This video is focused on the redevelopment of Toronto’s east end waterfront. Toronto’s growth in 2018 was over 77,000 people. This population growth explains why Toronto has over 120 cranes in the air. Queen’s Quay East is seeing and will see massive change. The redevelopment of this area is well thought out and has brought the biggest property developer’s in Canada to build new condominiums to satisfy the future growth of Toronto. Toronto is now North America’s 4th largest city! This city has a lot to offer and a high standard of living.

As with a lot of Toronto, Galleria shopping Centre is on the way out and a huge development called Galleria on the Park is on the way in. Included in the development by Elad and Freed will be Wallace Emerson park and community centre. This is a 12 acre development that will start building later this year. The development is aiming for a 2030 finish date. When finished there will be nearly 3000 residential units. Over 300,000 sqft of retail space and 21,000 sqft of office space. Over half of the 12 acres will be park space with a new community centre. There will be a new road that will run diagonally from Dupont to Dufferin split the park from the proposed condos.

Over the last few years City council has been working on laneway suites. Now property owners are starting to pay attention to the advantages of having a rental property that is not in their principal property. Laneway suites can come in different styles and layouts but there are lots of rules that govern laneway suites. Most of the rules revolve around property rights and safety. What’s the advantage for renters? This is a condo alternative. Not everyone likes condo buildings. With this unit there’s no waiting for an elevator. Laneway Suites will help reduce the need for rental housing and will enhance neighbourhoods with large lots. This is a great idea and I am sure all will benefit from this idea.

(in a historical kinda way). The opening of the Selby apartments and the former hotel Selby now Maison Selby is a turning point for Upper Sherbourne. It started with the James Cooper condos about 8 years ago and how they incorporated the James Cooper Mansion into the condo building. Upper Sherbourne is not finished with blending old with new. Two proposed buildings across from the Selby apartments will also keep original buildings while blending in new structures!
When buying real estate in Toronto there are two land transfer taxes, one city and the other province. On a $500,000 property the taxes together are just under $13,000. There are rebates of around $8000 for first time home buyers. The good: taxes help run the city and province. The bad: these two governments might be too dependant on this tax income. The ugly: these taxes are warping the housing market. Many home owners are staying where they are because they do not want to go through the added expense of paying land transfer taxes on a future property. Land Transfer Taxes on a property of $1,500,000 is about $52,950. This is reducing the amount of homes for sale and driving up prices because of a lack of supply. Land Transfer Taxes are the golden egg for the government but a rotten egg for... View Article

Yonge and Queens Quay has looked dilapidated for as long as I can remember. Even today it looks neglected and lost. This new project by Pinnacle will change this area for the better. When finished there will be three condominiums and two office towers. At the base of the tallest building will be a City of Toronto Community Centre. This development is fitting for the start of the longest street in the world! This is my newest video One Yonge Street – Prestige Pinnacle. This project will have the tallest condo in Canada!
