It’s a good fit if you…
- Like the vibe of older homes with the high ceilings and crown molding, and appreciate new stuff (i.e. new finishings, appliances and flooring). We kept the best of the old + new everything else.
- Want your home to be clean + attractive. The bathroom is lovely + built-in shelves in the living room + wainscoting + French doors + quartz counters + custom coat hooks for the living room and bedroom + custom screens done for the deck.
- Enjoy having your own outdoor space.
- Like being able to walk everywhere (95 walkability score) + be close to transit and parks without the noise and crowds. Safe neighbourhood. Close to parks, skytrain, bus routes, great restaurants, shops.
- Like community feeling. The neighbourhood definitely has it and it’s a friendly house.
You are a good match because you...
- don't smoke or vape (anything)
- don't have any pets
- have no problem paying the damage deposit
- have no problem paying rent with cheques (yup, we're old school)
- can easily provide references confirming you’re employed and are a terrific tenant (current and previous landlord)
- are looking to stay in a lovely home for one or more years (1 year lease)
Next steps:
- If you're a match then email for the address confirming that you are a non-smoker, that you don't have any pets, and how many people would be renting the suite … and we’ll set up a showing.
