Are there more Single Family Home Rentals out there??

We are moving to Vancouver from the states so this is all new to me for the area.

I've been checking Craigslist, FB Marketplace, Kijiji, Zillow, rentals.ca all for the past few months and it feels like there just aren't a lot of options out there? Like on CL, it's the same 5 rentals that are priced too high and keep renewing... and then maybe every other week, a new one will actually pop up.

My big question: Will more rentals pop up in June as the end of school comes up?

My Follow-up info: I AM being a bit picky (for reasons) so I get that there might not be a lot that pops up specifically where I'm looking, but I thought there would be MORE than what I'm seeing, at least. My geographic parameters are between Granville and Main anywhere from VGH down to Marpole.

What am I missing here?

Keeping my US cell phone - is it possible?

We're moving to Vancouver this summer and we still have a year left on our cell phone contracts (got a "free" phone).

  1. If we cut the plans, we have to pay the balance on the phone ($700-$800 approximately)

  2. Our plans DO include US/CAN/MEX free roaming, but limited data usage outside the US - this would be rough since I'm out and about a lot so this may be a dealbreaker for us anyway.

  3. I've heard of others keeping their cell phones after moving from the US, but mixed-bag on how it went... most say that their US cell providers never knew or said anything even though technically they COULD cancel the contract.

  4. If we DO choose to change over to a Canadian provider, are there any that would pay off our phone to switch over? My guess is that would typically be reserved for switching from a competitor within Canada, not from the US, but worth a shot?

Looking for recommendations for small companies that do paver install.

My scope:

Remove driveway, install pavers, install real grass with some irrigation work.

I had a guy who’s done a lot of work for me and recently finished a project at roughly $8/sq ft for the pavers… but he’s now ghosted me.
