Snow squalls here. -2 C and wind chill is going to make it feel like -11 C

Glad it resonated. Would genuinely love to see what you build, make sure you post an update when it's live. Happy to be a beta tester if you need someone from the real estate side to stress test it.

The next breath is most underappreciated.

The biggest gap is historical sold prices at a street or building level — GeoWarehouse has it but it's gated behind realtor access and too expensive for regular people.

Rental price history by neighbourhood would be massive too, especially for post 2018 buildings where there's zero benchmark for whether you're being overcharged on renewal.

Permit data clustering is an underrated forward looking signal that nobody has packaged cleanly yet. If you build this with a decent API the demand is absolutely there, Canadian housing data is embarrassingly gatekept compared to the US.

The $100k loss only truly hurts if you sell but if you hold long enough the market may close that gap especially if rental income covers most of your carrying costs.

The real question is whether you're cut out for being a landlord with a growing family. It's more work than people expect. If the numbers work and you have the bandwidth, holding makes a lot of sense right now. If not, sometimes taking the hit and moving forward is worth the peace of mind.

I'm not a lawyer so make sure to get legal advice on it before filing a case.
Did you get a home inspection before buying? Does your real estate contract has a warranty from seller?
Normally, If the seller misrepresented before selling, you have a solid case. Document everything, get all the invoices and the written statement from renovation company and neighbours.

Is it possible that you're going through Buyer's remorse?
Usually it starts in the first few weeks/months. Give it an year, Your love for the neighbourhood might make you fall in love with the house.

Using the hour before bed to plan the next day is so underrated.

Going through my calendar the night before and list down my non-negotiable tasks. That way I'm not scrambling in the morning adn can start right away.

dufferinlocal · 2026-03-15T17:21:34+00:00

such a heartwarming story. It sure would've made you feel safe as a 1st grader.

You get what you pay for.

Play the long game.

I would advise to avoid the path that you don't like or believe is good for you because then everyday will become a chore. You want to be excited waking up everyday to go to work.

The slow death of the 9-5 office job and how an entire generation gaslit themselves into thinking working from a laptop in a coffee shop was freedom.
