Most people prefer the island to be a large/uninterrupted workspace.Since its 3' deep, your probably doing some overhang too, if you were to put the sink in the island, I would build a half wall-40.5" tall and have the overhung portion of the counter at bar height..

It's never even a consideration.

Depending on how you organise your holdings, this can be reduced (with other tradeoffs).An LLC may not be viewed as you anticipate by the CRA - do your research and consult with an appropriately experienced cross-border accountant and/or attorney  The exchange rate (~25% at the moment) does need to be taken into consideration and, depending on you objectives, may or may not be a impediment.  

I told the bank that I felt I could no longer pay 155,000 and would think about 150,000 plus a consideration of money back for the closing cost.

I rent in Jersey City Heights currently and have been watching listings in the area (the Heights, Journal Sq, Union City, West New York) for a few months.  

If your screening involves multiple area's of consideration (income, rental history, credit, etc.) and you remain consistent in all areas, you greatly reduce the chances of disparate impact.

I am interested in investing in turnkey properties out of state as NJ is expensive to invest in with consideration of property tax.

What was your inspiration or consideration for changing it to longer stay or boutique?
