Renting Your First Home in Canada

Most newcomers rent before they buy. This course walks you through the whole process — searching listings, scheduling and going to a viewing, reading and signing a lease without surprises, understanding what tenants are legally entitled to in Canada, requesting repairs, setting up hydro/internet/insurance, and writing the polite emails that keep your relationship with your landlord smooth.
