Townhouse, stacked town or condo
A condominium townhouse in Liverpool, Highbush or Village East gives you a garage, a small yard and stairs, with a fee that covers the exterior; ask for the status certificate and check the reserve fund against the age of the roofs. A stacked townhouse in Duffin Heights or Seaton is newer and cheaper to heat but shares floors and ceilings with neighbours, so visit on a weekday evening to hear how it lives. A condo apartment in Bay Ridges or Town Centre gives the shortest walk to the platform and the lowest upkeep, in exchange for a fee and less space. Whichever you choose, keep money aside for land transfer tax, legal fees and moving, confirm the parking arrangement, and ask the team which complexes have had special assessments.
