Avoid This #1 Mistake When Buying A Property

Hi There,

I hope you are doing well.

As I am writing this article, I am thinking about to how long it has been since I have been helping people invest in real estate.

I think it has been about 12 years.

Over those years, I have talked to probably thousands of people, and have seen several hundreds of people actually pull the trigger and buy real estate.

I don’t keep the actual number of how many people I have helped, because I am not an egomaniac.  🙂

 

What I do keep track of though is behavioural patterns of people…

On the whole, people generally act in similar ways.

People who take the leap and buy real estate behave in a somewhat similar way to each other.

Also, people who don’t by real estate generally behave in a similar way as well.

This of course is a tremendous generalization I am making, but hear me out.

Over the past serval years, I have noticed that people who DO NOT buy real estate are making one big mistake with their thinking process

The number one underlying mistake that they are making is:

 

Listening To Advice From Uneducated Sources…

Okay… so let me break this down and explain to you exactly what I mean.

  1. People who are interested in buying real estate, but don’t end up buying anything are afraid.
  2. I should also qualify this statement by saying that people who BUY real estate as well are also somewhat fearful.

The one major difference though between the people who buy real estate and those that do not, is that the ones that DO NOT, are tuned into the wrong radio station.  

What I mean by this is that they are listening to the wrong ‘frequency’.  They are listening to the wrong ‘sources’, and they are listening to the wrong ‘people’.

So many times, I have heard people tell me….

“I don’t think buying a condo (or home) for investment is a good idea.  I am going to get calls in the middle of the night from the tenant saying that they have broken the toilet, and that I need to come and fix it.”

Excuse me, WHAT?

Who the hell is telling people this?! (sorry that I swore…I am getting FIRED up.)

I mean, seriously.

You could make hundreds of thousands of dollars owing just one rental property in The Greater Toronto Area, and you wouldn’t do this because someone may call you regarding a broken toilet?

But wait… it gets better.

The people who are instilling fear into these would-be investors, are not people who own rental properties themselves, they are people with absolutely no experience investing in real estate whatsoever!

  • They have never had a tenant before.
  • They have never collected a rent cheque before.
  • They have limited to no experience in the world of real estate investing.
  • They ARE the worst possible person to listen to for advice.   

They are generally people who look at the glass as being “half empty.”

And then… they are projecting their concerns, fears, and worries about owning real estate onto those people that are interested in investing, and that are looking for guidance.

They tell them that now is not a good time to buy real estate, and that they should wait, and wait for the ‘bubble to burst’. 

 

“There Is No Bubble”

Okay… If you are from the Greater Toronto Area, there is something that you should realize sooner rather than later.

THERE.    IS.    NO.   BUBBLE.  

 

People talk circles around me when they try to tell me that there is a Bubble in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) real estate market.

I can list for you major reasons why there is no bubble in the GTA market.  If I did here, this article would become the length of a small book and will probably become a New York Times Best Seller!

Seriously, if you think there is a bubble in the GTA real estate market and you believe this wholeheartedly, we could never be friends.  😉

 

Let’s Re-Cap

Uneducated sources (ie: people), tell aspiring real estate owners (ie: other people interested in buying real estate).  That:

  • There is a real estate bubble that is going to burst
  • They should wait and not buy real estate now
  • If they buy a rental property, they are going to have to deal with tenants who are going to call them in the middle of the night regarding a  toilet that they just broke.  (Apparently this tenant will also want them to come to the rental property in the middle of the night to repair said toilet.)

 

Here Is The Reality…

The reality my friends is that the real estate market in the Greater Toronto area is going up at record levels.

The gains that the market is experiencing now, have never been seen before.

There are a number of factors that are causing this, but to simply put it, it is a ‘supply and demand’ issues.

People are coming from all over the world to live in the great rolex yacht master 44mm 116681 78211 herren silberton weises zifferblatt country of Canada, and a large percentage of these people are settling in the GTA.

Now is the time to buy real estate here.  Not tomorrow.

The next chapter in this real estate saga will be the Chapter that talks about all of the hundreds of thousands of people that are priced out of the market, and who cannot afford buying a property.

That time is coming, and it is coming sooner than I thought it would.

My closing remarks are:

GET INTO THE REAL ESTATE MARKET NOW.

To your success!

How To Make Money Buying Pre-Construction Condos

Posted by neil on February 28, 2017

Hi There,

 

I hope you are doing well.

Today I would like to talk to you about:

Renting VS. Buying A Pre-Construction Condo In Toronto.

 

If you are familiar with what is going on with the real estate market in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), you probably know by now that the market has gone completely Bananas.

There have been massive price increases all over the GTA with all different property types.

Many knowledgable experts say that the real estate panerai mens 44 mm manifattura luminor pam00320 market here is changing forever.  In that, Toronto is finally becoming a true international real estate market, similar to London, and Hong Kong.

With the transformation of the Toronto landscape occurring, this is having a ‘ripple effect’ on the housing prices all over the GTA.

If you own real estate in the greater Toronto area, you probably feel like a champ.  The price gains have been great, and life is good for you I am sure.

If you don’t own any real estate, and you are on the ‘outside looking in’, things may seem a lot more depressing for you.

You might be wondering to yourself how you will ever be able to afford anything in a market like Toronto where the prices keep on going up.

 

The Reality

 

The reality my friends is that for the people who sit back and do nothing, life will get a whole lot more depressing because they are going to get priced out of the market…. and priced out FAST.  

The market is moving so fast, it is leaving people behind in the dust.

This may seem like an overly dramatic statement, but let me qualify it.

As a Real Estate Broker who specializes in pre-construction and residential re-sale all over the GTA, I see first hand how prices keep on going up, and how people sitting on the fence are getting priced out and left behind.

If have the capacity and the finances to get into the real estate market, my Goodness man… DO IT!

Here is a quick and basic math exercise to show you the benefits of taking action and not sitting back.

 

Renting Vs. Buying a Pre-Construction Condo in The Greater Toronto Area

 

Let’s pretend that you are a youngster. (If you are not already one)

Or you can think of a youngster that you know  (your child, neighbour’s kid, nephew/niece) that is eager to buy something in the real estate market in the GTA.

A lot of youngster rent.  We know this.

What we also know is that for many new condo projects in the GTA, approximately a 20% downpayment is required by the builder.  

We also know that depending upon when you buy into one of these projects, the completion date can be up to 4 years into the future.  

So now let’s do a little bit of math… shall we?

 

Time For Some Math…

SCENARIO #1

 

In scenario One, the youngster is renting a one bedroom plus den condo somewhere in the GTA.

Let’s assume that he or she is paying $1850/month.  Sounds fair?  I think so.

Depending upon the location of where they are renting, this price will obviously change.

Let’s go with $1850/month.

Without looking at inflation and rent increases, let’s say that they rented for the next 4 years.

The total amount of money that they would have put towards their rent payments over this time would be:

 

$1850 * 12 months = $22,200

Now multiply $22,200 by 4 years = $88,800.

 

Therefore, over 4 years, $88,800 would have gone towards rent.

 

SCENARIO #2

NOW let’s look at a scenario where at the start of those 4 years, the youngster purchases a pre-construction condo in Toronto instead.

Just so we can keep this math simple ( I am NOT a math whiz), let’s assume that the youngster bought a pre-construction condo for $330,000 somewhere in the GTA.  Does that purchase price look fair to you?  I think it does!

 

So the condo at the time of purchase is $330,000.  

 

Let’s also assume that there is a 4 year window for completion.  Since it is February 2017 at the time of writing this, let’s say the occupancy date is Feb 2021.

 

Unless you are always looking for the sky to fall on you, it is an accurate prediction to say that the real estate market is going to continue to rise in the GTA over these next 4 years.

 

Now here is the $1 billion dollar question……

 

How much will the market go up by?

 

Given that the real estate market (detached homes) in Oakville, Ontario went up by 38.4% year over year from November 2015 to November 2016 , would it be a fair assumption to say that the market will go up 5% per year in the condo market in the GTA?

Is that too high?

You think it is?

Okay, fine.  Let’s be super, ultra conservative and say that the market only goes up 2.5% per year.

This figure may seem ridiculously low to those of you who understand what is truly happening with the real estate market in the GTA.

Okay… let’s assume a 2.5% increase in the market, over the next 4 years.

Okay… here we go.

 

Purchase price of in Feb 2017:   $330,000

Price in Feb 2018 – $330,000 * 2.5% = $338,250

Price in Feb 2019 – $338,250 * 2.5% = $346,706

Price in Feb 2020 – $355,374

Price in Feb 2021 – $364,258

 

So as you can see, by using an abnormally low figure for appreciation at 2.5%, this condo that the youngster purchased, will have gone up $34,258 over 4 years.  

Keeping in mind that experts predict that the market is going to rise a lot higher than this.

Even if we take these low numbers and compare them, this is what we find.

 

Comparison

 

If the youngster buys real estate, he or she would have made $34,258 in equity appreciation over these 4 years.

If he or she had been renting over these vape shops anderson indiana same 4 years, based on our figures, it would have cost them $88,800 over the same 4 years.

There are of course other variables and factors to consider when running these types of numbers, but from a high level you can see that it pays off financially to buy real estate and get into the market now.

If you are interested to get into the market, and don’t know where to start, here are some options for you:

 

Vita On The Lake By Mattamy – This is my favourite pre-construction project currently.  It is being built on the shoreline of Lake Ontario.

 

Time And Space Condominiums – If you buy early here, you are going to make a lot of dough. The project is in the Downtown Toronto Core.

 

Liberty Central By The Lake – Awesome if you want to live in Liberty Village now.
EMPIRE: Rain And Senses – Amazing furniture package of $10,000.  Limited time offer.

 

To Your Success!

Unobstructed Lake Views

Hi There,

I hope all is well on your end.

Vita On The Lake By Mattamy is a new condo project in Toronto that I really like.

I talk about the pre-construction condo in length in my recent blog post here: Vita On The Lake By Mattamy

If you missed my earlier blog post, I recommend that you read it.

To summarize this earlier post for you, I really Vita On The Lake By Mattamy  for a number or reasons.  2 of these reasons are:

  • A) The Location
  • B) The Builder

Let’s talk about the Location first…jf rolex day date rolex calibre 2836 2813 228349wrp mens 12mm white dial

A) Location

If you are not familiar with the Humber Bay in Toronto, you are missing out.  Below is a picture that shows you where Humber Bay is located:

 

That “Blue” you see in the picture is Lake Ontario.  Vita On The Lake is being built on the shoreline of Lake Ontario!!

 

According to Mattamy, this building is now approximately 75% SOLD OUT.

This should not come as a surprise to anyone that is familiar with the Toronto real estate market, any major real estate market for that manner.  If a builder builds condominiums on the shoreline of a water body in a major city, they are obviously going to sell fast!

 

B) The Builder

Now let’s talk about the builder, Mattamy.

Mattamy is a HUGE builder that is extremely reputable.

Buyers are comfortable in dealing with them because they have a proven track record of delivering a superior product.

As a VIP Realtor, I enjoy working with them as well.  They are extremely organized and I like the technology they use in their Presentation Centre for Vita On The Lake.

ie: Through an interactive touch screen TV, you can pick any suite in Vita On The Lake, and you can see a panoramic view of  Lake Ontario and The City of Toronto, from the perspective of the suite that you have just selected.  For example, you can see your viewpoint from a suite on the 5th floor or a suite on the 46th floor!

 

What You Need To Know…

 

Mattamy is doing a final “push” on some of their HIGHER END suites, as well as some of their unsold LOWER priced suites.

Mattamy is still offering incredible builder incentives through VIP Realtors (such as myself).

 

If you don’t know, VIP Realtors (like myself) have special relationships with builders.  We get discounted prices and special builder incentives for clients, that you cannot get by going directly to the builder.  

 

So if you are interested in pursuing a suite in this building, be sure to contact me…

Here is a description directly from Mattamy’s marketing department on the remaining suites that they are selling off at Vita On The Lake:

 

BIG.  BOLD.  BEAUTIFUL.

CORNER SUITES WITH UNOBSTRUCTED VIEWS OF THE LAKE AND WRAP AROUND BALCONIES.  WHO COULD ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE?

These two bedroom plus den super suites featuring oversized bedrooms and closets, are now available on floors 46 through 49 in Vita On The Lake.

The suites are as impressive as the unobstructed south and east views that you’ll enjoy from the Humber Bay shoreline to the downtown skyline.  

At Vita On The Lake you’re close to Pearson Airport and downtown and as close to perfection as lakeside living can be.  

Contact your VIP Realtor and visit the Sales Centre with them today.  

 

 

If you have any questions regarding Vita On The Lake By Mattamy, feel free to email me direct at:

Sincerely,

Neil

Time And Space Condominiums Is Coming Soon

Posted by neil on February 23, 2017
General / No Comments

Hi There,

I hope you are doing well.

Today I have some EXCITING news for you!

I am a VIP Realtor with many of the pre-construction condo builders in the Greater Toronto Area.

As such, I often get access to special DISCOUNTS and builder INCENTIVES whenever a new condo project is being constructed.

This results in TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars made by my clients who purchase in the early stages of the condo development.

I am excited to let you know that a MAJOR development will be coming soon to Downtown Toronto called, “Time and Space Condominiums”.

 

Time and Space Condominiums – FAST FACTS

 

  • Time and Space Condominiums is coming to Front and Sherbourne Streets, and is situated between Toronto’s historic St. Lawrence Market and The Distillery District.   Pemberton Group presents Downtown Toronto’s most-anticipated condominium community – Time and Space.

 

  • Encompassing an entire Toronto city block, Time and Space will transform this historic location and offer residents a vibrant future. Ranked the best city to live in globally according to The Economist, Toronto is Canada’s largest city and the third largest in all of North America. Home to one of the most diverse populations in the world (approximately 2.8 million people), Toronto is a global centre and attraction for business, finance, arts, culture, and sport.

 

  • An estimated 125,000 new residents immigrate to the City of Toronto on an annual basis. In 2016, 80,000 people between the ages of 20 and 40 (from other regions of Ontario) had moved to The City, primarily seeking jh rolex submariner mens 116610 rolex calibre 2836 15mm black tone employment in the City Centre. In 2016, approximately 511,200 jobs were located in Toronto’s Downtown.   85% of all jobs are located within the five Toronto centres (Downtown, North York, Scarborough, Yonge/Eglinton, Etobicoke).

 

  • The office category is Downtown’s largest, accounting for two of every three jobs. The office area south of Front Street has the largest concentration of office employment outside of the Downtown Core and North York Centre. With the concentration of jobs in this area, many professionals opt to live in close proximity to their workplace, ideally within minutes. Available inventory in Toronto currently sits at approximately 11,000 units, representing half of the supply required for the massive migration to the City Centre. Today, the average detached home in the City of Toronto sells for over 1.35 million dollars — unaffordable for most people and families.

 

  • As more and more buyers are priced out of the market for single-family, detached homes in the City of Toronto, buyers are pursuing alternatives in the condo market in the City – either to rent or own. Within a five-minute drive radius from Time and Space, there have been 91 resale and 111 lease transactions within the past two months alone. This bustling activity is a testament to the desirability of the neighbourhood.

 

  • Time and Space is located in one of the trendiest neighbourhoods in the Greater Toronto Area, and is well-positioned to take advantage of the local transportation hub and tourist hot spots. Within minutes’ walk to Union and King Subway Stations, Time and Space boasts an impressive Transit Score of 100/100, Walk score of 99/100, Bike Score of 95/100. Recently, there has been a $1.5 billion investment in Toronto’s Waterfront community.

 

  • This ideal combination of exponential growth in demand, limited supply of condominiums, and a continued development of new infrastructure in the St. Lawrence Market and Distillery areas will help propel a price and rental appreciation for properties in this neighbourhood in the upcoming years. Time and Space is situated in this nucleus, and suite owners in this iconic community will stand to experience and benefit from this intensification.

 

Time and Space Condominiums – Building Features

 

  • 10 Storey Podium

Is EMPIRE Rain & Senses In Oakville A Good Investment?

Posted by neil on February 20, 2017
General / No Comments

Hi There,

 

I hope you are doing well.

I am a Real Estate Broker with RE/MAX in the Greater Toronto Area.

I always get asked by people what type of real estate they should be investing in.

The majority of the people that I talk to are interested in investing in Toronto real estate.

One gentleman that I was speaking to last week was a first time condo buyer in Toronto Canada.

Some people that I speak to are experienced with real estate, while others don’t have too much experience.

The common thread with these people is that they are interested in buying a condo in Toronto Canada, or even a house in The Greater Toronto Area that they would live in or rent out to tenants.

Today I would like to talk to you about:

 

EMPIRE RAIN & SENSES IN OAKVILLE

If you are familiar with the Greater Toronto Area, you know that Oakville is an ‘upscale’ Town located approximately 20 minutes by car west of Toronto.

 

Here is Wikipedia’s definition of Oakvillle:

“Oakville is a suburban town in Southern Ontario, Canada. Located in Halton Region, on Lake Ontario, it is part of the Greater Toronto Area. As of the 2016 census the population was 193,832.”

 

“Rain & Senses” is a pre-construction condo being built by EMPIRE, located in The Town of Oakville.

Some say that EMPIRE is the second largest builder in Ontario, Canada by the number of units sold.

EMPIRE would be second of course to Mattamy.  (Read About: Mattamy’s Vita On The Lake Here)

 

Here is some important information on “Rain & Senses” as well as some of my personal opinions on this new condo project:

 

EMPIRE: Rain & Senses

 

  • SUITES AVAILABLE: 1 Bed, 1 Bed + Den, 2Bed, 2 Bed + Den
  • SQUARE FOOTAGE (RANGE) OF AVAILABLE UNITS: 543 square feet to 1250 square feet
  • PRICE (RANGE) OF AVAILABLE UNITS: $329,990 to $739,990
  • EXPOSURES AVAILABLE: North, North/East, East, South/East, South West, West
  • TOTAL NUMBER OF BUILDINGS: 2
  • TOTAL NUMBER OF FLOORS: 19
  • PARKING: One parking space is included in the purchase price (additional parking available for purchase at $30,000 + HST)   (What is HST?)
  • LOCKER: $4,000 + HST
  • CEILING HEIGHT: 9′ Ceilings
  • MAINTENANCE INCLUDES: Gas, Common Element Expenses & Building Insurance (Hydro and Water is separately metered)
  • OCCUPANCY DATE: June 21st 2017 (First Tentative Occupancy Date)
  • DEPOSIT STRUCTURE: 1st Deposit (with Agreement) is $5,000, 2nd Deposit (30 Days From 1st Deposit) is the Balance to 5%, 3rd Deposit (Due On Occupancy) is 5%.  For a total deposit of 10%.

 

I like this new condo project for a few reasons:

 

A)  There are limited high rise condo buildings in Oakville.  

The Town of Oakville is very particular with regards to dealing with Builders.  As such, the town has not approved many high rise buildings to be built in The Town itself.  As such, there is in my opinion limited inventory in Oakville when it comes to high rise condo buildings versus some of the neighbouring towns and cities close to Oakville.

And and as we know already, where there is limited supply, and if there is demand for that limited supply, this is what pushes real estate prices up.

“Detached homes in The Town of Oakville went up in value 38.4% year over year from November 2015 to November 2016.”  – Source: RE/MAX Aboutowne Realty Corp., Brokerage

With this type of dramatic increase in value, people are naturally going to gravitate towards lower priced real estate, such as new construction condos.

 

B) EMPIRE Is Offering a FREEE $10,000 Furniture Package with the purchase of any suite.

 

Like the saying goes, “All Good Things Come To An End”.

This amazing Free $10,000 Furniture Package Offer will come to an end soon.  It is only for a limited time.

The date in which EMPIRE will no longer be honouring this offer is March 12th 2017.

So if you have any interest in purchasing a unit in this condo project, and if you would like to get this amazing Builder Incentive, you need to act quickly.   You can email me directly at neil@firstrentalproperty.com to find out what the next steps are if you want to purchase a unit.

Sometimes builders offer special DISCOUNTS off of the purchase price or what they call,  “builder INCENTIVES”.  These discounts and incentives are made available through VIP Realtors (like myself).

 

In My Opinion…

In my opinion, the FREE $10,000 Furniture Package that EMPIRE is offering is a very good builder incentive.

EMPIRE is really going above and beyond what other builders offer as their builder incentives, and they are clearly trying to offer something of VALUE to their potential purchasers.

Sometimes builders try to get away with offering potential purchasers with cheap and not too significant incentives.  This is clearly not the case with EMPIRE.  I am impressed with this Incentive that they are offering, and I think more builders should offer great incentives like EMPIRE is demonstrating here.

 

The Bad News…

Rain & Senses is almost SOLD OUT.

EMPIRE is a great builder, and people want to own real estate built by great builders. Not to mention Oakville.  Oakville is a very desirable Town to Invest in…

You will need to move quickly if you want to purchase a unit in this EMPIRE community AND if you want to receive their FREE $10,000 Furniture Package.

 

The Good News…

To get this amazing $10,000 Furniture Package, and to reserve a suite to purchase, email me today at neil@firstrentalproperty.com

Move quickly though because the real estate market in The Greater Toronto Area is insane.

 

Happy Investing!

Neil
