Happy birthday Tissot :)! OK, our PDI was this morning, but I will post pictures later, I can't download them at work. We have the Eames, the inspection was 1 hour, with the picture taking :)... There is not much to do, the paint job is sloppy, but they will do touch-ups. Some scratches on...

Mine is Monday, just 4 days before move-in - Friday :(

Gosh, it's tiny :confused: ... But how didn't we notice before, this island really needs to move ...

Naah Tissot, we are stuck with this cardboard box, there are better ones even in IKEA :). My husband is teasing me now, because I ordered the green granite upgrade, and I want to change the island already :( ...

Omg Weird :), your kitchen is so cute! The insert looks small though, is it good for 4 people ? The light fixtures over the island are horrendous, I can't wait to change mine. My cupboards are gray and frosted glass on the lower row. Sooo excited :) ....

If you bought before 2007 you don't pay municipal tax, so only provincial - ca. 1% of purchase price, -2000 for the first time byers. Add lawyer's costs - 500-700-1000 and also add some deposits - hydro etc ...

I will post pictures if I am not too upset from what I see :) ... The closing costs are after the building registers, but on the move-in day the last installment of the down payment is expected. Ouch :)!

Nothing wrong with the view, my view will be my neighbours in the Couture across the driveway :( ... Jaybee, so you moved in already, nice! Did you move on the date in the occupancy letter? I hope there are no delays ? Could you pls. post pictures from the gym, is it open, equipped ?

Sorry for confusing you, only the first sentence was a comment to your comment :). I will move the rest in a new paragraph. There :) !

Yes, obviously no upgrades here, investment, designated to be rented out. I saw a lot of people in the buildng today and asked the security what's going on :D. Floor 11 moved in few days ago, today somebody from 6 was moving in. Finally. Have you guys had your inspection appointments? My...

Right you are about those bed bugs! A good Knoll Barselona chair can set you 5k back, but it's worth it. I swear I will not buy an used one or a cheap copy :), you can not count on everyone buying brand new furniture, though. Are the bed bugs really a problem in Toronto :( ? The start of the...

Heheh, bed bugs :). Only a cat can sleep on this thing, so maybe just fleas ... Thanks, tissot !

Does somebody know where to get the best barselona chairs available in Toronto :)? I want to move innnnn ...

My living room will look like the lobby too :), I like it. And no retail in the building, love it!

There was allot to be demolished, hehe :D ... Not to so much prep work for Couture and X2, but still, I can't stand noise. The idea of ruined sat and sun mornings is auful :(.

Do you think we will still enjoy living in our beautiful building with the noise from X2 and Couture in the works ;) for the next 2-3 years ...

Wow, that's art ! Did you enhance the crane light ? Divine :D, good job!

Yeah, we bought on the opening day too. All views and floorplans were available :) ... Occupancy date - 19 Dec 2009 :rolleyes: ... Prices were good, we had to close 25% for down, which is not bad, otherwise they would have ended up in some bad investments perhaps :D ...

? Move in Oct 22/2010, 19 fl ... My friend tried to buy in November, there were only 2 units available, above 40 fl, no parking, very expensive. I heard they are gone too. What is still available ;) ? Now, tell me more about this pool party :) ...

rent? What about the time between move in occ. and final occupancy ? I understand that we will have to pay a rent before we become owners of the place. Any idea of how much that rent may be? I hope it is nothing like the prices you mention above :eek: ...
