Anywhere from a month to a year.  That's kinda part of the problem, I don't really know, and don't want to get locked into a 1 year lease.

I can't really address what is normal as my carreer has been anything but normal.

As for a rental. What I would propose is you and Tina could take over the main floor of my house and I could live in the basement. The kitchen would have to be shared and the upstairs shower/tub as I only have a two piece bath down below.

It would be completely month by month but I'd have to say no longer than a year. The idea is you would be your helping me out over a financial hump and I am helping you out while you wait on your house. I don't need or want a tennant on a go forward basis.

Whatever rent I come up with would be inclusive of utilities. You'd have to store a majority of your furniture elsewhere as I am completely furnished.

As for parking and commuting I have room for about 5 cars in total but it is a single lane driveway so there would be lots of "shuffling" of cars. I am located just off the DVP halfway between the Gardiner/QEW and the 401 at Don Mills. VERY quiet upper middle class neighbourhood and a very "suburban" setting considering my proximity to downtown, you'd be quite surprised actually.

At any rate next time you are in the area make a point of having a look at least.
