Meet Lily
Hi there, I’m Lily — your friendly neighbourhood building manager, tenant-wrangler, and queen of the “just one more thing” to-do list.


Welcome to Lily Daily Dwelling, a property manager blog filled with rental life hacks, behind-the-scenes stories, and helpful chaos-control tips for buildings, tenants, and the people who manage them (hi, yes, it’s me again).
By day, I manage long-term rentals, handle midnight maintenance calls (yes, even the ones about lightbulbs), and ensure everything from entry closets to fire drills is in top shape. By night, I write it all down—so you don’t have to learn it the hard way.
Here you’ll find:
Real-life stories (like that time a towel tried to take down a whole plumbing system),
Rental life hacks to make managing or renting a home smoother,
And bite-sized wisdom for building managers who want to stay sane while juggling 57 emails, 8 key sets, one phone conversation, and 3 missed calls—all at the same time.
Whether you're a tenant, a fellow manager, or just someone who’s ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of a well-run building—this is the place for you.
So grab your coffee, tuck in your toolbelt (or your throw blanket), and come dwell with me. Because behind every door, there's a story... and a to-do list.
💬 Until the next blog post...
Read a few of my true stories, and email me your funniest building moment—whether you're a manager or a tenant.
Want me to polish it up and publish it in a future post? Let me know, I’d love to share your chaos (anonymously or not—your call)!
(Don’t forget the juicy details!)
