So, looked around all weekend... interestingly, there is NO new cunstruction in Bolton, they have maxed out the water supply. Similarly in Bradford, they have about 10-20 lots for sale, and then that's it. Maxed out water supply.
We looked at a development in North West Brampton, sort of near hwy 50 and Rutherford, and it costs $100,000 for a garden shed on a 20x20ft lot. So that's out.
On Sunday, we got up to the south Barrie/Innisfil area, and things are MUCH more reasonable up there. And I really like the area, kind of the gateway to the northern Ontario outdoorsy area. Snowmobile and ATV trails starting right from your back door. No smog, etc.
It'd be a bit of a hike, probably 50 minutes to work, but that's what I'm doing now, and I'm used to it.
