Real Estate Topic: Working with Lawyer on New condo purchase

Real Estate Topic: Working with Lawyer on New condo purchase


Once you have signed your deal, the Condominium Act provides that you have ten days from the latter of either the date you receive the disclosure statement or the date you receive an offer executed by the builder, to rescind the deal. This gives you an opportunity to see your lawyer, get suggestions, changes and explanations and then within the ten days return to the sales office and negotiate for those important items that are open.

Your lawyer will explain to you that in most offers, the following are standard:

  • Measurements of space are made from the exterior of outside walls and half-way through the demising walls, so your condo square footage is not usable area but total area
  • The builder can substitute materials of equal or better quality
  • Bulkheads can appear where you least expect them
  • Layouts can vary
  • The builder can add, remove or rent units
  • You may end up with a reverse floor plan
  • Colour, textures and materials may vary

Real Estate Newsletter - June 2010

Real Estate News:

June 3, 2010 -- Greater Toronto REALTORS® reported 9,470 sales through the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in May, representing a one per cent dip from May 2009. In comparison to previous years, this was the third highest May sales result on record.

“The pace of transactions slowed in May following record-setting sales in February, March and April,” said Toronto Real Estate Board President Tom Lebour. “Buyers who otherwise would have been purchasing a home in May moved more quickly this year, likely to get ahead of mortgage rate hikes.”

New listings were up 38 per cent annually to 18,940. The average price for May transactions was $446,593 – up 13 per cent compared to the average of $395,609 recorded in May 2009.

“The gap between listings and sales has widened, which means there is more choice for buyers,” said Jason Mercer, TREB’s Senior Manager of Market Analysis. “The annual rate of price growth will slow in the second half of 2010, from the current double digit pace into the single digits.”

Median Price

In May, the median price was $376,750, from the $337,000 recorded during May of 2009.
