There are still plenty of summer days ahead, whether you feel like getting out and exploring the city or making a few changes closer to home. This month, there are some fun ways to see Toronto from a different perspective and a very timely excuse for something cold and slushy.

Toronto’s housing market tightened in July, with the number of new listings falling significantly compared with the same month last year. At the same time, home sales increased from June, an unusual shift for the middle of summer. With fewer homes coming to market and buyer activity holding up, buyers may start to face a bit more competition, while prices could begin to level out.

If you're considering a move or just curious about what your home is worth, please give me a call!
