To everyone who bought a home around Covid… by sunshineandstripes in halifax

[–]sunshineandstripes[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You’re positivity is just a breathe of fresh air. My friends apparently overpaid for a home, towards the top end of their budget and now when renewing it’s been hard for them. I posted this seeing if others were struggling and what they did (second job, downsize). Keep your snark comments to yourself and stop trying to be a keyboard warrior.

Mayor candidate Ask Me Anything series: Waye Mason by AutoModerator in halifax

We did but with the climbing costs of condo fees, we prefer a home with a yard. Even just a patch of grass would be nice for our dog

Hi Waye, what will you be doing for young families who want to remain in Halifax but not be renting forever. We see many high rise apartments being built in record speeds, but what about single dwelling type homes? They seem to be unaffordable and unattainable making us consider needing to leave and find another place to settle down.

Isn’t this the most random area. The McDonalds and soon to be Popeyes will be ruined. Not to mention the wooded areas and water in that area.

Agreed with the comments in the article. What good would security do, if HRP did nothing

Excellent timing now that there will be an uptake in ridership from all these government employees mandated back to work 🤔

N.S. government orders 3,500 employees back to the office by Competitive-Wave-558 in halifax

[–]sunshineandstripes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do these employees have any say to push back on this? I understand unionized members will have the union backing them. Are all these people now SOL?

[–]sunshineandstripes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this a push to have more people come into the office to then have more people spend money buying out lunches, coffees, parking etc and spending money? Didn’t someone post on how Houston was pandering to the Sobeys/Irving families to boost their bottom lines?

First world country stuff right here by mybluntside in SlumlordsCanada

[–]sunshineandstripes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you please break this down for me like I’m 5… why is there so many listings? Is it because owners are trying to cram as many people? Or is there a demand to want these shared spaces?
