North York condo blog
Posts on condo apartments and condo townhouses in North York: what they cost, where they are and the rules that apply. Every post lists the sources behind its figures.
This blog covers condo apartments and condo townhouses for sale in North York, the former city that is now part of the City of Toronto. Posts fall into seven groups: buying, selling, neighbourhoods, the market, pre-construction, investing and costs and taxes. Each one answers a single question and names the government, TRREB or agency page its figures come from.
Market posts quote TRREB figures by district or community with the period and the number of sales, because TRREB publishes no North York total. Posts on taxes, rebates and mortgage rules are general information. Confirm the details for your own purchase or sale with a lawyer, an accountant or a mortgage professional.
Where a post touches a rule that has a deadline or a dollar limit, it gives the date the source was read. Rules and limits change, so check the linked source for the current figure. Posts describe homes, transit and services in an area and leave the choice of where to live to you.
For a fuller treatment of a topic, start with the North York condo guides. For figures, see North York condo prices. For areas, see the North York condo neighbourhoods page. Current listings are on North York condos for sale.
