    I can as soon as I get his name and contact info. I've been a bit behind with this stuff :(

    Hi Probey, I guess we'll be contacting them about the package, then! We haven't filled out the legal rep letter yet. We've been asking friends for lawyer referrals and listening to the advice they had. A friend who recently bought a home was quoted $1,000 for everything. His lawyer had warned...

    Thanks for the heads up on that! Was there anything interesting in there? I don't even know what it's supposed to really be about.

    Hi Newbuyer, I think you're correct that the mortgage starts when the building is registered. As for when registration will be, all we were able to get was an estimate when we last visited the office. We were told 6 months to a year is "the norm". In other news, I'm getting so restless...

    Thanks for the info, Newbuyer! I guess delaying by 6-8 weeks somewhat makes sense since the strike lasted so long. The apartment we have is 2 bedrooms + media (it's the Flora layout).

    hahaha if they keep delaying, it might be tempting! :P

    Also, did your date change much? Do you know what it was supposed to be before the changes resulting from the strike?

    31st, I believe. I suspect we'll have a later move in date than you :(

    Thanks for the info, newbuyer. Which floor are you on? From what I understand, they start moving in lower floors and then make their way to the top.

    I don't think it's the same- occupancy is just when you move in, and closing date is when officially "own" the place and start paying your mortgage instead of the interim fees. Did anyone receive any emails as to when the confirmed occupancy date will be? Natalie had send out one saying she...

    The Insider, Thanks you anyways. I hope this won't add too long. I think in the contract it says that they can add up to 4 years to the estimated time without any consequences to them.

    The Insider, Thank you for the update... any way you could tell us anything else about that or more details? I'm dreading this now :(

    Emerald City Condos (ELAD Canada) - Real Estate -

    Seesus, That's what I'm thinking as well. If they start construction in the spring (let's be optimistic and say April), then they would have 1 year and 7 months to complete everything. From what I've seen with other condos, that's not very realistic. This condo is pretty tall, and has lots of...

    Emerald City Condos (ELAD Canada) - Real Estate -

    Sorry Newbuyer, I don't know the details. I only remember what was briefly mentioned back in the summer. I'd say your best bet is to go back to the sales office, and ask them about this. Even if they won't deal with it themselves, they'll likely point you in the right direction. You might also...

    Emerald City Condos (ELAD Canada) - Real Estate -

    Newbuyer, From what I understood, you can do the assignment by going to the sales office and making some changes in the contract (for which they will charge you, of course). Thank you for the info about the original move-in date. ------ I wonder if this delay will also impact Phase 2. From...

    Emerald City Condos (ELAD Canada) - Real Estate -

    ugh! well that's great. Maybe we'll move in sometime when Phase 2 is projected to be done (2014). After speaking to some people at the bank, they told me it was common for condos to be delayed 2-4 years. I really hope that won't be the case! We only bought the condo this summer. I heard...

    Emerald City Condos (ELAD Canada) - Real Estate -

    The days are flying, and I'm starting to get a bit worried. Will they be done in time? I hope they don't push the date back yet again! it's just over 500 days until the anticipated first wave of move-ins, and I find it hard to believe that they'll get the huge building up in time, get all the...

    Hi, We just got the Flora Layout- it seems more flexible to changes. Also, there isnt a "bottleneck" at the entrance... just a small hallway and you're right into the living space. I think bluebell would be better if you plan to have a roommate, since the other bedroom is on the other side of...

    Hi Everyone, I did a lot of googling trying to find some floor plans for this building, and I stumbled onto this site- pleasant surprise, to say the least! Here's a little about me... We will have the FLORA layout in the upper floors, and can't wait to move in! We're already planning a few...
