Hi there,

My name is Leon Gritsyuk and I am starting the Film Production program at VFS in June. I grew up in Thornhill, Ontario, and previously attended York University, finishing with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Film Production. I am passionate about the arts, not just in filmmaking, but also in music composition, graphic design, photography, and I am looking to expand my creative attributes in VFS, as well as collaborate with any fellow students and creatives.

I am looking for a place around the campus, but am open to further distances. My main hope, distance wise, is to at least be in the Zone 1 area of the transit system as this will most likely be my main mode of transportation throughout my stay. I prioritize in cleanliness and communication when it comes to chores or running errands, but I also do respect privacy and reduction of noise when asked or needed. If anyone is looking to rent in a group, or is offering something what I am looking for, please feel free to message me! I am truly excited to be trying something new, and I hope to make some great memories alongside others.

Although VFS screens accommodation postings to filter out questionable offers, it is important for students to be alert and take appropriate precautions.

Use caution and vigilance when dealing with prospective landlords as there are many scammers targeting renters in Vancouver. Please read through How to spot a scam for steps you can take to protect yourself before you start contacting prospective landlords or roommates through the Roommate Board.

  • Never send money to a location outside of Vancouver
  • If possible, you, or a friend, should physically view the property
  • Make sure there is a physical address and check it on a map
  • Make sure that you have all details of the individual providing the listing: where they work, full name, address, phone number, etc.
  • Always ensure that you are going to be able to meet the landlord or manager of the property in person to receive the keys and inspect the apartment together
  • Note that SIN, bank account, and credit card number are not required to rent an apartment
  • When you receive a contract, please read the full text (and the fine print) carefully and be sure you understand it fully before you sign. VFS is not responsible for terms and conditions imposed by third-party services.
  • Follow your instincts. Anything that seems too good to be true, probably is — and may be a scam.
