Hey friend…I think more Toronto buyers should know this right now: you’re allowed to negotiate. Like, REALLY negotiate.

This isn’t 2021 anymore. Homes are sitting longer, there’s more to choose from, and sellers are more open to a real conversation than people think. I’ve had buyers hesitate to even make an offer below asking because they assumed it wasn’t worth trying or they might offend the seller.

Don’t.

Whether you are looking at homes in Danforth, Leaside, or a condo in Cityplace, St Lawrence Market or Yonge-Eglinton, there are a lot of sellers whose bottom line is actually well below the listing price.

We just had a first-time buyer offer $100,000 below the asking price. When we pulled the comps, its value was about $50k below….but today’s market is different. And we leverage that for the Toronto buyers.


It’s always worth trying. Worst case, they say no. Best case, you just saved yourself real money.

We always make sure you’re getting the deal. 23 years in the business, and buyer regret is something we don’t deal with.

Its true. Almost two decades as a a Toronto realtor and I still worry about this stuff.

Here’s the thing nobody tells you when you’re buying a Toronto home: the stuff that actually matters is rarely the stuff that photographs well. It’s not the kitchen island. It’s whether that water heater is owned or rented, and what that’s quietly costing you every month for the next however-many years. It’s the panel in the basement. It’s the roof nobody mentions until it’s your problem.

I treat every single client like they’re my best friend buying their first home. Because that’s genuinely how I think about it. I ask the annoying questions. I slow down the showing. I will absolutely be the person standing in your basement going “so... who owns this tank?” while you’re trying to picture where the couch goes.

You can be charmed by a house. I just don’t want you surprised by it six months later.

That’s the job. Not just finding you a perfect Toronto home — making sure nothing about it finds you first.

📍Toronto. East York

Okay, real talk — 3 East York neighbourhoods where you can actually walk to everything and not blow your whole budget doing it.

Danforth Village-East York — You’re basically a few minutes from the Danforth without paying Danforth prices. Coffee, groceries, the subway, all right there. Honestly, half the people I know who live here found it by accident, were looking somewhere else entirely, and just... ended up here instead.

East End-Danforth — A little further out, but still walkable to everything you need day to day. The prices here just haven’t caught up to the hype yet, and I kind of love that for you.

Woodbine-Lumsden — This one’s quieter, more residential, but you’re still a short walk from Danforth or Woodbine station, shops, decent coffee. It’s the kind of street that looks unassuming from the sidewalk and then you move in and go “oh, I get it now.”

None of these are going to stay under-the-radar forever. They’re just not priced like people have caught on yet.

If you’re looking in the east end and want to actually walk places without the downtown price tag, drop WALKABLE below, let’s find your fit.

“How’s the Toronto market?” is the wrong question to ask when you’re thinking about selling.

The Toronto real estate market isn’t one single thing. A Leslieville semi in the $900Ks moves differently than a Liberty Village condo at $650K. The Danforth in spring behaves differently than Birchcliffe in fall. A city-wide average tells you almost nothing about your specific Toronto home.

The real question: what is the Toronto market doing right now for homes like yours — in your neighbourhood, at your price point, in your property type?

That’s what we actually look at: comparable sales in your specific Toronto neighbourhood over the last 60-90 days, days on market for similar homes, whether those comparables sold over or under asking and by how much, current inventory at your price point, and real buyer activity in your range.

23 years watching the Toronto market street by street, neighbourhood by neighbourhood. That kind of read doesn’t come from a citywide average.

+ An outdoor OASIS that cannot be put into words (Seriously…we are trying!)

+ An outdoor covered living space to watch football in

+ A meditation deck with sunset views over the neighbouring fields
+ Evenings on the covered patio, grill going, pool just below

If you’re thinking about selling in East York, this one’s for you.

The East York market isn’t slow. But some homes are sitting. Look closely at what’s lingering in Riverdale, Danforth, Broadview North, and across East York, and a pattern shows up fast.

Most of them share at least one of these:

→ Priced for a market that isn’t actually happening right now

→ Photos that don’t do the home justice or help a buyer picture their life there

→ A description that sells the house instead of the lifestyle

→ No strategy at launch, no momentum out of the gate

→ Marketing that starts and ends with the MLS

Buyers in East York haven’t disappeared. They’ve just gotten more selective. Homes that are priced accurately, presented beautifully, and marketed strategically are still selling… and still selling fast.

The real question was never “can I sell my home in East York?”

It’s “who’s actually going to make that happen?”

I asked my buyers how they knew they’d found the right Toronto neighbourhood before buying their home. Their answers had nothing to do with square footage or school ratings.

It was smaller things…running into a neighbour before they even had keys, not missing their old commute, stopping the late-night scroll through other cities. The kind of details that don’t show up on a listing but end up mattering more than almost anything else.

If you’re buying a home in Toronto right now, the right neighbourhood usually isn’t the one that checks every box. It’s the one where you stop looking.

Thinking about buying in Toronto and not sure which neighbourhood actually fits your life? That’s the conversation I have with every buyer before we even start touring homes. DM me and let’s figure out yours.

This is the part of the job I actually find hard.

You know this home in a way that no buyer ever will on a first showing. You know the light in that kitchen in January, when it comes in low and catches everything perfectly. You know the backyard on a July evening. You know what it took to get the garden where it is. You know which neighbours wave and which ones don’t. You know the sound of the street.

None of that is in the listing description. And none of it is in the price.

The buyer walking through has been looking on Realtor.ca for four months. They have a spreadsheet. They know every comparable. They are looking at your home against everything else in their budget in your Toronto neighbourhood, and they are doing math, not remembering summer evenings.

That gap — between what the home means to you and what it means to the market, is the hardest part of selling. Not logistically. Emotionally.

And I think Toronto sellers deserve someone who names that gap honestly, instead of pretending it isn’t there.

What I can promise you is this: we price from the market data, not from sentiment. But we’ve been doing this long enough to know that there’s a person on the other side of every sale, not just a transaction.

We take both seriously.

Drop SELLER in the comments or DM us. We’ll walk through your specific street’s recent sales and tell you what they actually mean for your home …not the headline number, the full picture.

Northwest views. Floor-to-ceiling windows. A balcony that catches sun all day long.

That’s the pitch before I even get to the layout.

This corner suite at 35 Rolling Mills is 2 bed + den, open concept, with a kitchen island made for people who actually cook and a dining area big enough for people who actually host. Light wood floors, clean finishes, nothing trying too hard.

The den flexes to whatever your life needs right now — office, nursery, guest room, storage for your Peloton you swore you’d use.

Location does the rest: Canary District, steps to the Distillery District, St. Lawrence Market, Corktown Common. Parking and locker included.

This is what “location, location, location” actually looks like.

35 Rolling Mills Road FOR SALE. Message me for a tour
