I'd hope they're reasonable fees - I'm guessing without many of the amenities they should be. Also, they'll probably follow the pattern of increasing by 25% or so after a couple years like a lot of new condos do.

Trey: the word "flipped" makes me shudder, but I'm sure if you've found a quality job, it must be nice to have a majority of the work done! I don't think I'll find anything but a fixer-upper to my liking. Then again, I've seen too many flipped houses in Hamilton where simple things like the furnace, windows, electrical or the roof was falling apart. And they still sold to people who wanted "a fresh coat of paint and new laminate floors and ooh... shiny!" And unfortunately I've known people who bought houses like that for more than they should have... which is bad news if just buying a house is a dream for someone, and it ends up costing a lot in repairs)

But that's my little tangent and I'll leave it alone now ;) Perhaps the Rosewood will prove to be an affordable entry-level housing option that, because it's a condo and has just been redone, helps some new homeowners to avoids those pitfalls.
