Four Ways to Use Furnished Rentals—Without Leaving Town

June 14, 2022

How many things can you do with a furnished Toronto rental condo? It’s been a long time since furnished rentals were just for business travelers, even though we can often still think of them that way. But a temporary home built for long-term stays—30 nights or more—can bring a flexibility and freedom to your life, even if you already live in the same city.

Here’s four ways furnished rental apartments can get you where you want to go—right at home in Toronto.

Hold out for the right home—and save your money

A fully-furnished, serviced condominium doesn’t seem cheaper than a normal rental. But if you’re finding a place to call home in less-than-perfect conditions, it can be a way to save big money in the long run.

Whether it’s location, the condition of the space, rowdy neighbours, or a landlord whose problem-solving style doesn’t match yours, there are lots of reasons a lease can go bad—and be very expensive to break. From storage, reclaiming rent money, service installation fees, lost working time, and more, those abrupt and necessary moves are anything but cheap. And they have a terrible habit of adding up, since emergency expenses never show up one at a time.

If you’re not loving your housing market options, a stable and temporary home can save you both money and stress. A DelSuites furnished condo is a chance to really find the right long-term apartment, while turning crisis expenses into predictable ones. You’ll know exactly what you need to budget, and be able to keep the stress spending under control.

Or, if you’re contemplating putting money on a down payment, it’s a way to know that if construction or closing is delayed, you won’t be left scrambling. You can pick out the home you really want—and keep your life on plan and on budget, whatever comes your way.

Be closer to family when they need you

Toronto’s increasingly a city of dense, compact condominium neighbourhoods—and when our loved ones need us nearby, it’s not always easy to fit everyone into an open-concept home. It’s always easier to have help—but it’s no fun to choose between help and getting on each other’s nerves with the very predictable, very different ways adults live our lives.

If your family’s welcoming a new baby, dealing with a challenging illness, grieving a loss, or preparing for any major life change, a furnished rental can be a way to stay the right kind of close by. A furnished rental in the neighbourhood can keep loved ones on hand for emergencies or care, without turning it into a question of how to share space 24/7.

It’s a solution to getting and giving real family support that works—and that everyone can feel good about afterwards.

Study at your own pace

Everyone knows when student move-ins happen: June and September, when lots of apartments in university and college neighbourhoods go up for grabs. But many colleges and grad programs offer January or July starts—especially for professional, condensed programs—and if you’re starting one, a home you love can be harder to find.

As schools go back to on-campus classes, a fully-furnished rental condo can be the key to starting the program you want, when you want. Whether it’s to fill the gap for a few months, until more long-term spaces open, or for the whole semester—you don’t have to wait to start your education.

DelSuites Toronto rentals also let you finish your degree or college program when you want. If you’re taking your last classes in the summer semesters, we can bridge the summer housing gap—without figuring out shared sublets or signing long-term leases you’re not sure you’ll use. You can get to your future sooner, and stay comfortably while you do it.

Take a job contract without the commute

Nothing spoils a dream job offer like a two-hour commute. If you’ve got a job contract on your desk—but don’t want to uproot your whole life—a furnished DelSuites rental can be your temporary teleporter.

It’s a little more freedom to make big, bold career moves—without being limited by location. And it’s a chance to shake up your career without having made huge life commitments in case the job isn’t for you.

You can save your commuting time and still get comfortable in a space that fits your habits and lifestyle. With high-speed internet and cable included in your monthly rate, full ensuite laundry and kitchen, and biweekly cleaning to help out, you can move your hobbies and habits over without breaking a sweat.

Wherever you’re going in life, the right home in the right place and time can be a real help it getting there. Call us at 647-370-3504 or email info@delsuites.com to find out how we can take your Toronto life one step farther.

City of Toronto

Within the city of Toronto itself, there are a variety of districts and neighbourhoods, all having their own unique character and community. As the epicenter of culture, entertainment, cafes, restaurants, shopping, and art, Toronto has something to explore down almost any and every street. If you prefer downtown, Midtown, or a surrounding neighbourhood, DelSuites has the perfect short term rental for you.

Our downtown suites are in the heart of the business, entertainment, and financial districts.

Midtown and Yorkville

For an area that’s up-and-coming and vibrant, the Midtown district is a perfect location to call home.

Although Scarborough can seem far from the city, with its green corridor along the Rouge River Valley, the area is well-connected by Highway 401 and the subway lines on Eglinton and Sheppard Avenues.

January 25, 2021
Toronto rental condo the republic

Here at DelSuites, we’ve provided fully-furnished short-term accommodations for communities all around Toronto, North York, Scarborough, and many others. We choose our locations based on the richness of the local communities, the availability of local amenities, and the general atmosphere that many of Canada’s locations have to offer.

Let’s take a close look at one of our locations, specifically: the Republic.

This property is located at 25 Broadway Avenue in the Midtown Republic region. This rental spot gives you access to the Yonge and Eglinton neighborhoods that are perfect for vacationers and busy workers.

You have access to grocery stores, restaurants, parks, and even movie theaters for a vibrant social scene. Don’t forget the useful utilities like public transportation and corporate offices. There are plenty of hidden gems and secrets in town when you look, but here are some essential locations to get you started.

Local Restaurants

One of the best things about Yonge and Eglinton is the abundance of must-try restaurants. Here are a few personal favorites that we recommend.

Himalayan Coffee House

Ever been to one of those fancy coffee houses where you can get handcrafted latte art alongside your light snack from the bakery? You can get that experience near midtown through this well-regarded coffee shop.

Take a look at Instagram and other social media channels to see some of the cute designs you might find when you visit.

Uncle Betty’s Diner

Craving for breakfast in the late afternoon? This diner offers all-day breakfasts along with other casual eats. The premium menu complements well with the relaxed, retro-styled interior.

Salads and sandwiches are a specialty here, but international visitors must try the local poutine on offer. Canada is well-known for its mastery of the dish.

The Captain’s Boil

This one is slightly farther away, but it’s well worth the walk for any seafood lover. Getting its name from Cajun seafood boils, this restaurant’s menu offers high-quality seafood combined with a rich blend of spices and seasonings for a truly unique taste you won’t find elsewhere. You can even customize the amount of heat, ranging from simple non-spicy to smoking hot fire.

But that doesn’t mean the place is too formal. In fact, it encourages interacting directly with the dish using your hands! Relax with family and friends here when you get the chance.

De Mello Coffee

While not an official restaurant, De Mello is a brand you won’t want to miss. This company is dedicated to responsible sourcing of house-roasted coffee beans. When you buy coffee from De Mello, you can trust that it was sourced responsibly and provides economic and social benefits to those regions from where it comes from.

While you’re here check out their gift bundles as well as full sets perfect for any coffee lover in your family or friend group. For a truly unique coffee experience, De Mello Coffee is closeby and within walking distance of your rental here.

Stores and Grocers

The nearby Metro grocery store has almost everything you could ever need for your kitchen, and you can get many other personal hygiene and beauty products from your local Shoppers Drug Mart.

In need of emergency office supplies or tech accessories? Canada Computers has you covered, with plenty of repair parts, extra cords, and other paraphernalia for when you need to take office work to your home. Best Buy and Staples are both here as well.

Education

In addition to the North Toronto Collegiate Institute, the Toronto Public Library has a branch next door. Finding a quick reference or book to read is easy and accessible this way.

There’s also the Hansa Language Centre for any international travelers looking to brush up their English skills. The location was founded as far back as 1969, so it has plenty of experience in this field. There are even online classes if you need them.

Other Amenities

In terms of local travel, you won’t be in need of a car thanks to the close proximity to amenities and stores. If you ever need to make your way downtown or elsewhere, the Eglinton TTC station has you covered. It’s only a few feet away.

On Sundays, the St. Monica’s Catholic Church is open nearby on 44 Broadway Avenue. Beautiful wood furniture and ceiling lights provide the perfect atmosphere for a Sunday service.
