How to find accommodations

[ray_lev]

Is it a good idea to trust the rental ads on craigslist? i heard most of those are fraud and scam. Its very difficult for me finding house to stay in Canada coz I've no one there. How people manage to find accommodations? Any suggestions?

depending where u r going u can use local kjiji.com yes adv can be scam so u dont pay them unless u go to the apartment and check it out . may be find a rental office. u can do this once ur in canada . Also once ur in canada u can walk around ur college and find apartments for rent signs posted and ask there. Once in canada and u make friends they may know too.

Thanks mead for reply. I've found some commercial apartment renting company. "www . columbiaproperty . ca" is this legit? Can I trust them?

yes most of them are fraud on craigslist, they will right you very long and touchy emails but dont pay any money in advance and they ask for western union transfer. kijiji is much best or try to contact your university/student union/fb groups, you will find someone there from your country or community.
any girl/couple looking for temp/permanent accommodation in halifax,NS??

search ads in kijiji, contact the landlord or whoever he is, go to his place, check his place and stuff inside the house/apartment. ASK ALL QUESTIONS YOU HAVE IN MIND.

this is what i did.

Thanks guys... Now my plan is to fly by 12th dec and stay in hotel for few days. Then I'll find apartments by myself.

or u can do homestay. i think it's cheaper than hotel (not sure)

bus stops usually have ads posted there
