This awful weather is getting us depressed. So let's take off (in our minds anyway) to Barcelona, Spain! One of our favorite questions to ask people is, where is the best place they have ever visited? Surprisingly enough or not so surprisingly many people have replied Barcelona. What makes this place so great? Well perhaps it's the people, the food, the culture or maybe its just the amazing...

New condo openings have become a norm here in Toronto but every now and then one or two come along that people have been anxiously waiting for. This is the case for Ten York condos by Tridel. The buzz on this project has gone back to early this year and finally investors and end users can have their chance to buy at this project with VIP prices. This building promises to be truly...
Fabulous is the word of the hour when 88 Scott condos is being discussed. Why do we like 88 Scott condos so much? Well what's not to like, the location is fabulous! You are steps from the Yonge subway line and a short walk from Union Station. You are very close to the financial district which is great for renting out to finance professionals, as well as close to the Eaton Centre...
Well it's getting chilly here in Toronto so I think it's time to drift off and imagine some waterfront living someplace a bit warmer. Let's take our search to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina where the weather is a warm 25 degrees this week. Due to Americas housing crisis, properties can still be bought at great prices at some very prime beach locations. We are looking today at the Dunes...
Monday may I get a modern looking bookshelf? I'm not pretending to be a scholar or anything, but I do enjoy reading. Everything from romance and biography's, to self help and drama. My love of reading has not been easy on the clutter free atmosphere I crave. I've decided it's time to throw out my 1980 flimsy bookshelf and find something that is not only practical, but can hold a...
Who could ask for anything more, is the main line in the jingle for King Blue Condos and we tend to agree. From an investor or end user perspective what more do you want in a condo. The King Blue development in Toronto seems to tick all boxes people usually look for when searching for a downtown condo. It's central and it's accessible situated at the corner of King St and Blue Jays...
It's that time of the week where we sit back and do some wishful thinking about owning a waterfront property. Today we are taking our search to a place that is roughly a 27 hour direct flight away. OK, so it's not the most convenient location to get to, but boy oh boy does it make up for it with its natural beauty! We are talking about Goa, India, and we have come across a...
Welcome to the first edition of Waterfront Wednesdays on Condominiums.ca. Why have we decided to talk about a waterfront property every Wednesday? Well because there is no better way to get over the mid week blahs then looking at a gorgeous waterfront property. To kick off our first waterfront property we are taking our search south south of the border to Los Cabos, Mexico. Los...
Mirvish and Gehry have big plans for the King West area. Talk around the town is that David Mirvish may be aiming his sights too high. At least too high for current infrastructure to support. Architect Frank Gehry, well known for his Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, has a strong history in Toronto and wants the towers to reflect the past, present and future of this city. The designs are unique and...
