| Description |
| I am looking for an unfurnished room and a parking space for my small car. I have a single bed, a 6' folding desk, a 3'x2' table, a CRT TV, a microwave oven, 2 hot water dispensers and many apple boxes. I also have 3 mini frig (20" x 20" x 36"), they have 5-star energy saving rating. I need to have them in my room for convenience, I don't need to use the refrigerator in the kitchen. I also wish for a benign, empathetic and flexible landlord to enhance my livelihood and make me feeling "there is no place like home". On the other hand, I believe landlord want to know the tenants living in their house, they don't want to admit wolves into their home. My cooking habit: I do very little cooking, I eat the same meals everyday: Oatmeal in the morning (done in my microwave oven) and rice porridge with meat and vegetables in the early afternoon (all done in a rice cooker). I don't use the stove. My supper is usually finished before others start cooking their diner, so I will not cause traffic congestion in the kitchen. Most of the time I am invisible to others. My lifestyle and my characters: I am youthful looking (everyone thinks I am in my 40's), I am neat, tidy and well organized, I always keep my home spotlessly clean. I spent my time on the computer doing research and playing the stock market, listening to music, watching my collection of movies/films from a projector, posting music videos in Youtube for fun and passing time and go exercising/jogging in the woods twice weekly. I am quiet, mild tempered, honest, considerate, spiritual but not religious. Sometimes I am humourous and make my neighbour tenants laughing hysterically. I strive to maintain a positive attitude about life, especially in difficult times, since Nature is cyclical, good times and hard times also alternate in cycles. My family background and credential: I grew up motherless in Hong Kong since 2 years old, along with my older sister (we were separated from my mother and brothers by the communists) and grew up as a teenager in Toronto under the care of only my father (a mechancal engineer) as my sister didn't want to come to Canada. I am the youngest among my 5 siblings and the lone survivor in my family. I was never married as I don't want to have a family, but I adapted well to single lifestyle. I have secure and steady pension income, I will not lose my job and unable to pay my rent, income statement is available on demand. I have an Equifax Credit Score of 802 which is rated as "excellent". My education and career: I have a bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering from University of Toronto. I retired from my job as an electronic technician in a big electronic company in the aerospace industry after 31 year of service. I was well liked by my co-workers and by my supervisor, they said I am diligent, devoted and responsible, they said I am cute and they all called me Timmy. My starting salary was $167/week, my salary at retirement was $1,044/week, I have paid nearly $1/2 million income tax in my working life. While some retirees received GIS and other benefits, I was still paying $7,000 income tax annually in the past 10 years, because I had big income supplement from my RRIF, but my RRIF has been depleted due to expensive condo living and surging inflation of recent years that I need to downsize my rent. As Kijiji is fraught with indifferent and discriminatory "room for rent" ads, I may face homelessness and could be living in a cardboard box under a bridge. My past residence: I sold my condo in Toronto and moved to Mississauga for cleaner air and less traffic congestion. In the past 10 years I have been living in a leased condo in the Square One area. I have moved out of the condo as condo living has become unaffordable, my landlord said I am the best tenant ever, reference is available. Currently I am living in a rooming house for short term lease as my landlord will be migrating to US later this year, reference is also available. My desired living enviroment: I like a room with big west facing window. I like a private bathroom with a bathtub or a clear, uncongested bathroom with a sparkling clean bathtub shared with only one other tenant. I believe scrubbing my body with small quantity of water and recycling the water is more energy efficient then letting clean water continuously flow down the drain in a standing shower while my body is squeaky clean like a dish. I like a clean, uncongested kitchen counter to prepare my meat and vegetables to be stored in my mini-frigs. I will be euphoric if the house is in the vicinity of woods as I love exercising and jogging in the oxygenated woods (Richard Jones Park, Deer Run Park are my favorite woody playground, but there could be other unexplored parks). My current rent budget: $900, incrementing annually in line with inflation rate. Move in date: July 1 Lease term: Very long term, 10 to 25 years. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- My creativity: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt8mfjYuw5ZJvRZd5qEMYPg/videos?view=0&sort=da |
