RENTALS IN LONDON, ONTARIO, CANADA - What You Need To Know

[@jeanne21112]

I enjoyed your video. My husband came to Canada on a student visa 21 years ago this month. Lived in Hamilton at first, then Toronto, Guelph, Kitchener, Waterloo as we finished our degrees. But we settled over 10 years ago in London and he likes it here, plus it's a lot cheaper than the west coast or Toronto area. It's a good place to raise kids (we have 4).

[@PolvyStories]

I agreee. It's such a nice place to raise children. I love the urban lifestyle with a mix of small-town vibe. 😊 You have an inspiring story. Hopefully, we will be able to settle here in Canada for long- term too. :-)

Hi Polvy, thank you for sharing this. 😊this is what I need to know.

[@MuhammadRashid-ur7lu]

Excellent sharing

That view is beautiful.

Hi thanks for sharing! Very informative content for newcomers. Pls do share in your future vlogs your student experience in Fanshawe.. from taking bus rides, classes, time management, budget/allowance, expenses , study and work life balance. Thanks!

[@PolvyStories]

Yes, I'll be posting more videos about such topics. Thank you. 🤗

Hi, very good présentation, it really help to understand the différents types of housses and rent in London

[@rabiatoundamboket6118]

From what i've Heard for New comers with permanent résident, it wld not be easy bcose to pay six months it is too much

[@rabiatoundamboket6118]

I'm part of migrants with permanent résident, i'm planning to Land in London ending september, looking for 2 bedrooms pls Can u help us ? Thanks 🙏 for understanding

[@PolvyStories]

@@rabiatoundamboket6118 are you coming from another Canadian province? if yes, it would be easy if you already have a credit score. If you will be coming here from another country and don't have a job and a credit score yet, you can try to talk to locals for available 2-bedroom apartments and see if they can be flexible with the requirements. The big property managements here might require you to pay 6 months upfront if you don't have a credit score and a job yet.

[@msjnfamily4719]

Thanks for answering my previous question with this detailed video! Appreciate the tips 😊 We have the same considerations since we also hace 2 kids. And yes, we can be noisy too hehe What made you choose Fanshawe over other schools and locations? What program are you in? I am currently connecting with different schools for info so i can apply for LOA. Mostly BC schools but Fashawe is also part of my list.

[@PolvyStories]

Thank you for watching. Been also wanting to upload about this topic since last month but sched has been tight. Our first choice was BC but there was no available health care program for May intake so we chose Ontario (Conestoga vs Fanshawe). I didn't like Conestoga's fast-track program so I chose Fanshawe. London is a good place for newcomers 😊 Good luck. 😊

[@kekojas01]

I’m international student how can I get reasonable rent coz I’m confued about prices how do u think it costs ?

[@hazel85hazel]

May I know what Heath care course you attended in Fanshawe ?

[@chrisng4999]

Hello just wanted to ask if you could refer any apartment for rent, we are a couple arriving on December 7, 2022 and we need to have a place asap as Fanshawe needs a form to be submitted to them at least 7 business days before we travel thank you.

[@walterdellota4062]

Hi Polvy! Thanks for the info, this helps me a lot cos i’m now in the stage of looking where to rent. Also just wanted to connect with you cos Ill be in London for fall intake at fanshawe with my wife.

[@PolvyStories]

Hello! Wow welcome to London and welcome to Fanshawe! Which campus? It would be convenient if your house is near the campus because the commute here is not that easy most esp. if you're used to driving your own auto back in the PH. Hehe. I'll be posting a new video about it soon.

[@Quintaline]

Thanks alot for this video. How much is a one bedroom basement apartment in London ontario. Close amenities.

[@hobbylover3882]

Hi, I really enjoyed your video. My question is what are the average rental prices in London, ON for 2 bedroom apartment. Thank you.

[@PolvyStories]

An average 2-bedroom apartment in London is somewhere around 1600-2000 CAD. Good luck on your apartment hunting. :-)

[@aravindraj6443]

Can you help me to find a 1 bhk apartment for couples for 12 months

The occupancy standard is maximum of 2 persons per bedroom. You can confirm this with the landlord.

[@danicamationg4966]

Hi. I searched using Kijiji and rentals.ca then I went straight to the website of the property management.

[@josephinealabin9634]

thanks for this video, very helpful info. can you please suggest a property management. looking for apartment for fam 4.

[@PolvyStories]

Hi. Some of the property managements here are the CLV group, HOmestead, Sterling Karamar, Capreit, etc. :-)

[@gwethanaisabel2473]

Thank you for such a detailed explanation! for me I have cats I think it will be hard for us too, but Im hoping I could find one, and my considerations are the same as yours.

Hi po Maam. As ko lang. So yung kinuha nyong apartment is 2 bedrooms for a family of 4? Requirement po ba dyan sa London na kelangan 2 bedrooms pag family of 4?or pwede 1 bedroom apartment na. medyo mahal ata ang 2 BR. :)

[@allanjamescano2029]

how mch po yung 1 month rent sa airbnb? thanks!

[@christophercaparas7329]

Thanks for this informative video. May I know if how much is the proof of fund for a family of 4? Take care!

[@PolvyStories]

Hi! It's in the IRCC website but that's just the minimum fund. (In most cases, that excludes what you have to pay for the 1st-term tuition).

[@diaryofmommymichie]

Hello! Thank you for your videos. I can super relate with them because I'll be studying in Fanshawe next summer, and I will be bringing my spouse and 3 kids. Hope you can also share your living expenses as family of 4. Is it possible if only the OWP holder will work full-time to cover for the living expenses? Thanks so much in advance. :)

[@PolvyStories]

Yes, it's possible. I don't have a part-time job yet. Only the OWP is working and we can manage all the expenses. Sure, I'll vlog about it soon. :-)

[@diaryofmommymichie]

@@PolvyStories Looking forward to it. Thanks so much! :)

[@emilycarpena3013]

Sis San po Pwede mg-inquire kung May vacant na 2 BR dyan sa tinitirhan nyo na apartment? May malapit din ba na elementary school for kids?

[@PolvyStories]

You can call CLV group. Just search for their website. :-)

[@juato2777]

Great video and very informative!! My wife and I are planning on applying to Fanshawe for a post-graduate diploma. Do you know if it's easy to get an open work permit for your spouse while one is studying? Thank you in advance!

[@PolvyStories]

Are you planning to get her to apply first then you'll just follow after her approval? I think it's easier if you two will apply together if you're planning to also be here. But this is case to case basis and I'm not an immigration consultant. It's just a personal opinion based on what I've heard and read. Good luck on your application.

[@maleacarmenaraja]

Hi po! Been watching all your videos and subscribed to your channel as well. Ask lang po sana kami ng insights and help on finding an apartment there po, we're family of 4 din po with kids ages 7 and 4. Winter intake po ako so planning to look for an apartment before we arrive po sana kasi by that time sbrang lamig na daw so we're worried na if by the time na dumating pa lang kami jan maghahanap is baka mahirapan kami. Thanks for the help po in advance. 😘

[@Buragwit]

We are going there on aug for school, we are a couple. Can you please suggest where we can search online for a room. Thanks

[@PolvyStories]

For room rents, you can try joining Facebook groups about London Rentals. But be cautious and don't pay before signing a contract or seeing the place. Good luck!

[@Positive-canada-info]

Private room in home 1 guest1 bedroom1 bed1 shared bath, what did they means?

[@PolvyStories]

That means you will be renting just 1 room in the house and all the other areas are shared with other tenants or the landlord.

[@Positive-canada-info]

@@PolvyStories i through is only bathroom is shared with others

[@timotheuslaquindanum8338]

Very informative...one question po nag agent ba kayo paghanap ng unit?

[@PolvyStories]

Hello! Hindi po. We talked to an agent pero di kami sa kanga nakakuha ng apartment. We got our apartment by searching online.

[@cesarfernandozimmer1395]

Thanks for the video. We are interested on living and studying in London and rental is a good portion of your monthly costs. Are you or your husband studying at Fanshawe?

[@PolvyStories]

Hi! I am studying at Fanshawe. :-) I might post a video about it so that interested applicants will have an idea about what it's like to study in Fanshawe. :-)

[@iamraaach]

Coming to Canada this August with my husband and son. We’re interested about renting an apartment same with yours but is worried about their requirements since we just flew in. Would you know if they accept guarantors? Also, hope we can connect! :)

[@PolvyStories]

Yes, they accept guarantors within Canada. Wow congrats on the visa approval. 😊

Hi! I am incoming Fanshawe student in the south campus this Winter intake. Based on what I've seen in fb groups, it is quite harder to find rentals near the south campus. May I know which campus you are in and what program are you taking up? :)

Hi Maria, I’m incoming Fanshawe Student in south campus but Fall Intake. Yes, it’s quite challenging to look for a place near school with lots of considerations too. I ended up choosing farther - (2 bus rides )but bus stop is just right in front of house 😅. Planning to get license and wishing to own a car. I’m waiting for ms Polvy’s upcoming vlogs about that.. 😊
