Have any forum members moved in yet to 39 Queens Quay? Does anyone know if the mailboxes are installed or if Rogers/Bell service is working etc etc.

To be honest, I had a fairly good inspection and turnover. I had about 30 issues in the suite including many of the ones that you listed. However, I have been quite happy with the customer service at Concert. They have addressed almost all issues. I only have a couple of scratched floorboards...

If you are on the 8th-10th floor then the master bed configuration would most likely not be the same since you would be style C9 and my unit is D16. Regardless, in my master bed there is an outlet on the east facing baseboard south of the pillar.

Yes, there should be a socket on the south side and on the west side on the base boards close to the pillar. See photo.

Concert will grant access to the unit for the appraisal post-pdi. They understand the requirement for the lender to have an appraisal done prior to finalizing mortgage details.

There is also the factor that some units at the north end and at the south end of the building have very large outdoor spaces. Those units should fetch a nice premium.

Here are some pics I took yesterday during my PDI. They include: - Some Common Elements - Gym - Condo I've included a couple of panoramas as well.

I received the statement of adjustments from my lawyer yesterday. If I'm reading it right closing costs as far as the builder is concerned are approx $5k.

That's right since there is no 'interim occupancy' and we are moving to 'final closing', if anyone has a mortgage, an appraisal must be done prior to the closing date. The appraiser will need access to the unit. I just called the property manager and she doesn't seem to have a clue. They said...

Anyone know how to schedule 'appraisals' for mortgage purposes? Can this be done at the same time as the PDI?

Registration estimated for 3rd Week of September. Final Closings beginning 30 days after that.

I would say the most important bit of news is that they are expecting the building to be registered in the 3rd week of September with 'Final Closings' starting about 30 days after that. So if your interim occupancy date is October 20th or later you would go straight to final closing with no...
