Grace says she got a deal on this rental when the previous tenant moved out unexpectedly. “When I saw the ad, they were looking for someone to move in the next day so they didn’t raise the price even though this was at the beginning of the housing crisis. I really lucked out,” she writes.

“With the exception of the rental price, my apartment is very much a Vancouverite apartment. It’s become a love letter to the city. Over the years, I’ve picked things up from different neighborhoods, like the horse lamp in my living room from Grandview and the faux hide rug in the dining area from Kits,” Grace writes.

Thanks, Grace!
