The real estate market in central Toronto is very confusing right now. Is it down? Is it crashing? Is it okay? What's going to happen? Here are a few thoughts to help you figure things out.

For the past twenty five years or so, with two exceptions that I can remember, most market updates have shared some similar themes. Demand exceeding supply. Homes selling quickly. Multiple offers being common. Prices increasing. Sound familiar? The first exception occurred in the fall of 2008. The m...

As a seller, choosing the right list price (also referred to as your pricing strategy) is probably the single most important factor in determining how much your home will sell for and how quickly it will sell. But your list price might be even more important for buyers than it is for you. Why? Becau...

Trying to understand what's going on in the market these days is like trying to crack a complicated computer code. Except a computer code is usually based in logic and the market isn't. Here's something to help give you an understanding of what's happening:

Crazy. That’s the word I’ve been hearing people use to describe the residential real estate market in central Toronto this year. Crazy means different things to different people, but I think most people mean the market has been surprising, unpredictable, out of the ordinary or shocking. They cou...

People say "This is a beautiful house, Michael." What can I say? I didn't have anything to do with it. My clients have good taste and take really good care of their home. I WILL say, though, that I'd love to spend time in their backyard. Just look at those photos!
