who’s in holiday mode? Or should I ask who isn’t?
The halls of every mall are decked and Christmas music is floating through the air in nearly every restaurant and store. Many apartment
buildings get into the spirit of the season with some decorations – some communities even arrange for tenant gatherings and festivities. For some it’s a deeply religious time of year, for others it’s not. But it’s not just about Christmas, it’s about community.
If you want to decorate, just find out what your building permits. Some management companies will encourage you to add your own personal touches to decorative installations in common areas. Some reserve the common area decorations to company-approved and owned items. Some buildings allow you to put a wreath on your door while others prefer you limit your festive decorations to the inside of your suite.
This time of year isn’t just Christmas, it’s Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Winter Solstice, Festivus and more – lots of different celebrations this time of year, with some people that don’t celebrate anything. Some buildings recognize and decorate by sticking with a winter theme, others incorporate different traditions. There is no reason you can’t approach the property management and ask whether you can share your traditions too.
For me, this time of year isn’t about a specific holiday, it’s about enjoying, sharing, recognizing all that’s happened in the year that’s coming to a close. Whatever your traditions are, make it a time of sharing and warmth, and include those in your community.
It’s also a great time of year to find that new apartment. Find the perfect home, we’re here to help! Our magazine and website, plus RentersGuide.ca and our new Renters Guide app, offer the best selection of available apartments as well as great articles and advice, making it easy to make your move!

WHEN LOOKING FOR RENTAL ACCOMMODATIONS, PARTICULARLY IN AN AREA THAT’S UNFAMILIAR TO YOU, IT’S WISE TO USE EVERY RESOURCE AVAILABLE TO FIND AN APARTMENT THAT IS WITHIN YOUR BUDGET AND FULFILLS YOUR LIFESTYLE NEEDS.Nowadays, a growing number of rental-housing consumers are using the Internet, as their information search source for locating an apartment. If you're moving to a new city or town, most provinces and local municipalities have general information websites with links that provide a direct click to available rental information sites in the area, Once you arrive at the selected sites, you can generally click on the type of apartment and location you’re looking for, and do some preliminary ‘shopping’ online. The benefit to online listings is that they are generally kept current.
Well-respected media such as Renters Guide and homeTRADER.ca can also be a big help. These sources are widely used by apartment-shoppers. Word-of-mouth continues to be a great method to find a good apartment at a reasonable rate. Ask family members, colleagues and friends if they know of good rentals available in the area where you want to live. If you’ve located an apartment and wonder what it’s like to live there, ask tenants who enter or leave the building for their opinions. Other important considerations for any savvy apartment seeker are the quality of the home you plan to select and the quality of service you will receive once you have selected your chosen area.
Now, there is an effective tool to help you find the perfect apartment and enjoy increased peace of mind in your decision – the Certified Rental Building Program (CRBP).
The first of its kind in North America, the program from the Federation of Rental-Housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO) promotes best practices when it comes to operating apartment buildings in Ontario. A CRBP building is well run and well managed. It is in good repair and the management ensures that the required safety standards are met. Property owners and managers in this program follow FRPO’s established Standards of Practice, which help to establish and maintain a high quality of life for renters.
You can use the CRBP in three different ways. Certified buildings all display the program’s seal of approval, so you can see whether the buildings that you are considering have that on hand. You can also visit the website www.crbprogram.org, where you can search for an apartment in a certified building by geographic location, name or the management company. If you have located a building in one of the other ways mentioned above, you would be wise to check the CRB Program website to check and see whether the building has passed the certification process.
Either way, this new “quality assurance” standard can help you make your final decision with confidence. To be certified, apartment owners/applicants must agree to maintain a certain standard in areas such as Human Rights Code, tenant servicing, fire and building code compliance, staff training policies, proper safety procedures, information and privacy law compliance, financial management, insurance, and employee relations. The program is audited by the well-respected third-party auditors J.D. Power & Associates. There is also a mandatory training and education component that all property management staff must complete.

YOU WANT A NEW APARTMENT. YOU GIVE NOTICE. YOU HUNT. You find. You put down your deposit. But then, the emails stop. The keys don’t arrive. The apartment is occupied by someone else.You’ve been scammed. The first thing you need to do is contact the police.rental scam man sitting on the couch with box upset talking on the phone
Rental scams are a crime of opportunity. With record low vacancy rates across Canada, there is a huge demand for apartments, and it outweighs supply. Beyond that, affordable rentals become even more sparse. Renters who are under tight budgets and short timelines are very vulnerable – but with scams becoming more sophisticated, it’s wise for all renters to act cautiously.
Scammers are looking for an easy target. When your budget is tight and you’re offered a good deal it can seem like a windfall. That’s when you’ve got to be most careful – stop and ask yourself, “Is this too good to be true?” Is it a large family apartment that comes in well under budget? Is it an upscale property that seems to be priced too low? Don’t think this is a limited problem – it’s happening across the country, from big city centres to small towns.
How do you avoid rental scams?
Look for red flags. If you’re conducting your search online, be wary of anything that seems under market value. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Rental scams have to be appealing to attract a lot of interest.
Be especially cautious if the person renting the apartment doesn’t want to show you the property or wants to conduct the entire transaction online, without meeting.
Don’t ever wire money to a person you’ve never met for an apartment you’ve never seen.
Don’t let anyone rush you into a decision.
If you’re searching for an apartment remotely, try to find a friend that can visit the apartment for you. You may even want to resort to using an agent.
You want to go see the property, meet the landlord or property management and look at the actual property that is being rented. The property manager will meet you in the rental office – be leery of anyone who refuses to use the rental office for the paperwork.
If you are interested, fill out the paperwork and make sure to use a cheque, credit card or PayPal. These are traceable and scammers prefer to leave no trail.
If you have to pay a deposit of cash, do not hand over cash without a receipt, and be cautious if you’re asked to wire money. Wire transfers are usually a big, red flag.
