the struggle is real for renters... the authors write up is both slightly humorous as well as brutally honest.... renting in Toronto is a challenge to say the least...

tenancy matters pt 6 payment of your monthly rent can my landlord require me to provide post dated cheques? the answer is :NO... as a tenant, your obligations are to pay the rent In full and on time, in whatever method you choose; landlords are obligated to be flexible to the method of payment the tenant chooses contact me if you have any further questions regarding your tenancy matters 4168433420 [email protected] #tenancymatters #tenancy #rent #lease #leaselife #remaxhallmark #treb #realtor #torontorealestate #forrent #forlease #livehere #buyhere #landlord #tenant #toronto #torontorental See more

Condos continue to dominate the market !

pt5*tenancy matters* are landlords allowed to restrict tenants from having a pet? no, landlords CAN NOT restrict a tenant from having a pet- any no pet provision on a lease is considered void, as it contradicts the residential tenancy act HOWEVER.... If the tenant is renting a property with multiple rental units (shared heating and cooling systems), and the pet causes allergies and interferes with their reasonable enjoyment of the property, then this... pet can be disallowed. the only other reasons a tenant may not be allowed to rent a space with their pet(s) pet is not legal in municipality or building (some buildings have rules which restrict pets all together - based on weight of pet, and number of pets per unit) - these building rules (by-laws)are acceptable as per the residential tenancy act and can be enforced both by buildings and landlords. #tenancymatters #remaxhallmark #treb #realtor #torontorealestate #melissaperryhomes #rent #lease #buy #sell #invest #landlord #tenant #realtor #rentallife #remax #pets #tenantswithpets #petlovers #doglover #catlover #condo #condolife #condowithpet #condorestriction #condobylaws #petrestrictions #tenantrights See more

Condo prices are still climbing. Will 2019 have a market slow down? In my opinion, I don't think there will be. As demand continues to thrive, this will keep housing prices steady.

#tenancymatters pt4 ******** MY Apologies that some of the content was cut off - Here's what was said after the cut off**** "It is actually pre-paid rent. Some other examples of deposits that are not allowed that many landlords do ask for are pet deposits, damage deposits, utility deposits, and additional pre-paid months of rent. Now it's very important to note that these types of deposits are in contradiction to the Residential Tenancy Act and they can not be forced upon a ...Tenant to pay. However if a tenant chooses to volunteer these deposits, then they can do as such however if the Landlord has forced the Tenant into providing these deposits, the tenant can apply to the Landlord and Tenant board to have these deposits returned to them - It's within their rights. So I hope you have learned something about deposits and what's legal in Ontario. Feel free to address any questions with me if you have any. You can contact me through private message or text at 416 843 3420. I look forward to my next video with a whole new topic. Talk to you next week. Bye!" Know your tenancy rights DEPOSITS what’s allowed vs what’s not last month pet damage utility extra pre-paid rent tenants are Allowed to voluntarily provide whatever deposits they would like, but can not be forced by a landlord to provide such illegal deposits as determined by the RTA(Ontario) Contact me with questions or concerns!

Entry level detached homes in most regions priced between $600,000 - $900,000 have seen growth of approximately 22% since June of this year.... If you were waiting for prices to continue to decline, that ship has sailed. If you've been thinking about transitioning into home-ownership, get in before prices continue to increase!

It will always be a hot topic In Toronto - but I do not think it’s an issue that politicians Can address. In my opinion, without a housing crash, housing will not become more affordable

I am a HUGE FAN Harry Fine, a local paralegal specializing In landlord and tenant matters. I consider Everything that leaves his mouth to be gold. He raises amazing point after amazing point!

Tenants blame a local agent for his involvement in selling owners properties which previously offered affordable housing to tenants. After they are sold, many of these units leave the rental pool completely as it’s no longer profitable for landlords to keep these properties. Rather than operate at a loss, they liquidate altogether. He is hired to to a job; sell the owners property. He does not control who the new buyer is and what their intention as a rightful buyer is, so wh...en many properties leave the rental pool, it is at no fault of his, or any other realtor for that matter! With the increasing cost to purchase properties in Toronto, it’s no longer as appealing to be a small landlord. We will continue to see rental properties sold and fewer affordable rental properties available. He is a scapegoat caught in Toronto’s rental crisis. See more

With vacancies continuing to sit at all time low rates in the city, we have been continuing to see prices of rental properties increase substantially year over year. But what does this mean for "would be" or "could be" buyers? It can sometimes equate to the price of rent being close to the price of owning. Contact me if you'd like to be your own landlord, rather than pay someone else's mortgage - I work with amazing professionals who can help guide you on the financial path to home ownership!

It looks like prices are on their way back up across the GTA After a Slight Cool Down in Late 2017 Let me know if you have any questions And I'd be Happy to Assist!

wow family of 5 in a 776 sq ft, 1+den/1 washroom - i suddenly feel like I take my home space for granted ! This family has a high priority towards their neighbourhood and experiences more than possessions and that’s why they can make the small space work.

The market climate has changed in the last year after the Provincial Liberals implemented some new policies regarding rental properties and foreign buyers. Many think that this caused a crash, or a bubble to burst... but did it really? What it DID result in, was more of a market "correction" or a "balancing" which resulted in stats being quite similar to those we saw in 2016 (So essentially if the first half of 2017 had never existed), we would not have a crazy spike on our... sales trends, and the graph would resemble the type of gradual increases we'd been seeing for a very long time... So... are we in a Buyers or Sellers market in the Toronto area? or a balanced market? That all depends what neighbourhood you're in, or what neighbourhood you want to be in. Most of Toronto is still in a sellers market, with some areas in a hot sellers market ( often with multiple offers on properties, resulting in offers being accepted without conditions and over asking price). Some of Toronto is in a more balanced market as well. And the 905 is also seeing a balanced market, with some areas closer to a buyers market, but overall, the GTA is NOT in a buyers market!! Check out this short article so you can find out what exactly is the difference between these 3 terms!

breakups and divorce When couples decide to split, it often leaves both people leaving the relationship unable to continue to afford homeownership without making major compromises - extreme downsizing (IF they qualify for a mortgage alone), drastic relocation or having assistance from family to qualify for lending. Heartbreak isn’t just the mourning of a lost relationship; can also be the loss of a beloved home.... Read this article to see how some have coped through this process

May stats have just been released ! The average Property (freehold and condo) sold for $805,320$. This shows a 6.6% decline year over year ! Number of sales are down 22.2% year over year.

Thoughts? Should marijuana be banned in common areas of condo buildings, inside the units, or both ? If you own, (or are thinking of owning), a condo, this is a great (and quick) read. Marijuana could affect how you enjoy your condo - If you're a condo owner, this could affect you. If your condo board already has already implemented rules regarding this, that's great, but many condo corps have not - Let your board know (through the Manager), if this will affect you. Voice your concerns if you have them
