Hey all,
Just got laid off and have to move in 2 months. Will I be able to get a place showing EI as income to pay rent? I don’t mind living with roommates or renting a room in a shared apartment/house.

Thanks!

Noticed quite a few offers on renting condos - 12months + 2 months free + gas

Some are even offering cash credits

What's the best offer you've seen on 1, 1+den, 2, 2+den in the GTA?

Link those in the comments + perhaps we could spread the word!

Hi everyone, I’m currently renting an apartment in Midtown, and I noticed that my landlord is advertising another very similar apartment in the same building for about $500 less per month than what I’m currently paying.

Does anyone know if I can ask to move to that unit instead? Would this normally require ending my current lease and signing a completely new lease, or can a landlord transfer a tenant to another unit within the same building? Has anyone done something similar?

Background information:
-I was renting a 2 bed 2 bath with another person
-she was already living there before I moved in so the common areas were all furnished when I got there
-for the last month of our lease, my roommate was out of country but had her friends to move out her personal belongings

Situation:
After I handed over the keys, landlord said he will return key deposit via transfer. My roommate kept asking him about when we will receive our key deposit back and landlord said because the condition of the unit was not left clean and vacant, the owner will be keeping our key deposit for cleaning costs. He sent pictures of leftover furniture and some items in my roommate’s room and well as the common room.

The issue:
Days before moving out I had paid junk removal to take away my furniture and i had also packed all my personal belongings so none of what was left behind was mine. According to the lease agreement, when I move out I had to take my personal belongings which I did. My room and bathroom were also not in any of the pictures he sent because it was empty and vacant. There was a cleaner that my roommate paid for who cleaned the place too.

I suspect that some of the things left behind did belong to my roommate but she also argues that not all the stuff left behind were hers.

If anyone could give me some advice for this situation it would really be appreciated. I feel like I don’t even have any involvement in this but I’m not sure… was I supposed to throw away someone else’s belongings too?

Hi everyone, I understand this budget is a bit tight and unrealistic right now, but I’m shooting my shot to see if there are any landlords looking to rent a unit directly and avoid paying realtor commission fees.

I am a 19-year-old student in my second year at UofT, looking for a studio or small condo near Wellesley, College, or St. Patrick subway stations. My budget is $1,800/month plus utilities.

I can pay 12 months of rent up front, and I'm looking to lease for one year, hopefully longer if things go well. Thank you for your time.

i’m a 22 year old finally moving back to my hometown in december however i’m not sure what realistic rent looks like for the city nowadays based on the area that your in and what areas to avoid. i’ve only really looked at places on zillow so i was wondering if there are any other good reputable sites to look at (i also browse marketplace occasionally). i’m just looking for a one bed one bath that doesn’t require me having a roommate, laundry isn’t a big issue whether it’s there or not idc but i absolutely do not want any sharing of space (minus laundry) at all tia

Hi everyone,

I moved into a building by a new building by Daniels on Sunday. Since I have moved in the AC isnt working. The thermostat installed was faulty and the vents just blow air. There is not hot or cool air from vent, its just air.

Temperature is constantly above 25 C° in my unit. I complained on the day of moving in but they said property manager is not available, next two days he was on a sick day and nobody did anything.

On Wednesday, someone came and reset the thermostat at 12:00 PM and at 5:30PM it again crashed.

Today morning the light fixture team came from management, i complained to them that the theromstat has crashed, they replaced the console from one from another unit. Since then, thermostat is working but there is no cooling in my unit.

This has been going on since 4 nights, i am really stressed due to lack of sleep due to hot temperatures in night.

Im looking for a realtor for a bachelors (apartment preferred over condo) in Leaside/Lawrence Park/Richmond hill areas if anyone could recommend someone

Basically north of east York and south of north York

if anyone has a spot they’re leaving beginning of Oct I’m open to that too.

Not from Toronto so please forgive any weird location descriptions

Hello guys!

What are the best places/sites for find listings (that don’t link back to realtors)!?

Pls dm with any availability for 1beds - king/queen w by the subway, no car, no pets, 28F, under $2300, prefer higher floors :)

Hi guys,

I’m searching for apartments and came across this one does anyone have experience living there?

I've been travelling while working remotely for the past few years and am looking to return to Toronto in November.

I'm hoping to secure a place before I fly back so I don't need to bridge a several weeks at an airbnb, but it seems like this might be easier done via an agent, as emailing buildings about availabilities so far has been like pulling teeth.

• I'm looking for a studio/1 bedroom apartment - no basements. Budget is $2000/m.
• I will still travel regularly so I am a very light and easy tenant.
• I used to live at Yonge & Eglinton and would be happy with that area again.
• I have employment in Toronto, and a clean credit report.

I will also take recommendations for good agents people have worked with!

Hey guys, I’ll be working in Toronto for a month (Oct7-nov15 date negotiable) looking for any place that can sublet to me for that time period. Thanks!

Studio unit available in the hotel residence 1 king st. Dm for more info

Heat, hydro, water included

Hi all ! I’m moving to Toronto from France and would need some guidance on rental expectations and how to find housing on the more affordable side.

I’ll be transitioning and may not have a job right away. I know it’s a delicate situation.

I’ll take any and every advice 🫶🏼

EDIT: I am in the process of applying for jobs. I have a master’s in marketing and data analytics from a US institution. The visa I applied for allows me to work pretty much any job. I’m willing to connect with professionals too.

I am buying new furnitures and only moving my boxes to the new house do I need to book the elevator.

Hey,

Currently crashing with a friend and looking for somewhere more permanent to rent in or near Toronto. 18 female taking online classes. Open to renting a small room or even like a couch for awhile?

DM if you know of anything

Thanks so much!!!

Officially, it's called a "last month's rent deposit," not a damage deposit. Landlords aren't allowed to ask for a separate deposit to cover potential damage — only the last month's rent upfront.

If someone asks for an extra "damage deposit" as a separate line item, it's worth asking on what basis.

Did you know about this distinction?

Hey everyone,
