Many of the homes are bright and offer beautiful views of Lake Ontario, which is a huge bonus.

What really makes The Sands a wonderful place to live is the amazing list of amenities that help you live an active and healthy life. You can go for a swim in the outdoor pool on a hot day, or use the fitness room to stay in shape. The building also has a sauna, which is perfect for relaxing after a workout. For fun with friends and family, there is a large party room, and for those who enjoy sports, there is even a private tennis court. All of this comes with monthly fees that are known to be very reasonable for the downtown area, which is a big reason why people love living here.

A: Yes. Long-term rentals are permitted here — Ontario condo corporations can set conditions such as a minimum lease term, but they do not prohibit long-term leasing outright. Short-term rentals are a different matter: most corporations in Oakville and Burlington prohibit them, so do not count on running an Airbnb-style rental here. The exact rules are in the building’s declaration, bylaws and rules, which come with the status certificate — have your lawyer review them before you go firm.
