We all know that the yearly tradition of guessing what will happen in Toronto real estate is about as certain as the future of bitcoin, but since a new year is upon us, I cannot […]
Have you seen Stranger Things on Netflix? Well, if you have, 2017 may very much be the year in Toronto real estate that took place in the upside down. It’s not that we had creepy […]
Let me be clear. Toronto suburbs are not going any where. They are still growing. Many people still dream of owning their own house, which is much more attainable in the suburbs. Something is changing […]
It would seem like the world has bent to their will for 50 years. The Boomers, born between 1945 and 1965 have dominated almost everything they moved through, from the rise of hippie counter-culture in […]
