Welcome to my newsletter for October!
 
Toronto Life has published a series of pieces on where you can find the best things for your home - below I have a link to the city's best bathroom items, from copper sinks to bath mats. You'll also find a link to some photos of the renovations to the Broadview Hotel, 10 things to do this fall in the city and the Post's picks for this season's plays - a little off the beaten track - no singing children or Mormons here.
 
The Federal government recently announced changes to mortgage regulations. At first glance, this will affect first-time buyers and those who have a down payment of less than 20%, but other changes being rolled out will likely mean higher interest rates. Below you'll find a good article from the Globe outlining the changes.
 
If you are considering making a move this year, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
