Last month, I wrote about how the rental market goes crazy EVERY YEAR during the Summertime. (Read the blog "Why you need to rent a place soon!" You may be thinking, sure, it only happened for the past 10 years, but will it happen again this year? We won't know for sure until the stats come out in September. All I can say is in the past week:• I've had 80 sets of tenants contact me•...

We recently sold this amazing 4-bedroom home in Mississauga for +$200k over asking with 7 offers and more than 50+ showings. Many sellers and their agents feel they just need to "put it on the MLS and it will sell itself". It might sell, but you are probably leaving money on the table.

As you may have heard, there is a new "Stress Test" that will be taking place on June 1, 2021. I had the opportunity to ask Chris Molder, a mortgage broker from Tridac Mortgage, about the changes and how it affects home buyers. Watch the Interview The stress test increased from 4.79% to 5.25% and now affects both insured and uninsured mortgages. So if you need a mortgage of $1,000,000, your...
The average price is up +32.8% compared with last year, when COVID started. But if you look at the numbers from March, they are actually dropping. I am seeing a softening in Mississauga and Brampton. For about half of the houses we were looking at, they actually accepted a "conditional" offer! In a super-Seller's market, this is unheard of, so it suggests that either fewer listings are...
With the crazy house-prices in Toronto, many homeowners are choosing to renovate their current home instead of upgrading to a new one. Recently, we talked with one of our clients who was planning to remodelling their house.

Moving to a condo is a great option! Everything is taken care...
