A quick update on our latest achievements

This past weekend was the Victoria Day long weekend, and for many people this means that summer has kicked off. While the calendar may not mark the start of summer for another few weeks, there's something celebratory about this time of year. Students are entering their last month of school, family vacations have been booked, and for many people it's finally the time of year to just kick back and relax in the sunshine.

With spring just about behind us, The Stuart Sinclair Team is looking back on what is typically the busiest time for the real estate market and we've even surprised ourselves with just how active the season has been.

Not only have we represented some fantastic listings in the past few months through exceptional marketing, but we've also connected some of our valued buyer clients with their next family homes.


While we're talking about our lastest achievements, it would also be an opportune time to send a sincere thank you to all of our valued sellers, buyers, colleagues, family and friends. Whether you've purchased or sold a home in the past few months, or have just needed information about the latest property to hit the market in your neighbourhood, we're grateful that you've chosen us to represent you.

If you're planning on making a move this summer and need advice on where to start, we'd be happy to provide any assistance that you may need. With a personal team backing us up, plus specialized and unique buyer and seller services, we've got the tools and experience to ensure your real estate goals are successfully reached.

Feel free to contact us at any time, and be sure to check back on our blog for regular updates on new hot properties, news and trends in residential real estate, and exciting events happening in and around our communities.

Have a fantastic summer!

Caledon East appeals to growing families


Caledon East is a highly sought after area to live, with increasing appeal for families who are outgrowing their current homes, or are tired of renting. Located close to fantastic parks, amenities, green space and lakes, this community is blossoming. Another factor contributing to what makes this superb pocket a fantastic place to live, is it’s proximity to services like the Caledon East Community Complex, Soccer Complex, and Community Park, all of which are excellent places for young families who like to get involved and stay active.

With the spring/ summer real estate market well under way, the activity in Caledon, especially Caledon East, has been remarkable. This particular home at 11 Borland Crescent has received enormous attention…


This 4 year old, 4 bedroom detached home is situated on a premium ravine lot and offers excellent curb appeal courtesy of its brick exterior and stone walkway.

The home is tastefully decorated and comprises over 3000 square feet of well laid out living space. Boasting an open concept family room, main floor office, 9 foot ceilings and dark hardwood floors, this home is classic, yet modern. It is truly an entertainer’s delight with a spacious kitchen complete with butler’s pantry plus a bright breakfast area that opens up onto the large 16 x 16 foot deck and private fully fenced backyard. Adding to this home’s function is a mudroom for storing all your seasonal clothing, which also provides access to the property’s attached 2-car garage.

On the home’s second floor you will find 4 spacious bedrooms, each with it’s own bathroom and large closet. Laundry is also on this level, adding convenience to the home’s existing appeal. The home’s basement is partially framed and fully insulated… a blank canvas that can be completed to suit the new owner’s tastes. To learn more about this fantastic family investment, click here.

If you or someone you know is looking for more space in a family friendly neighbourhood to raise your children outside of the city, then this home may be the perfect fit. Let me know if you have any questions or would like to arrange a personal tour. I’d be happy to help in any way I can.


Cheers!

MARKET WATCH:

May 3, 2013- The average selling price for April 2013 transactions was $526,335 – up by two per cent in comparison to April 2012. The MLS® HPI Composite Benchmark Price was up by 2.9 per cent.

“The condominium apartment segment in the City of Toronto was a key driver of price growth in April, with both the average selling price and the MLS HPI apartment index up on a year-over-year basis. The improved condo sales picture, with Toronto sales down by only one per cent compared to last year, suggests that interest in condo ownership may be improving," said Jason Mercer, TREB's Senior Manager of Market Analysis.
