Let’s be real — renting in Toronto has turned into a full-time job. Between bidding wars, ghosting landlords, fake listings, and “$2,800 for a shoebox with no windows,” it feels like we’re living in a simulation.
I’ve heard some horror stories lately — rent hikes overnight, “no visitors allowed” policies, and landlords trying to raise rent mid-lease. One of my friends even lost their place because the landlord “needed it for family”… and a week later it was back up on Facebook for $500 more.
What’s your renter’s nightmare story?
Was it an impossible application process, a bad roommate, or a landlord from hell?
