really ? which condo is that ??
If I recall correctly, when Verdale was launched, Majestic Court, EKO, and even CIRCA 2 (whom has been delayed) were already selling for a little while, thus its not a suprise to me that these buildings are now occupied (in advance of Verdale)
Personally, I would not expect any condo to be completed by the builder's original "estimated occupancy" especially since most builders estimate a 2 year time frame ... realistically I see most condos built in 3-4 years after sales first begin
And allow me to clarify, often delays are caused by the builder or their consultantant rather than the municipality ... in this case Remington may be blaming Town of Markham for the delay, while in actual fact the Town has no involvement in it
The problem I find too often is that builders start selling condo even before they start the municipal approval process (application), such as Bazis' One Bloor and Emerald Park projects ... I understand that if a project is well into the application process (half way perhaps?), there would be an indication from City/Town Planning staff the general direction they are going towards thus giving enough assurance for a builder to start sales + marketing ... however when there is no clear indication that a project would be approved but a builder starts selling units, when problems arise with the approval, it's stupid that builders would blame the City/Town ... it is simply a FACT that they have not receive the required municipal approvals
