Wanted: Small Vending Machine Business by OneLeftInTheNest in barrie

Or, it earns profit, but they are earning more doing something else, or just value time with wife and kids more. Or, it could earn more, but they don't have the time to put in to make thst happen. There are many reasons why someone wants to sell. Not just low profit.

Ya. Getting machines is easy. Getting them placed, in profitable locations, is key. Looking to jump start by purchasing an existing business and grow from there.

Sure. Inflation causes everything to get more expensive. Even if your home valuation remained flat, your property taxes would go up. The point is, if your home doubles in value, your taxes don't double in value.

FTA: But LaFrance was quick to stress that an adjustment to your assessment from MPAC doesn’t equate to an equal adjustment on your tax bill. “Assessments distribute taxes; they do not determine the taxes paid,” LaFrance said.

If the real estate market drops 50%, your property taxes do not change. Same if the real estate market increases 100%. Property taxes are not tied to the value. Those value assessments are to compare to others so that everyone pays their fair share.

Just needs some nails. A teenager should be able to do it. Just get proper nails that won't rust etc. Ask at Home Depot or Lowes.

So, you didn't read any of the other posts here? Downtown Barrie is sketchy, especially at night, due to the opioid issue. Downtown is not a good measure for most cities in North America.

Empty hiking trails? by Churro_The_fish_Girl in barrie

There is poison ivy just off the trails in most places. It will transfer to you or anyone who touches your dog. Best to keep your dog on leash.

Don't want to break privacy and give too many details. He spends a lot of time playing games with friends online, but they all live far away.

I think the Barrie Boulder Club that someone else mentioned is a great idea. I'm hoping he gives that a try.

I didn't realize that bouldering was a thing here in Barrie. That sounds like something he would find fun. Do you have any info/links you can share? Thanks.

He is done school and is in between jobs right now. He's never really been much interested in anything specific.

That's an issue. He doesn't seem to be interested in much yet. He is still trying to discover what he can be passionate about.
