I was showing a property recently, that had been built in 1900, and it had these beautiful log floor joists!

Here's another fake house, this one owned by London Hydro, and located on Central Ave, just West of Adelaide

Have you ever seen these on an apartment balcony and wondered what they were? They're actually anchors for window washing platforms to attach to.

I stopped by to see the "Little House" when I was in Toronto last weekend, I've been wanting to see this one for awhile. Built in 1912, it's the smallest house in the whole city!

This is a SentriLock lockbox - they aren't seen often in the London area (we use Supra lockboxes here), but are the main type of lockbox used in places like Oxford County (Woodstock, Ingersoll, etc.)

With Supra lockboxes, an out of area Realtor needs to signup for lockbox access with our real estate board before being able to open one.

SentriLock lockboxes are a bit different - they allow out of area Realtors to open them, with some required conditions: 1) The agent must have the SentriConnect app installed on their phone and either 2) the listing agent supplies the showing agent with a one day code or 3) the showing agent has their email address added by the listing agent to the lockbox settings to allow them to open it during the scheduled showing time.

This was a strange find - a London Hydro bill from 1996! It was on the ground outside a property I'll be listing in the near future, and it didn't have any weather damage. Even odder is that it was for an address several kilometers away!

Here are a few examples of houses with a mansard roof. Mansard roofs are characterized by each side having 2 slopes, with the lower slope being much steeper than the upper slope. I've even seen mansard roofs where the upper part is flat, or nearly flat.
