So this place sold last year for around $485K (house behind the tree). I was kinda kicking myself for not looking into it as it was a bit of a diamond in the rough from what I saw from the outside.

It is back on the market now almost a year to the date: http://beta.realtor.ca/propertyDetails.aspx?PropertyId=14481391

If you go back a couple of days on TOSOLD, there's a custom home in Mississauga that was originally listed for $1.3MM, and sold for $860k or so.

THE BUBBLE HAS BURST!

lots of the mil+ sit for a while and are relisted a lot. At least around here. Ive noticed a good handful in particular that have been on the market for well over a year now.

no cmhc and need dat 20% for 1mil and up. Thats quite a bit more cash needed to close the deal compared to 999999 and down.


Lots of articles about this. High end and low end have floundered for a while. While the middle has frothed to new heights. ready to tumble ;\)

You think it's going to tumble though? I could see it cooling off, but nothing like what's happened south of the border.

why not?
why are we "special"?

obviously you cant say exactly what will happen and some peopele think itll just keep going up forever(lulz), but this stuff generally returns to the mean.


With normal properties sitting right near 1 mil(in toronto), they are beyond affordable for most. It wont go above 1 mil imo because of the need for the extra scrilla/no cmhc.

Of course there are the "this is the new normal" and houses in toronto are "luxury" for only those that can afford it...anything is possible. I am of the opinion that isnt likely to be the case...but you never know.

pretty much anyone with a solid and worthy opinion on this stuff, worldwide, think we are absolutely retarded.


Doesnt mean you shouldnt own. But it damn well better not be your only asset/savings vehicle. or gnsp.

Why not? How about our lending practices? You realize why the housing market crashed in the US right?

Your example of the 1 million dollar house is perfect. But unless you can afford that, you aren't getting approved for a mortage. Quite a bit different between that an people making 30k in the US getting approved for 600k mortgages. I'm sure it won't be the locals buying up those million dollar houses, but there's no lack of offshore $$$ to keep the prices in place.
