TREB May Numbers Show a Soft Month for Toronto Real Estate Market
Welcome to my June newsletter!
The real estate market has been in the news lately! Some attribute the changing market to measures introduced in April, some say it's also due to the mortgage changes brought in last fall. Either way, more listings on the market means more choice for buyers while sellers still enjoy quick sales and solid prices.
The weather is also heating up, meaning summer will get here eventually. If you love having a garden but don't love gardening, check out the piece from HGTV showcasing some low-maintenance plants. And don't miss my two newest listings!
If you are considering making a move this year, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
