What does access in London add to the price?

London, Ontario is a university town with a September spike around Western and Fanshawe. Older houses north of the core have stairs and streets a long truck treats as a shuttle. Downtown and Masonville condos still want an elevator slot. The 401 and 402 are the road out, not a same-day errand to Toronto. HST applies. Ontario's 10% rule applies: the bill cannot jump more than 10% over the contract estimate unless you agree to extras, and holding the load to renegotiate is an unfair practice. Ask for the CVOR and a matching legal name.

Move-out week near Western fills the cheap crews first, and a walk-up north of Oxford Street is still a stair.
