unwelcome news on new year's day

We've just received word that our application for an apartment suitable for our growing family has been denied. No explanation given, just no. The real estate agent involved forwarded the credit bureau reports we had to have done for the application so at least we got something out of the scramble for references and the paperwork and the on-site visit and the budget review and annoying our landlady by a) telling her we're looking and b) asking her to do a reference check the day she arrived from India.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is the final indicator that it's time we left Toronto. With just one income, this city is too expensive.
