The outlook for the GTA real estate market is healthy with strong buying intentions, a near-record sales forecast of more than 100,000, and a record average selling price over $1 million so far in January 2021. The pandemic certainly resulted in an unprecedented year for real estate in 2020, but it hasn’t put a damper on the overall demand, said Jason Mercer, TRREB Chief Market Analyst. Looking ahead, a strengthening economy and renewed GTA population growth following wide...spread vaccinations will support the continued demand for both ownership and rental housing. But over the long run, the supply of listings will remain an issue, particularly in low-rise segments. January 2021 home sales amounted to 6,928 up by more than 50 per cent compared to January 2020. This strong start to 2021 included sales growth across all major segments including condominium apartments, both in the City of Toronto and surrounding GTA regions. New listings were also up on a year-over-year basis in January, but not by the same annual rate as sales. This means market conditions tightened compared to January 2020, resulting in the continuation of double-digit growth in the MLS Home Price Index and the average selling price. The average selling price for January 2021 was up by 15.5 per cent to $967,885 year-over-year. The MLS HPI Composite Benchmark was up by 11.9 per cent over the same period. Price growth was driven by the low-rise market segments, while the average condo apartment price was down in Toronto. However, if we continue to see condo sales growth outstrip condo listings growth, we could start to see renewed growth in condo prices later this year. If you would like to discuss more about the market and it’s implications for Toronto/Markham Real Estate we’d love to invite you for a Zoom/ Meeting or Whatsapp chat!

2020 has been an extraordinary year for everyone, including for G+G, in a myriad of ways. While real estate is our business and livelihood, when the pandemic hit, our priority was simply keeping everybody safe. We’re very happy to report that despite the trying circumstances and uncertainties we faced, G+G had a record breaking year. Gencan is a repeat (running it back, baby ) Hall of Fame Award recipient in our brokerage - recognition of top level production. Genuine was ...a HOFer as well, and was also the #1 top producer in the company More than ever, we realized what it means when even the province deemed real estate an essential service/business, and that we are to continue working through the pandemic. While we followed the strictest Covid protocols when conducting our work, keeping everyone as safe as can be, it is clear safety and protection is ultimately found in the home. We learned in a profound way that in these precarious, perilous times, the scorching hot market, our clients’ determination reflected a fundamental human need - a shelter, a refuge from it all. Isn’t that why it’s been widely advocated for us all to stay home? There’s no place like it, especially now, and we are so humbled, so happy that we’ve played a part for so many of you in finding your haven, safe harbor from the ills of the world. G+G sincerely thank you from our hearts for entrusting us to serve you during this significant new chapter in your lives! We also want to take a moment to thank our wonderful brokerage Landpower Real Estate Ltd. for all their support, without which we definitely wouldn’t have achieved our new milestone. From the back and front office staff, brokers Stephen Li, Mary YH Lee, David Tong, Vincent Fong, you’ve made this all possible for us. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas, an ever brighter and more prosperous new year. God bless.

Happy to have helped our newly wed couple clients purchase this beautiful brand new condo in Scarborough!

Near the end of 2020 when our client asked us to sell their condo, they were worried that their sale may be impacted with decreased activity due to the holidays and the pandemic. However, being local experts (subject property is only steps away from the Landpower office) we were confident that if we exposed the property to the market, taking advantage of every opportunity we had with every showing request, responding to all inquiries, that the intrinsic value of the property ...would still attract buyers. In the end, we triggered enough interest the property, even having multiple offers! Not only were we able to help our clients sell over their expected asking price, we also established a new high price for 1 plus den units in the building! No matter what the real estate climate is at the time, we are proud to say we always give it our best to make the most out of every opportunity Congratulations to our clients on selling their condo property at a record high price.

In October 2020, Home sales in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) were up again year-over-year for the fourth month in a row. Our Members made 10,563 sales as reported through the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board’s MLS System. This was up by 25.1 per cent compared to 8,445 transactions in October 2019. Sales and new listings reached record levels for the month of October. However, year-over-year growth rates for sales and new listings diverged in some market segments. In the d...etached market segment, the pace of annual sales growth far outstripped growth in new listings. Conversely, the condominium apartment market segment experienced more than double the new listings compared to October 2019, whereas sales were only up by 2.2 per cent over the same period. Competition between buyers of single-family homes, and particularly detached houses, remained strong last month and continued to support double-digit annual rates of price growth in many GTA neighbourhoods. In contrast, condo buyers have benefitted from much more choice compared to last year. Pre-COVID polling had already pointed to an increase in investor selling in 2020. The pandemic only added to this trend with a stall in economic growth and a halt to tourism impacting cashflows for many investors, said Lisa Patel, TRREB’s President. The MLS HPI Composite Benchmark was up by 10.8 per cent on a year-over-year basis in October 2020. The average selling price for all home types combined was $968,318 up by 13.7 per cent compared to $851,877 in October 2019. Year-to-date home sales through October were above last year’s level. The economic recovery in some sectors coupled with low borrowing costs has kept home purchases top-of-mind for many GTA residents. With this being said, we have not accounted for all of the pent-up demand that resulted from the spring downturn. Expect record or near-record home sales for the remainder of 2020, said Jason Mercer, TRREB’s Chief Market Analyst.

Selling an assignment can be challenging especially during these times. On top of all the uncertainties, the stress of financial planning and job insecurity, there’s also practical issues to tackle, such as: tax implications upon selling, secondly, there are often limitations to when you can sell, thirdly, the profit you may earn needs to make sense, and finally, you need to find a buyer who has deep pockets and strong cash flow. With G+Gs experience in assignment deals, we ...were able to navigate our clients through a myriad of questions, make proper referrals to professionals regarding legal and taxation issues, explaining the benefits and risks of the deal. All the while negotiating a competitive price at the market value, completing this in less than 3 weeks of listing. Congratulations to our clients on selling their assignment property at an amazing price and timing!

This home smashed G+G's record - we beat out 34 other competitors in an intense bidding war to win this home for the client. You may think this home was overpriced. Give us a minute to explain. Did this home now become the most expensive home in the neighborhood? Yes it did, it raised the bar. However, this home also had the single largest lot in the area with more than a quarter of an acre (measuring almost 200ft at its deepest point), backing on to the Cedar Valley Park wi...th mature evergreens lining the property for extra exclusivity and privacy. The backyard and the renovated interiors by the designer owners was truly a sight to behold, more than justifying the competitiveness of the 35 suitors. As our client went for the final bid, he asked us a question that aptly described the home. "Do you think this home is TIMELESS?" Without hesitation, we said yes. The rest is history as they say. Most importantly, the wonderful history that these clients will now build with their beautiful family here in the days ahead. We are overjoyed for them.

As the exodus from downtown core intensifies due to the changing nature of work, 106 Poplar became an exemplar property for a young family to relocate to. While $660,000 can only buy you a small 2 bedroom in the downtown core now, my clients have wisely decided to move to Aurora, where it's close to Hwy 404 and the GO Train, for a semi-detached home of more than 2000 sqft, 3 bedrooms, plus a backyard that faces a public green space to boot. The affordability of a property doe...s not equate to a compromise of a standard of living! This is undoubtedly a wonderful choice that many young couples can look to and consider. We are very happy to have played a part in this wonderful choice our clients made. Congratulations to our clients for being able to call this their new home.

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board President Lisa Patel announced that sales reported through TRREB’s MLS System by Greater Toronto Area REALTORS amounted to 11,083 a new record for the month of September. This result was up by 42.3 per cent compared to September 2019. Following a record third quarter, sales through the first nine months of 2020 were up by approximately one per cent compared to the same period in 2019. Improving economic conditions and extremely low bor...rowing costs sustained record-level sales in September, as we continued to account for the substantial amount of pent-up demand that resulted from the spring downturn. Further improvements in the economy, including job growth, would support strong home sales moving forward. However, it will be important to monitor the trajectory of COVID-19 cases, the related government policy response, and the impact on jobs and consumer confidence, said Ms. Patel. Year-over-year sales growth in September continued to be driven by ground-oriented market segments, including detached and semi-detached houses and townhouses. The average selling price for all home types combined in September was $960,772 up by 14 per cent year-over-year. Price growth was driven by the low-rise market segments. The relatively better supplied condominium apartment segment experienced a comparatively slower pace of price growth. On a GTA-wide basis, market conditions tightened in September relative to last year, with sales increasing at a faster pace than new listings. With competition between buyers increasing noticeably, double-digit year-over-year price growth was commonplace throughout the region in September, resulting in the overall average selling price reaching a new record, said Jason Mercer, TRREB’s Chief Market Analyst.
