RENT DON'T BUY

I owned a unit here and thankfully sold it this year before sinking more money into this building I like a lot of young buyers was looking for an affordable place to purchase and bought a 1 bedroom which at the time was ample space for a bachelor like me Fast forward a fiance and dog later and then suddenly we were a family of 3 Space was cramped and condo living didn't suit us any longer We were both at home a lot I work on contract and with our dog we just weren't happy with the amount of space we had and city living wasn't our lifestyle anymore We are country people at heart and craved a big backyard and garden If you're looking to buy a this condo as an investment you need to look into your overall lifestyle are you happy in a busy city how loud it is gets during CNE Caribana etc Don't just look at the numbers That's why I recommend renting here first to see if this is the life you want Are you bothered by loud neighbors reality condo walls are thin deal with it Are you okay with using elevators that always break down Does the air show bother you we have a dog so a big YES for us You can't be a control freak living here and will become miserable Condo living is for the tolerant or the busy who never live at home Take this building for a spin for a year or two then if you really like it get a better condo in south Liberty Village

Issues

Urbancorp is almost finally all gone So all the perceived issues related to them should in theory be addressed soon A quick google and you can see their business practices and judge for yourself The monopoly of Tarion in Ontario and their executive bonuses can be easily searched as well I leave you to formulate your own opinion on these entities We had a break in in the parking garage P 2 level Notices were put up suggesting the blame was on residents for not locking the doors properly Asked at the general meeting what the protocols are for security the condo was informed their security sweeps are supposed to be completed every hour including checking the doors This is on their check list The building manager then confirmed this was not happening and that it happened maybe three or four times a shift due to how busy the security was A resident then on record noted they often saw security taking extended breaks in the park adjacent to our building One of the elevators has been broken for about two weeks and counting Elevators often go out of service in the building This is all being documented with gps time stamped photos and video

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION

Reading the below reviews have made me feel like a lot of people have stopped taking their meds Listen ppl you can try and call our building liberty village all you want but it isn't Out building is located between Parkdale and Liberty Village I think the building is ok Sure we have been having issues with the elevators but that happens everywhere People just need to learn how to relax and understand that you get what you paid for The building is in a great location close to the CNE TTC GO TRANSIT MALLS DOWNTOWN CORE and great little shops and restaurants For being so central to some pretty great locations the price is awesome

GREAT BUILDING AND GREAT MANAGEMENT STAFF

Hi I currently own a unit in this building I have lived in this building for over a year and I have nothing bad to say about the building or its staff Every time either myself or my family have gone to the management office they have been treated with nothing less than respect and courtesy They will go out of their way to be as helpful as they can As for the previous review that complained about noise I can say that I do not hear any of my neighbours either above below or on either side of me I would definitely recommend this building to anyone The management staff will always share a helpful idea hand or just a smile and a hello if they see you All in all 38 Joe Shuster Way is a great building with great people and great staff

38 Joe Shuster Way Owner Since Day 1

I have been an Owner at 38 Joe Shuster Way since the beginning It was a rough start for everyone at the beginning but since Goldview Property Management has come on board the positive changes have been enormous and improvements ongoing Friends living in other Goldview run properties are extremely happy with the services provided to them as well The Board of Directors is a dedicated and knowledgeable group of volunteers and have spent hours of their time to ensure that the building conditions improved Site and Management Staff are friendly courteous and helpful and always go above and beyond the call of duty to assist Residents both Owners and Tenants They are visible and seemingly on call at a variety of hours outside of 9 a m to 5 p m I have never been badly treated by any staff from cleaners to security or office staff They are always friendly and helpful However I am aware that there can be problem tenants in every building and complainers that could certainly test the strength of the pope The building is well maintained and very clean considering the high occupancy rate almost 1 200 people and over 200 dogs coming and going The building seems to face many challenges mainly due to the developer and the types of materials that were chosen to use this especially applies to the elevators However there has been much improvement on all levels over the last year with service

Owner 38 Joe Shuster Way Since Beginning PART 2

I appreciate that I m kept up to date with friendly and humorous notices on the status of repairs etc in the building Personally I have been in numerous buildings where the notices are posted in a variety of ways As long as I get the information I need that's all that I really care about Thin walls go hand in hand with today's building standards the need for cheap and fast places for people to live and community living Those choosing in a condo life must be flexible to understand the needs of those living around them and also be aware that they can be heard as well Condo living is NOT for everyone I am also very much aware that a lot of condos are used as investment properties and some of these Owner's do not care about who they rent to except that they collect a monthly cheque Repairs to units are kept minimal Many people renting in condos the frequent move in and out are the reasons for much of the damage and problems done to buildings In fact some people should not have been rented to in the first place Many tenants move into cheaper buildings expecting far too much for their dollar remember you get what you pay for 38 Joe Shuster Way is great value considering the staff and services and luxury to live so close to the downtown core My suggestion to anyone not happy living anywhere is that the good news is that there are thousands of other buildings in the GTA to choose from

QUIET CLEAN AND FRIENDLY

I m not sure what's going on with all the drama recently but I can say that this building is awesome Being a renter I ve been treated no different than the owners in the building To the other renters if you have maintenance issues its up to your landlord the owner to fix them Management usually tries their best to help you as much as possible but some things have to be done by the landlord I have lived in both apartment buildings and condos and I can say that it doesn't matter where you live or how much you pay or what class of neighbourhood your in you always have to deal with tenants that are less than pleasant to deal with I have had my fair share of problem neighbours I love that in this building there's so many families and people with dogs and its great that we're on the line between Liberty Village and Queen West It is also great that there are so many option for TTC Dufferin Bus Queen Streetcar King Streetcar Management staff have been helpful and friendly with me all times I have interacted with them I have read reviews and it would seem that there used to be a different property management on site before and that's were most of the horrendous stories are coming from It seems that since Goldview has taken over things have improved more than 100 I hope one day to purchase a condo and I would look buy here I just hope that everyone else can see what a great little community we have in this building and lets not let a few bad apples spoil the bunch

Property Management is RUDE and the building is cheap Go somewhere else

I was here as a tenant and honestly it's one of the worst places I ve lived in Sure it's cheap and close to liberty village but it's not worth it The elevators break down every other day and when they do work the programming is so awful It takes forever to get to your floor on some days The walls in the building are so thin and the doors are not sealed properly so it makes noise every time someone enters exits their unit and you can hear everything out in the hallway The worst part about living here was property management Goldview Every time I have gone to talk to the guy in person he's been so rude and aggressive Your job is to provide service to the residence of the building why would you have attitude and complain and give lecture all the time It's one of the reasons for getting out of this place Changes definitely need to be made here learn to have some customer service Actually learn just how to talk to people with some respect and kindness I don't need to be put on the spot and constantly grilled because I want to report something or make changes to my bookings Don't think you have all this power just because you work in property management for the building Also what's up with paper notices taped to walls I have never seen anything like it in the 7 years I have lived in condos Invest in some proper notice boards I highly recommend you go somewhere else if you don't want the staff or something in the building ruin your day

STAY AWAY FUTURE SLUMS

If you are thinking of buying a place here dont the construction and finish product is not worth the my hardwood floors are uneven the halls are painted in primer same with the units lots of parties and very nosie not to mention all the vandalism that takes place inside from hood rats and drugies lots of garbage on balconies and miss match curtins in every unit good luck finding a curtin rod or curtins that fit these horrible laid out units and if you get a flyer from Maria through it away she fills the building with party people
