Some of this is due to homeowners adapting to the high price of home ownership. Many people are buying homes with a basement apartment in order to help pay their mortgage. The extra income is probably a necessity for many owners.Don't tell anybody but I heard that the City is tolerating "illegal" rooming houses and basement apartments as "affordable housing". Otherwise, the City will have to spend another billion dollars on "community housing".
Then when some one dies in a "illegal' basement apartment fire shit will hit the ceiling. Much like what just happened in San Fran.Don't tell anybody but I heard that the City is tolerating "illegal" rooming houses and basement apartments as "affordable housing".

Brampton is a weird area. The folks who live there or want to live there are very "thrifty" with their money.I wonder what I could rent out a 2 bd rm/2 bath rm condo in Brampton for?
I know. You should see my car insurance bill.Brampton is a weird area. The folks who live there or want to live there are very "thrifty" with their money.
The Danforth has really down downhill in recent years. This is not your father's Danforth.somewhere on the Danforth line east of Castle Frank,.
Wow so you're paying around $3k/month just on housing by yourself? That's incredibly expensive.$1500 for a studio with no parking. I pay $1750 for a small 1bedroom no parking no storage locker right downtown for my incall. Similar price but includes parking for where I live outside of downtown. Good luck trying to find any nice condo for under $1700 downtown. $1500 you just won't get with all the competition.
Shit, I was paying 300 for a bachelor at Yonge and College..........................in the 80's .That's Dundas square, you're in the heart of the city.
What did you expect to pay? Lol
Average price for a one bedroom:Wow so you're paying around $3k/month just on housing by yourself? That's incredibly expensive.
Definitely, but prices are relative. For example, the people in Manhattan paying those prices have jobs that make a ton of money. Large swathes of Manhattan household incomes are in excess of $800k/yearAverage price for a one bedroom:
San Francisco: $3500USD
Manhattan: $3400USD
Palo Alto: $3100USD
Toronto is still cheap.
Condos or apartments by law have to have a window, heater, electricity, fridge, stove.....etc...etc.Beware. Just saw on CTV that some condos being sold do not include the built-in air conditioner. You have to pay extra for that. Read the fine print. Maybe some condos don't include water heater, furnace, pipes, windows, walls, ceilings, stairs, electrical wires, etc. either.
Why not? She is in a unique profession.Wow so you're paying around $3k/month just on housing by yourself? That's incredibly expensive.
Just being sarcastic. Anyway, people who buy condos should check to see whether the purchase price includes the built-in air conditioner. A CTV viewer said her air conditioner was actually a rental and she had to pay rent on a 15 year contract. I think when you buy a house the vendor has to tell you if the water heater and furnace are rentals.Condos or apartments by law have to have a window, heater, electricity, fridge, stove.....etc...etc.
