it's not exactly a lot in rural Mississauga/Pickering/Markham or whatever the fuck suburbs CSi prefer to live.
that's a very prime location, and frankly a pretty decent price for the lot.
dump 5-700k to build, and you'll have a nice $1.5M home, par for the course.
Desireable? Did you miss this part:
"It maintains its characteristic tilt because it lies on top of the Garrison Creek, which the city converted into a sewer system around the turn of the nineteenth century."
Screw that! No matter how good the location is.

do you know how much a tiny condo by the slaughter house that reeks up the entire hood goes for?
that shit don't matter.
i don't know how sewer systems work, but i have been up by that area many times and it doesn't smell like raw sewage. i would assume it's probably a closed/sealed system that close to a residential area.
and yes. desirable. Subway line. 15-20 mins walk to Yorkville, another 5 to Yonge & Bloor. 15 mins to U of T/Casa Loma etc.

and unlike the states in 2007/8, the banks are not giving out mortgages to min. wage workers. houses are not leveraged to the tits, and risky mortgages are not being packaged and sold as creditworthy products.
True. But ridiculous prices for shitholes was the norm just before the market crashed in the states too. Since we're seeing that now, what's next?
If this were a normal market, that slanted house wouldn't see any buyers at all no matter how low the price is. That's what i was trying to point out.

and what i'm trying to point out is some people buy shitty houses for the lot, not the actual structure on it. i know someone who was looking at $2.7M property for a teardown because it's in a very desirable area.
