I would like to agree that these neighbourhoods are more resistant, but is it possible that these rentals are lower in rent because they get subsidy money from the government through the rent they collect? I mean that this is not the truest definition of government housing, but compared to...

Riverdale, Are you telling me that the construction of new facilities are not capital costs and that hydro is? I have always thought that hydro was a operating expense, just as rent, water, phone, internet, wages, etc would be. Guess you learn something new every day. As to what a...

Solaris, It has been my experience here that most of the members are open minded. I just had to let my unique style of humour out with that last post. Also, it's nice to see that there are those who wish to know more about areas of the city that are as you say less known. I also have to...

I think AKS makes a very valid point to the ppsf. I agree that overall, the condo market has a much higher ratio, however the new home (single detached, semi detached, and town home) market generally has properties that are 2 times or greater in size. What I mean is that you may pay $350,000...

I'm sorry Johnzz, I do not understand the meaning of your ???. I thought that that part of my post was understandable, but I would be glad to explain my point further. At the present time, the majority of new construction that consists of housing which exceed $400,000 are in the new home...

I was thinking about this and thought that maybe someone else has considered this too. We as home-buyers, owners, and potential purchasers have legitimate concern on how this HST is going to affect them, the new developments, and the people building these projects. What I wonder though is, has...

Wow... Condocraze, you're viewpoints, opinions, and comments are exceptionally educated and well informed. I'm sorry that my comments on the project and area are sub-par, ill-mannered, and completely useless gibberish. I should really learn to not type the things on my mind because I clearly...

I love the little quips about the whole off-duty at construction sites thing. I do have a couple of comments on this though. Even if I believe that I do not agree that the police have the right to dictate the number of officers that might be required for the 'paid-duty' services that it...

I noticed that this question was asked earlier, but still left unanswered. What is the implication of this tax on the contracts that are currently out? What I mean by that is that if you have signed on a new home or condo and it is in pre-construction, does the fact that you have signed...

So I was doing some info seeking today and came across this article about the neighbourhood in Toronto Life. http://www.torontolife.com/guide/real-estate/west/dovercourt-wallace-emerson-junction/ It's nice to see that this community is starting to get some positive recognition. In my...

I just thought that i would post a follow-up to my previous post. I can start off by saying Bermybob, I am pleased to say that we are now neighbours. Or at the very least co-owners in our respective shares of dirt and air space, as I too have taken an upper level unit in this project...

Hatfield, I was there a few days ago and will be back in the morning to make a go/no go decision on this development. I do not know the exact numbers that are left, but the prices are fairly reasonable. Also, maintenance fees are dirt cheap compared to the rest of the city. As for occupancy...
