Considered as one of North America’s consistently hot real estate markets, Toronto has enjoyed sustained growth for the past 20 years. There are still quite a few hot markets around the GTA area. When times are high, when times are low, there are always great deals in the GTA market, according to Monica I, one of Toronto’s best “people-oriented” real estate agents. (What a great attitude she has).
Monica points out a great recent online article from CMHC. CMHC Canada states that “The decline in housing starts in 2009 are because of a several factors, including the current economic climate, increased competition from the existing home market, and the impact of strong house price growth from 2002. Housing starts are expected to improve throughout 2009 and over the next several years to gradually become more closely aligned to demographic demand, which is currently estimated at about 175,000 units per year, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s (CMHC).
Another great online article from CMHC that Monica points out to her clients was this. CMHC Canada states that year-over-year, starts are still down. In May 2009, there were 760 starts in Atlantic Canada’s urban centres, compared to 1,094 in May 2008. In Quebec, there were 3,594, down from 4,659. In Ontario, urban starts fell to 3,665, from 6,570. Housing starts are expected to increase to 150,300 in 2010, from 141,900 in 2009, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s (CMHC) second quarter Housing Market Outlook report. “Market activity will begin to strengthen in 2010 as the Canadian economy recovers, bringing housing starts more in line with demographic fundamentals over the forecast period,” says Bob Dugan, chief economist for CMHC.
In todays marketplace, you need a good real estate agent. And from I have seen, she prides herself on a level of customer service that is unmatched by any other Toronto real estate agent. Talk to one of her past clients, you will see what I mean. Referrals are the ultimate compliment for a job well done, and almost every week, she gets a voicemail, a new referral.
As a real estate agent, Monica can simplify your real estate search process by listening to your market and home needs. Once understanding your needs, she then utilizes cutting edge research technologies, along with contacting some of her information sources to find you the right home that matches your needs. Every since her first day in real estate, Monica strives to help Toronto home buyers and sellers make better informed decisions by providing them with informative articles and up to date MLS listings, all related to the property they wish to sell or purchase. She is a wealth of neighbourhood knowledge.
