Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
My dreams were dashed today - got some mortgage advise and it wasnt good. Best i can afford is $178K (I was looking in Fraser valley) but based on what i pay in rent right now (not including taxes and strata fees) then its more around $100K.
Can you even get a property for $100K in Canada - like in the whole country? This decision may have an inpact on me returning to the UK but its early days though. |

I think Bristol has a property for sale in Moncton for under 100k.

52 listed on Realtor.ca under $175k in the Fraser Valley. 30 under $100k.
They sent trailers/mobile homes as I would prefer a condo?! The mortgage broker was like 'yeah you are probably going to have to go in with someone else' |

This listing was a surprise to me, because I saw an article in the Chronicle earlier today about a proposal to turn it into a 14 room hotel with a luxury penthouse. These days 180 grand is cheap for a business.

This is what I need for the dastardly downtown commute. You can drive it on the pavement. :thumbup:

But these can ride on the sidewalk I believe. But I agree, you would look like a bit of a cad in it, on the bright side I don't think there are any specific laws about consuming alcohol while driving one, so on the ride home, you probably wouldn't care. |
