Oh my god, that moonlight sonata-soundtrack to the staircase of doom 🤣 Perfect! i hope you will find home soon.

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.

[@eduinasdiary]

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 😕

[@billjohnson7904]

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.

[@eduinasdiary]

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!

[@billjohnson7904]

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

The first place looks better than where I live.

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!

[@eduinasdiary]

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 🫶🏻

[@ladymephisto1647]

@@eduinasdiary I’m so glad you found a good place!

[@GutterFlower-t2u]

How do you get an apartment as a foreigner? No credit history, etc etc

[@eduinasdiary]

@@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 🙃

[@flower_mound]

can't decide by that i must have layout of each 😅😢

[@eduinasdiary]

Yeah layout helps a lot, I’ll try to add layouts on the next video I’ll post with apartments. Thank you for your suggestion!
