189.0. "WANTED - Accommodation in Toronto " by RDGENG::ADURHAM () Tue Jun 06 1989 14:01

WANTED - ACCOMMODATION REQUIRED IN TORONTO
------------------------------------------

I am young professional lady (non-smoker) looking for rented
accommodation in Toronto or the outskirts.

I am flying to Toronto in July on a temporary basis (approx 6 months) 
and would like to find some rented accommodation.  I understand that 
accommodation is hard to come by, so if you know of anybody in 
the Toronto area looking for a flatmate or lodger please let me know.

Alternatively, if you have any suggestions of how to find 
accommodation once I am in Toronto I would be most grateful.

Thanks

    I can tell you what I did when I first came to Toronto and didn't
    have any contacts here. I went to the University of Toronto Housing
    Dept. This is a store-house of rental/shared accomodations. This
    service is intended only for students but if you pretend you are
    one, or ask someone to borrow their card for a couple of hours you'll
    be okay.
    
    There is of course the Toronto Star's classified section but a lot
    of people are vying for these places. Some hotels and condo owners
    also offer temporary accomodation for short-term basis.
    
    Finally, if you are willing to pay the money, accomodation is available
    in Toronto. For a 1 bedroom, you maybe looking at anywhere from
    $750-800 for a decent place.

    RE:TORONTO ACCOMMODATION
    
    I have a close friend in the west end of toronto, (aprox. 30 minutes
    by bus from downtown toronto. friend lives alone in a 4 bedroom
    house. 
    
    while the friend is of the male gender and you appear to be of the
    female , you can trust him not to sneak into your room at night.
    
    if you want me to call him for you - to see if he'll put you up
    and what he'd charge, let me know.
    
    (my last year in toronto, i boarded at his place and it worked out
    great- he's never home.)
