Hmm, you sure that's it? Because i just checked with Tridel and they have condos all the way up in MARKHAM that START at 350K! On second thought, those are two-bedroom.

Why don't you rent one of the condos they are building in place of the guv?? I know starsearcher, Tordan, Malek and RJ already have thier units !!

Originally posted by d!abolic How much would a one-bedroom condo with view of the lake run? It seems like quite a few of them are being built right now alongside the Gardiner. And does anyone know which builders are selling those? P.S. Are they still planning to expand the Gardiner, or take it underground? It's absolutely unusable from 4 to 6, and i can't even imagine how bad it'll get once all those new buildings are up!

If you have $60 000 to put down then find a real estate agent. Why is this being asked in a Trance forum?

d!abolic, ud be surprised @ what u could find for a reasonable price if u really look and ofcourse, if you are lucky. The LOFT condos, just a little further west on the gardiner are a good price for a good size...
My fiance and I were condo shopping earlier this year and were looking to get a condo overlooking the lake, but we opted for another one @ Islington & Queensway (We can still see the lake from there lol). Remember @ winter time it is VERY cold by the lake, it can smell in the summer...

Islington & Queensway. We're neighbors then! You guys must live in the beige stucco building? How much did that set you back?

Hehe, we WILL be neighbours actually... our condo isn't built yet, supposed to be finished by the end of 2005. We are gonna be right across the theatre there, beside the LCBO
It costs $218 and I have to get back to u on the square ft...not too big, but its on 2 of the top floors, def a good investment.
Where are you located??

SS

Ahh right, i know where that is! Two of the top floors... it's a two-storey condo? I'm a few blocks North-East.

why? why? why? honestly i dont understand why anyone would ever want to buy a condo. i mean why buy a condo when you can buy a house? a house sits on a piece of land that is always there and always increases in value. a condo is in a building that you dont own and there is no piece of land that belongs to you. all you own is about 700-900 square feet in a building.
go with a house. if the condo building burns down or a plane flies into it then you have nothing left, but if you have a house and the same thing happens at least you still have the land to do with as you please.

oh well i dont know much about real estate and all that crap but personally i would never buy a condo coz you are in a building with tons of other people and you never really have full privacy and full control over what you do and when you do it, and you have no land. land is an important thing to own IMO.
