I was wondering if anybody knows from personal experience if landlords would accept prepaid advance rent, in lieu of paystubs etc?
The reason I am asking is for when my husband and I relocate to Canada, obviously it will take more than a couple of weeks to find employment and get a paystub. We want to get our own place right away and avoid staying with family and friends for too long. I know it depends on the individual, but would some landlord accept upfront 6 months rent for example, in lieu of employment? I am Canadian Citizen, my husband would be the new PR, if that changes anything. This would be in Ontario.
