If you sold a property in 2020, you need to: . Report the sale: If you sell a propertyeven if it is your principal residenceyou have to report the sale on your tax return for the year you sold the property. How you report depends on what type of property you sell. . If you sell your principal residence, you do not usually have to pay tax on any gain from the sale. This is because of the principal residence exemption.... . Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) allows the principal residence exemption only if you report the disposition and designation of the home on your income tax return. If you didn’t report the sale and designation of your principal residence in these years, you need to change your return and file a late designation for the related year as soon as possible. . If you sold a property that was not your principal residence (such as a rental property or a property that you flipped), you need to report the gain or profit you made. . Your intention matters when you buy a property. If you bought a property mainly to sell it or rent it out, or if it was a secondary property and not your principal residence, you may owe tax on any resulting gain or profit. . . #taxes #taxtime #sell #selling #sellinghomes #KellyChongProperties #KellyChong #TorontoRealtor #The6ix #Toronto #Etobicoke #SellingAndBuying #Leasing #InvestingInRealEstate #Remax #ResultsThatMoveYou #FreeMarketReport #FreeHomeEvaluation #EtobicokeRealtor #EtobicokeRealEstate See more

While modern spaces often rely heavily on natural materials, there's still room for shiny, reflective elements as well. Consider adding elements of glass, metal, and brass into your modern space, especially in the bathroom. Modern bathrooms can be a bit more adventurous than the main rooms in your house, but keep the elements streamlined and simple. . . . #EtobicokeRealEstate #farmhouse #interior #interiordecorating #interiorandhome #dailyinstainspo #decoration #interi...ordecor #home #KellyChongProperties #KellyChong #TorontoRealtor #SellingRealEstateInThe6ix #The6ix #Toronto #Etobicoke #RealEstateHustle #SellingAndBuying #Leasing #InvestingInRealEstate #Remax #ResultsThatMoveYou #FreeMarketReport #FreeHomeEvaluation #EtobicokeRealtor #EtobicokeRealEstate See more

Housing Market Projections for 2021 . . Housing demand exceeded expectations in 2020. The supply of homes available for sale were not able to keep up with the demand, which drove up the prices. According to the forecasts, the same trends will continue into 2021. The stats show that the market will favour property sellers. .... . With low inventory and high demand pushing prices, the aggregate price of a home in the GTA is anticipated to spike another 5.75 per cent by the end of next year. . . The overall projections for Canada overall, this figure is expected to rise 5.5 per cent to an average price of $746,100 significantly cheaper than residential properties in the Toronto market, of course, where the average price hovered around $955,615, even with a soft condo market. . . .

Toronto home sales rise #realtorlife #realestatesales #realestateinvesting 25% compared to last year, breaking October record TORONTO -- Real estate agents sold a record 10,563 homes in October, a 25.1% increase from October 2019 as the housing market recovers from spring's COVID-19 slowdown. This recent success has been really great for some it has not been an equal opportunity for others. Detached homes in the suburbs sold for premiums, while the downtown condo market... has flattened. Compare that to the average prices of detached homes, which rose 14.8% to $1,204,844. Simcoe County has seen benchmark house prices rise more than 20% from this time last year, and Durham Region prices are up more than 18%. In the city, the benchmark price is up a little over 7% from October 2019. As buyers competed over limited listings for detached homes, the number of condos listed for sale this October was double the number of condos that hit the market in October 2019. Condo sales rose 2.2% overall compared with this time last year, but fell 8.5% in the city of Toronto and increased 28.4% in the suburbs. The selling spree for condos comes after the rules changed in September for short-term rental websites like Airbnb. Investors in Toronto are no longer allowed to have a separate home that's solely used for renting out for days or weeks at a time. On top of that, it's harder for landlords to find renters -- such as tourists, students, and young professionals -- in the downtown core amid travel restrictions, virtual learning, and lingering joblessness during the pandemic.

Mortgage pre-approval mistakes (the don’ts) . . 1. Don’t get pre-approved over your budget Don’t make the upper ceiling of your mortgage pre-approval your maximum purchase price. Do your own calculations, figure out how much you can afford monthly (don’t forget the other costs associated with homeownership, not just the mortgage) and go from there.... . . 2. Hold off on major purchases Once you’ve submitted your documentation to your loan officer, your financial situation shouldn’t change from pre-approval to loan finalization. Changes to your financial situation could ultimately result in loan rejection, even if you were initially pre-approved. To avoid rejection, don’t make any major purchases that change your debt service ratios. . . 3. Don’t apply for new credit You also shouldn’t apply for new forms of credit, like a personal loan or credit card, and don’t co-sign a loan for a friend or family member. Your debt level and available credit are both factors in mortgage approval, so increasing them may risk your pre-approval. . . 4. Don’t quit or change jobs Finally, avoid changes to your employment status after you’ve been pre-approved. Steady and predictable income is crucial to most mortgage applications. Changing jobs or becoming self-employed will definitely throw a wrench into the mortgage approval process. Instead, hold off changing employers or starting a company until after you have the keys to your new place. . . If you're thinking of making a move DM or call Kelly Chong @ 416 727 5359.
