phone interview: Affordable apartments that were posted online were scooped up almost immediately, leading her to constantly scour Kijiji, Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace, according to CTV. I would say within the hour of some places going up they'd get so many replies the owner couldn't answer any more, Fagan said in a phone interview. But when she started looking, the 31-year-old found there was almost nothing in her price range of 1,200-a-month, much less a two-bedroom that accepted animals. Someone we know is a homeowner in St-Henri, and her neighbour said that within an hour of putting up her duplex for rent, she got about 300 responses. Fagan and her fiance managed to find a new apartment meeting their criteria, but it meant leaving St-Henri for nearby Cote-des-Neiges, where they've settled in to the top unit of a fourplex. Fagan's story has become a common one this year in Montreal, where the lowest vacancy rate in decades has led to a mad scramble to find housing and, according to housing advocates, is threatening the city's reputation for affordable rent.
