Recent data shows Toronto housing starts dipped 10% year-over-year\u2014a clear signal that construction has slowed across our city\u2019s urban core. Right now, there are 37 building permits issued for 6,600 new condo units, but construction hasn\u2019t broken ground on these just yet.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what I\u2019m watching: many of these projects probably secured their pre-sales before today\u2019s slower sales pace, so there\u2019s still a chance they\u2019ll move forward. It\u2019s worth remembering that housing start figures often lag behind what\u2019s actually happening, because big Toronto projects go through lengthy planning, pre-sale, and permit stages before shovels hit the ground.<\/p>\n<p>So, while the official numbers may look low, they don\u2019t always capture the current pulse of the market. Some of those permitted condos could still be about to start as the pipeline advances. My commitment has always been to help clients navigate these shifts with clarity and strategy\u2014making sure you get the best value and timing, whether you\u2019re buying or selling. That\u2019s what my proven home selling system is all about: putting more money in your pocket, in less time, and with less stress.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As someone who\u2019s been guiding families through Toronto\u2019s ever-changing housing market for years, I know how important it is to track the real story behind the numbers.
