The document discusses home sales and prices in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) for April 2013. It reports that home sales declined modestly by 2% compared to April 2012, indicating demand is strengthening after double-digit declines earlier in the year. The average home price in the GTA rose 2% to a new high of $526,335, with price increases across all housing segments. The condo apartment segment in Toronto saw a 6% price rise and was a major driver of overall price growth. This strong condo performance and price increases could mean stronger price growth in the second half of 2013 than previously forecast.
Sales, new listings, and average home prices in the Greater Toronto Area increased substantially in May 2012 compared to the previous year. Sales grew 11% overall with the strongest growth in regions surrounding Toronto. New listings also rose more than 20%. The average home price increased 6.5% to $516,787. While price growth for low-rise homes was strong, the real estate board representative noted that if new listings continue to increase, annual price growth will likely moderate.
- Total home sales in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) declined slightly in July 2012 compared to July 2011, with a 1.5% decrease. This was attributed to a decline in condominium sales in Toronto.
- The average home selling price in the GTA rose 4% year-over-year to $476,947 in July 2012. However, the MLS Home Price Index, which allows for an apples-to-apples price comparison, increased by a higher 7.1% over the same period.
- A TREB analyst said that with more housing supply in recent months, buyers had more options, reducing upward pressure on home prices in July compared to previous years.
- The Toronto real estate market started 2013 with a slight decline in home sales compared to the previous year, but the rate of decline was much lower than in the second half of 2012, suggesting buyers are becoming active again.
- Detached homes in 416 saw a 2.7% increase in average price from the previous January, while 905 detached homes saw a 6.8% increase. Overall average home prices rose 4.3% year-over-year.

However, some services like electricity, internet access, and massages will see the tax rate increase to 13% with the introduction of the HST. The tax changes are part of a comprehensive tax package that provides $11.8 billion in tax relief to Ontario residents over three years.

How are the homes for sale in Woodbridge, Maple and Toronto doing?Fabio Recine
- The Toronto real estate market is improving with a 21% increase in home sales and 9.5% rise in average prices in June 2011 compared to June 2010. This indicates the market is recovering.
- The strong sales in June capped off an interesting first half of 2011 for the Toronto market. While sales were initially sluggish, they rebounded in May and June.
- With continued affordable prices and interest rates, buyers remain confident in purchasing homes. However, tighter inventory has increased competition between buyers and accelerated annual price growth in the second quarter.

The housing market in the Greater Toronto Area is expected to have record sales and price growth in 2010, but both sales and prices will begin to moderate in the second half of the year and into 2011. New home sales will increase to 42,000 units in 2010, with high-rise sales jumping 50% and housing starts rising 34% to 36,400 units. The unemployment rate in Toronto will fall slightly to an average of 9% in 2010 as employment gains push the rate lower in 2011, supporting homeownership demand.
The document provides 50 strategies for maximizing the appeal of a home for sale. It covers preparing helpful information for buyers, creating a warm interior mood, tidying overlooked interior areas, sprucing up the exterior, storing goods, and final preparations. Suggestions include providing photos, bills, warranties and community documents, using lighting, music and scents, tidying furniture, floors, and beds, and ensuring the yard and windows are clean and tidy.

Information courtesy of the Toronto Real Estate Board.
TREB
While Toronto’s residential home
sales were down in the month of
August, the average selling price
rose to $479,095 – an almost 6.5
percent increase compared to the
same time last year.
The annual rate of price growth
was driven by the low-rise home
segment in the City of Toronto,
including single-detached homes
with an average annual price
increase of 15 percent.
“While sales were down year-
over-year in the GTA, so too were
new listings. As a result, market
conditions remained quite tight
with substantial competition
between buyers in the low-rise
market segment,” said Jason
Mercer, Toronto Real Estate Board
(TREB) Senior Manager of Market
Analysis. “The trends for sales and
new listings are moving somewhat
in sync, suggesting that the
relationship between sales and
listings will continue to promote
price growth moving forward.”
TREB President Ann Hannah,
addressing the fact that residential
transactions were down in August
2012 compared to August 2011,
suggested the stricter mortgage
lending guidelines that came
into effect in July, coupled with
relatively higher home prices,
together with the upfront cost
associated with the City of Toronto’s
Land Transfer Tax, all played roles
in the decrease.

Did you know indoor air quality is often worse than
outdoor air? It’s actually not surprising when you consider
that just about everything in our homes – from the carpet
under our feet to the paint on our walls, and the products
we clean with to the adhesives in our furniture – contains
toxic chemicals that emit volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) like benzene and formaldehyde into the air
we breathe.
Many people buy expensive air purifiers to combat poor
air quality and help mitigate the health risks thereof, but
why not use plants, Mother Nature’s own air purifiers?
Not only do plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen,
they filter toxins like those mentioned above from the
air, turning them into plant food. They also emit mold
inhibitors from their leaves and add humidity to the air,
helping combat respiratory problems and allergies. Plus,
houseplants are actually more effective than commercial
purifiers at filtering pollutants from the air, they don’t
require electricity to do their job, and they add to, rather
than detract from, the aesthetics of your décor.
Here are some tips to help your houseplants be the most
effective natural air purifiers they can be: choose organic
houseplants grown without pesticides; pot them in
containers not made of plastic; allot one plant for every
100 square feet, avoid placing them in areas where they’ll
be susceptible to drafts and temperature fluctuations;
use a damp cloth to keep their leaves, which absorb the
toxins, free of dust; and remember, the healthier the
houseplant, the more potent a purifier it is.
While all houseplants are helpful in removing toxins from
the air, some are especially effective. Below are a handful
of top performers whose names you’re probably already
familiar with.
Areca Palm: An excellent natural humidifier, these are a
striking addition to interiors due to their height.
Bamboo Palm: Fast growing, these air-moisturizing plants
are great for combating dryness.
Boston Fern: Considered the most efficient filtering plant
overall, these thrive in humidity.
Dracaena: Particularly effective at removing
trichloroethylene, dracaena come in all shapes, sizes
and colors.
English Ivy: Great for those who suffer from asthma
or allergies.
Peace Lily: Easy to grow and unique due to their beautiful
white blooms.
Philodendron: Effective in filtering high concentrations of
formaldehyde, these require little attention.
Rubber Plant: Tough and requiring little light, these excel
at filtering formaldehyde.
Spider Plant: Fast growing and resilient, these are ideal
where carbon monoxide accumulates (e.g. kitchens,
near fireplaces).
Snake Plant: Nearly indestructible, these are great in
bedrooms as they produce oxygen at night.
(Note: Many plant species, including some listed here, can
be toxic to pets or people if ingested, so choose carefully.)
The Purifying Power of Plants
With an especially hot summer behind us – during which the need for air conditioning no doubt had many
people keeping their windows and doors closed – and with winter just around the corner, now seems like a
good time to talk about how to improve your home’s air quality with household plants.
3. Seeking Approval
Volume 8, Issue 10 3
What’s one of the smartest things you can do to
ensure your next home purchase goes smoothly
and quickly? Get pre-approved for a loan before you
start shopping. Here are five ways a pre-approval
may benefit you.
Settling for Less
Statistics have shown that the average selling price
of a FSBO home is significantly lower than the
average selling price of a home sold with the help of
a professional real estate representative. Why do so
many FSBO sellers make less money on their home
sale than they would have if they’d worked with a real
estate licensee?
As do-it-yourself sellers tend to factor in sentimental
value when establishing their asking price, and because
they don’t have access to the information needed to
assess their home’s market value (like comparable sales
statistics), many FSBO sellers overprice their properties,
which is the top reason why many FSBOs fail to sell.
In addition, FSBO sellers often don’t have enough time
or money to devote to marketing their property, nor
do they necessarily have access to the Multiple Listing
Service®
(MLS®
). This means a lack of exposure to buyers,
as well as to real estate professionals who use the MLS®
to find homes for the clients they represent.
A home that’s overpriced and underexposed isn’t going
to generate much interest and, as such, won’t attract
as many offers. As a result, the property lingers on the
market, and as the FSBO seller becomes increasingly
desperate to sell, their asking price gets slashed
ever lower.
If you want to sell your home more quickly, for more
money and with far less work, call your real estate
sales representative!
Homeowners are often tempted to sell “by owner,”
thinking they’ll make more money on the sale by not
having to pay anyone a commission. But going the
FSBO (For Sale By Owner) route could actually end
up costing you – literally.
Pre-approval means knowing how much your lender is
likely to let you borrow, allowing you to narrow your
search to those properties that are within your budget
rather than wasting your time looking at homes you
can’t afford. This means a more efficient home-hunting
process for you.
Being pre-approved allows you to shop around with
the peace of mind that comes from knowing that
you won’t have to worry about your purchase falling
through at the last minute and losing out on your
next dream home, due to your inability to secure a
mortgage loan.
The loan approval process takes time. Wait until you’ve
made an offer to get approved and you might lose the
home to a pre-approved buyer who can close faster
than you, especially in a fast-moving market. Pre-
approval means being able to act more quickly when
you find the right home.
As a pre-approved buyer, you’re in a stronger position
at the negotiating table because you can assure the
seller you’re serious about buying, as well as assuring
them of a faster closing and that their sale won’t fall
through because you couldn’t secure financing.
You’ll have a good idea of interest rates before
you’re ready to buy. If you find you don’t qualify
for a low interest rate, you’ll know that before
you start shopping, so you can adjust your price
range accordingly.
