You’ve all heard the incessant radio ads, and you’ve undoubtedly heard about it from a friend or family member.
Now I’m here to review this new project; this project that I knew was a sham as soon as it was launched.
I’d rather call this “8.5-Foot-High-Ceiling Lofts, Times Two.”
Do the math for the price and for the ceiling height, and it just doesn’t add up…
A reader emailed me the other day seeking my advice on pre-construction and its viability under the current market conditions both in terms of investment and as a principal residence.
I’ve been touting pre-construction as a fantastic investment vehicle for the last three years, but times change.
As I told my curious reader, “That ship has sailed, my friend.”
A developer I know told me four years ago that if I could put together a deal for the land at the corner of St. Mary’s Street and Bay Street, that he would buy it in cash in a heartbeat.
I told him that land was long, long gone, and one day it would be a condominium.
Well, that day is here, and the condo is just around the corner…
Emerald City, eh?
That’s also the name of the experimental prison unit in the television show “OZ.”
Well, hopefully this version of Emerald City will have less fighting, stabbing, and hurt feelings…
The vacant lot at the southeast corner of Yonge & Merton has been destined for a new condominium project for quite some time.
Many of us have been eagerly awaiting the project, but eventually, our excitement died out.
“MYC” was launched this week, but in my opinion, it’s too little, too late…
Did anybody see the headline on the front of Saturday’s Toronto Sun?
It read: “Film Fest Elitist!“ It sure came as no surprise to me.
What also should come as no surprise, to anybody, is me absolutely PANNING the new Festival Tower…
“Chicago Condominiums?” I asked myself when I first got the package. Why do I care about real estate in Illinois?
Once I realized it was in Mississauga, I remained confused but this time due to the choice in name.
I mean, are there any condos in Chicago called, “Toronto Condominiums?”
Oh the irony!
As I sit here typing this post on my blog, my back is absolutely throbbing!
The ironic part? The project I’m writing about, Huntington, is going to be built on the site where the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College was just recently demolished…
How do you judge a new condominium development in terms of it’s value?
What criteria do you look at first?
Location? Design? Layout? Price? Amenities? Developer?
Any of these are crucial to the success of the project, and they all get a thumbs up in my book…
Charlie.
Oooookaaaaaaay.
Are they running out of names for condos? Is the name “Dave Condos” just not quite as cool as “Charlie”?
Say what you want about the name; the location is prime. But I have a few reservations about the project itself…
