What a cottage really costs
The purchase price is the start: septic life-cycles, shoreline work, winterizing, insurance on wood heat, and the road association fee nobody mentions. Kate walks buyers through the full ownership picture so the second summer is as good as the first.
Selling the family cottage
Cottage sales are often estate sales in disguise, with family history attached. Kate handles them with the paperwork discipline they need, capital-gains context from your accountant, documentation buyers' lawyers demand, and the patience the family deserves.
Questions
Seasonal or four-season: which should we buy?
Four-season costs more and holds broader value; seasonal buys more shoreline per dollar. The right call depends on use and financing, and Kate will run both.
Can we rent the cottage out when we are not using it?
Rules vary by municipality and are evolving; factor them in before the purchase, not after. Kate keeps current on each township's stance.
How far do these cottages sit from the GTA?
Most of the Kawarthas runs 90 minutes to two-plus hours from the top of Toronto depending on the lake; Haliburton adds more. Kate plans showings so one trip covers a shortlist.
