What a fabulous couple of weeks it has been! I was thrilled to list exclusively this amazing 6 plex apartment building in downtown Whitby. Having tried to list before through MLS a few years ago, my clients didn’t want their tenants to go through that process again, especially in the midst of a pandemic. My clients and I had been talking for months and I felt confident now was the time to sell and with our database of qualified buyers we could get them the asking price ...they were seeking. Got to LOVE happy endings! Not only did they receive what they were looking for, my Buyer clients were equally thrilled to receive my call about this opportunity. Multiple offers received Sold conditional in less then a week Sold FIRM the following week which is very rare for commercial properties especially during a pandemic!

This space could function for many purposes as suggested. However, if you would rather a... larger footprint inside and outside your home consider exploring Durham Region!

Are you curious to know what Real Estate experts are predicting for the remainder of 2020 and into 2021? REMAX Canada released yesterday their fall outlook report for the markets across Canada. There is a lot of great information in this blog post and wanted to hi-light information specific to Durham and Kawartha Lakes regions. Click the link below for information all across Canada. 32% of Canadians no longer want to live in large urban centres, and instead would opt for rur...al or suburban communities, this trend is stronger among Canadians aged 55 and under (Survey conducted by Leger) Work and life dynamics have shifted needs and wants for homes. Rural areas and cottage properties have seen an increase in buyer interest, as working from home continues to be an option for many. 44% of Canadians would like a home with more space for personal amenities, such as a pool, balcony or a large yard. Experts predict the Durham housing market should continue to see a healthy amount of interest and activity over the next 12 months, due to its larger homes and properties in relation to nearby Toronto, coupled with a growing university, new malls and the Hwy. 407 expansion. Based on these factors, the Durham housing market is expected to see a 14% increase in average residential prices for the remainder of the year. Not only is this a great time to consider selling, but mortgage rates are also at an all time low which is fantastic for buyers. If you are curious or have any questions please reach out to me for a no obligation, honest discussion. or Text 416-568-2893 email: [email protected] There are opportunities out there for buyers AND sellers.

The market has changed! I have posted on this for months. We have seen Cottage sales on the rise as well a scarcity of cottage rentals which presents a great investment opportunity for cottage owners! People are looking for alternative ways to vacation locally. Muskoka has seen an increase in cottage prices of 15% this year. The market in the Kawartha Lakes region has also been strong, however the affordability factor and proximity to the GTA makes this area a great option fo...r many. Are you a first time buyer? Maybe it is time to shift your search further north and east? Do you own home? Maybe it is time to consider utilizing some of the equity in your home to put towards recreational property? It is a big decision and it is important to work with an expert in the region. This is my 6th year on Sturgeon Lake in the Kawarthas. The investment my family made has been one of the best decisions both financially and for the wonderful experiences shared with family and friends. Maybe it is time for you to "dip a toe" and begin exploring this as a viable option for you and your family. Please reach out for a no obligation chat to learn more about what country life is all about! Life is better in the Kawarthas! #livingkawartha #lovewhereyoucottage #soldbykare See more
