It might be frustrating, but that is absolutely why both your realtor will require YOU to provide your deposit in certified funds and also why any competent law firm will do the same back for you.

I triple check with my lawyer because what he give was just a regular cheque. He ensure me that's fine because is from a lawyer office. At least I won't going with him again.

A cheque drawn from the lawyer's trust account is supposed to be as good as cash but sometimes banks will give you a hard time especially for larger amounts. But if you paid to have the trust cheque certified then he should have certified it.

I always ask if clients need the funds right away and if they do then they should have us get a bank draft for them.

Next time go to a different lawyer instead

In my experience, even if it is certified, on one bank's side. If it's with a different bank, it's as if it wasn't even certified. So you'd have to pay for your bank's certification too.

Or maybe it's just BMO being BMO ._.

If we are depositing money for a client with a bank draft and for some reason the bank says they will put a hold then we talk nicely with the manager or our contact at the bank and explain the situation and that is normally enough because of our relationship with them. Or if the client has a relationship with a banker then they can sort it out too.

Luckily most people are ok with waiting a few days and I haven't encountered the situation where a client needed money ASAP and was unable to access it.

At RBC, they stopped doing the call to the other bank to verify funds. Although if you know a banker / branch manager, that seems to be the best way to bypass it.

^^ That's why I did call my branch manager and have the hold remove. If they haven't called me about this earlier in the morning I wouldn't even know and it would have been a really big issue next time.

It makes zero sense long term to dump literally a hundred grand into strata fees over the term of ownership as opposed to making a hundred k in the first 4-5 years of rental income.
I agree from a financial point of view, having income generating options is preferable. But there are also factors to consider beyond just the finances, depending on your lifestage and preferences/values.

I also agree that like for like, similar area, aged, and sized townhouse vs a detached house with suite, even with a price delta of 250k, financially speaking you should absolutely choose the detached property. But even out in the Tricities, 250k extra isn't enough to buy into that sort of detached property.

I think that's questionable for the short to mid future, and even long term. The reason why condos are in the mess they are now is because detached have run way up past general affordability. With all the heat on real estate over the past years, who will be the ones to drove the next detached price run up? You can't depend on developers and buy-ups, because even those are more limited today due to less available financing and decreased affordability of new high density homes

Through anecdotal reports, power still ultimately lies with the tenants via the RTB. So no, you can't just throw any addendum in expect it to stick if your tenant decides to pull RTB on you. Sure you can screen and hand pick tenants all you want, but once again these are things that take time and effort and never guarantees you'll be smooth running 100% of the time.

Personally we decided to be more conservative with our purchase at the time so we didn't have to rely on a mortgage helper, and also avoid the potential work and associated headaches to earn that rental income. Its the right choice for us but obviously won't work for everybody.

Just a curious question if I were to change the carpet in 2 bedroom to hardwood or engineered wood how thick of a underlay I generally need for apartments? Been trying to read the strata bylaws and I could not find anything but the strata manager is on vacation till the 14 so I can't get the info from her.

You still have a few days. It will be ok. I just hate it when everyone literally leave everything last minute. Like the lawyer I am going with to purchase my new place. I am suppose to go see her on Monday with the bank draft and if I haven't keep calling her for the last 2 days she wouldn't have given me the amount on how much I need to write on my bank draft. Good thing I got the number after lunch and made it to the bank to get a bank draft.

As long as the price isn't out of line, you should be fine.

Yea. Im surprised they approved it then asked for appraisal. But as fliptuner said. As long as you didn't overpay at all then you'll be fine

IThen the bank you at dealinv with won't approve the loan. You can then try getting your broker to find you another bank if youstill have time. But appraisals are a normal process for some banks from what I know

When your broker said undervalued, does he mean u are paying less thsn what the others in area are selling for?

Mortgage Broker chiming in here. What your broker meant when financing is approved is mostly a conditional approval, where it is still subject to various conditions such as docs review, employment verification and appraisal.
As others mentioned, unless your way over paid for the unit, the appraisal should come back fine. Worst case scenario, you'll have to come up with the difference as additional down payment. For example: Original approval amount was for 800,000 on a 1 million dollar unit(80% is max assuming you're not purchasing mortgage insurance). The appraisal comes back at 900,000. The max loan amount they'll lend you is now 80% of 900,000 which is 720,000, and the difference of 80,000 you will have to make up by making additional down payment.
