There’s a rental application form the landlord requires all tenants to fill out, Very basic screening tool.

Hi there, I am looking to fill a room in my 2-bedroom apartment with a clean, tidy, respectful and responsible individual (no couples) Students preferred. The room is available for move-in Friday March 1st. I do 4/month terms based on the school year. Another term is possible but it all comes down to where my life is ATM, and if I think we get along enough to survive another term lol.

Clean freaks are welcome, absolutely no slobs, if you’re someone who naturally keeps your bedroom neat and tidy on the regular, you’re likely the type of person who will fit in at my place.

The rooms furnished with the following: Desk, lamp with a boss style leather chair, Duvet and pillows with covers. Queen size Kingsdown mattress with protector. Big closet with hangers and a hanging storage organizer. 5 x 8’ Area rug.

$900/month All-Inclusive (heat, hydro, internet) first and last required. The bedroom is 10’6“x9’ and about 9’ high ceilings, Laminate flooring, north-facing window. Must supply your own fan or portable AC.

The address is 287 Clarence Street and is walking distance to just about everything. Walk Score 93 Transit Score 90 Bike Score 96. Market Life ¯_(ツ)_/¯

There will not be a lease, but instead, there will be a roommate agreement Bazinga! The term goes by the school semesters. I will never use the agreement to keep someone around, if you want to leave before the end of the agreement all I ask is the standard 2 months’ notice. A landlord cannot live in the same unit as a tenant, which is why I have to use a roommate agreement instead of a lease.

The apartment is located on the second floor of a three-story building with three balconies (2 front and 1 back) and is approximately 900sqft. High ceiling throughout the apartment with hardwood, laminate, and tile flooring. You will have your own personal shower caddy, drawer and counter space in the bathroom. Toilet has a bidet attachment (cold water only) and the Squatty Potty.

Rogers Internet Ignite 500-unlimited with a wifi pod strong signal throughout the unit.

Access and control to the Blink home self-monitoring security system. Blink cameras are located in the living room, dining room, front door hallway, Kitchen, and back door/balcony. The place was broken into back in 2016. Cameras armed by whoever leaves the apartment last. You can choose to live-view the place through the app on your phone. This isn’t an option, it’s a requirement. You must have the app installed on your smartphone and remember to arm the cameras.

In unit has Washer and dryer, Iron + ironing board, Clothes drying rack, TRX, Resistance tube workout area and Chin-up bar.

119“projector screen with Epson FHD 3D projector

Karaoke jams a thing but it’s occasional. Three TV’s in the dining room/Sports bar/Gym. Football Sundays a thing for me, I don’t have many friends who likes Football like I do. Very well equipped kitchen with quality cookware, utensils and I have a strong appliance game: 12qt & 6qt Slow Cookers (Crockpot), Instant pot (pressure cooker), Deep fryer, Air fryer, 10 cup rice cooker, Waffle maker, portable gas stove for hot pots, Drip coffee maker, Lavazza Blue Coffee/Espresso Machine, Kettle, Napoleon Travel Q gas BBQ.

Quick facts:

Dishes always completely washed (handles, all sides of the dishes/pots/pans/utensils). I don’t care if you leave a pile of dishes to wash later on the counter, but dishes on the counter must be rinsed beforehand to avoid attracting any pests.

No shoes inside. Slippers, socks or barefoot only.

There will never be urine stains on the toilet, always wiped down after. The place stays clean, I will never leave a mess for you and I expect the same common curtesy.

Always rinse the tub, walls and curtain thoroughly with the hand held showerhead after your shower so that soap scum and grime does not buildup so quickly, helps prolong cleanliness.

We take turns monthly with the general cleaning of the apartment; this includes dusting from the top down, spraying cleaners and wiping down, sweeping and mopping, scrubbing bathtub, walls, sinks, and toilet. General cleaning should be completed by the 1st weekend of the month. Couple of hours once every couple of months isn’t asking much.

We’ll also take turns monthly being responsible for gathering all the garbage to take out on garbage/recycling days and bringing bins back in. this is the only way so that one roommate will never resent the other for not pulling their weight.

Shared responsibilities. Necessities including toilet paper, Kleenex and paper towels we will take turns buying as well. Never value brand. Minimum 6 packs face tissue and paper towel packs. Toilet paper minimum 12 roll packs.

The fridge is clean and aside from dust accumulation, there shouldn’t be anything else. Dirty containers always wiped down before placing back into the fridge, loose vegetable and or fruit goes into a container or bag, potential leakage from packaged meat? Meat tray it! or keep it in a bag. Never leave rotting food

If all that makes sense to you we should get along just fine.

Now a little about myself: My name is Eddy, in my Mid 30’s, I work full-time at a division of Bell Media, non-smoker but Cannabis friendly (outdoors only), I don’t party at home very often, weekends if anything. I am more clean and tidy than other people you would know, I like to watch movies, sports (football Sundays a thing) and follow many TV series. I am a perfectionist (not OCD). I Lean towards Buddhism. If I am not watching anything I will usually be listening to music. There’s only 1% of Canadians who have listened to more Spotify than I have in 2022.

Slight allergy to pets but it all depends on the dander, Landlords and I are not down with dogs anymore. Cats a possibility.

Fair warning: I hate drunks and dirty people, stay away if that’s you because we’ll just end up in a fist fight. I can’t be nice to someone I dislike.

If interested, please reply through this ad with a little about yourself, what you’re taking in school or what your line of work is, age, hobbies etc…

I am not just trying to find someone to pay half the rent, I am looking for someone who lives a similar lifestyle, someone who understands how to live well and clean. Not looking for a bestie, I like to do my own thing. Occasional gatherings one thing, this is not a party house, but it sure has the most potential to be that house on the block.

Thanks Eddy
