A year and a half on these boards, and the Canadian jokes are still as ignorant and funny.

Truly.

They really don't bore me to fucking tears.



That being said, anyone have an insight on the 25% question? Why would a vendor make that a pre-requisite?

I assume by vendor, you're referring to the seller of the house?
A seller could ask for that because it's easier to get a mortgage for 75% than say, 95%. Deals fall apart all the time when a buyer's financing falls through. So, your seller likely wants to make sure you'll actually be able to afford to buy the place and not waste time and money working on a deal that might not go through.
If it's a co-op or there's some sort of homeowners association, they often have these kinds of requirements for similar reasons. They want to make sure the new tenant is fiscally solid and will stick around awhile, so the bank won't foreclose anytime soon b/c the buyer is scraping buy to make the payments.

i agree.. or the seller just needs the money for his next house.. he may not have enough money for his next house, and is going to use yours..

in exchange, tell him to fix acouple more things in the house. if he complains, you could say "but i gave you 25% down you whore." that always gets him to do work.

look for signs of melting or cracking in the ice. Make absolutely sure you're on solid ground and not on a lake, or spring will be a real bitch for you.
