In person 
Edmonton wise.
Found this out last time I went to Edmonton briefly, the guy I had spoken with had pictures of the place. It was clean and fairly decent for the price. It ended up being one of those, pile a shitload of people in, couch, living room, etc, run down & B.O, it pissed me off pretty good.
He looks at me, trying to sell the shit hole of a place. "trust worthy people", yeah, I'd have to be sleeping with one eye open scenario. |
Yea i tried getting a place online....didnt happen
I had to fly up here to find a place, pretty much with cash in hand for both deposit (which up here is usually 1 full month rent) and the 1st month rent.
I ended up getting my place over some girl who didnt have 5g cash on hand....but offered to give the landlord a post dated cheque for the next payday....
but in this market...cash is king, and its super competitive...
o yes..i'm paying $2500/month for a small basement suite uptown...includes utilities, cable, and internet....
and i thought vancouver was expensive......
