Condo Corp will be established once it registers so what I had to do was get renter/tenant insurance. Tomorrow I get the keys to my unit and move in, I'll let you know how it all goes!

When Rogers contacted me last week, they didn't mention anything about their home monitoring service so I assume the security system must be included within maintenance fees. I am very much ready to move in. Scheduled deliveries to coincide with my elevator booking and renting a truck to move...

Hey Reign! Oh yes, completely forgot about your PDI! I'm glad to hear it went well, you had hardly any deficiencies at all. Yes, the security alarm/pin pad is a very nice feature, adds that little piece of mind. It's a shame they couldn't get closing for the 27th, looks like I'll be...

Hey everyone! My apologies for being MIA, I've been quite busy and boy, do I have a story... So earlier this week, I received an email from Mellissa stating that they were just made aware of the early occupancy dates and they were able to offer me Wednesday, October 12th. Well of course I...

Thanks for the suggestion! I spent about 30 minutes just checking their selection out online, wow, so many options, I honestly don't even know where to start. I see they have a store near Yorkdale, may have to check out. Yes, I also called on Monday and booked the elevator too, such a mad...

Kan, also, seeing how we already discussed shades, we skipped another important aspect of the unit, lighting! I'm sure you noticed that there are no light fixtures except for the one in the bathroom (Reign, you'll see this during your PDI) I recently checked out some fixtures but the endless...

Oh I know the difference between interim and closing, I'm extremely well versed in this process, I've had two and a half years to do plenty of research on how this all works but thanks for filling in those who might not know the difference between the two. Regardless of the type of occupancy...

Wow, thanks for all the info! The list of deficiencies doesn't seem so bad, pretty basic stuff. Thanks for all the pictures too, your unit turned out great! Wait, I'm so confused...so you're telling me that although no one has a move in date, people have already gone ahead and booked the...

Thanks so much! I just sort of need a rough idea on the measurements even if they aren't the same layout. Speaking of layout, which unit do you have anyways? I'm in A3. Here's a link with all the floor plans: http://www.condosky.com/pdf/valhalla/triumph/valhalla_triumph_floorplans.pdf As for...

Actually kan, I have a favour to ask of you if you can... Could you please measure out the windows panes in the living room, windows in your bedroom and the balcony door? Trying to have custom shades installed but without the proper dimensions, it's not possible. I know the wall of windows in...

Tomorrow is your big day kan! Make sure you post pictures and tell us how the experience went...maybe you'll even find out some information about occupancy. Just another week of PDI's and I'm sure they'll be pushing for that early occupancy. I ended up getting a few quotes for shades...

Found another http://www.kijiji.ca/v-1-bedroom-apartments-condos/city-of-toronto/valhalla-brand-new/1197122250?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true I think it's in the smokey glass package

Here's another listing, also in driftwood package http://www.kijiji.ca/v-condo-for-sale/city-of-toronto/triumph-valhalla-phase-3-huge-1-bed-with-parking-move-in-novembe/1191017385?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true

Ah yes, great question! I've done some research into what shades I want but I have yet to collect any quotes, something I plan on doing in the very very near future. The Hunter Douglas roller shade in a light grey would be most ideal but that's just my opinion, similar to the ones you see an...

Well, if occupancy is in three weeks, they better start notifying those who want early occupancy as soon as possible. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited but I'm sure the majority of us would like more than a week of notice to work out vacation time, moving times and so on...

Wow!!! Thanks for keeping us posted Kan :) I guess Mellissa didn't give an approximate date but at least it sort of narrows it down. My guess is right after thanksgiving or the week after that so roughly four weeks away

Welcome back to the forum! As for trying to get the fees capped now, it's much too late. The only time you could have made amendments to the purchase agreement was during the 10 day cooling period when you first signed the agreement. Haha, I've also had this conversation with the fiancé...

I found three ads for people looking for parking spots, really has me beginning to worry about the ability to find another spot...might have to start parking at the Loblaws, not sure if that lot is monitored or not. Ah yes, I also had the fees capped at $1,000. Has anyone asked their lawyer...

Wow, that's a great deal you got from the developer if the locker was included with your unit! Just browsing kijiji this morning to see if anyone has posted rental ads for their units, looks like we got one...just so happens to be in the driftwood package with the granite option, looks pretty...

When I purchased my unit preconstruction, lockers were going for $3,000, now it's $4,000, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Yes, lockers will add value for sure. I skipped out on a locker, I'm fortunate enough to use my parents garage to store my winter tires and such so it wasn't so pressing...
