That can cost a lot of money. If • you know what questions you need answered in advance, this will save • you time in the long run. The people on the other end will know • exactly what you want and you will not have to call back for more 0 information. • Some organizations, particularly Aboriginal housing organizations, e have long waiting lists. If you want an apartment/house in urban 0 Aboriginal housing, you should get your name on the list as soon as • possible. • Don't give up.
