When most people go looking to buy a condo, they think that the only ones they have to choose from are the ones on the MLS listings in Toronto. However, savvy buyers know that it is usually only resale condos that actually make it onto this list. The new developments are all bought up before the building is even finished. If you want to get in on the action, you need to attach yourself to a realtor in order to hear the news about new ones. Here are some of the developments you might hear about.
Fuse Condos and Lofts
These days, a loft for sale in Toronto sells almost as quickly as a condo, and Neudorfer Corporation knows this well. Their latest development, which is on the corner of Landsdowne Avenue and Dupont Street in the West End of Toronto, contains both. It will be a modern glass and metal tower rising from an authentic warehouse which has been converted into living space. The combination represents Toronto's past and future combined and is great for artists and business people alike.
32 Camden
Not everyone wants to buy Toronto condos for sale in the same identical tower that has been cropping up all over Toronto, so the Sorbara Group has done something different at 32 Camden. At only 10 storeys tall, it's positively cozy, while still being sleek and modern. Located in the Spadina neighborhood, this development of 87 condos has trendy, modern interiors that are sure to be the envy of all your friends and neighbors if you're lucky enough to get a place in the building.
Hive Lofts
The fusion of modern and artistic is a popular theme these days, as is the desire to get away from concrete canyon living. Hive Lofts was designed by Teeple architects to be in this vein. If you're an accountant in Toronto you can easily afford a unit in this 6-storey building as the prices start in the mid $200,000s. The neighborhood is Queensway and the architecture is trendy, with interiors that any designer would be proud to feature in his or her magazine.
Epic Condos
The mantra among developers seems to be go big or go home, which Plazacorp and Urbancorp, the developers of Epic, have taken to heart. Their latest venture is no converted Liberty Village dentist's office. It's a huge complex in the Queen West Area that is built out almost as much as it's built up. Prices are expected to start at just under $200,000.
