Plans and price list are out!

Any thoughts on the pricing for this project - It’s around $688 a square foot plus taxes - are they nuts? Who is buying this stuff? Am I out of tune with the market?

Que pensez-vous du prix à partir de $700 pieds carrés?  Une place de parking de $50 000 est achetée séparément

I think that’s how much Symphonia Viu is currently priced at - would not be surprised if this project is priced in a similar way.

Any visibility on pricing of the condos yet? I’ve searched online, and also emailed them. No luck so far.

Any word on the pricing of the apartments in this project?

I wonder how pre-construction condo prices have been affected by the interest rate hikes.

Spoke with one of their sales reps recently, and an 800 square foot one bedroom apartment is going for around 670K (with parking and locker) - I remember they were around 550K a year ago. 
 

A bit of a steep increase?!

There seems to be lots of backlash (island congestion, eye sore, green spaces, community facilities etc) by the IDS community as a result of this project as well as Symphonia Phase 3 - can their backlash actually prevent the project from being completed?

Looks like one of Symphonia’s projects may be cancelled or altered?

Does anyone know if it’s Viu or the newer Symphonia project?

Hey everyone - Other than the 5th Symphonia building which will be built - does Nun’s Island have any remaining plots for Condos?

Looks good - how do you think it’ll be priced compared to Viu?

Les autobus ne se rendront plus au centre-ville. Ce sera un bus intra-ile avec terminus au REM. Je suppose que ça permettera plus de fréquence. Mais avec la STM on sait jamais.....

@Rocco 😂 - thanks - let’s see!

Does anyone have an idea how they will connect the south side of the island to the REM? If transportation links don’t change, we would be looking at 20 minutes by bus.

@letsdothis106To me, Griffin Town would be a better choice for renting and agree with Ima13 that if the baseball stadium goes up, it would be a great upside... Also Griffin Town is becoming a great living area with restaurants and services, which is attractive to the rent market. Symphonia wants resident owners and owner's administration discourage investors who rent their condos, by asking $1K+ yearly fees to pay when you rent your condo, plus there are high moving fees.

@GTMindthanks for that. I did not know about the additional 1K in yearly fees when the condo is rented out - they did not mention that in the sales gallery.

I’m thinking of investing (will be renting it out) in a one bedroom apartment - a bit confused about which option to go for. 

Symphonia Viu, low floor, 700 sq foot, 1 parking, with locker for 445K, 0.44$/sq foot service charge

Wellington sur basin (Griffintown), low floor, 530 sq foot, 1 parking, with locker for 445K, 0.55$/sq foot service charge

Any advice please would be much much appreciated 🙏🏼
