    Asian Financial Crisis Architectural Victims

    Yup, you guessed it! I snapped that pic while I was in Bangkok this summer. The city is dotted with these half built buildings, victim of the Asian Financial Crisis in the late 90's... I think sooner or later all those buildings will have to be demolished.. Too bad... BTW, the top and...

    I have the price list, and they seemed a bit expensive, but then again, its in-line for the prices in the area.

    Roncesvalles Lofts (Triumph) - Real Estate -

    I am a Purchaser I bought my unit there about a year ago. At that time, they were priced about 400 per sqft. I am not sure what they are priced now or if they still have any units available... They have some decent layouts when I was there. They redesigned some two stories unit to two one...

    Toronto Lofts 399 | ?m | 10s | Cresford | Northgrave

    No, they did not achieve 70% sales. I was one of the original Mode Purchasers and they returned our deposits last year and cancelled our contracts. This is a completely different project.

    They started demolishing the former sales office today.. I guess they will start on the construction right away?!? This certainly is a nice surprise..

    King West Life in Liberty Village (Plazacorp) - Real Estate -

    I thought about buying a unit there, but there are going to be over 1000 units in this project alone! What happens if the market turns? You and 500 other investors will be selling at the sametime. Plus, the price is not good enough you can rent it out and breakeven so you are not "forced" to...

    Buying a Parking Spot with Condo a necessity?

    don't forget to add the condo fee you will have to pay on top of your regular maintenance for the parking spot. but i agree, parking spots are generally a good investment.

    Toronto Casa | 147.52m | 46s | Cresford | a—A

    Mode Yeah, and that's the only reason why I have an unit as CASA... I bought an unit at MODE few years ago. Two bedroom two bath, 1000 sqft including parking for 330k. Now i have a much smaller unit with NO parking for only about 50k less than that. They did offer me a 30k rebate which was a...

    Toronto Casa | 147.52m | 46s | Cresford | a—A

    yeah, the finishings are pretty much the same as they had promised. Scavolini kitchens, stainless steel appliances, engineered floor in principal rooms, glass tiled blacksplashes.. there weren't tons of options but the ones they had were acceptable. I didn't do any upgrades as I find builders...

    Toronto Charlie Condos | 122.83m | 36s | Great Gulf | Diamond Schmitt

    Spoke with someone at Baker Real Estate, the sales is scheduled to begin in March.. Interesting to see how the sales go with this one! Great location, but at low 200s for I am assuming a studio, it ain't cheap!

    Toronto Casa | 147.52m | 46s | Cresford | a—A

    I heard someone said this building will be steel framed, can someone confirm this? If so, what does this mean to the construction time frame? I am assuming it will be built faster?

    Toronto Casa | 147.52m | 46s | Cresford | a—A

    I think you should keep the unit.. I just baught a unit at CASA after Cresford cancelled my original purchase at MODE. I am glad I did, especially after hearing all the hype at 1BE. My unit also faces East on a lower floor, I don't think lack of view will impact the resale value too much as...

    Co-Buyers - Is it the way to go?

    I am a real estate agent and had purchased several investment properties with other investors/friends. They have turned out quite well as long you define the boundaries of your co-ownership early on.. Its also good to open a separate account to withdrawal all expenses from...

    New Construction Deals Downtown?

    haven't seen anything about 1BE yet, but based on the price per sqft, they better have damn good finishings or amazing views... You can still get into CASA for about 400- 450 per sqft the last time i checked..
