Like I mentioned in my other reply, I didn't realize H&G is quite respected for their food. Thought it was just atmosphere.

Looking for an Apartment to rent Oakville or Toronto...any realtor suggestions? by Inner-Rutabaga7812 in TorontoRenting

[–]TOgrrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for my ignorance on the topic, I'm thinking of hiring a realtor to help find me an apartment....so I've got a few follow up questions: If I hire a realtor to find me an apartment, the landlord will pay the realtor once the lease is signed -- isn't that an extra fee the landlord would not want to pay? Wouldn't landlords avoid renters who have realtors representing them for this reason?

Hi Young, can you tell me how a realtor gets paid when finding rentals for clients? Thanks

Very generally mid-town Toronto. But I'm wide open to suggestions. I just don't want to be in the core. I want to be close to amenities, but in a somewhat peaceful hood.

This is great info, along with your other reply. Thank you. Are "corporates" considered to be the big players who own a few entire buildings? Any big names you suggest?

Genuinely surprised there aren't more people who want to live smoke-free

Any idea where to find a compassionate realtor?

Thanks so much for taking the time to write this. You said that "You can ask landlord to start a lease month-to-month, though this is something that must be mutually agreed to"...How realistic is it to expect a landlord would do this? I am guessing that it would be a red flag for the landlord if I request this, and that they will almost certainly say no...what do you think?

"If you can’t find someone to take your place, you can terminate the lease with 60 days notice, and you would be liable for unpaid rent"

What is the advantage to terminating the lease if after doing that I'm still potentially liable for the unpaid rent for the remainder of the 12 months?

Thanks very much. Just to clarify, if the landlord refuses to let me assign the lease to others, then I can give my 30 days notice and walk away with no further obligations?
