How Many Months to Build A Town-Home?

[PIX]

I purchased a freehold town-home in The Bell Estate development. The lot hasn't been excavated as yet and is in the "Permit and Sitting" stage with 157 days and counting until closing. How fast can a builder complete a new home? Should I be concerned that there could be a second delay in my closing date The builder is Brookfield Homes.

Welcome to construction delay hell. Very, very, very common.

In my case the construction was delayed and but once it got started it was going well... until the cement truckers went on strike.

To put it another way, it's not uncommon for a respected builder to be years behind the original move-in date.

I am searching for somebody who has bought and just taken possession of a condo - at the stage where not everything is finished.
Is anybody in that position in downtown Toronto?

We are looking for a person in that situation to interview for a documentary on condos that will air on CBC.

Can anybody connect me with a condo buyer in that stage of the process??

I have seen delays that could hold up pretty long.
