Dear Friends,

We are a family of 5 ...just thinking of looking for an accommodation at Kennedy & Brichmount,Eglinton & Bircmount and Eglinton & Kennedy Intersections. Will be glad to connect with Desis in that locality and to know more about the locality in terms of schooling,safety and Grocery shopping day to day.
How can I get an apartment within first week of landing,as Cargo will come after my arrival there in the month of May 2014.If anyone residing in the above mentioned area,if don't mind please contact me so that I can take their help and support in grabing 2 bedrooms flat.(No relative or friend in Canada Sad)
Apt.should be close to the subway line as I might not be driving and buying car immediately.
Can we lease an apt. for 6 months?
Any factory jobs in Scarborough?and wages per hour?because need to fetch an odd job immediately after landing.
Appreciate feedback and comments....

Please advise if anyone can help this....
Thanks
