Not a fan of the house or the busy fucking road I'm besides. It's super small, can't entertain, I'm just done with it.

Yeah, I can't complain about the prices when I see what you guys are dealing with. It will be anywhere from 420-450k.

I haven't found much on MLS that I'd pay a similar price for in the area I want to live in. I've been on it almost everyday for the past 2 weeks, lol.

Smart move. My budget is pretty much listed above, 450k would be the higher limit without being house poor and eating Ramen everynight. I'm doing this on a single income.

^ Have been saying that for years.
Don't care about house size, never have, raised in an apartment. Location > everything else. Being close to work + amenities is most important for me.

I go into Toronto (ny) weekly....please tell me how awesome it is driving on Sheppard finch or steeles between dufferin and Vic part. It's a fucking joke especially north of 401. Are right up disaster is kill myself if had to deal with that. wat. i drive in daily. i can fly down sheppard all the way from vic park to yonge easily. lol you sly nikkra, put a disclaimer that you work an odd shift and you never actually drive in peak hours like most of us
True, but sometimes i have to go to the other hospital's location at bathurst and finch during rush hour. even then it's still not bad at all, sheppard to bayview to finch across and i'm there in 10mins.

My wife is the 81%, I am the 19%. Now when I say this, her idea of walkable is being close to a subway line and would forgo anything bigger to accomplish that. I on the other hand would want space and would look further out (not talking sticks) to get it.

i agree. i'd prefer a new construction house a bit more out for more space rather than a old house with none closer to the city. that's just me tho.
What people say and what they do are two completely different things.
you mean people don't like bringing their lawnmower through the house so they can cut their 4ft x 4ft back yard? but so close to city.

What people say and what they do are two completely different things. SOOOOOOOOOOOO true. What really kills me is when people get fixated on an idea of what they "think" they want, without quantifying it. I'd love to know big tasty's wife's reasoning on the subway station. Assuming she works DT, her only use of the subway is to get to work right? Assuming 40-50 minutes ride...she'd probably get faster to work from Pickering Port Union express GO train as an example. So all need for a subway is eliminated and big tasty gets a bigger home. And my favourite example is Hatorade's argument for paying 300k+ premium for a home off the 404 vs. 407 (north markham vs. east markham). Not going to open up that can of worms, but just sayin
LOL, fuck paying to use a highway foo!

lol a out fucking time they did something with that field. Prices are nuts, I guess it's not bad compared to angus glen where an attached garage home will start around the same price as these. Damn chinAr money.
I want to put a clean firm offer on a poorly customized 50x125, 3800 sq ft, 2 car garage home in Angus Glen for 1.9 and the seller won't even entertain my offer. W...T...F...? Hurts even more knowing they paid 1.2 3 years ago.
