Here are the Ontario cities where homes are selling fastest right now

January 28, 2023 admin

It’s no secret that home sales have been tanking across the Greater Toronto Area since interest rates started spiking through the roof in Canada last year, even despite moderate price declines.

With sales down down 38.2 per cent for the GTA in 2022 (nearly 50 per cent in December alone,) Toronto’s real estate market has definitely cooled off since the overheated days of 2021 — but not all markets in Ontario have been equally impacted.

Real estate brokerage and analysis firm Zoocasa recently looked into which parts of the region are still competitive for Ontario buyers and sellers (more competitive,

Paige Wassel was working as a freelance prop stylist in Los Angeles when she decided to move back to her hometown of Chicago and buy a 700-square-foot condo. “I wanted something small that needed some work—not a full gut renovation—so I could renovate it on my own and with some help from my dad, who used to flip houses with friends as a hobby,” she says. Inspired by the process of it all, Paige started a YouTube channel on interior trends and celebrity homes, and even had her boyfriend pitch in on doing some of the work with the renovations.

How organized crime has mortgaged or sold at least 30 GTA homes without owners’ knowledge

January 26, 2023 admin

A year ago, Melissa Walsh says police assured her family it only happened to them. Fraudsters nearly sold her great uncle’s east end Toronto home without the family’s knowledge.

“We were told to move on, get over it,” she said.

But earlier this month a Toronto police press release revealed another case where scammers successfully sold a house before the real homeowners found out what happened.

And now it turns out those two cases are likely just the tip of the iceberg.

Home Improvement? Trade Spaces With This New York Home’s Slaughterhouse Vibe

January 12, 2023 admin

I enjoy watching TLC. There are shows on nutty families, medical marvels, and home improvement. The home improvement shows have taken on new meaning for me since I started writing for CandysDirt.com.

Now, one of my favorite home improvement shows was Trading Spaces. For those who are not familiar with this show, two sets of neighbors redecorate a room in each other’s home with a budget of $1,000 and they have the assistance of an interior designer provided by the show.

When designer Hildi Santo-Tomas would be one of the designers, I knew I had to make some popcorn because
