etobicoke: Did you claim an HST rebate on your Condo Purchase? - 04/28/12 03:22 PM
Yes, the real estate condo market is HOT! Yes, You can flip your unit for immediate profit! Yes, You can rent your unit! Yes, Revenue Canada; affectionately referred to as CRA is made aware of the transaction. HOW you ask? You pay Land Transfer Tax on your purchase; Tarion Warranties apply. Even in a Flip there are disclosures.

etobicoke: What will you say in 2015? - 03/29/12 11:05 AM
Could have? Should Have? Toronto real estate prices for detached properties show no sign of any price abatement. Will today's prices for a single family detached home be viewed as a bargain in the future? Can you ever time the market? Canada Mortgage and Housing issued some insightful graphs. http://www.scribd.com/doc/87231766/March-Outlook-2012 Have a look and consider the details and source of information. While condo's are becoming over abundant in the next few years they are holding an average of $425 to 495 per square foot in recently built product.

etobicoke: Does HST Apply To A Seller Of A Condo Flip (Assignment)? - 03/29/12 06:35 AM
Inevitably, an offer to purchase an assignment property (often on an OREA form 140 or 141) by a buyer's sales representative will state that, if applicable, HST is included in the purchase price (as we typically see in any offer to buy resale residential properties). The sales representative who represents a seller of an assignment (and who is advising the seller) MUST be aware that according to the Canada Revenue Agency, there are sometimes situations where HST will, in fact, be applicable and payable by the assignor/seller who is assigning a contract to buy a newly constructed unit/residence. When applicable, HST will

etobicoke: How are Toronto condo Fees Calculated? - 03/26/12 06:23 AM
Q I do agree regarding the 20% of fee to be put into reserve fun, however, as a past condo owner, my question is where does the rest of money go? Our condo, new, started with $650.00 mon. fee and by third year was over $850.00, for 1100 sq. ft. No concierge full time, a party room you wouldn't want to place your pet in, small workout room topped with an obnoxious, bully of a pres. of the board. Boutique condos such as the one we owned are nice, but costly on the fees. A Condo buildings are like a small business

Lets Chronicle your First Year of Condo Ownership - Now you really have questions. You made a selection a few years back that you thought would suit your lifestyle and moving into the future.

etobicoke: Lets compare Condo Maintenance Fees Toronto - 02/07/12 12:33 PM
Lets have a look at and compare what makes the maintenance fees in your building. First Lets establish a few things, Your furnace unit consumes electricity; usually through a heat exchange unit in a central part of the condo or maybe you are blessed with two. The heat exchange units take warmth (hot water heated from a boiler) from the coil and disperse it into your unit. The cost of operating the fan blower is yours, the costs of heating the water as to your maintenance fees. The unit is inside your unit and operates from the Common Expenses. The liability

etobicoke: Toronto Home Sales off to a strong start in 2012 - 01/17/12 08:16 PM
We are starting a New Year with Resolutions and Optimism! And an price increase of 8.5% averaged over last year. The first real estate post that I notice is that "the eventual increase in interest rates will lead to a decline in home prices (probably in the magnitude of 10% - 15%)" http://research.cibcwm.com/economic_public/download/if_2012-0116.pdf The ink was barely cold on the presses when the pundits were howling about interest rate increases. When the Bank of Canada announced only 3 days earlier. http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/story/2012/01/13/f-mortgage-rates-record-low.html TORONTO, January 17, 2012 – Greater Toronto REALTORS® reported 1,506 sales through the TorontoMLS® system during

etobicoke: Toronto Forecast 2012 Real Estate - 12/29/11 03:23 PM
Will we have the sky rocketing interest rates? Will the Toronto Condo Bubble Burst? How is our unemployment rate? The global scandals and economic meltdown of entire nations was not shared by Canadians. The Canadian housing market has demonstrated tremendous resilience in recent years, but 2011 stands out. Instead of responding to economic concerns both here and abroad with a retreat in sales and prices, residential real estate markets actually experienced an upswing in the volatile third and final quarters. While clearly not impervious to the impact, Canadian consumers are intent on making their moves now, in advance

So they are getting on in years and your family is almost grown. You're suffering from strong pangs of obligation for your family. Do you bring them in to live with you? Should you look at a separate condo for them to have their own space and privacy? Are you also considering Assisted Living facilities?

etobicoke: Giving you cash back to buy with me - 08/15/11 07:07 PM
Lets talk about giving you cash back on your Toronto home purchase Everyday we are bombarded by countless offers from a wide variety of business. And if those businesses are online, they may be selling lots of sizzle. I have seen amazing claims, garish campaigns, ads and other marketing tactics selling shiny, glossy, exciting, fabulous things where it was clear that the majority of the attention was put on the sizzle. Sizzle may land you a customer once, but if you don’t have the steak, those buyers don't come back and they won’t tell anyone else to come back with

etobicoke: What motivates your move NOW? - 08/12/11 02:23 PM
What is actually driving you to make a decision right now to downsize? 1. Do you WANT to move, or do you feel you HAVE to move? When a senior contacts me about making a move, there are only 2 broad reasons that they are considering a move: they WANT to move to be closer to family, shopping, or to down- size, etc. The other reason is because they feel they HAVE to move due to health, financial, or other reasons. Discovering the real reason for your anticipated move will allow me to help you the best I can. 2. If
