Tips for finding the perfect temporary furnished rental during a home renovation

So the major home renovation is happening and your house will be unavailable temporarily. You are looking for housing options for some time, but you don’t want the extra burden of the hotel, as you might have to live there for more than a month. Additionally, monthly apartment rentals can be challenging as most of them are not furnished. Fortunately, other options can be explored as well that will not break your bank. You only need to walk in with your bag and can make it like your home. Here are some tips for locating temporary apartments for rent in Vancouver while your house is getting renovated.

• Find a contact locally

Most of the extended-stay leases can be found with the help of websites, which is the best resource. Simply ask if there’s any person who you contact or a local manager that can help with the questions about the place you are going to live that you might have. The local contacts will help to look for the grocery stores near you or the perfect cup of tea.

• Check with the trusted websites

Nowadays, most people are renting their vacation houses and vacant apartments through websites. The listings usually have a weekly, monthly, or nightly rate attached. Use the filters and search by number, location, amenities, bedrooms, etc. You can go through the photos and also read the reviews that might be submitted by others. The benefit is that you can easily get a decent place to live in and that too furnished, and most of them are even equipped by the kitchens so avoid the lifestyle of the hotel.

• Keep distance in consideration

Your search for fully furnished rental properties in Vancouver BC can be widened and include the areas nearby. The best advice is to rent around the corner from your existing place, the closer the better. Stay nearby and improve your house.

• Ask your friends

Either you trust or not, various times only the words from other people are best to look for temporary housing. Discuss with your family, friends, and co-workers and let them know about your hunt for a temporary house while your home is under renovation, or ask for the leads. You might be surprised to know that how many of them have a vacation rental or guest house or might know a person who will have one. You can get a great deal on the apartment. The best advantage is you might get it cheap or free, and if it’s from someone close to you, it will be better. You would get the limited options might be one or two, and if you don’t know any referral, there are chances of risk. So, make sure to consider everything while looking for apartments for rent in Vancouver.

• Consider corporate housing agency

You can consult a corporate housing company if considering temporary rentals. They focus on offering fully-furnished housing options for people who are looking for it. Specify the amenities and amount of space you want, and the agency will help you to get an apartment that comes within your budget, at a fraction of what it costs to stay in a hotel.

If you are in need and looking for furnished rental properties in Vancouver BC, keep these tips in mind and go ahead in finding the best one. There are fully furnished available of all sizes and one of them will be perfect for your extended stay needs.

Housing rental scams confusing amid ‘desperate unprecedented times

Rental scams in Vancouver and across Canada have been on the rise for years, but COVID-19’s slow-down of in-person property viewings and interactions with landlords may make it even harder for people to figure out what’s legitimate online.

A recent article published by Vancouver is Awesome narrates an incident where the scammer even met the Burnaby residents in person pretending to be the landlord of the unit advertised on craigslist and then later fleeing away with their money.

Don’t Wait for Keys to be Couriered:

No company/landlord will send you keys to the property without meeting with you or having you see the home. If someone offers to send you keys in exchange for money, it’s probably a scam. We have heard plenty of horror stories about people who sign a lease and send a security deposit, but they are still waiting for keys to the property.

These craigslist rental scams are no new stories, so the renter must be alert and aware. Here are some tips to be armed with the correct information, so renters can be sure that they’re protecting themselves and their wallets by looking out for red flags.

If you are dealing with a property management company in BC while searching for a new place.

Here are some tips:

• Do extensive research via google and social media platforms
• Do a license check through the real estate board of the British Columbia(REBC)
• Do not send any money before signing an agreement

If you are dealing directly with the landlord

Here are some of his tips:

• Ask references from the landlord
• Ask for proof of ownership, such as land titles or a city property tax assessment, or ID.
• Avoid any money transfers and cash payments that are not traceable and do not pay upfront.

With all of the stresses searching for a new home and moving to bring, the fear of falling victim to a scam is extra worry renters don’t need.

The best way to protect yourself from rental scams is by renting through a reputable property management company like First Stay Realty Inc. With many property owners and tenants’ services, our team of experts works diligently to protect owners’ investments and provide tenants with a smooth, worry-free rental experience.
