and wall-hung accessories. You can purchase pieces that are free standing, such as my personal favourite, large floorstanding mirrors. Mirrors are a great way to make a room look larger and feel more upscale. Your second option is using stick-on hooks (you can find these at any home improvement store) that are guaranteed not to create surface damage and can hold quite a lot of weight. There is a wide range of sizes and styles available that will suit your undressed-wall’s needs! VISUAL INTEREST. Create some visual interest in your rental unit by placing a large, floor-to-ceiling, free standing book shelf to cover one of your empty walls and to make use of your vertical space. This can easily be a feature wall, and a great way to show off your belongings. Make sure whatever you place on the shelves are at varying heights. Book shelves aren’t only for books anymore- you can dedicate a shelf for your glassware including vases of different colours and sizes, and you can also purchase baskets to place on a couple shelves that serve as great storage and a great place to hide clutter. COLOURS, PATTERNS AND TEXTURES. Liven up the space with different colours, patterns and textures. When mixing patterns, make sure the scales differ, for example, match a large-scale floral with a small-scale stripe. You can bring in these elements in varying ways. Throw cushions, area rugs, bedding and upholstery are just a few options. Be creative and let your style shine through. You may feel frustrated at first when it comes to decorating your rental unit. No paint, no holes and no major changes doesn’t mean no style.

RENTING A HOME Know your rights and responsibilities WHETHER YOU’RE A FIRST-TIME RENTER or an experienced tenant, when it comes to renting a home, it’s important to make sure you understand your rights and responsibilities. To help you through each stage of the rental process, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) offers the following tips on how to find the right place to call home, and what you need to know after you move in: The first step in looking for a home is to identify your needs as a renter. What’s your budget? Which neighbourhood do you want to live in? How many bedrooms do you need? What amenities are important to you? If you haven’t already created a list of your needs and preferences, CMHC’s Rental Search Worksheet can

help give you a head start. Once you’ve identified what you’re looking for, it’s time to start looking for your new home. There are a number of resources available to help you find a place to rent. These can range from newspapers, apartment listing websites and bulletin boards in local libraries or community centres, to asking friends for recommendations or simply visiting neighbourhoods you like and looking for signs that say“For Rent.”{Ed’s note: And magazines like Renters Guide are a great go-to source!] When you look at a prospective rental, have a list of questions ready to ask the landlord. For example, you may want to know if the rent includes parking or utilities, what type of lease will you be asked to sign, whether or not you can make any changes to the premises, and whether pets or smoking are allowed. When meeting a landlord, try to make a good impression. Dress neatly and arrive on time. Respect the current tenant’s

TheRentersGuide.ca TheRentersGuide.ca TheRentersGuide.ca 100

TheRentersGuide.ca

privacy. And make the landlord’s job easier by bringing your rental history and references, a letter from your current employer, and a cheque so you can leave a deposit in case you’re interested in the home. If you will be viewing more than one apartment, write down the key features of each place so you can compare them later. CMHC’s Rental Unit Evaluation Worksheet can help you evaluate your options and make an informed decision. When you rent a place, the landlord will usually ask you to sign a rental agreement, commonly known as a“lease.”Rental agreements vary from one province or territory to another, but they generally include the names of the landlord and tenant, the address of the property, the amount of the rent and what it includes, the date when the rent is due each month, the amount of any security or damage deposits, the term of the rental period, as well as things like who is responsible for maintaining the property, whether there are any restrictions on the tenant, and when and how the landlord can enter the premises. Once you’ve signed your lease, it’s time to move in! Moving can be a hectic time. A planning checklist, such as CMHC’s Three Weeks to Moving Day, can help you keep track of all the details, and help make sure your move goes as smoothly as possible. Before you move in, you and your landlord should inspect your new home together. Use an Initial Inspection Worksheet to document everything you notice, so you won’t be held liable for any preexisting damage when you leave. Once you’re living in your new home, make sure you and your landlord are clear on who is responsible for what, especially with issues such as emergency or regular repairs, rent increases, or how to handle any complaints that might arise. In the event of an emergency (such as a leaking roof or broken furnace on a cold TheRentersGuide.ca winter day), try to contact your landlord or emergency contact at least twice, and give them a reasonable amount of time to respond. If you can’t reach your landlord

TheRentersGuide.ca

and have to authorize emergency repairs yourself, make sure to document and keep all paperwork related to the repair for later reimbursement. If a problem arises that you can’t work out directly with your landlord, check with your provincial or territorial rental authority to find out if there are any tenant advocacy groups in your community. Do not withhold rent to pay for repairs, as this can be grounds to have you evicted. When your lease expires, you may sign a new lease, or you might shift to a monthto-month lease. Depending on where you live, your landlord could also give notice that they will be increasing your rent. For more information on renewing a lease and rent increases, read the CMHC Provincial and Territorial Fact Sheet for your area. Eventually, the time will come when you’re ready to end your tenancy and move out. When this time comes, you and your landlord will again inspect the property together, to see if any repairs

are needed above and beyond the usual “wear and tear.”Your landlord will also have to return any damage or security deposits you paid when you moved in, plus interest. Remember: you may need your old landlord to give you a reference in the future, so do your best to leave under good terms. Give them the proper amount of notice in writing. Make any necessary repairs. Allow the landlord to show the home to potential new tenants. And leave the place in as good a condition as you found it, so the next tenants will be able to enjoy their new home as much as you did. To find out more about renting a home in Canada, visit CMHC’s online Guide to Renting a Home or call 1-800-668-2642. For over 65 years, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has been Canada’s national housing agency, and a source of objective, reliable housing information.

Install a carbon monoxide alarm TO MAKE A SILENT KILLER NOISY WHEN IT COMES TO PROTECTING YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY FROM THE DANGERS OF CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) EXPOSURE, the first line of defence is always the proper maintenance of fuel–burning appliances. When fuel–burning devices are properly installed and maintained, they will operate as designed and exhaust gases outdoors. The second line of defence is the installation of carbon monoxide alarms. The importance of having carbon monoxide alarms is heightened during the winter months when we keep doors and windows closed and increase our use of fuel–burning equipment, such as furnaces. Here are some tips to guide you in the installation and maintenance of your carbon monoxide alarm: t Alarms should be certified by the Canadian Standards Association, CAN/CGA 6.19, or the Underwriters Laboratories 2034 standard.

It’s colourless, odourless, and tasteless. Exposure can cause symptoms similar to the flu and food poisoning. It’s sometimes called the TheRentersGuide.ca “silent killer”. It’s carbon monoxide and it can be deadly. TheRentersGuide.ca 104

t We’re most susceptible to the effects of carbon monoxide while we’re asleep – install your alarm near your primary sleeping area. t Install additional alarms in other sleeping areas, near rooms where combustion appliances are located (like adjacent to a furnace room), or rooms near a potential source of carbon monoxide (like an attached garage or fireplace). t Don’t let furniture, draperies or obstructions to normal air flow block your carbon monoxide alarms. t When harmful carbon monoxide levels are present, an audible alarm will sound. t If your CO alarm sounds, open windows and doors and evaluate your situation. If anyone is experiencing the flu–like symptoms of CO exposure, seek medical help or call 911.

TACKLE YOUR HOME TO-DO LIST

in no time with spray paint WE ALL HAVE HOME IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS ON OUR TO-DO LIST, but when will we ever get them done? If you are time-strapped as well, take a look at the advanced technology now in spray paints. Leading company, Krylon, for example, points to its ColorMaster brand with the durable ‘Covermax’ technology. It is specifically formulated to give you cleaner, crisper hues, with more brilliant colour, plus a smooth, durable finish. From household décor to patio furniture and more, this spray paint will allow you to accomplish all your home improvement tasks in style. CANNING JAR CREATIONS Do you have mismatched jars cluttering your cupboards? Fortunately, Mason jars are the ideal size to create anything from a flower vase, an herb garden or desktop organizer, and the raised outer design adds a touch of whimsy and nostalgia. With just a bit of spray paint, your clutter can be transformed into a clever creation. After thoroughly cleaning the jars, simply spray several light coats onto the jars using your favourite shades of Krylon ColorMaster spray paint. It dries in just 10 minutes and is available in nearly 100 brilliant colours and finishes. Once dry, you now have a beautiful new vessel to hold anything from plants to pencils. TERRACOTTA POTTED PLANTERS Why settle for “ho hum” planters? Instead convert ceramic or terra cotta pots into an eye-catching interest piece for your home or balcony. To start, be sure that each pot has a clean and smooth TheRentersGuide.ca surface. Next, apply primer to the surface and allow to dry, using a white primer for light colours and a gray primer for dark colours. Next, paint each pot in a different colour of spray paint and let dry. Finally, to add an image or design, place a stencil on the centre of each pot and spray with a TheRentersGuide.ca light coat of paint. Arrange your pots, fill with flowers and 110

voila… you now have an original and welcoming display. HANDSOME HEADBOARD Does your headboard need help? Luckily, paint can take any piece of furniture from blah to beautiful. So instead of replacing your old headboard, rejuvenate it. Start by sanding and cleaning to ensure you have a solid surface. Next apply primer. Once dry, spray the headboard in your favourite colour of spray paint. And don’t limit yourself to just one colour. You can use painter’s tape to cover different areas to create a multi-colour surface – or add embellishments, such as stencils. The opportunities are endless. With a bit of creativity and a few hours, you can spray your way through your DIY to-do list. More information is available online at krylon.ca. NC

FABULOUS FRITTO MISTO DI MARE DIRECTIONS FOR THE FRITTERS Heat the oil in a small saucepan, and while it’s warming, cut the squid into rings. Put the cornflour, semolina and Old Bay seasoning in a large freezer bag and add mixed seafood in batches, tossing to coat. When the oil is hot enough, which it when it sizzles a small piece of bread, fry the seafood in batches to get the most golden crunchiness. A couple of minutes per batch is all you need. Lay the cooked seafood on a paper towel, as you continue to fry the remainder of the misto. Serve with lemon wedges and your favourite mayonnaise. I like Mike’s Chipotle Mayonnaise from the St. Lawrence Market!

A SIMPLE BUT INDULGENT PLEASURE, I COULD EASILY EAT A WHOLE BOWL OF FRITTO MISTO WITH SOME LEMON WEDGES AND A DOLLOP OF CHIPOTLE MAYONNAISE ON MY OWN. You can vary the seafood to your suit your own taste, but a lovely mixture of scallops, squid, prawns, whitebait and a firm whitefish like monkfish, cod or haddock, is the best combination. The only rule: the seafood should be absolutely fresh and eaten as soon as it comes out of the pan. Thrown together in a spicy mixture of cornflour, semolina and Old Bay seasoning, the seafood is flash fried in very hot vegetable oil for a few minutes, just until they’ve reached the perfect level of golden crunchiness. Served with a cold glass of Pinot Grigio, enjoy the fritto misto while it’s still nice and hot. As they say in Naples, frijenno e magnanno — “fry it and eat it!” FRITTO MISTO DI MARE INGREDIENTS Serves 4 to 6 as a first course › 1 lb large scallops › 4 cups of vegetable oil, for frying › 1/2 lb whitebait ›TheRentersGuide.ca 2 tbsp cornflour › 4 tbsp semolina flour › 1/2 lb monkfish, sliced into 1-inch pieces › 2 tsp Old Bay seasoning › 1 lemon, cut into wedges › 1 lb squid, tubes and tentacles › 1 lb large shrimp, shelled and TheRentersGuide.ca deveined 116

COOK’S NOTE: I like to throw in some sliced lemon and parsley into the misto while it’s frying, for and added taste and colour sensation!

ACCESSORIES ARE TO A ROOM AS JEWELRY IS TO

an outfit - it completes the look and pulls it all together. To me, the best part of the design is all in the details. Accessories can be anything that complement a design and add to the aesthetic value. When you think of accessories, imagine the impact of wall art, throw pillows, antiques, sculptures, vases, collectibles or even memorabilia. It can be something very personal or on the contrary, a piece which varies seasonally. I like to pull the accessories together last – or at least once all major pieces have been selected. This offers the freedom to contrive a more organic design, almost allowing the accessories to find you. Once the major pieces have been chosen, you have a better sense of how the room feels and ultimately what is missing from within the mix. I like to plan the mood of a space right from the get-go so when it comes down to the details, it’s simple to reinforce the initial design concepts.

WHEN YOU THINK OF ACCESSORIES, IMAGINE THE IMPACT OF WALL ART, THROW PILLOWS, ANTIQUES, SCULPTURES, VASES, COLLECTIBLES OR EVEN MEMORABILIA. Accessories can be a very personal thing so there is no right or wrong answer, however there are a few “rules” I like to follow. For instance, grouping items together – odd numbers work best, and combining multiple items allows TheRentersGuide.ca you to create volume and add visual weight to your space. Choose objects with a common design element to create repetition, which is key to consistency. Allow the eye to see a balanced flow from one side of the room to the other. Tension is one of my favourite elements of design when it TheRentersGuide.ca

118

TheRentersGuide.ca

MY TOP ACCESSORY SHOPS

comes to accessorizing. If you have a minimalistic space and your taste is modern, try to suggest tension between one standout accessory and the rest of your décor. Juxtaposing an ornate mirror or vase – or even a lamp – to produce tension in your space will provide high contrast and generate a memorable design aesthetic. The key to apt execution is placement and proportion. Like everything else in design, plan ahead pull all your fabric swatches and floor plans together and bring them shopping with you. Having your floor plans or drawing will ensure you’re purchasing pieces that will actually fit into your space. However, it is the smallest details that will make the biggest impact. Show off your individuality by purchasing pieces that represent you and your lifestyle. I love unique pieces – whether it be the form of a vintage tray table or an abstract vase, anything to evoke conversation. Typically, it is these pieces, the smallest items in your space, which will make your room truly unique. Look for something unique by searching through fantastic vintage and consignment shops. You’re bound to find distinctive objects no one else carries. You can shop for anything from vintage glam to contemporary eye candy. Purchase pieces you love and TheRentersGuide.ca the best ones you can afford. This way they will always work for you and your home.
