Frequently Asked Questions
Are appliances included with the unit?
The maintenance fee stated in the sales agreement is typically what you’ll pay for the first year. There is a condominium reserve fund managed by the condo board, which decides on fund allocation. You can join the board to have input on these decisions. Initially, there might not be much maintenance due to the building being new. Note that maintenance fees may not include Hydro, water, or heating and cooling, giving you control over your consumption. Fees may increase by about three to five percent annually to cover inflation. By law, the HOA is not a “for-profit” organization; all funds are used for maintenance and upkeep of the building and common areas.
