- 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. The goal is to make the home inviting and to minimize any potential negatives that could turn away buyers.

1. Prices Rise, Sales Settle
Information courtesy of the Toronto Real Estate Board.
TREB
Summer results from the Toronto
Real Estate Board (TREB) showed
a total of 7,570 sales in July 2012,
a slight decline from totals a year
earlier, with the difference attributed
to the condominium apartment
segment in the City of Toronto.
TREB President Ann Hannah
explained the 1.5 percent decrease
in sales from July 2012 compared to
July 2011: “Very strong annual sales
growth in the first half of 2012 and
an earlier peak in sales this spring
compared to 2011 help explain more
moderate sales this summer. New
mortgage lending guidelines and
the additional upfront cost of the
City of Toronto land transfer tax also
prompted some households to put
their buying decision on hold.”
The average selling price in July
2012 was $476,947 – up by four
percent compared to July 2011. The
Multiple Listing Service®
Home Price
Index (MLS®
HPI) composite index,
which allows for an apples-to-apples
comparison of benchmark home
prices from one year to the next, was
up by 7.1 percent year-over-year.
“The GTA housing market became
better-supplied in recent months.
Buyers benefited from more choice
in the marketplace, resulting in less
upward pressure on the average
home price in July,” said Jason
Mercer, TREB Senior Manager of
Market Analysis.

Poor Lighting
When done right, lighting lends a room a warm, inviting
atmosphere while providing enough light to carry out the
tasks for which you use the room. Too common, however,
are rooms so dark they give new meaning to “man cave”
or so harshly lit they make you feel like you’re on stage.
Often, the problem is a single overhead fixture. Rooms
should have three layers of light: ambient, for general
lighting; accent, for highlighting features like bookcases or
artwork; and task, for reading in the bedroom or chopping
veggies in the kitchen, for example. Dimmer switches and
soft white light bulbs are very useful in the creation of
good lighting schemes.
Hanging Artwork Too High
Make artwork difficult to see and you defeat its purpose.
Hang it where it can be comfortably viewed: at eye level.
Keep in mind that “eye level” differs between standing and
sitting positions, of course, so when hanging art, consider
where it will be viewed from – art to be viewed while
seated at your dining table should be hung lower than art
in your hallway, for instance. Rules of thumb: “eye level”
for most people is 60 to 65 inches from the floor to the
center of the artwork; there should be six to eight inches
between the top of a furniture piece and the bottom of
the artwork hung above it, so that the art anchors to,
rather than floats above the furniture.
Clutter
Accessory overload is an all too common affliction:
picture frames obscuring every available surface,
collectibles everywhere you look… In addition
to being visually draining and making rooms
appear smaller than they are, clutter is mentally
draining, adding to your stress level and
making you feel a lack of control over your
life. Edit your stuff: if you don’t use or
love it, it goes; consider rotating your
knick-knacks so that only some are
out at any one time – changing
them with the seasons, for
example, can help keep your
décor fresh. For greater
impact, keep collectibles
together instead of placing
them throughout the room.
Awkward Furniture Arrangements
Oft-seen mistakes include: pushing all the furniture back
against a room’s walls, leaving a void in a room’s middle,
making conversation difficult; traffic paths that don’t
allow enough walking space around your furniture or that
direct people through the conversations or activities taking
place in the room; layouts in which seating areas aren’t
accompanied by a place to set down, at the very least, a
drink; placing all the visually “heavy” pieces of furniture
on one side of the room, resulting in a space that’s
unbalanced; and overlooking proportion, in terms of how
pieces relate to each other (e.g. diminutive tables next to
oversized sofas).
Décor Don’ts
Trends come and go, but there are some décor decisions that are just never en vogue. In fact, they can
outright sabotage the look, and sometimes the functionality, of your room. Below are four mistakes that
decorating professionals would agree are cardinal decorating sins.
3. The Final Analysis
Volume 8, Issue 9 3
Not to be skipped, your final walkthrough is your last
chance to ensure your new home is conveyed to
you in satisfactory condition. Here are a few words
of advice about your pre-closing viewing.
At Your Service
A professional cleaning service. Whether you hire
them to get your home sparkling clean from top to
bottom before it goes on the market, or just to come in
regularly to maintain things while it’s for sale (or both),
a cleaning service can do wonders for your stress levels.
A professional organizer. Don’t know how to tackle
your clutter? So used to it you can’t even see it? An
organizer can simply identify your problem areas
and provide you with a to-do list, or get hands-on in
helping you clear your clutter. You’d be surprised how
affordable their services can be.
Temporary storage. Showing your home off at its
most spacious state might necessitate off-site storage.
Portable containers are ideal for those on the move
– have your things delivered right to your new door!
There are even climate-controlled storage units for your
more delicate stuff.
Junk removal service. What to do with all that clutter,
the dilapidated furniture taking up space? If you’ve got
a lot of stuff you don’t want going with you to your
new address, consider hiring a junk removal company
(perhaps even a green one – they exist!) to deal with it
before buyers see it.
True, such services are an additional expense, but when
you consider that studies have consistently shown
the return on investment for simply cleaning and
decluttering to be around $2,000, a little professional
help may be well worth the cost.
Surveys agree that cleaning and decluttering is
the most low-cost, high-return home improvement
a seller can make. To help you get (and keep)
your home clean and clutter-free, consider availing
yourself of any of the following services.
If the seller is present during your walkthrough, it may
be beneficial. No one knows the property better, so it’s
a great opportunity to ask questions about it, your new
neighbors, or the neighborhood. Also ask for their new
contact info, for forwarding mail after you’ve moved in.
Your real estate representative should attend your
walkthrough. Not only can they keep you from getting
distracted (mentally arranging your furniture), they
know what to check for, and should there be problems,
can advise you of your options and immediately contact
the seller’s representative.
If permitted, take a camera so you can document any
problems. If you took any photos of the home during
previous visits, bring them along too, so you can
compare its condition then to its condition now, as well
as identify and more closely investigate spots that were
covered by furniture or rugs, for example.
Bring your contract so you can ensure that all items
included in the sale have been left behind and that all
agreed-upon repairs have been made. You might also
want to bring the home-inspection report so you can
check if any problems revealed (but not repaired per
the contract) have gotten worse.
Ask the seller to provide you with any manuals and
warranties for the home’s appliances and such.
Warranties and invoices for any work done on the home
before closing will also be very useful to you as the new
owner, so ask for those too.
