I'm just holding out for slightly better. Also agree with above poster that the suburbs are overpriced. I'm seeing new 600sf condos in the middle of suburban hellscape @ Don Mills/401 for $350k. Worth $200K to me compared to Radiocity.
Also considered Howard Park, especially one of these units:
perhaps knock out the second bedroom wall and make it a glorified studio space. To me it would be worth $450K downtown, $400K in Roncesvalles. Unfortunately I'm used to living right at college/yonge, and stumbling home from the club at 3am saturday/sunday morning rather than crashing with friends, and cannot rely on ttc to get home from downtown lol. Ideally I want to be within a 20-30 min walk from downtown, and max 10 min walk from ttc.
