As you’ll see in today’s blog, many of the reasons for cancelations are often rooted in the same problems that caused delays, but some are extensions, and some are completely different reasons altogether.

I could go on, but I’m risking the “folksy intro” becoming the entire blog post… Non-Halloween, 2020, is in the rear-view mirror, and thus so is the month of October. This is the new GTA average home price as of the month of October, and it’s an increase of 0.8% – $968,318. over September.
