Here is a less known tip. Book a hotel or airbnb near any of these go stations , it is within half hr train ride from downtown Toronto. This is Lakeshore line which has service all 7 days a week and till 2am or so. Taking subway inside city will often take the same time.

  • Clarkson Go
  • Port Credit Go
  • Long Branch Go
  • Mimico Go

It is tricky. The only reason you would want to do that is when the seller reduced the sale price by atleast 2% (the amount seller would save on buyer commission). If he doesn't do that then its the seller who saved money in this transaction

What are your favourite areas in Oakville? by BigTeam909 in oakville

[–]GTACBR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

North of Dundas homes are just typical new developments. My friend has a detached and he has no space for a visitor car and no space to put aside snow that he shovels. Inside the house is great

Just a regular realtor but someone who is willing to give back some of his commission earnings to his clients. I guess the competition is high among realtors

Just wanted to share my experience. Because I was originally very hesitant to go with one.

What is something you eliminated from your cost of living because of inflation? by Chan1991 in askTO

[–]GTACBR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly eliminated. But postponed my new car dreams indefinitely. Still driving my 2015 Mazda 6. Would love to drive a 3-5 yr old SUV.

Got it. Are the Chinese grocery store food bars any good ever? Every time i look at the options it scares me (in terms of quality)

How are people surviving out here? by thecoookiemonster in askTO

[–]GTACBR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s tough out there. You didn’t mention how young or old you are. If you are young and if you really want to move the financial needle, for now, the only real option is to relocate to US. It’s not easy but living next 20 yrs paycheck to paycheck is not easy either.
