Real estate is a long-term investment and we want to build a long-term relationship with you! We’ve started a Toronto Real Estate webinar series to help educate you on the Real Estate market in today’s economy, equipping you with the ability to make fully informed, strategic decisions based on your needs, values and goals. This month we covered what happened in the Toronto Real Estate market in 2020, predictions on what we could see happen in 2021, as well as upcoming pre-construction opportunities we are working on getting for our clients.

Sales soared across all property types in the Greater Toronto Area, (GTA), with 95,000 home sales in 2020, making this is the third-best year on record for home sales in the GTA. The average selling price was $932,222. Pierre Carapetian, Broker for over 14 years, states, "A lot of people ask me if it is a good time to buy right now and it’s important to take a look at what history has shown us. In the 14 years that I have been a Broker, condominium prices have only come down ...only once and that was during the 2008 financial crisis. The depression in prices lasted 6 months where prices dropped 5-10%, and then after 6 months they went up 10-20% higher than they were before. The depression was short lived, and those who made the most amount of money were the people who acted during this period of time. I always caution people that our current situation due to the Covid-19 pandemic could be short lived given that it is circumstantial, and there seems to be an end to this apocalypse in sight." He further adds, "I see 2021 being a big year for equity growth and if you are a savvy investor and looking to enter the Real Estate market, now could be your last opportunity to get into the condominium market at a depressed value of what it was. This opportunity could be short lived, as we may have already seen a bottom and we could see a very rapid recovery like we did during the global financial crisis in 2008."

How often do you raise your rental property’s rent price? Holly Johnson and her husband own two rental properties, and have only raised the rent on one of them in the past 10 years, and that too only by $40. Although common practice is that landlords raise the rent to meet market value and to yield a profit, keeping quality renters helps this couple save time and energy, and avoid the stress involved in finding new tenants. I don't mind taking a slight hit on profits to save... everyone involved some time, energy, and stress, says Holly. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this! Comment down below. Read the full article
