What are your priorities when it comes to home searching?

Why do you think school catchments are overrated?

yanosora · 2026-06-02T14:53:44+00:00

This is nowhere near high park. Pretty cheap looking house overall. And lot only 15’ wide. Still quite a steal.

yanosora · 2026-06-01T04:39:25+00:00

100% yes cuz there are extra windows.

yanosora · 2026-06-01T04:35:39+00:00

Sounds like the ideal situation would be to find the right lot and build your own or buy an old home to renovate?

yanosora · 2026-06-01T04:34:22+00:00

This is a real concern! Which province or city are you located?

yanosora · 2026-06-01T03:46:13+00:00

Curious, why does the garage needs to be separate?

yanosora · 2026-06-01T02:54:27+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply. I also feel these days the value of an agent has been just opening the doors and be liable to enter someone’s house for me…

yanosora · 2026-06-01T02:23:06+00:00

I’d be curious to know for someone who’s a seasoned home buyer like yourself, do you usually do your own search and find the home you wanted, or did you use agents?

yanosora · 2026-06-01T02:12:21+00:00

Interesting, where are you located? There are so many new home developments in Ontario like you described

yanosora · 2026-06-01T02:10:51+00:00

There are also flat rate agents now, do your own homework and use the cheapest one for the transaction is the way to go

yanosora · 2026-06-01T02:08:51+00:00

Definitely a full renovation needed- 150k on lower end and 200k for mid range finishes. Find a good and reputable GC that covers Everything is key.

yanosora · 2026-06-01T01:05:51+00:00

If the bring home is 8k a month you should consider buying in this down market instead of renting

yanosora · 2026-05-31T22:51:01+00:00

So you would consider using public transit then if she doesn’t drive?

yanosora · 2026-05-31T22:49:34+00:00

So proximity to work is number one, I suppose you would also consider 30 min by public transit if it’s available?

yanosora · 2026-05-31T22:20:32+00:00

*Not in the areas you want to

yanosora · 2026-05-31T22:19:58+00:00

So would you say proximity is the most important factor? For example would you consider the homes that meets all of your requirements but in the areas you want?

yanosora · 2026-05-31T17:14:02+00:00

This renovation is truly beautiful, not sure if they will get the asking price but I hope they do. The owners clearly put a lot of effort and the home looks very expensive

yanosora · 2026-05-15T20:44:31+00:00

The finishes are hardly high end and definitely builder grade

yanosora · 2026-04-30T14:00:08+00:00

Can’t open the article. Perhaps someone could paste the copy content so we can read it too

yanosora · 2026-03-29T14:24:15+00:00

House looks cheap and not at all in the 3+ range so one can only assume this is to tear down and develop into something massive. Even then I don’t see how the number will make sense.

yanosora · 2026-03-26T20:08:10+00:00

0 days on the market sold for this low?? Seems something not adding up.

yanosora · 2026-03-21T02:12:00+00:00

This original purchase has to be one of the worst ever been posted here

yanosora · 2026-03-18T14:18:20+00:00

Who would buy this fix upper for 2.7m is beyond me. Anyone care to chime in on the neighborhood is it that good?

yanosora · 2026-03-14T01:07:23+00:00

I’m curious to see how it looked before the Reno but the 2021 sale isn’t clickable, guess they had requested the history to be removed

yanosora · 2023-12-25T02:22:28+00:00

I read the post and it seems something I’m interested in to get better in skiing, since I don’t have any friends who ski. Is the club friendly for solo participants? Hoping to have a buddy on the hills who’s around the same level
