<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">One
of the main differences between owning and renting a place is that there are
limitations to how much you can change in your rental, while you can do
anything you want if you own your home. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However,
there are still some ways for you to </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/03/giving-your-apartment-non-permanent.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">renovate</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"> your rental without breaking your
lease. That's precisely what we're here today to talk about, so let's take a
look at what you can do to stay on the right side of the law and your
landlord’s good side.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN">Which Renovations Can I Do in
a Rental Apartment?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">When
it comes to renovations in rentals, the unfortunate case with most parts of
Canada is that they are very hard to pull off. Some would even go as far as to
say that they are notoriously difficult. That's because too many local laws
exist that are usually in favor of the landlord, at least when it comes to
damage and changes within the rental unit. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">What's
more, you have to be careful with how much money you spend because you are
unlikely to stay in the rental long enough to warrant all the money
invested.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">With
so much trouble involved, most tenants give up and decide to do some simple
make-overs or some </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2017/02/how-to-green-your-rental.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">greening up of the place</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Now,
if you truly want to make renovations, you have to stick to changing things
that won’t damage the property. What’s more, you need to be careful not to
damage the landlord’s items within the property. If the rental comes furnished,
you can’t simply throw out stuff or make irreversible changes. You have to be
careful that your renovations are minimal and don’t cause damage. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Admittedly,
this is hard to achieve and doesn’t offer much wiggle room for sizable changes,
but it’s not impossible. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However,
if you want to make sure that everything goes well and that you don’t break the
lease, all you need to do is talk with the landlord. If you’re already on </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2017/07/how-to-be-great-tenant.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">good terms with the landlord</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">, then this shouldn’t
be a problem. All you need to do is be good at convincing them. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">You'd
be surprised how good landlords can be if you're kind to them. However,
renovations are scary for them as they usually fear that the tenant will do
damages that will take a lot of work to fix. However, you can still convince
them by explaining how your renovations will increase the value of the rental.
If you manage to do that and let them know that the renovations will be
entirely hassle-free for them, then you'll likely succeed at convincing them to
give you permission. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_gjdgxs"></a><span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">As you can see, even though making sizable
renovations is next to impossible in rentals, you can still do something. All
you need to do is be careful and talk things through with your landlord.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The
rental market is a competitive one in Canada, so it's essential for you to do
your best to stand out. If you've set your eyes on a specific apartment that
seems like a place from your dreams, you will need to write a stellar rental
application.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">We
wanted to help you out with that by giving you some advice on how to write a
tremendous rental application. Let's take a look at all the things you can do:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%;">Tips on How to Write a Successful Rental Application<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If
you're first meeting the landlord online, make sure your email is brief and
professional. Double-check for spelling and grammar errors and focus on
providing vital details about yourself. Transfer this mode of writing to the
actual application later on.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">While
writing the application, it's important to give the landlord some essential
information about your personality and what kind of person you are. Yes,
personal information is important (and so is the proper documentation, don't
forget that!), but that's just data about you. The landlord will want to know
you as a person so they can judge you from the start and separate you from the
rest of the pack.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%;">What Makes a Stellar Rental Application?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">A
stellar application is one that's genuinely </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/12/how-to-increase-chances-of-your-rental.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">different from the rest</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">. That’s precisely why
it’s not all about the application itself – it’s also about what you add to it.
<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">That
means that a cover letter should be included. Yes, a landlord will rarely ask
for a cover letter that goes with the application, but that doesn't mean that
you can't dazzle them with one. As long as you can keep it relatively short,
to-the-point, and accurate, they are unlikely to mind it. What’s more, they’ll
love it if it’s well written. Make sure you also include the following
information to prove you’re willing to go above and beyond:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">You

telling them what they want to hear, not what you think is good, and as long as
that’s accurate, you’ll do great. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Besides
the cover letter, it would be good to include some great references from your
previous landlords. If you don't have any, you should include recommendations
from some reliable people like your employer or some other professional with an
important job title who can vouch for you. And don't use references from
friends and family.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In
the end, don’t forget to make a great first impression once you meet the

<span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a; font-size: 18pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span> </h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;">As each building has a different number of
floors, we'll tell you about the advantages and downsides of living in three
specific areas in an apartment building: the top, middle, and bottom levels. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;"><o:p> </o:p></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<h4 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
The top floors</h4>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman";">

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;">The
general rule is that the higher you go in an apartment building, the higher the
rent becomes. That's why the top floors are usually the most expensive ones and
the ones where the cooling is also the most costly, as heat rises. But that
also means that you won't have to worry too much about the heating during the
winter. Unfortunately, in most areas of Canada as it’s very cold during the
winter, the top floors are often colder than in other places. That’s why it’s
important to look for top floor apartments that are well insulated. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

also offer </span><span lang="EN"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/08/security-tips-for-renters.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #4a6ee0;">more security</span></a><span style="color: #0e101a;">, a
lot less noise, more sunlight, and fewer pests and other critters. Some have
balconies, which is definitely something worth considering. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

The middle floors</h4>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;"><o:p> </o:p></span></b></span></b></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman";">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;">The
middle floors are usually the best option when all things are considered. If
you worry about your bills, the rent, and reaching your level daily, then the
middle is always the best option. It's right in between two extremes, which is
what makes it the most appealing choice. What’s more, they can be as exclusive
as top floor apartments in some cases, especially when they have balconies.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;">The
only real downside is that the middle floors tend to have </span><span lang="EN"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/05/how-to-deal-with-noisy-and-loud.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #4a6ee0;">more noise</span></a><span style="color: #0e101a;"> than
all the others as you have more neighbors and more foot traffic.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">

</span></span></span></div>
<h4 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
The bottom floors<o:p></o:p></h4>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;">As
you can already guess, the access to apartments on the bottom floors is the
best. Furthermore, these apartments tend to have the lowest rent as well.
However, the noise tends to be very high on these floors, as well as the number
of </span><span lang="EN"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/01/keeping-pests-out-of-your-apartment.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #4a6ee0;">pests and critters</span></a><span style="color: #0e101a;">.

<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;">In
the end, if you worry about security, the unfortunate truth is that the lower
you are in an apartment building, the less safe you are. However, it all
depends on how safe your area is, so if it's already very secure, you won't
have to worry about security as much. Also, if the building has a great yard,
the lack of a balcony doesn’t have to be a problem.</span></span></span></span></span></span></div>

in an apartment that you don't own comes with many benefits, but it also comes

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">Naturally,
these causes are not always as black and white as one might expect. Even the
nonpayment of rent is not always as straightforward as it sounds. For example,
if your landlord doesn't respect the lease you both signed, you can apply to
the board for rent abatement. Unfortunately, you cannot stop paying rent
altogether as the landlord will still have the right to evict you. So remember,
the first step is rent abatement, and if you’re having too big of an issue with
your landlord, you should consider hiring a lawyer. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN" style="color: #0e101a;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">In
essence, as long as you respect the lease, there will rarely be any reasons for
your landlord to evict you. That makes reading your lease a thing you
absolutely have to do – especially before you sign it. It's entirely
understandable to ask your landlord for some time to review your contract
carefully, even if they state that it's just like all other leases. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

there are more things on the lease, but most tenants who end up breaking it,
usually break one of these rules. However, you should know that this also
depends on the local laws. If the rules in the lease contradict the laws, you
cannot be evicted for breaking those rules as they are not legal.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

when it comes to property damage, it's almost always black and white. If the
damage is intentional – it's your fault. However, you should know that most of
the damage a tenant does is considered deliberate. That's why you need to be
careful not to cause any significant damage to the rental. If something small
happens by accident, you should tell your landlord and let them know that
you're willing to repair it. If it's minimal, most landlords won't be mad and
won't ask you to fix it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

The tenant receives a cleaned apartment, and they need to leave it in the same condition when they leave. That essentially means that you have to do a thorough cleaning of the place. </span></div>

What's more, it can even get dangerous due to ice and cold weather.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<h3 style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Best Time to Start Shoveling Snow</span></h3>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

Many will tell you that there is no point in doing it until there's enough of it. Most people will tell you that you don't need to do it if the blizzard hasn't ended. Some will even tell you that there is a precise date when it's best to shovel snow.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So, who is right here? Well, no one, because none of these people have considered the fact that there is a lot more to it if you want to be genuinely effective and if you're looking to avoid getting injured. As we're sure that you want to prevent injuries and be as effective as possible to avoid having to do it all over again very soon, here are a few tips that should help:</span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">There is no point in waiting for the snow to accumulate as the snow beneath likely will freeze, and you'll have a much harder time to shovel it.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">You shouldn’t start shoveling snow as soon as some of it has accumulated. It’s best to shovel snow as soon as the first snowfall has stopped. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Avoid shoveling in low light and during a blizzard.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Always look to start shoveling snow early in the day to prevent it from building up later.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">You don't have to shovel at all if the snow level is very low, and there is enough sunlight that will melt it very soon. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Never start shoveling snow right after you’ve eaten or had a smoke. </span></li>
</ul>
<h3 style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">How to Shovel Snow</span></h3>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Now that you know when the best time to start shoveling snow is, all that’s left for you to do is to do it! We can aid you in that as well as there are several tips that can help you do it effectively and thus much faster than usual.</span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Always dress appropriately. Your age and level of fitness are irrelevant here, as cold weather can be harmful to anyone.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Never rush through the shoveling. A lot of injuries occur from shoveling, and they are more common when compared with other activities. It's best to go easy and take enough breaks. You can even stretch before you start to prevent muscle cramps.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Drink enough water to stay hydrated while shoveling.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Use a shovel without a sticking surface or spray it with a silicone lubricant as that prevents the snow from sticking to shovel, and you'll have a much easier time shoveling.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Shovel in one direction and always have a specific place where you’ll throw away the snow.</span></li>
</ul>
<h3 style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Bottom Line</span></h3>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

If you take the time to heed this advice, you’ll find that shoveling snow can be a much easier task than most people feel it is.</span></div>

A common issue in homes during freezing winters are freezing pipes. Some are not even aware, but the pipes in your apartment can't easily freeze if the temperature on the outside is constantly below zero. This, on its own, might not be as big of an issue were it not for the fact that frozen pipes can easily burst. If you didn't know, bursting pipes are one of the most common property damage causes during winters. </span></div>

Let’s have a look:</span></div>
<h3 style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Everything You Can Do to Prevent Freezing Pipes</span></h3>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Every time the temperature outside falls below zero, you need to start implementing specific measures to protect your pipes from freezing. </span></div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Keep the heat up! It's vital to have your heating system on as the inside temperature needs to be sufficiently up to protect the plumbing in the walls from being affected by the cold temperature from the outside.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Don’t try </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">to </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/01/how-to-reduce-your-energy-bills.html" style="font-family: "Noto Sans Symbols", sans-serif; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="color: #0563c1; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">save money on your bills</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> by </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">turning the thermostat down during the night. That difference in temperature can be the cause of frozen pipes, so it’s vital to keep the temperature constant 24/7.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you are going away for a while (on vacation, for example), keep the heating on. You don't need to keep the home warm; just put the thermostat to 13 degrees, at least. That's enough to keep the pipes from freezing. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Allow warm air to circulate the plumbing by opening kitchen and bathroom cabinet doors. If significant parts of your plumbing are within an exterior wall, then this is a must-do thing to prevent them from freezing.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Let the faucet drip from time to time. It might sound like a weird suggestion, but it's actually the pressure that causes the pipes to burst, not the temperature. By keeping your faucets open a bit, you are effectively preventing pressure from building up in the pipes.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Seal all holes and cracks around the areas where pipes go through the walls into the interior of the apartment. If you leave these areas open, you allow cold air to circulate freely within the walls. If you can, you should do this on the exterior side of the wall as well.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Apply heating tape to pipes at a high risk of freezing. Naturally, you should do this only if you can access these pipes. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you’re looking for protection in the long-run, then you should invest in insulation, especially in houses. </span></li>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">When
renting an apartment, it's vital to try to keep your costs minimal. The rent is
always a big part of your monthly income, and it's fixed, so it's best to try
to save money on other things. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Instead
of eating less or buying less of the things you want and need, you can also </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/01/how-to-reduce-your-energy-bills.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">save on bills</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">. Sometimes, this solution is
much better, as you'll be consistently saving every month. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">With
that in mind, we wanted to give you a list of energy-saving appliances you
should consider getting if you're going to save money in the long run. Let's
take a look:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN">LED, CFL, or Halogen
Incandescent Lightbulbs<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">On
average, most households spend around 5% of their energy on lighting. It sounds
small, but it adds up when you combine it with other energy-saving methods.
Plus, it's not really a problem to get any of these energy-saving lightbulbs.
Yes, they are more expensive than regular ones, but they last much longer and
consume less electricity. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If
you opt for the best option, which is LED lightbulbs, you'll spend 75% less
energy on your lighting needs than you usually do! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN">Energy-Saving Kitchen and
Bathroom Appliances<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The
kitchen is usually packed with appliances that suck up a lot of your monthly
energy usage. If you cook a lot, you're probably spending even more than you
think. The same goes for the bathroom.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Instead
of doing a minimal amount of cooking and washing, you can get new </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/03/tips-on-how-to-reduce-hydro-bills-if.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">energy-saving</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"> appliances.

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Each
of these spends from 10% to as much as 50% less than their non-energy-saving
counterparts. When all of that is combined, you can see a drastic decrease in
your </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2016/12/how-to-reduce-your-monthly-rent-expenses.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">monthly expenses.</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">You
can even get air purifiers and dehumidifiers that are energy-saving and save
even more on your bills.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN">Energy-Saving Electronics<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Consumer
electronics amount to as much as 15% of the total household electricity use.
What’s more, that number is only growing as we are all increasingly using these
devices (smartphones, laptops, desktop computers, TVs, etc.).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">When
buying any of these devices, it's essential to take a look at the amount of
electricity they use. Then you can opt for the version that sucks up less
energy.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN">Key Takeaways<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If
you manage to get all of these appliances, or at least as many as you can,
you'll end up saving thousands of dollars each year on your energy bills.
That's, without a doubt, a very significant amount of money, so it ends up
being entirely worth it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">You
don’t have to get all of the appliances listed here right away. That will
probably end up costing you more than you will eventually save. The key is to
always opt for an energy-saving appliance or device whenever you have to buy a
new one. Eventually, most of your appliances will be energy-saving ones, and
you’ll be saving a lot every month.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If
you're searching for a rental apartment, you're bound to run into a well-known
situation that begins with finding the perfect place. Everything is in order,
and you want to move in immediately. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">There’s
just one problem: there are other applicants as well. You know you'll be
devastated if the landlord eventually picks someone else, and you know there's
nothing you can do to change the outcome. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However,
there are ways of increasing your chances. That’s precisely what we wanted to
discuss in today’s piece. Let’s see what you need to do to increase your
chances of the landlord picking your application.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><o:p></o:p></span></span> </div>
<h3>
<span lang="EN">Know What the Landlord Wants
from the Tenant<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If
you want to increase your chances, you need to provide what the landlord is
looking for in a tenant. In our many years of experience, we've noticed that
landlords always want three things:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<ol start="1" style="margin-top: 0in;" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo2;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">To know that the tenant will treat the property as if it was their
own and call the landlord when any </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/02/who-is-responsible-for-specific.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">issues occur</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">.<o:p></o:p></span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo2;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">To be sure that the tenant will make their rent payments on time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo2;"><span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">To be certain that the tenant will fulfill the term of the lease.<o:p></o:p></span></span></li>
</ol>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Now,
we know that you will say that you can definitely do all three. We know that,
but the landlord doesn't. You need to find a way to assure them that they can
expect these three important things from you. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">What
landlords care about is stability, as all of these three things point out. It
doesn't matter what your application looks like and what it says. What matters
is that they can see that you will provide them with the stability they want.
It's far easier for them to find a single tenant who will pay their rent on
time, take care of the place, and be a stable source of income for the landlord
for a long time, rather than running from tenant to tenant. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_gjdgxs"></a><span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Additionally, if you have recommendation

<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If

need to do is prove to the landlord that you will be </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/01/how-to-reduce-your-energy-bills.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">able to pay your rent</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">. By getting a suitable
guarantor who is willing to show their income to the landlord, it will be
almost the same as having that income yourself. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN"><span style="font-family: Arial;">At
the end of the day, all the landlord wants is to feel safe and happy with the

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">You want to be the best tenant and never
have any problems with the landlord, but some issues still occur from time to
time. Most of the time, these problems happen due to a lack of knowledge on the
part of the tenant or landlord, or maybe both.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The same thing can be said about simple
chores like raking the leaves. If you’re here, then you're probably not aware
of whose responsibility this is. That’s precisely why we wanted to help you out
by explaining who is responsible for raking the leaves in Ontario and British
Columbia, as well as the rest of Canada. Let's take a look:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<h3>
<span lang="EN-US">Is
the Tenant Responsible for Raking the Leaves in Ontario?</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Winter is coming, and there are so many
things that need to be done in the way of making sure you’re safe and </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/12/4-ways-to-winter-proof-your-apartment.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">warm inside</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">. Raking the leaves outside of the
building is probably the last thing you want to do. But do you have to do it?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If you live in Ontario – you don't. Ontario
is the most tenant-friendly province of Canada, and the landlord does almost
every chore that has to be done if it involves the common areas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However, there's more to it than that. If
you rent a whole building (a house, a duplex, or similar), then what's usually
considered the common area is used exclusively by you. When you or your family
are the only ones who use it, then the law requires the tenant to rake the
leaves, remove the snow, and all similar chores in the way of maintenance. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Additionally, if the tenant lives in a
multi-tenant building, the landlord can change these rules and put the
responsibility on the tenant’s shoulders. As long as they prepare a separate
agreement that is signed by both parties, the rules are changed, and raking the
leaves is now </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/02/who-is-responsible-for-specific.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">your responsibility</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Is
the Tenant Responsible for Raking the Leaves in British Columbia?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The same rules apply in British Columbia
and all other provinces and territories of Canada. Unless the lease or other
agreement states otherwise, the landlord is always responsible for all
maintenance of a multi-residential unit. It's only the tenant's duty when they
exclusively use the area in question. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_gjdgxs"></a><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In general, most of
these things won't be a problem for you as long as you and your landlord have a
kind and respectful relationship. Most landlords in Canada are good and won't
try to abuse their power. However, if they do, it's best to avoid confrontation
and to try and resolve the situation peacefully. When all of that fails, you
should contact the proper authorities and let them handle the situation
according to the law. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Winter is a tough season. You need to work
hard on </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/02/how-to-survive-winter-in-your-apartment.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">surviving it in your apartment</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">, and you don't
need additional stress like snow removal. However, it can be an even greater
stress if it's an obligation, a job that you have to do according to the law.
If you don't, the consequences will end up being an even bigger problem than
the task itself.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">It has happened more than once, that
tenants and landlords went to court over such small issues. For example, in one
case from 2002, a tenant slipped on the walkway to her basement apartment and
decided to sue her landlord. However, because the lease stated that it was her
job to clean the snow, the landlord wasn’t charged.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">With such things happening from time to
time, we wanted to give you detailed information on whether or not you need to
do it if you live either in Ontario or Alberta. Let’s take a look:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Is
the Tenant Responsible for Snow Removal in Ontario?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The case we previously mentioned occurred
in Ontario. It was later taken to the Court of Appeal, and the decision was
altered to the tenant's favor. Why? Because according to the law in Ontario,
snow removal is the landlord's obligation. If they want to delegate the duty to
a tenant, they have to prepare and sign a separate agreement (outside of the
lease), where it's clearly stated that the landlord will pay the tenant for
snow removal outside of the building. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">So, unless you sign a specific agreement
and get paid for it, you, as the tenant, are not responsible for snow removal
in Ontario. Now you don’t have to worry about slipping outside of your
apartment while you </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/12/how-to-commute-by-bike-in-winter.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">commute to work</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"> and then having to pay for
everything yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Additionally, it’s worth it to know that
according to section 26 of Ontario Regulation 517, it’s the landlord’s job to
maintain the common areas in their building, not the tenants’. However, even if
the landlord doesn’t respect this, you cannot withhold rent to get them to
comply. It’s best to resolve this amicably. If that fails, you can then contact
the Landlord and Tenant Board and let them handle the situation. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<h3>
<span lang="EN-US">Is
the Tenant Responsible for Snow Removal in Alberta?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Pretty much the same thing goes for Alberta
and most other provinces and territories in Canada. If the area belongs to the
landlord and is for the use of all tenants, the landlord must maintain it,
which always includes snow removal.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However, if the landlord rents a building
to a single tenant or family (like a house or a duplex), as long as they have
exclusive use of the yard and walkway around the building, then the tenant must
maintain it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_gjdgxs"></a><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Naturally, all of
these rules can be changed, as long as both parties agree and sign agreements.
Our advice is always to know what your duties are as a tenant and be respectful
to your landlord, and we are positive that they will do the same for you. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">For those of you who love </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2017/04/gardening-in-small-spaces.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">taking care of plants</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">, we are sure you like
having them on the balcony as well. However, the problem with this usually lies
in the fact that they can die out during the cold winter months.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In this article, we wanted to give you some
advice and tips on how you can take care of those plants in the winter. If you
do everything right, and with a little bit of luck, your balcony plants will be
completely fine, no matter the cold!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">How
to Be Good at Winter Gardening<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In the past, only people with big gardens
were able to have plants. Today, it’s all very different as even people in
apartments can keep plants all year round. That’s especially true for people
with balconies.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">What’s more, you can grow annuals,
perennials, small trees, shrubs, and even </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/search?q=plant" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">vegetables</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;">
in your apartment today! You only need to learn how. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">First of all, you need to know which pots
are right for your plants. You should know that materials like concrete,
ceramic, and terra cotta are not going to do well in the cold. It’s best to opt
for fiberglass or polyethylene pots with drainage holes. These materials don't
only survive the cold, but they are also more practical as they are very
lightweight. Additionally, you should make sure that your pots are some 18 to
24 inches wide as plants do better in larger containers. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Make sure you place the pots in pot feet.
By keeping the plants well above the ground, you’ll make sure they have proper
air circulation. It will also ensure that excess moisture leaves through the
drainage holes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">As for the ground, each plant has its own
preference. However, you should make sure you fill your pots with soil and then
add a layer of mulch. That will ensure that no mold and excess moisture ruins
the plants. However, if you have the right compost and drainage holes on your
pots, you can avoid the moisture problem. Also, make sure you fill the
containers up to the rim. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_gjdgxs"></a><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Some plants simply
can’t live in the cold, so you’ll have to </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/04/why-you-need-plants-in-your-apartment.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">keep them inside</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"> during the winter. However,
you must keep them somewhere where they can get enough light to survive. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">It’s good to prepare plants for the winter.
You can do that by continuing to water them regularly throughout the fall, as
this reduces new growth, which is the most vulnerable in cold weather. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">As for watering in the winter, it's important
not to overdo it. The excess water can kill the roots of the plants. It's vital
to keep it just slightly moist so the roots don’t dry out. Additionally, before
the first freezing temperatures, you should water the plants well. Then you can
continue to add some water whenever the temperatures rise above 4 degrees C (40
degrees F).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">The
Bottom Line<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">As you can see, there’s always a way to
keep your plants alive, even during harsh conditions. All you need to do is
follow the advice we gave you, and you should be fine. And if you have a green
thumb, you’ll do great.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">All of you who have a balcony know how
wonderful it is to spend time on it during the breezy spring days and cool
summer evenings. It’s a place the whole family can enjoy together talking,
playing games, and relaxing.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However, when the cold weather comes, the
balcony becomes as desolate a place as the forgotten parts of the basement.
With that in mind, we wanted to help you by showing you how to create a winter
balcony. Once you're done, you'll be able to continue to have quality time with

small terrace, you can still create a winter balcony easily. All you need is
that old chair that's sitting there. Then, you can create a canopy out of it by
using a curtain of your choice, some hula hoop, and a metal wire to tie it all
together. Use the hula hoop to hang the curtain and tie it all in a corner with

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Most people know that tenant insurance is
not required, and they are right. Many also believe that it only benefits the
landlord. However, there are several reasons why this insurance is beneficial
for the tenant as well.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

is Tenant Insurance?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">There are several different tenant
insurance policies, but all of them will cover several standard things:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Such standard coverage usually costs a
little as $25 per month. You can also pay extra if you have some other
valuables you want to be covered. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Now, let’s take a look at some of the main
reasons that make tenant insurance useful.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Reasons
for Getting Tenant Insurance<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The main reason why getting tenant
insurance is beneficial is the fact it covers personal property. If anything in
the home gets damaged or broken by accident, you wouldn't have to pay for it.
Most people believe that they will be careful and that nothing will happen, so
they don't think they need this type of insurance. However, the truth is that
accidents do happen, so it's better to stay protected.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The same can be said about accidents that
may happen to other people. As we've said, the primary form of tenant insurance
makes sure you're covered if someone decides to sue after getting injured in
your apartment. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_gjdgxs"></a><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The most important
thing about tenant insurance is that it covers the tenant if accidental damage
happens to the apartment itself. Without insurance, you'll </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/02/who-is-responsible-for-specific.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">likely have to pay</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"> for any damage caused while
living there. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">A good plus about tenant insurance is that
your personal possessions are covered even while traveling. That includes both
the possessions you take with you and those that stay in the rented apartment. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In some cases, landlords require you to
have tenant insurance. If you refuse, they simply decide not to rent you the
apartment. The landlord is entirely </span><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/07/what-to-do-if-you-think-you-are-being.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">within their right</span></span></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"> to ask this of you.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If you're a student, your parents'
insurance might not cover you adequately. That's because many policies only
cover you partially while you’re living away from your parents. Plus, they
require that you’re financially dependent on them. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">The
Bottom Line<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Now you know everything you need to know
about tenant insurance. The information provided here should be more than
enough for you to decide whether or not you need tenant insurance. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If you’re looking for our advice – you
should get it. It’s not expensive, and it covers a lot. Plus, it’s better to be
safe than sorry!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The sun is shining less, and the weather is slowly getting
worse – it's the most definite sign that summer is ending, and fall is quickly
approaching. When that time comes, you know it's high time to start getting
your home ready for fall. <o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In this article, we wanted to give you some tips on what
you can do to prepare your rental for fall and avoid falling for it!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;">Prepare for the Rain<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">One thing that is often characteristic of fall is the
rain. Consequently, it's the main thing you need to prepare for before the
near-constant rain starts.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The first thing that should come to mind is to make sure
that nothing is left outside. If you have anything outside that can be damaged
by rain, it's time to get it into storage.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;">If you live in a basement apartment, this part is crucial.
You should make sure the outdoor drains are cleared of leaves and other debris.
You can </span><span lang="EN-US"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/02/who-is-responsible-for-specific.html" target="_blank"><span style="background: white; color: #0563c1; mso-highlight: white;">ask the landlord</span></a><span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;"> to clear the rain
gutter if that's not something that you can do. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/1/null" name="_gjdgxs"></a><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;">Furthermore, it's essential to make sure
your apartment is safe by checking the windows for leaks. That will also help
with drafts, which tends to overwork your heating system. And we all know the
effect this can have on your wallet and the </span><span lang="EN-US"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/09/home-habits-you-didnt-realize-are-bad.html" target="_blank"><span style="background: white; color: #0563c1; mso-highlight: white;">environment</span></a><span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;">. Speaking of
drafts, it's time to discuss how to prepare for the colder weather. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;">Prepare for the
Colder Weather<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Another obvious characteristic of fall is the colder
weather. You can prepare for it by checking for leaks and holes in your windows
and doors. These can let the cold air in and make it harder for your heating
system to warm up your apartment. It’s shown that such gaps can account for as
much as 10% of your heating bill, so it stands to reason that you would want
those spaces sealed.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-highlight: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If you live on the top floor, it’s a good idea to check
the roof for leaks. Check with your landlord to see who’s responsible for that
part. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;">The good news is that it is, the not so good news is that it can be
quite tricky. The important thing to remember is that it’s not about finding a
perfect person, because that doesn’t exist. It’s about finding a perfect
roommate for you and your lifestyle — someone who fits and agrees with you
where it matters.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;"></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;">A lot of that will depend on your personal preferences, but there are

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;">Trustworthiness is an important trait, especially if you’re moving in
with someone you don’t know that well. Sharing your living space with someone
without being able to trust them certainly won’t be pleasant. Before you move

person you’ve recently met, consider whether someone you know can vouch for
them.

If they’re unreliable, you can’t function as a
team, and that means difficulties. You can easily spot an unreliable person by
asking the following questions: Are they there for their friends? Do they show
up where and when they’ve said they would show up? Do they pay their rent on
time?</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;"></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;">Incompatible cleaning habits are one of the main problems people have
with their roommates. Of course, nobody wants to live with a slob, but that
usually isn’t what ends up happening. More often than not, it’s the little
differences in cleaning habits that cause arguments and stress. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;"></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;">For example, your roommate might otherwise be very neat but have the
unfortunate habit of piling up used coffee mugs on their desk, or outside of
their own space.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;"></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;">They might prefer to wash the dishes right after a meal, while you tend
to load them in the sink for later. Or one of you might be obsessive about
cleanliness, while the other is a little more laid back. These differences are
enough to create frustration in everyday life, so it’s important to be on the
same page.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;"></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;">Finally, whatever your differences or disagreements, your roommate
should be respectful and communicative enough to discuss them rather than
argue. No matter how well you get along, it’s inevitable to have disagreements,
and you want someone who can handle them in a mature way. If they tend to sulk,
give you the silent treatment or lose their temper in confrontational
situations, they might not be the best choice.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;"></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Living as a tenant has a lot of benefits,
especially when you <u><span style="color: #0563c1;"><a href="https://www.rentcompass.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;">find a greatflat</span></a></span></u> and a wonderful landlord. However, that can’t happen
always, and sometimes you find a landlord who’s not entirely pleasant, or even
worse, he’s actually mistreating you. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In such situations, you should always start
thinking that he is most likely doing things that can be considered as
discrimination against you as their tenant. But how do you recognize these
situations, and what can you do if the landlord is discriminating against you?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Discrimination is, naturally, against the
law. However, not everything is considered to be discrimination in the eyes of
the law. According to the Ontario Human Rights Code, there are a couple of
instances that are considered to be discrimination against the tenant. The
specific situations are numerous, but it’s legally defined as discrimination if

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Additionally, it’s worth noting that the
same things apply when they come from other tenants and not the landlord. If
that’s the case, know that your landlord is bound by the law to try to do
something about it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Now, the next thing that you should know is
that there is direct and indirect discrimination. Direct discrimination is
relatively obvious – for example, a landlord refuses to rent you their place
because they don’t like your religion. Indirect discrimination, on the other
hand, is <u><span style="color: #1155cc;"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2019/02/can-landlords-ban-smoking-marijuana-in.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #1155cc;">not so blatant</span></a></span></u>.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">We can’t cover all instances of this as
they are endless, but we can help you understand it. For example, if your
landlord threatens to evict you because other tenants are complaining about
noises and the only noise you’re making comes from your children – that’s
indirect discrimination against children. Even if the landlord doesn’t
intentionally try to discriminate against you, it can still be considered discrimination.
<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">You should also know that some things are
not considered to be discriminatory. For example, a landlord can decide to rent
all units in a building to people of the same sex. Additionally, if a part of
the rental is shared with the landlord or their family, then the landlord has
the right to refuse anyone for any reason.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">What
to Do if You Think There’s Discrimination?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If a situation feels like it can quickly be
resolved with the landlord, try to do precisely that. Sometimes it can be a
simple misunderstanding.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The first thing that you should do is find
out if the situation you’ve been involved in is discriminatory. You can do that
<u><span style="color: #0563c1;"><a href="http://www.hrlsc.on.ca/en/node/143" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;">here</span></a></span></u>. If you decide that there has
been discrimination against your or your family, you may need to obtain legal
help. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If you can’t hire someone for legal
representation, then you need to try to prove the discrimination took place.
Talk to other tenants, ask for information from others, collect all the
evidence you can, take notes, etc. Essentially, do as many things as you can to
be able to prove that the discrimination took place later on. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">We hope the information we’ve shared with
you will help you protect yourself in any potentially discriminating situation.

<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Many of us want to grow edible plants like
vegetables, but we don’t want to live outside of the city. We usually give up
on having plants because it’s hard to uproot your life entirely just for the
sake of having some home-grown food.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However, what if we told you that there are
several vegetables that you can grow in your city apartment?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">It’s more than possible, and you only need
to know which vegetables can grow in an <u><span style="color: #0563c1;"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/04/why-you-need-plants-in-your-apartment.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;">urban setting</span></a></span></u>, and how to grow
them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Microgreens<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Microgreens are both very healthy and very
easy to grow. There’s not much to do here besides keeping them in a shallow
container and a spot with plenty of sunlight. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">For the seeds to sprout, it’s best you use
potting soil instead of regular dirt. You will also need to buy adequate
planting seeds which you then need to sprinkle all over the dirt and then weigh
them down for a while. That will help the seeds to take hold and sprout.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Salad
Greens<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If you like eating salads, then you’re most
likely spending a lot of money on salad greens all the time. However, it’s easy
to grow them, even in an apartment. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">All you need is a couple of starter plants
which you will keep in warm and moist soil. They will also need plenty of light
to flourish.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Avocados<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">An increasing favourite, the avocado is
essentially a plant you can grow in almost any setting.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">All that you need is another avocado. Take
the seed out and dry it thoroughly, then put toothpicks inside in a way that
will enable you to suspend the root above water, with one side within it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Once you do that, you’ll need to keep it
like that for a month or two and maintain the water level. Also, you’ll need a
warm location with enough light. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If everything is done right, you’ll most
likely get root and stem which you can then plant in a pot where you’ll
continue to nurture it with enough water and light. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Tomatoes<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Tomatoes, and especially the cherry
variety, can thrive in both a garden and regular pots. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">All you need is a large enough pot, enough
water, and direct sunlight for about 12 hours per day. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In the end, it’s best that you start
growing tomatoes midsummer when the conditions are right for them, and there’s
enough sunlight. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Bell
Peppers<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Bell peppers, unfortunately, require lots
of space, but if you do have the area, then it won’t be much of a problem to
grow them in an apartment. A single container of bell peppers should have
around two gallons of soil. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">When you’re putting seeds in the ground,
you should make sure there’s enough space between them. Then you’ll need to
keep the soil moist, but avoid saturating it, and you should keep them in a
place that gets sunlight throughout the day.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Mushrooms<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">One would think that mushrooms can thrive
in settings like apartments, and they certainly can. However, the easiest way
to grow edible mushrooms is with the use of a mushroom growing kit which is
usually low cost and available in many stores. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">It’s not always easy to find ways to live
in spacious and gorgeous-looking apartments. Many city-dwellers who want to
stay in the city but can’t afford any type of residence, often opt for living
in a basement suite – which is usually the <u><span style="color: #0563c1;"><a href="https://www.rentcompass.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;">cheapest option</span></a></span></u>
that can still compare to other apartments. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">However, this type of home usually comes
with a price – there’s barely enough light. Realizing that this is a big
problem for many, we wanted to give you some expert advice on how you can make
your basement apartment brighter. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<h3>
<span lang="EN-US">More
Light?<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Yes, it does seem like an obvious solution
which would negate the point of having this article at all. However, adding
artificial light can’t always make an apartment feel brighter – at least not in
a natural sense. What you can get though is the uncomfortable and
claustrophobic feel of a doctor’s office, which is filled with a lot of
artificial light.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The best solution here is to mimic natural
light in any way you can. You can do that by strategically placing light
sources and mixing them up. Make sure they are set both high and low and make
sure that you’re using track lighting, up-lighting, and conventional lamps.
Also make sure that you’re using stronger light bulbs that emanate white and
warm white light, not yellow. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">We can’t give you a foolproof system
because it all depends on each apartment. Experiment enough, and you’ll find a
way that suits your needs. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Paint
the Rooms Using Lighter Colors<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Besides light from light sources, you can
also obtain it from paint. What you can do here is paint the walls using bright
colors as they too can make your basement apartment look brighter. It’s best to
combine light paint for the walls in combination with bright lighting.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The best colors to use here is regular
white, creamy white, navajo white, light grey, and several other similar paint
colors. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US">Appliances
and Furniture Which Reflect Light<o:p></o:p></span></h3>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">This method has been used since antiquity.
Glass, stainless steel, and many other materials are known to reflect light,
and having them in an apartment can undoubtedly brighten up the place.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">If changing too many appliances and
furniture pieces seem expensive to you, you can find an adequate substitution
in mirrors. Simple mirrors with non-fussy frames can do the trick as long as
you find a strategic location where they can reflect the most light.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">We’ve saved the best for last. Best in the
sense that it’s adequate and yet entirely free. All you need to do is declutter
the place as much as you can.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The less cluttered your place is, the less
claustrophobic and dark it will feel. All the light you have won’t get lost in
various objects around if you don’t have them, it’s that simple.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Naturally, you don’t need to go overboard
here. Try and store things that you don’t need in your apartment or those that
you use only occasionally. Keep countertops clean and tidy. Make sure there is
enough of that sleek facade. It tends to give the impression that the place is
much brighter than it is. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
All of us who live in apartments know how troublesome
neighbours can be. Sometimes you bother them by being noisy, and sometimes they
bother you with their <u><span style="color: #0563c1;"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2018/01/simple-tricks-to-soundproof-your-pad.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;">loudness</span></a></span></u>. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
However, there are often those times when there’s a
neighbour or more who are being more than annoying with how loud and noisy they
can be. In such cases you can’t live with it – you have to do something. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If it has come to the point when you can’t take it anymore
and don’t know what to do, read on as we’ll give you some tips.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<h3>
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Talk to them</b></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yes, it does sound like a simple thing to do, but many don’t
even attempt it. They either dread confrontations with neighbours, or they feel
like it would lead to nothing. However, you would be surprised how reasonable
people can be if you try to speak with them.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Naturally, it doesn’t mean that you get mad or tell them how
annoyed you are. You should calmly approach the issue. First, introduce
yourself if you don’t know each other and slowly and casually approach the
topic. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You should act innocently and not appear like you’re
attacking them. Mention to your neighbours that they may not be aware, but they
are very loud, and the walls are thin, and you can’t manage to get any rest
from the noise.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The key is to try to appeal to their reason and not get
confrontational. You can point out that it’s ok to have fun but that the noise
is upsetting others around them. But never go about it by attacking them and
telling them to stop it or something along those lines. Such a conversation
will not end well with most people. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The last thing that you can do is offer a compromise of
sorts. Ask them to be quiet during the hours of rest or when it’s most
bothersome to you and say that it’s ok to be loud during other hours of the
day. Get creative – it all depends on what you want, what they want, and to
find some middle ground. But <u><span style="color: #0563c1;"><a href="https://rentcompass.blogspot.com/2017/07/how-to-be-great-tenant.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0563c1;">bear in mind the rules</span></a></span></u> your
building has.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<h3>
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Additional Tips</b></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sometimes talking won’t work, so here are some other simple
tips that you can use which can be very useful with loud neighbours.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Many landlords are not looking to rob you but are still
looking to rent you a place that’s not at all worth the money you’re paying.
The usual way they do this is by giving false claims about a property that
eventually end up being incorrect. That’s why it’s essential to visit an
apartment and check everything yourself. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Yes, that’s a common thing. Many scammers copy out an ad for
an apartment that already got leased. You can avoid this by checking if the
condo is <a href="https://www.rentcompass.com/"><span style="color: #0563c1;">listed
somewhere else</span></a> and you can also look at the tax records to make sure
that the owner is not someone else.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Another reason to visit the home is to make sure it exists.
However, sometimes you can’t. If you’re moving from somewhere far away, you
can’t always visit a place first. You needn’t worry if you can’t as there are
other ways of checking if an ad for an apartment is real. You can check the
company or landlord online, and you can also use Skype or FaceTime to see the
apartment and the person you’re dealing with and make sure it’s all legitimate.
