We sold right before the market was flooded with all the properties which had mortgage deferrals because of the pandemic. Had we waited a few more weeks we would likely have been down 100-120K. New place is on 2 acres with a forest behind which is full or trails for cross country skiing...

Thanks, The property / location is what sold us on the new house (Garage space might have had something to do with it as well ;) ) for the new area, having a modern house would really stand out and might hurt resale down the line. I am sure we will put our own spin on it though. Its honestly...

We are moving out tomorrow and will be renting for the next few months. The seller of the new place wanted a longer closing date. Eh it will be worth the wait. Im excited to have the extra space. :)

Well its been quite the year for everyone. We have decided take advantage of the extremely hot housing market here in Toronto, cash out and move outside the city. The plan is to move south of Ottawa where our money can go a little further in terms of space and number or garage(s) we listed our...

Long time no update. Ive finally had some time to play around in the garage. Managed to get the tire rack up to free up some floor space. Still a lot of junk in the corner that needs to be moved or thrown out. Annyways, We use smaller industrial racking at work for storage / work space...

Well the plumbing work has been done. They were able to cut the pipe at the centre of the dip and generate enough slope to where it connects to the city line. They did all this work without having to dig through the garage slab which I am pretty pleased with In the basement they replaced the...

Thanks for the kind words! Its a 1993 GTS-T Type M I have had it for going on 8 years now, (on the road for 3 haha) 4 or so years ago it went through a substantial overhaul. It hasnt been a high dollar build by any means. Most of the mods have been factory upgrades, GTR injectors, bigger turbo...

Not much to report. We have been dealing with plumbing / backup issues sewage issues. A dip in the pipe under the footings for the front wall / garage has reared its ugly head. We havent ever had issues with plumbing in the past so something happened during the excavation/ construction phase...

it seems like many people have had some success with the Barrina T5 Amazon fixtures. Went ahead and ordered these, They seem to be this weeks flavor of the barrina fixture: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B079FC9T9K/ref=pe_3034960_233709270_TE_item It ended out being $60 CAD for 2 day shipping to my...

So the lights in the garage didn't pass electrical inspection. The electricians installed standard light sockets for screw in bulbs which got in the way of the high mount door. For inspection they just covered the boxes and took the fixtures out. No lights in the garage was an obvious problem...

Aye, Came here to say the same thing.

It will do anything with the exception of the actual grocery shopping :bounce:

There is two bathrooms upstairs (one guest bathroom and one in the master) as well as the toilet in the laundry room. Upstairs there is a master bedroom and two spare rooms. One has a guest bed and the other will be an office with a pullout couch / futon to use if we have lots of people over...

It is a galvanized steel with a "wood" look alike texture on the one side. we chose this so it would be maintenance free (and I dont want to go up to the peak to sand / stain every couple of years. There are a few houses in our area which used natural wood and looked absolutely amazing for the...

Thanks Guys, Still some tidying up to do on the interior (trim, paintwork & staining the stairs) but ill post some finished shots once we are more settled. I just realized I never shared photos with the glass divider panel. Looks phenomenal. Dog is enjoying the new view too. The journey...
