Freed is offering $400 psf on several units, but they are mostly 2-storey loft style units with uninspiring layouts IMO. Great Gulf's Charlie is starting to get a little more aggressive with buyers. Client of mine just picked up a corner unit with 10' ceilings for about $456 per square foot...

yeah, i went to the sales office a week ago to pick up some info for my clients and sign on the door said they were closed for the christmas season until january. Closing a sales centre for over a month is never a good sign.

There are some signs of cracks in the foundation, but nothing drastic yet. Fly condos was offering a free parking spot on units over 625 sq ft at a broker's event they had this week. Overall though, I haven't seen anything too exciting. These little 1% off and $10,000 cash back type promos...

The $25 Million price tag is apparently 'negotiable', so I'm sure if you wanted a few parking spots thrown in it wouldn't be a big deal.

Thanks for the link to my post about the 1 Bloor Penthouse. I added the floor plans for the penthouse suite and the sub-penthouses. Take a look if you are interested. (not sure if they are somewhere buried in this thread or not.) Cheers UT. Andrew

Great little project from Cresford. Only 205 units. Some great floor plans and those south views will be amazing. Prices from about $500 per foot, but going up to over $600 per foot for the prime south facing units on high floors. Key driver of this one is the great location. Think about all...

Daveto, Sorry, but you are mistaken. There is a perception out there that what you are saying is true, but it is not. Sellers are free to raise and lower their asking prices at will, and they are free to accept or reject any offer, any time. There is no law stating otherwise. A seller can...

Agent's Thoughts (oxy-moron?) Timely discussion. I agree with the general sentiment on this thread that holding off on offers is primarily a tried and true method of creating a bidding war during a seller's market. Anecdotal evidence suggests that this practice has become less and less...

carturo15 and DarnDirtyApe: You're both correct, developers release units in stages, and claims about how much of a project has been sold are always inflated. but... Supply is not the issue here, it is supply and demand at a given price point. Bottom line, if you aren't picky about...

When in doubt, do what Urbandreamer and Gei have suggested, just write down fake info on the registration sheet. Or, if you are working with an agent already, just write down their name and contact info.

The initial VIP broker's release was...insane. They received 900 requests for only 400 units (that they released). Apparently life between the Gardiner and Front st ain't all that bad!

If the 5% down promotion is attractive to you, you might want to consider The Modern on Richmond. They currently have this promotion on 1 bedroom units but only if you are a first time buyer. So this may or may not help you. Pricing is around the low $400s per square foot. With Victory be...

Prices do seem a little on the high side, but it is Tridel, it is a prime location, and the features and amenities are leaning on the high-end side of things. Keeping in mind that CP3: Aura sold for well over $600 per square foot a few months back, these prices are more or less in line with...

That would be the 'tipping point' for this corner for sure if this happened. Then you'd see the floodgates opened and queen east from Sherbourne to Parliament would be redeveloped shortly after.

Yes, you're right. VIP sales are already happening and have been for about 10 days now. Just like 1 Bloor, there may be a little pandemonium and hurt egos/feelings at the agent's only event on the 10th...

I have been enjoying following this discussion so far. The bottom line seems to be that in order to invest in a project like this, you have to have vision to be able to see past what the corner is today and imagine what it could be like in just 3-5 years from now. Wouldn't it be strange...

NXT 2 at Windemere By The Lake by Cresford Developments. VIP sales event coming this week. 1 bedrooms from $160,000. Please contact me for your chance to purchase before the public launch, before the broker's launch. NXT 2 is actually the third phase of this development on this site with...

map from developer's marketing materials Maybe this will help clarify where the project will be located:

Oops. Sorry about that Ed. Feel free to move or delete my post if you want.
