When we were new immigrants 21 years back, we also rented a 1BR in Don Mills. The rent for 1BR then was just $700. A few months later, my mom-in-law was visiting so we moved to the next door 2BR apt that came up available. It was $900. Unbelievable that rent now has ballooned to that amount that feels like a mini mortgage.

Exactly, its in unbelievable how much the rent has changed our of report with inflation. I’m looking for a one bedroom now and the market is crazy to say the least 😕

Haha yeah trying to make it a bit dramatic 😂😂 Thank you, I did actually - I will show it in a later video. Thank you for watching and for your comment 🥰

woh, be careful with those NEW condo-apts, as they are not rent controlled. So after the 1 year lease, they can raise the rent to whatever they want. - Any apartment, house, condo, basement or mobile home that someone has lived in since before Nov. 15, 2018 is covered by rent control.

Yeah it’s true, thank you for your comment. I had no information about that before, but thank God I found an apartment I loved and with rent control. Thank you for the info!

@@eduinasdiary That's good, as it will be about 2.5% a year increase with rent control.

I’m surprised your cousin/realtor didn’t tell you: you need to have EVERYTHING with you when hunting for apartments - employment history, (proof of employment with pay slips, references, UTD credit report, cash or debit for first & last plus any extra fees, criminal background history - everything. Looks like you weren’t at all prepared to apply and/or sign on-the-spot. Seeing a place on Wednesday and not getting the paperwork until Friday - I knew instantly you lost that “dream apartment. It’s great to see videos like this with realistic budgets under $2K. I hope you ended up finding a great place!
@eduinasdiary9 ай бұрын
Yeah she told me and we had everything we could find as a newcomer of course. I lost the dream apartment because it was undisclosed from them that it wasn’t pet friendly and I was going to get my dog after a few months so it was not the best choice for me. It’s fine, I ended up finding a better place, a bit bigger and cheaper than that one so it turned out great. Thank you for your comment, appreciate it 🫶🏻

How do you get an apartment as a foreigner? No credit history, etc etc
@eduinasdiary7 ай бұрын
@@GutterFlower-t2uWell it’s a hell of a process, basically we created a big list of documents proving that I had enough money to pay the rent for a year, a contact from an employer I was working at the time and a written note from them saying that I am actually working there, a guarantor (somebody that says they will pay your rent if you don’t) etc etc. Pretty much anything that can convince them that you are a good citizen that will pay the rent on time, anything that would help to make a case 🙃
