After a month of searching, I think I have finally found a condo to buy! The good thing about it is that it's huge yet the price is low. I've been racking my brains to try to figure out what the catch is. But there doesn't seem to be one, at least not one that is a deal-breaker for me.
One small catch is that even though it is in a high-rise, it doesn't have a view. Well, that's not true; the view is just of the condo that is next door. I'll definitely have to fill the balcony with plants and just pretend that I live in a jungle.
The other small catch is that it is a lot farther away from the Skytrain than I wanted. But, I think I can get over that con considering the low price.
Now that I am at this point, I just have to make a decision. A few thousand dollar down payment and the place is mine.
Pix of the new digs are definitely in order (after the jungle balcony is complete - of course!)
