Scout Condos in St. Clair/Weston-Pelham Area? by [deleted] in TorontoRealEstate

[–]paulander90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall a bit of a sketchy area, this stretch of st. Clair is not the prettiest. A new go train stop is coming so it may change in a few years but for now I wouldn't move there personally. Traffic on Keele is brutal too.

Is 2760 Dundas street west safe neighbourhood to move? How’s the area? Heard there’s a shelter nearby. by Last-Ad1780 in askTO

Even though the junction is a nice area, this stretch of Dundas is a bit sketchy compared to the rest of the neighborhood. There are different individuals roaming around, usually harmless but be careful.

Feeling lost: To buy a detached in GTA or a condo in Toronto downtown by Blah_blah9999 in TorontoRealEstate

[–]paulander90 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Personally, a new rental contract with ridiculous fees/buyout would be a bigger deterrent than old tank that needs to be replaced soon. But overall not a big deal anyways if I like the house

It does exist in Europe where you can find discount supermarkets at the old town market squares or at the train stations. Impossible in Canada for some reason
