Yep. My first house was in Acton Ont. It was a "war time house" that was built to house returning vets after the war. They just don't build houses like that anymore. 2-3 bedrooms (small enough that a king size bed won't fit in the largest), 1 bathroom, a kitchen/dining area, and a living room. That's it. You walk in the front door into the living room. There should be a mandate in place that forces developers that a certain percent of new developments (say.....75%?) cost LESS than $300K. Instead they are making these huge McMansions, with a patio bug enough for a BBQ as a backyard, and they cram as many as they can in. They're not building communities. They are making horizontal condos and selling them for over $!M. each.
