Jarrod,
How important/relevant is a parking space when trying to sell/lease a unit in a transit friendly area such as Yonge&Eglinton?
Thanks…Ron
Hi Ron,
Great Question ~ it really depends on the building. The answer for the most part would be “No” It’s not entirely relevant to have a parking spot.
Resale condos in the area don’t take any longer to sell without a parking spot. The average sale time for condos is roughly the same with or with out the parking spot. Many buildings have parking spots for rent, and as you mentioned….Yonge and Eglinton has the convenience of great transit.
If you’re in the market to buy a new condo – the cost of the parking space will retain its value. Things change when you’re dealing with a higher end building and pricey condo ~ a buyer/renter will expect a parking spot when forking out the big bucks. When buying a resale condo it’s very important to look at the history of the building as well. If every condo sold over the last year has a parking space and the one you’re looking to buy doesn’t have one. Then it’s very relevant.
Hope this helps, Thanks for the question.
Hi Jarrod
I read your article about MPAC appeals with great interest. Have you had any experience in helping your clients with this or having done this process yourself? I have heard numerous horror stories of people trying to fight MPAC assessments, only to have their properties assessed even higher. It sounds like this legislation may help.
I am looking at trying to get our property taxes down and I am hoping this avenue will help. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Hi David,
It will be interesting to see how this new legislation helps the process. At present there really isn’t much advice I can give you on the matter though. I’ve never personally disputed my property taxes. Family members and past clients have had success and failure with the process. With my limited experience in the matter – I’d say 50 percent of these individuals were able to decrease their taxes……Although these were unique properties, not the typical cookie cutter home.

Hi Jarrod,
Can you please tell me which condos are available for rent?
I’m looking for a two bedroom for 1800. (High Floor with a view.) Thanks.

You neglected to mention which area of town your considering. I will email you to narrow down a possible condo search with a high floor.
Hey Jarrod,

Hi Jarrod,
I’m looking for a parking spot to rent from Mon-Fri in the Yonge and Eglinton area. Wondering if you know of any?
Thank you
Hi Paul,
At the moment the cheapest rental for condos within the area is $1600 for a 1 bedroom. You might want to try some of the buildings on Erskine, Roehampton, Broadway.
Hi Leonora,
Try some of the rental buildings on Erskine ~ i’ve heard of a couple people lucking out and getting a deal there. Rio Can always has spots, although it’s about $200 per month.
Hi Jarrod,
Is there any 2 bedrooms and den left at 83 Redpath and what is the price?
Thanks,
Diana
There are no more 2+1 Bedroom condos available at 83 Redpath.
Do you have any interest in other buildings.
tahnks, how about just 2 bedroom?
Hi Diana,
I’ve called in to double check what is available.
I tried emailing you directly although your address seems to be incorrect.
Contact me at jararmstrong@trebnet.com for further info. I can post the info later or try and get a hold of through the above mentioned email.
Thanks
Jarrod
Hi Diana,
There are a couple 2 bedroom condos left at 83 redpath. 902 sq ft priced in the mid 400,000′s. Parking is not included = $34000.
Email me or call to discuss the details.

Would like a list of ALL power of sale triplexes regularly sent to my email. price range is anywhere from $200-$300. if possible thank you.
Do you have any connections for rentals in the Yonge Sheppard area?
Looking for a 1 bedroom or 1 bedroom + den for March 1 or later.
Hi Jarrod,
I was wondering if the Minto Midtown condos are pet friendly, I have a toy yorkie.
Karen
Hi Jarrod,
We’re looking to rent a condo in the midtown area (Yonge and Eg), 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom and 2 parking spaces. Rent rage is $1800 to $2400. Must be a newish model (i.e. no old appliances) and the more spacious the better
Any insights?
You will have no problems finding a nice and newer 2 bedroom condo for rent within your budget. However it will be impossible to find a condo offering 2 parking spaces. Last year there were a total of 3 condos offering 2 parking spaces….all were rented around the $3000 per month range.
Your best bet will be the North and South Tower at Minto…..2181 and 2191 Yonge street for new and spacious condos.
Check your email…I have included everthing available.
Hi Jarrod,
What a nice web site you run for properties along yonge & elington area. I m looking for a good buy of condos & townhomes around this area from Finch to Davisville or Dupont, any power of sales one? Please let me know. thanks
Alan
looking for power of sales properties along yonge/eglinton to Davisville /Dupont mainly condos & townhses
Do you have any good condo unit: 2 beds, 2 baths, 1 parking, 1 locker located on 10th or higher floor in the Minto Condo (South/North)? I already searched Toronto MLS.
Cantact me at email soonest.
Hi Jarod what do you think of 5460 yonge st the Dynasty towers? good bldg
Hi Joe,
There is nothing wrong with the building. Just not the best option compared to whats available. Most condos i view within the building need up dates due to the age. There are also no balconies….But you will find great prices and well sized units.
Hi Jarrod,
Do you know what’s the price per sq. ft for a penthouse in Yonge/Eglinton? Are the condos selling quickly these days?
Sharon
Hi Sharon,
The market has come full circle over the past year. It’s now back to a seller’s market with many properties selling over asking price. Average days on the market for a well priced condo within the Yonge and Eglinton area is down to about 7 to 10 days.
Regarding your question about the price per square foot of penthouse condos within the area. It’s a fairly broad question and tough to answer. The number changes between buildings. The Minto towers will command a much higher price per sq foot than 212 Eglinton. Do you have a building in mind that I can give you an accurate answer for?
Hi Jarrod,
Do you know what’s the price per sq. ft for a condo in 88 Broadway, Yonge/Eglinton? Are the condos selling quickly these days?
krishna
It seems you showed some interest in 88 Broadway.
Regarding the cost per square foot. This answer will vary depending on the size of the condo you have an interest in. The cost per square foot is higher for 1 bedroom condos vs 2 bedroom condos. How many bedrooms do you require? This will make your questions easier to answer.
Regarding the market: You asked if condos are selling quickly? Depends – some well priced condos are moving very quickly, although it’s turning into a buyer’s market. This has just come about in the last few weeks. There is finally a higher inventory of condos on the market with a bit less demand….perfect for buyers, not so much for sellers.
Call me with any questions you may have.
