Hi Androiduk, Do you any good property management company? I need to rent out mine. Really appreciate your help!

Dear UT Members, Is anyone know any good property management company for renting and managing the unit? I would like to rent out mine. Really appreicate for your help and thanks!

Again, thank you all for your kind inputs. I love the location and it's only 20 mins walk and 5 mins by subway from Yonge & Bloor. And with liquor store just around the corner....;p Really do hope it keeps its value with new condos all over place.

Thanks so much indeed for your generous comments. It helps a lot....!

Dear UT fellows, Anyone has comment on condo at 60 St. Clair W? Is it a good investment? Thank you all for your valuable comment if any.

Thank you all for your kind comments. I like Yonge & Charles too. But my agent told me that the unit is quite costly and 'sales on assignment' will require 91K downpayment and that will have a complicated ownership issue plus lot of legal inputs because the building is not yet registered...

Thanks you guys. I have added more information for your further comments. Now this time I replaced 3) with a new one for better comparison. 1) Yonge & Charles street - 500 + 75 balcony sq fts around 300K + NO parking + $210/m maintenance fee ( one bedrm condo + balcony ) 2) Yonge &...

There are three choices for my property investment. Would anyone kind enough to give me some advices as to which one is a better choice. I am new to Toronto area. 1) Yonge & Charles street - 600 sq fts around 300K 2) Yonge & Finch - 600 sq fts around 270K 3) Dupont Street near Lansdowne...

Hi Casaguy, Thanks so much for your informative comments. It was very helpful indeed.

Does anyone know anything about this building in terms of quality, maintenance fee (a bit on high side - $765 for 940 sq fts unit) and the area? Price is a bit cheaper than the other condos of the same area. Is it because it is a 15 years old building or some other issue? Thanks so much...

Buy vs Rent :o Hi Urban Toronto folks, Below link might give some idea for Buy vs Rent decision. http://www.ginniemae.gov/rent_vs_buy/rent_vs_buy_calc.asp?section=YPTH The hard part of whole calculation is to predict the home value increase rate.

Thanks guys. Yea, I find it a bit expensive too for the unit. Does anyone know $$ per sq ft should include Terrace/Balcony? OR Terrace and Balcony are just there to attract buyers by the builders.

Thanks kdub333. So you are saying all those lofts developments will not blend in much with Q/B neighborhood. Is it the reason you are leaving there? To me, prices are not that cheap without parking in that area.

http://www.leslievillelofts.com/flash.php Dear Urban friends, Do anyone think this is a good area? Is it better than FlatIron in terms of area and price? Thanks again!!

http://www.flatironlofts.ca/flash.php Hey urban friends, Your inputs please for the attached 650 sq fts 1-bed floorplan + 262 sq fts Terrace & Balcony ($292K on 10th floor, parking separate for 27.5K). Super thanks!!

:) Thanks for all the wonderful inputs. It has good ROI indeed. But this is not easy for me to manage a house for rental esp I am not in town. I think condo/loft will have less problem with management office in the building. Do you think?

Is it a good buy? Hey guys, thanks for all your valuable advice!! :):) I will go work it out with my lazy agent now :mad:. Forgot one more thing, do you think I can rent it easily? Will I get decent people from that area?

Dear Urban Friends, Do you think this is a good buy? Or should I wait a bit more? http://www.mls.ca/PropertyDetails.aspx?PropertyID=6961593 Thank you very very much!

Ideally, 2 beds or 1 + Den and 800 to 1000 sq fts. What other better project that worth the money? Thanks

Hello there, I will be moving back to Toronto end of next year and wonder what is the best time to buy. Now or later given the current property market? My budget is 350K max. If now is the time, which one is better investment iLOFTS OR FLATIRON? I like them both but not sure about...
