My vacation actually started on July 19th, but I figured that a full two weeks of blog posts about Idaho & Wyoming might have got a little tiresome…
I’d like to conclude today with this video below of me at my finest moment at the end of my trip.
Don’t let the moustache fool you - that’s me, and I’m damn proud…
This was probably the most amazing golf course I’ve ever played.
It was truly world-class in every way, and the scenery couldn’t be beat.
But it should come as no surprise that the area is surrounded by unsold houses, and the entire venture is a failure waiting to happen, if you don’t believe that it’s already failed…
I suppose if you absolutely had to, you could pick your favourite city in the entire world.
But how about your favourite place? I mean your very favourite spot?
Here’s a video I shot from my favourite spot in the world…
How about Sagewood Estates? Would that have sold more homes?
Or how about Sagewood Mews? Even that sounds better…
On Ski Hill Road, there is a sub-division with five houses and room for another seventy. It is my opinion that there will never be any more houses on the land that was supposed to contain the rest of the sub-division.
I feel bad for those five residents that live there now…
Seriously, if I hear one more potato joke, I’m going to punch somebody.
Yes, I like to vacation in Idaho.
Yes, I enjoy spuds as much as the next person.
But am I going to Idaho just for the potatoes? I’ve heard enough…
For years, developers have used sex and lifestyle images to sell real estate, but some industry insiders say it doesn’t work and are calling for a more genuine approach.
This article first appeared in last Friday’s Globe & Mail…
Here comes some hypocrisy!
I’ve never been an advocate of superior amenities in a condominium, and I always maintain that I would never use the gym, billiard room, golf net, bowling alley, or swimming pool.
But my last couple trips to 33 Mill Street and the new 33 Charles Street have led me to believe otherwise…
For the last couple months, I’ve had this draft of a blog post about “new age” condominium pools sitting half-complete in my WordPress dashboard.
And then The Globe And Mail goes and does an entire article about rooftop pools in new condominiums like 33 Mill Street and 550 Wellington!
So here’s what I’ll do: today I’ll post the article, which was first published a couple weeks back, and tomorrow I’ll add in my thoughts and recent experiences…
What do you think about living on the ground floor of a condominium?
It certainly comes with its pros and cons, and while some people actively seek it, others would be vehemently against it.
This goes beyond a question of value; it’s a question of personal preference…
There’s nothing quite like coming home after a long day of work and taking a load off, right?
But how about when you come home and find a complaint from the property manager in your building?
And what if that complaint is the most ridiculous three lines of verbiage you have ever seen?
