Thanks for the videos. I have a question how much can a normal worker can save monthly after paying bills? Is it possible to save more than Europe? Thanks a lot
The rooms are so small😭😭😭. Are the 2 beds usually this small or this is just a standard one. I'll feel trapped, need to double my hustle so one can afford a bigger living area. Thanks for giving an insight, the rooms remind me of my UK room...... It was a bit depressing, I thought Canada had more landmass and hence bigger spaces.
The apartment reminded me of my first in the US. It was a town house but a 2bed 1 bath. I almost screamed as the hausa girl that I am the first time I saw it. The only thing I could think of what if all my bridal furniture was shipped to the US 🤣🤣 . Then it made me appreciate home more (Nigeria). But paying for laundry? Wow, I would be hissing all the time if I ever were to do so. I will kuku wash with my hands. I love that it has enough storage space, I live for space, lots of it!
Hahahaha, I would have opted for the washing by hand, except that there we have snow more than half the year. I can wash but no where to dry the clothes. So I close my eyes and pay. Thanks sis
i live in one of these apartments in saskatoon and to do laundry is 2.50 each (washing and drying) soo 5.00 for one load of laundry but there also a chance of people stealing clothes for no freaking reason
Great job Marina...kudos! It's a nice apartment for starting life in Canada. The apartment looks like mine, difference is the laundry. I've tried the shared laundry thing in the US and it didn't work for me, so in-unit laundry was very important to me because I can wash for Africa and prefer to do my laundry at night or early morning. We appreciate the effort Marina. Keep soaring! And you look great!
Hi ma'am awaiting eagerly for your next vlog. Please release soon. Also I have some topics if you are interested please do it in upcoming vlogs. 1. Which type of house in Saskatoon or Regina is safe to live as a single and family. Ex: Town house, detached, basement. And pricing and affordability of living. 2. Part time job opportunities and pay structure. 3. Benefits as Canadian citizen. 4. Weather conditions of every season and how to Prepare for it. 5. Working culture and holidays. 6. How to make savings 7. Threats and good of Saskatoon/Regina Thanks in Advance, Your loyal fan Riyas 🙂
Thank you for the suggestions. I have talked about a number of these topics already. Please look through my channel, especially the series "common mistakes immigrants make" and you will find a lot of it. I will note the part time opportunities and talk about them.
This is very spacious for an apartment. I don't like the part where one will have to be paying for each wash, I rather have my own machine 😁. Wow, the furnished one is so homely.
Had to come back and comment cos I forgot. All i wanted to say is Nigerian house tours have left the building. Like, reminds me of my Dubai apartment and not those dungeons KC was showing me 😂😂 ok kidding
Wow the apartment really looks beautiful... I also love the fact that it has enough storage spaces Really did Enjoyed watching this tour Weldone sis More grease 👍👍👍
Is that ghetto green lol??? i grew up there still got friends there during the day its alright kind of at night is when all the shit starts to happen and the hoods only a few blocks away nice apartment shitty area lol
The apartment is nice love the living room space and it has a dining space but rooms are a little small but really ok for new comers like you said.. the show apartment is cool love the arrangement 💯💯
Thanks for the video very educative. I would love to ask how many sq foot is the apartment also the bed in the last apartment is it a twin bed or a queen bed and can you do a video on different relators based on people experience. for example, when I check online most people complain about Mainstreet but their apartments are cheap. I will appreciate if you can talk a little about realtors in British Columbia and Ontario thanks. how can we choose a good realtor for renting? This will be really be appreciated especially when looking to land after this COVID-19 period. Thanks
The bed is a queen, I believe. When renting, I think the first emphasis should be on your needs and the functionality of the apartment before it is about the realtor. The realtor is important too, no doubt, I just dont know how we will determine which realtor isn't good. The views about Mainstreet are mixed especially because of the areas where most of their apartments are, that's why they are cheap. As for realtors in BC and ON, that may be a challenge as it will not be my first hand experience and I prefer to stay away from hearsays.
You're such a darling. God bless you so much for all you do. I really appreciate the information you dish out all the time and I have learnt a great deal. Thank you once again
Thanks for the video. This tour was indeed epic. But the rooms are small compared to the ones in Naija. Chai abroad life is not easy, paying to wash my clothes. Can't I wash with hand?
This was a really good video. Taking the time to to walk us through the apartment empty and then furnished. I've seen a couple of apartment tours and this is definitely amongst the ones I enjoyed as per details. Thank you sis for all you do.
The apartment is sooo cool, i wish they made the kitchen a bit better or with different cabinet colour. i love love the laundry room, very smart of the property managers. I love the furnished version
I totally agree! The cabinets drove me crazy when I was there. The facility manager mentioned they were changing all of them to how the show suite looks so that should be good.
Can I move in sis? That's quite a big storage space. The rooms are small o😬😬😬 but as far as it's Canada I'd take it🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thank you for showing us Marina. You did great 😊
Hi Mariana, I am hoping to land early next year with my wife and two kids. Which areas do you recommend and which are the best companies to use for apartments?
I have a video on my recommended neighbourhoods and then you can narrow down the search for realtors in the area that you choose to go for. All the best with the move
Thank you for showing us what the apartment looks like!! I was told that for new immigrants it's kind of hard getting an apartment since you don't have much credit record and depending on the realtor you have to demonstrate up to 3 months rent in advance, so not all realtor are willing to rent a unit, it that the case with this one?
Hi Ma'am, How are you. I am an Indian HR with 6 years of experience in Generalist role. I hold MBA in HR. I'm planning to come Canada by 2021. Having 469 crs score. My doubt is that, after coming Canada do I need to pursue Diploma in HR or CHRP certification is enough? Also guide me how long it'll take me to get a job in HR. I've emailed also to you. Thanks
You may be able to get a job without taking the diploma if you have an MBA in HR. You will then need to take the NKE exam to start the CPHR designation journey. How quickly you get a job will depend on your search and network. I will check out the email and respond at the earliest. I have a bit of a backlog at the moment.
Yes, there are fully furnished apartment and they can begin anywhere from $2300 per month. Could be less or more depending on the realtor. I am looking to tour a furnished one as well.
@@MARINAESIRI yup just a lil info.. we got nominated for Saskatchewan so I've been researching alot then I found your channel and it had been quite informative.. we're about to submit final docs to ircc (fingers cross)
I love how far you go in showing us more about life and lifestyles over there in Canada for those of us aspiring to move there.How much does this type of apartment costs if i may ask ma?
Thank you so much Marina for taking out time to do this. I really wish a Nigerian based in Calgary is also doing this so we can get first information from there too. God bless you...keep flourishing!!

Yes you can. You have the option of washing by hand and using only the dryer, especially in the winter.
This was a really good video. Taking the time to to walk us through the apartment empty and then furnished. I've seen a couple of apartment tours and this is definitely amongst the ones I enjoyed as per details. Thank you sis for all you do.
Thanks sis. Been a minute, how have you been?
@@MARINAESIRI I am doing great sis...God is faithful, Thanks for asking!.
Hello Marina, just came across your channel. We met during the bridal shower and at James' family naming ceremony. Good job.
I remember you. Great to have you here and welcome to my UA-cam family.
Happy Sunday babe. Good job. Keep it up. Always dishing out good content s. God will continue to bless you and your family.
Amen! Thanks a lot
I honeslty have never seen a youtube video without dislike! Real cool and informative thanks!
Many thanks😊
Hi Marina, well-done for this video. Pls when you say a 2 bedroom apartment, does it include a basement
No, Apartments dont come with basements. Only some townhouses, two storeys and bi level houses do.
The apartment is sooo cool, i wish they made the kitchen a bit better or with different cabinet colour. i love love the laundry room, very smart of the property managers. I love the furnished version
I totally agree! The cabinets drove me crazy when I was there. The facility manager mentioned they were changing all of them to how the show suite looks so that should be good.
Tiny rooms 😭😭😭. That room apparently won't contain my 3 boys. Serious something! Are all the rooms this way Marina?
Some places have bigger rooms but this is almost typical. You may have to consider bunk beds to manage the space.
Can I move in sis? That's quite a big storage space. The rooms are small o😬😬😬 but as far as it's Canada I'd take it🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thank you for showing us Marina. You did great 😊
Hahaha, that is almost standard here to have tiny rooms, lol. With all of our space, only our houses tiny. Thanks sis
Been looking forward to your video this Sunday, very informative as always.thanks and God bless.
Thank you very much. Please share it😊
Been looking forward to your video this Sunday, very informative as always.thanks and God bless.

Always detailed God bless you please can I DM ma, I have some personal question to ask you on saskatchewan provinces
Please send an email to marina.esiri@gmail.com
Nice video...but how much is this apartnment
It starts from about $1000 a month.
Same things that come with an apartment here.
The furnished first room was very small, I will hit the wall when trying to get out of the bed na🤣🤣
😀😀 somehow we make it work
Hi Mariana, I am hoping to land early next year with my wife and two kids. Which areas do you recommend and which are the best companies to use for apartments?
I have a video on my recommended neighbourhoods and then you can narrow down the search for realtors in the area that you choose to go for. All the best with the move
Good job Marina! Another great vid. Please what size of bed did they have in that room? The room appeared small, can a Queen bed fit?
Will check again. A queen will fit it if the base and head boards are not too big.
This video will be really helpful.. Thanks for sharing
You are welcome anytime
This apartment is a go when I land in SK. Thank you Marina..... you can show more doe 😄
Will bring more options as I am able to. Hopefully, I can get a fully furnished one too
@@MARINAESIRI what state is this located in?
Which neighborhood is this ooo.. im sha doing 3bed. Thanks dear
This is around 33rd street west.
Thanks for sharing this video with us. Will sure make my settling in Canada much easier when the time comes.
Best of luck! Thanks for watching
Thanks for your effort Marina.. Nice vlog
Thanks for watching
Great video. Thank you. Please make more videos like this 😍
Thank you! Will do!
Welcome to our beautiful city, How long have you been here?
Many thanks. Been here about 4.5 years and I absolutely love it.
How much is the furnished apartment
This particular furnished suite is not for rent. Other furnished 2-bedroom apartments could begin anywhere from $2000 monthly
Thank you for showing us what the apartment looks like!!
I was told that for new immigrants it's kind of hard getting an apartment since you don't have much credit record and depending on the realtor you have to demonstrate up to 3 months rent in advance, so not all realtor are willing to rent a unit, it that the case with this one?
These guys are immigrant friendly. You may be required to pay a few months in advance though. Not sure if that has changed.
Thank for the details. What utilities comes with this apartment?
Heating and water comes included in the rent. Power and parking are charged separately
Thanks so much for this. We appreciate your labour of love and selflessness.
Thank you very much
Was keenly waiting to see ensuite rooms 🤣🤣🤣. Seems rooms are not ensuite in the abroad
Apartments don't typically come ensuite. Townhouses and duplexes do.
I just went house hunting in Lagos today and this apartment is luxury here 😥
Oh wow. Sending you hugs 🤗🤗
Great job.thanks for...sharing.
Thanks for watching😊
Thanks for taking out time to share this vital information. You’re appreciated👍🏾
Thank you very much😊
Good video! This will help alot of new comers plan.
Hopefully, people learn and plan properly. Thanks sis
👍 well done sis, my question is the heater panel you showed us, is it all apartments in Canada has has that?
All apartments come with heating. The panel may be slight different across apartments but they all have heating systems.
Ma I think u are beginning to adapt to the extreme cold with the way u reacted to the fridge when u opened it. New temp threshold set 😃
Hahaha, it was hot in the apartment so the fridge was the coolest part in there. I agree though, my cold threshold has increased
Seeing this reminded me of ndatse house hunting video,this house is so clean,ndatse said KC took her to dungeon 😂,but they are small sha
Lol, oh Ndatse. The rooms come really small for some weird reason.
Thanks for this video, very interesting topic.
I sent you an email, pls check and respond.

Much more affordable than what we can get in BC. We really enjoy a lot of space in Naija oo.
BC means Bring cash, lol. It is a whole lot more expensive there. My apartment is Abuja had tiny rooms like this too and it was expensive.
@@MARINAESIRI didn't know that about Abuja.

Please can people share apartment ,also we will like to see studio apartments too. Thank you
Yes, apartments can be shared. Sublets are not unusual here
In my opinion, if you are couples without kids yet,it is advisable, but be the sub landlords, and have yr rules from day one.
Thank you so much Marina for taking out time to do this. I really wish a Nigerian based in Calgary is also doing this so we can get first information from there too. God bless you...keep flourishing!!
