When you find
an apartment or house that you are interested
in, you will want to call the landlord to get
more information about the unit. You will
probably have many questions to ask the
landlord regarding the unit. If you are still
interested in the unit after talking with the
landlord, ask to see the unit.
| It is
difficult to get in touch with many
landlords and many will not return your
calls. Do not give up! Make a list so
that you know who you have called, where
you have left messages and who you have
to call back. The more landlords you
talk to, the more likely you are to find
what you are looking for. |
If You Do Not Have a
Phone
It is
important that landlords know how to reach you
if you are trying to find a place to live. The
Housing Help Centre has free phones which you
can use. The staff will also take messages for
you. However, you may want to get a voicemail
box to take messages from landlords while you
look for housing. The Housing Help Centre
offers a program called LINKS which allows you
to purchase your own voice mail box. LINKS
costs $11.00 for 3 months. For more
information, call 905-526-8100.
