3 bedroom, 2 bathroom bungalow - $1,118,800 Vs.... →
Thanks to “S” for sending in this feature sheet, letting us know that this bungalow with no photos, a crap description other than “no survey available” (awesome), was on the market for sale at $895,000 and sold for $1,118,800.
People say we’re a world class city and that’s why real estate is so expensive here. That makes sense(?). So why don’t I compare...

2 bedroom, 2 bathroom townhouse on the beach in Toronto. $879,000 plus $592.90 maintenance. And that’s just builder’s estimated maintenance. A brief example; I bought a pre-construction condo years ago and maintenance on our unit was to be something like $350 a month. Once it was built and registered...

No, you’re not buying that tree up there. Actually, I guess you are buying it, if you buy this property - but you’re probably going to pay 5k+ to kill the tree and have it removed before you pay another two million dollars to build your “dream home”.
This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom “ranch...

3 Bedroom, 2 bathroom bungalow in Etobicoke for $888,000.00. This one kills me, because it’s actually renovated, in good condition, there are pictures, a good description, etc…and something I would totally buy. But it just goes to show that unless a first time buyer has $266,000.00 down and $4,000.00 a...

http://www.realtor.ca/propertyDetails.aspx?propertyId=11607830&PidKey=-35249699
3 Bedroom 3 bathroom nice semi detached home, not being sold for land. Most likely perfect for the first time buyer… if the first time buyer wants to buy a $1.1 million dollar semi, has $233,980.00 down and makes $18,000.00 a month.
That’s right… CMHC tells me you need to be grossing $18,000.00 a month and...

Frank Lloyd Wright’s, Brandes House

Well, here’s another Frank Lloyd Wright house for over $100,000.00 less than a Toronto bungalow that doesn’t even have pictures.
Frank Lloyd Wright’s famous Brandes House built in 1952, architecturally friggin’ gorgeous. I can’t even describe how...

2 bedroom 2 bathroom condo for basically a million dollars. That’s awesome. Building offers “alfresco dining”. I’m googling what that means… K, Google says it means eating outside. Sigh.
Maintenance is a mere $786.00 a month… what does that mean, you ask? It means you need $184,000.00...

While we’re on the subject (see yesterday’s post), John Lautner’s famous Polin House is also up for sale. How much is it for sale for? Is it more than this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house in Thornhill? http://www.realtor.ca/propertyDetails.aspx?propertyId=11524726&PidKey=46743859
Well…

Remember this one that I posted a few days ago? It was a Willowdale Bungalow that was the same price as that Hollywood Hills mansion? Refresh your memory: http://fmlistings.tumblr.com/post/18613873904/4-bedroom-2-bathroom-bungalow-1-499-000-00

This 2 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom bungalow at Bayview and Sheppard? (“Near Earl Haig”. I love all the North York listings now because they ALL say “Close to Earl Haig”. First of all, there are signs everywhere in that area...

Here’s a wonderful 3 bedroom 3 bathroom bungalow starter home at Yonge and HWY 7 (so, NOT EVEN IN TORONTO) “Perfect to build your dream home” apparently for $1,798,000.00.

So, here’s the top of a house for sale at almost a million dollars with maintenance fees at $650.00 a month. That’s awesome. Being sold as “A Slice of Paris”.

The photos above are of a $1,499,000.00 2 bathroom bungalow in North York, plus a $50,000.00 land transfer tax (because it’s Toronto they double the tax). It’s funny because that house is $250,000.00 more than this house in The Hollywood Hills, right near the Sunset Strip (hoping you know what...

GAH! I wanted to post one this morning, a 2+2 bungalow for $1,195,000.00 where the listing just said “Crown moulding and over 100+ pot lights” THEY COUNTED THE POT LIGHTS!!!! But it’s gone now, I guess it sold. As it should. So we’ll settle for this one today:

2 Bedroom, 2 bathroom bungalow for the obviously fair price of $1,498,000.00 It’s in “Toronto’s most prestige(sic) location” though. Yonge and Sheppard is the new black. Comes with a stove, can’t go wrong.
Here is a house in Malibu, California (which actually is a prestigIOUS...

OMG seriously??? I don’t even know where this is. How dare they list this super tiny no photos house in Scarborough for over 800k?!
It’s “immaculate” though, as verified by all the amazing photos of the interior of the property. The listing states this is a “custom built home in...
