If you were ever thinking of purchasing a unit at Parkside Village in Mississauga, this weekend would be the time! Like many other developers in Toronto, they’ve decided to relaunch their project with many new incentives.  I’ll be attending the brokers VIP event this weekend where buyers can take advantage of up to $25,000 in savings, 10% deposit structures, up to $16,000 in Haustique furniture and 42″ flat panel HDTV’s. This is a broker only event not open to the general public, the only way to get in is through a realtor.

If you’d like more info, give me a call…i’d love to help!  Amazing units still remain, take advantage of these incentives before they’re gone!!

Last month I did a Video Blog on how the first half of June 09 was preforming much better than June 08.  Now that June numbers are in, there’s even more good Real Estate news to share!  The Toronto Real Estate board is reporting record results with 10,955 sales occurring, up 27% from June 08.  The average price was $403,972 – up by two per cent compared to the same month last year.

The C01, C08 districts of the city (where the bulk of condo sales occur) saw averages prices sitting at $340,895 and $345,465 respectively.  Well priced units are selling in a matter of days and most for over asking!  Sellers, with units selling in record time, now is the perfect opportunity to put yours on the market.  Buyers, now more then ever it’s important to be pre qualified and prepared for when yourunit becomes available.  With most selling for close to the asking price or above, work with a realtor who’ll actively search the MLS and keep you up to-date with new listings!

If you’d like a copy of this months market report, send me an email and i’ll get one out to you!  Interested in getting involved in the market give me a call…i’d love to help!

Unlike some other bloggers out there…I’ve got to give credit when credit is due!  This is my remake of an old ad used by a few Realtors in the 90′s.  10 years later, the medium is different but the message is the same!

Real Estate agents and their pets!!
I haven’t the slightest idea why so many of us advertise our services with “Fluffy” in the background. Never the less it’s a common thing and also today’s subject for “Make You Laugh Mondays”

You’ve got to love any city that can have a celebration of the arts one week (Luminato) and a music festival the next (North by North East)

After 15 years and still going strong, the North by North East music festival is about to take Toronto by ’sound’ again!  From June 17th to the 21st 2009, over 500 local, national and international artists will have the chance to showcase their talent. The acts take place in different downtown venues and for $50 you can get wristband entrance into all of  them! Last year had over 70,000 people and i’m sure this year will be no different!

Some of this years heavy hitters include: GZA, Black Lips, The Kool Kids, and Spiral Beach, BUT the act I can’t wait to see is Canadas/Oak Ridges/Toronto’s own Alison Jane.  Read the rest of this entry »

What an amazing listing!!!

A sales representative in my office, Lori Bennett has just listed a very special home.  What makes it so unique is that it caters to a way of life, that in my opinion, doesn’t get enough attention.  The spacious renovated bungalow has been designed to give special needs families the comfort they need and the privacy they deserve.

The sellers have upgraded their home with lifts and built-in’s to accommodate wheel chair or elderly access.  It also has 2 full kitchens on the main floor with one designed for complete cooking at wheelchair height.  The  bathroom was made specifically for wheelchair use and to give the user independence!  3 spacious bedrooms can be found on the main floor and include a 3 piece bathroom in each.  Check out the pictures below: Read the rest of this entry »

Happy Monday blog readers!! Here’s my 3rd installment of “Make You Laugh Mondays”.  For those of you that are new to the blog, it’s important to note that THESE ADS ARE NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.  Every Monday I like to post “mock real estate ads”  to start the week off on a good note.
