Comment on Dog owners hold third annual Beachy-Clean Day today by George O'Neill

Yes, I agree. Many dog owners unfortunately are very inconsiderate when it comes to cleaning up after their dogs. But, on the other hand many owners are considerate and do the right thing. I know when I walk through our lovely parks in the Beaches area of Toronto, I am always on the look out of where to step. I am not sure what the solution is, except perhaps more education and peer pressure.

Once when walking my dog one evening I saw an owner watching his dog poop in the park grass, so I went over to the owner and gave him a bag so he could go pick up after his pet. He did so, so sometimes peer pressure can work.

Good point. Schools are important to many home buyers. Properties located in the best school districts can command a premium at re-sale time. As they say, real estate is all about “location, location, location”….

A map would be great – but the City of Toronto does not seem to provide the data in that format.

Hello Mr. ONeill!
I would like to have a question for you: Last year I bought (wanted to buy) a townhouse (condominium) . I signed up the agreement and I gave to the seller a deposit of $5000 because he said will register the unit on my name in a month or two! Of course he never did that since August 2011 till present! The problem is that I lost the deal with my Bank at the end of October 2011 and I decided to step out of that deal! Prior to that decision I asked the seller’s agent what’s happen why the don’t register the unit on my name? I need to start ASAP with the mortgage. He said: wait a month more….. and so on….then I decided to go to City to ask about that. They told me that this Seller (he is a constructor too) cannot register the unit on my name until he sales at least 80% of that row of townhouses, at least 11 units! and this can take months or years or who knows!!!! After this I decided to step out of that deal, I thought I bought a house! Now, the seller asked me pay a difference for each month since September till March this year of $350! than he will sign up the mutual release form. I agreed to that but later he said I have to repaint the unit, to let all my improvements in the house, he will hold back some money (of my deposit) plus I have to pay all the paper and correspondence to the both lawyers!!! Now I need an advised from you because I think he exaggerate with all that! I just need my money back, that’s it.
Thank you so much!
Lugoja

Forgot one of the rosneas I bought my house 5 years ago:9. I wanted my kids to stay in the same school zone and grade school as long as they could. Difficult to get that peace of mind as a renter.
