toronto: TREB Introduces New Home Price Index Just like ORES INDEX - 04/16/12 05:50 PM
TREB Introduces New Home Price Index Just like ORES INDEX
Ontario Real Estate Source
By Brian Madigan LL.B.
I thought it might be rather interesting to look at the new Home Price Index which has been just released by The Toronto Real Estate Board.
In fact, it’s an exact copy of my ORES Index which I have been producing for years. No, it’s not similar; it’s an EXACT COPY.
You may recall that I produce a summary of TREB statistics and certain other comparative statistics all indexed to base 100, with an effective date commencing 1 January 2005.
The comparative … (3 comments)

toronto: The Use of Printed Flyers - 04/01/12 06:01 PM
The Use of Printed Flyers
Ontario Real Estate Source
By Brian Madigan LL.B.
The interesting thing is that the use of printed flyers is increasing once again.
With all the internet marketing and overabundance of printed flyers, advertisers marketing real estate left this field.
All the new people went to the internet. It was more effective and it was much, much less expensive.
Well, a good deal of that has changed. Printed flyers are making a comeback. When they are not quite so plentiful, the ones that get through are being looked at, and people are phoning.
Who would have thought … (8 comments)

Trump and a Bad real estate Decision
Ontario Real Estate Source
By Brian Madigan LL.B.
You would think that these words wouldn’t go together in one sentence.
But, here’s the problem: The new Trump building at the corner of Bay and Adelaide in the heart of the financial district in Toronto has a real issue.
Bay Street is THE Street in Toronto. That’s the address for the head offices of the big five banks. It’s like Wall Street in New York or Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington.
Everyone knows Bay Street. Few outside Toronto have ever heard of … (7 comments)

toronto: Missing the Home Inspection could be a Big Mistake! - 03/06/12 05:41 PM
Don’t Forget the Home Inspection
Ontario Real Estate Source
By Brian Madigan LL.B.
If you are a consumer and you are about to buy a house, ensure that you obtain a proper home inspection. This can save you a lot of money.
Even if you happen to be in the construction business yourself, good, qualified home inspection companies all have insurance. So, in the worst case, if something serious is missed through the negligence of the home inspector, then you have a claim.
This is the standard “rule of thumb”. It’s easy to get caught up in a bidding war … (2 comments)
