house is for the breeders. condo is for the forever young-ers

nothing wrong with living in the basement of your parent's house, almost rent-free. You can save a lot of money. Some people don't have that luxury, I had to fight and scratch tooth and nail living on my own since I was 17, so consider yourself lucky.

If you guys haven't figured it out yet, this is all staged by Baker Real Estate marketing department. in one queue, that they are all Chinese/Oriental agents and on the other side they are all Hindi/Hebrew speaking agents...

well since my previous thread was closed. Let's bring up the update: One day after TTC voted to increase fare, 2 major disruption occurred 1. Wednesday Nov 18, At noon, college station subway closed, due to some accident, closing northbound and southbound from Union to Bloor 2. Wednesday Nov...

yes, i have... but considering the tube network is more massive, London is much bigger than Toronto, in area as well as in population (plus tourists) the tube is better than TTC

how is it any different from the people in this forum?!?

no nothing like that, you will neighbors in the building, it makes sense to give them a heads-up if there's some sort of noise coming out of your unit. But again, I don't know for sure, find out more details from your RE lawyer

that looks like a good deal!

Baby boomers kids? From wiki '....Canadian boomer as someone born from 1947 to 1966, the years that more than 400,000 babies were born...' Children of the baby boomers should be around 20-37 yrs old now
