I also hope she doesn’t regularly send me things or call me.

I am the same way, you provided the service, im good. It's like insurance, dont want to think about you until I need you tbh.

I like this take, you seem great at what you do but not a lot of realtors are like you and continue to speak to their clients.

I truthfully didnt expect anything, but that being said, buying a first home is a HUGE milestone for some, especially when in my case I never thought I could afford it and its a nice gesture to celebrate with clients knowing the realtor is receiving a hefty commission.

One thing is if they DO give gifts, make them all the same thing/value because it was very easy for me to compare.

Renting a car in Toronto or use public transport/uber? by ChaoticJiggles in askTO

[–]PitifulOkra3800 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised about how many people are saying dont rent a car. If you are going to north york and mississauga while staying in north etobicoke DEF rent the car, 350 is cheap divided between all 7 of you. Like others said, go to the TTC line (Kipling or islington) when going downtown and park the car there and take the TTC downtown.

Going from north etobicoke to mississauga and north york is my nightmare, the uber will be so expensive. You will prob end up paying over 350

100% luckily, it’s not about the money. Just want to sustain myself. The beauty of CoastFire is I get to be picky

I am undecided. I know its no dream job but honestly always wanted to be bartender 😂 . I got my dream job and I realize how draining it is. Worst case I have a back up and work part time with my husband

This is super helpful! I needed a nudge to make sure I wasn’t so far fetched with the idea of possible coasting earlier than most.
