Sadly you are correct. Recent sales on our street: - dead spouse x 3 (in their 70s) (#4 being prepared already) - divorce x1 - unaffordable to continue x1 However, I'm glad to see that the new buyers on the street so far are renovating and appear to be for their own families instead of...

I think people started feeling that it's the low end...and now all this talk of rate raises next week have put people on guard again in a wait and see type of moment. Our street is tanking (Dundas / Mavis area) and the recent sales of a bungalow and side split have really tanked the market...

That's a spicy meatball that tempts me also...but it may be a money pit that starts with 2 full tanks of gas also...

Sorry I meant taking 100k into the stock market, not into real estate. Got lucky with real estate before and still regret selling it, but apparently the roof was collapsing 6 years after we sold it. Current owner reached out to see if I had roof issues (we never did) during ownership...

Never grew the ball required to take 100k and put it into the market. My risk appetite prevented me from it. Meanwhile everyone that I know who did it made out like bandits.

If I had the spare money laying around, I'd pick up one or two condos for rental as the market eventually settles and stabilizes. Right now...no such option. But I'm focused on updating the cottage for potential rental investment...although Wasaga may not be the best rental location in the...

That is exactly what my wife wants. A sliding barn door. @GreyGhost those are just shelves not installed yet. No knee wall or anything like that. There’s a return in the basement already. Only reason to install anything is when we have guests it allows for some privacy.

We’ve got some guests coming next year and want to put a door here. Not sure what would be best suited…barn door? Normal door? Curtain? Thoughts?

This is the biggest concern on the entire roof.

Timing was def wrong. But at least with Porsche you know it’ll deliver the good promised. Most of them anyway. To me the whole Tesla video seems off. Something about the way the car moves seems off during the leap.

I should open up my old aerospace engineering books…it’s only been 25 years since I graduated…

I’m def curious how they did it. Because I’m gonna make an educated guess and state that those puffs were not from rockets of any sort. I’m more thinking of some drone underneath that shell. I’m sure the truth will come out.

You guys think I missed the boat on getting my roof re-shingled? Probably too late in the season to do it now? Reached out to a few of the roofers that came earlier in the season and no one has responded, and the weather is too dicey for me to do it. I'm OK holding off for next season as it's...

I would be comfortable cruising on my CB500X at 130-140kph all day long with no issues.
