We're moving to Guildwood next week from our downtown Condo, pretty much for most of the reasons you mentioned above. One item you mentioned above that I've heard before as well, concerns me a bit, that the area tends to be very Caucasian. Would you say there is a sense of intollerance in the...

Wow, thanks for that very detailed explanation. It really does clear up a lot, and based on your description, I can see how KW might charge a premium. Thanks!

I'm being told that Keller Williams has a 60 / 40 split with their agents, where their agents pay KW 40% brokerage fees. Does this sound possible/practical? I later heard that Remax currently has the highest brokerage fees, and they are only 20%. Is that correct?

15 minute walk from cityplace to the financial district.

Thanks ... I didn't realize that I had missed the parking and locker. Thanks for bringing it up.

you presumed incorrectly, the unit comes with both a locker and parking.

Some of the comments on this thread are just rediculous. As we all know, you get what you pay for. The unit isn't the largest unit, but the layout is amazing imo, and for 1 or 2 people, looking for an affordable condo in an amazing location, with a great view, this is the place for you...

Sold

Oh yeah ... the internet speeds are awsome ... smokes download speeds even from work!

I'm pretty sure I didn't ask for opinions on the condo ... wait, let me double check that ... yup, no requests for opinions. But thanks anyway!
