| As well as most other countries, Canada offers a wide variety of options when it comes to choosing "home". The choice you make will hang on several factors: your budget, your space needs, and your desired location. Below are some of the accommodations you may want to consider: - A room for rent. Some individuals who own a house or an apartment may let separate rooms in those dwellings. All of the tenants share the bathroom(s) and the kitchen. - A studio apartment. These apartments are small and were initially designed for just one person. Most have a single large room – that consists of a kitchen and a bedroom – and a separate bathroom. - An apartment. Apartments range in size from one to three bedrooms. They also have separate living rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms. - A duplex. A duplex is a single house divided into two separate living areas, each area being separated from the other. Still, the residents may share a yard or a driveway. - A townhouse. Townhouses are small houses which are built in rows, so that they form a chain. Most of the homes in the chain look similar. - A house. Houses of all shapes and sizes are available throughout Canada. You may have a house built specifically to your specifications on an available lot. - A condominium. Condominiums are essentially apartments or townhouses that are owned, not rented. Owners are responsible for all of the internal maintenance and care on the property and must pay property taxes. They also pay a condominium association fee which covers the costs of outside maintenance, such as lawn mowing. Besides these types of living accommodation, you also need to decide whether you will live in a furnished or unfurnished "home". Furnished living accommodations mean that all of the necessary furnishings are included, such as beds and chairs. Furnished apartments and homes may be a good option when you are immigrating to Canada from a faraway country, because the cost of transporting your own couches and beds could be rather expensive. Nonetheless, most people choose to live in an unfurnished dwelling to be able to decorate in a manner they see fit. Some unfurnished accommodations will still come with refrigerators and stoves in the kitchen. Still, housing costs vary greatly, even within the same province. You can save money on housing by doing some research and focusing on areas outside major cities. |
