Agent Will

What’s this all about? A realtor telling me not to buy?
You bet, kinda.
First I want you to think about why you are going to buy that presale. If it is because you want to take the opportunity to get the location you want and you agree with the price then by all means, […]

Flip. It’s got such a negative connotation to it nowadays since the housing collapse in the US rules our Canadian airwaves. Where once people were proud to be flippers they are now shunned by the remaining public. People who would find opportunities in homes priced below market and then improve them for […]

The Elan at 1255 Seymour is nearing completion. Walk through inspections have been going on at least to the 25th floor. The latest word is that completion will be announced sometime next week with phased move ins starting shortly.

From the marketing emails:
110 Fresh Residences. 10 Foot Ceilings. Stand tall at Alto Condominiums!
