In 2012, our fees had climbed to $0.65/sq ft. I don't know the exact numbers today, but from comparables, looks to be over $1.00/sq ft.
Not cheap.
The target market for luxury/boutique condos are people who don't want to be arsed with mowing the lawn, shoveling a driveway and are willing to...
Depends on the contract, but typically for shoebox condos, parking spots are negotiated and deeded separately. Getting the list price as low as possible is part of the investor appeal. Livability and convenience for the tenant are a distant concern, which is why you're seeing a shoebox condo...
You are right, it is AI-narrated.
Here is the CBC version saying the same thing:
Their bifurcation mark is "condos built between 2016-2020: 650 sq feet, condos built between 1971-1990: 1000 sq ft". Similar stats: more than half of new builds are classified as shoebox condos - square footage...
Some condos have a storage lockers situated on a different floor as part of their property. At least the good ones do. You can keep your surfboards and bicycles in there.
Probably not the 450 sq ft investor specials though. Those don't even have a full kitchen, much less a galley kitchen. Maybe...
New bike time is always exciting, more so if it's you getting a new bike!
But even if it's not me, I do like reading about other people's new rides. Like deeply inhaling someone else's second-hand smoke when you're trying to quit cigarettes... 🤔:ROFLMAO:
The condo market in Toronto is bifurcated.
On the one side, you have the recent 450-600 sq ft units builds targeted to speculat... *cough* investors to rent out, totally unsuitable for families or long-term rentals. Then you have the older, larger condos 1000 sq ft or more - way more livable...
Luckily we used to live in a boutique condo, only 36 units, and we pretty much knew everyone in the building.
The condo rules were one vehicle per parking spot and no maintenance work to be done on vehicles in the underground parking garage.
We had 11 vehicles scattered over 5 spots and I did...
What don't you like about NordVPN?
No experience with ProtonVPN, but I use Private Internet Access. Happy with their throughput as well as their global presence. They have port forwarding if you run applications that need inbound access behind the VPN.

This was her setup:
She only used the trials bike for one season, enough to get used to riding off-road, then she moved on to a KLX230S and then a TE250 and is currently ripping the trails like a boss.
She was smart about learning how to ride, choosing the right bike for her skill level and...
I don't go to many motorcycle meets, I'll only show up if I'm meeting my riding buddy(s) there, before or after a ride.
So it would be nice to be somewhere where I can get a drink and sugary snack while we chat before or after we ride. Somewhere away from the centre of town would be good too...
Ours don't have any vents, but I don't think these things are designed to be hermetically sealed. Never a problem with moisture, or fumes build-up.
Mind you, the Okanagan is dry as hell, even in the wintertime, so there's that...
What's your budget?
My buddy had a 10x20 storage unit that he used as a bike workshop. I think he was paying about $500/month. 24/7 access and climate controlled.
If you share it with a couple of people you trust, could be worth it.
Our bag did get moved from the airport immediately to a commercial property nearby. It turned out to be the third party delivery company contracted out by either the airline or the airport, and they delivered our bag when they said they would.
Actually, our bags got delayed on our last flight.
Interestingly, the lost/delayed baggage form we filled out had a field for an Airtag URL, so they are getting hip with the times.
Airtags are great if you can track them when they've landed in your town/city.
Not so great if they're sitting...
We don't get questioned about the helmets, but we recently got back from a fly-away ride on the other side of the world. To save on space, we wore our dirt bike boots on the flight(s) with us.
We had left on our trip a couple of months ago, and it was during the middle of ski season. As we...
I'm not convinced people are trying to sneak free luggage onto their flights.
I think they just don't want to wait at the baggage carousel after landing, they just want to get off the plane and walk out the front door.
We don't do a lot of domestic flights, so we have to go through passport...
