Did you know? Inaugural Day Edition – President Donald J. Trump and Palace Place

Posted on by

As the world welcomes the 47th President of the United States of America, we take a look at some of the things in common between President Trump and Palace Place.

“It is the outsiders that change the world. Never ever give up.”

How the Louis XV era influences the world’s most prestigious condominium residences

Palace Place has one of the most magnificent lobbies in Toronto. The style is classical, mixing Louis XV and Oriental furnishings. One of the center pieces of the Palace Place lobby is a Louis XV inspired desk.

Do you know what other infamous celebrity uses the exact same desk in their home office in one of New York’s most luxurious condominium residences?

Palace Place Trump

Answer: Donald Trump, Trump Tower, NY

Palace Place Melania Trump

First Lady Melania Trump shows off the Trump home office at Trump Tower, NY.

Whether you love him or hate him, Trump has defined luxury real estate since the 1980s.

Both Trump and Palace Place have recognized the benefit of using classical pieces inspired by the Louis XV era to create an ambience of wealth and refinement.

Modern lobbies are only modern for so long, requiring condominiums to update them frequently at a major expense for the owners. Following a more classical design is timeless, following the highest standards of 5-star luxury.

Trump Tower NYC and Palace Place had used the same kitchen manufacturer too!

Completed in 1984, also at a cost of $200-million, the 58-storey Trump Tower NYC had forever changed the New York City landscape, setting a new standard in high-end luxury and finishes.

In choosing the best kitchen cabinetry for Trump Tower, Trump had selected Cellini Kitchens for the task. At the time, Cellini had defined luxury kitchen cabinetry around the world.

Cellini Kitchens had also been selected by Bramalea Limited for Palace Place. In fact, the founders of Cellini Kitchens have lived at Palace Place ever since, recognizing that in the condominium world Palace Place bears no equal.

The timeless, classical designs of Trump Tower NYC and Palace Place have set the standard for the haute luxury condominium market, a standard that remains unrivalled to this day.

BREAKING NEWS: Palace Place achieves another historic record price!

Posted on by

Palace Place, 1 Palace Pier Court, Suite 3805 Sold by Luke Dalinda

Palace Place Special Announcement: Palace Place, 1 Palace Pier Court, Suite 3805 sold for $860,000

I have written to proudly announce that I have set another historic record price at Palace Place by having just sold Suite 3805 for $860,000 by having represented the sellers and buyers.

The last sale price for a high-floor 05 suite was $620,000.

Earlier, I had set the historic record price at Palace Place by having sold Suite 4001 for $1,980,000, or $700 per square foot, by having represented the seller. This achievement had allowed for a subsequent sale to achieve $831 per square foot!

Where else in Toronto can you get such fit and finish, such a spacious size, and such an enchanting view?

palace place view

This is another career highlight for me at Palace Place, and I thank all those who had helped make it happen.

Sellers!

These marketing efforts have left me with several more buyers looking for large Palace Place suites! In fact, they are ready to pay even more given the recognized value proposition Palace Place represents. If you have a large Palace Place suite, please call me ASAP!

Buyers take note!

In the condo world, newer is not better!
Do the math! This sale price of $576 per square foot is a bargain when new, inferior construction is charging up to $1,000 per square foot. Furthermore, this suite size in the downtown core would easily fetch $2,000 per square foot or more. Why buy the K-car when you can own the Mercedes-Benz?

Buyers want space, and, most importantly, buyers want quality. New construction fails to deliver these two key requirements. Palace Place offers unrivalled construction, spacious floor plans, 5-star amenities and services, and million dollar views that you cannot find in new buildings today!

Come see what Palace Place has to offer today!

BREAKING NEWS: Luke Dalinda achieves the highest price ever achieved in Humber Bay Shores!

Lago, 56 Annie Craig Drive, Suite 4401 Sold by Luke DalindaLago, 56 Annie Craig Drive, Suite 4401 Sold by Luke Dalinda

Special Announcement: Luke Dalinda achieves a historic $837 per square foot for Humber Bay Shores!

I have written to proudly announce that I have set another historic record price in Humber Bay Shores by having just sold Lago, 56 Annie Craig Drive, Suite 4401 for $1,175,000, or $837 per square foot, by having represented the seller. This price was achieved in an intense bidding war!

While this was one of the first assignment resales at Lago, it serves to strengthen the price per square foot for all Humber Bay Shores condos, especially Palace Place.

These exceptional results were not achieved simply due to a hot housing market, but these results had also come from a “setting the bar” pricing strategy, unrivalled marketing, and impactful staging.

Listing on MLS and hoping for the best is futile and will never deliver you the best price. You want a realtor that takes action and does what is needed to achieve your goals and get the deal done!

I have been doing this for 20-years, and my references are a testament to my hard work, dedication, and unrivalled marketing.

Sales and Prices are through the Roof!

Palace Place had experienced low inventory in the first two months of 2017, which had resulted in significant price appreciation and intense bidding wars for the 4 sales that had occurred during this period. With its 2016 average price at only $439 per square foot, astute buyers had recognized the tremendous value in the quality construction, large spaces, and numerous amenities and services that Palace Place offers.

So far this year, I had set further historic record prices at Palace Place by having sold Suite 2204 for $490,000, or 620 per square foot, by having represented the seller, and I had sold Suite 3903 for $1,360,000, or $670 per square foot, by having represented both the sellers and buyers.

I had sold Suite 4001 for $1,980,000, or $700 per square foot, by having represented the seller. This achievement had allowed for a subsequent sale to achieve $831 per square foot!

Palace Place: LANDLORDS MUST READ!

Landlords, did you know that because of the year Palace Place was completed, Palace Place qualifies for an exemption to the Residential Tenancies Act?

What this means is that Palace Place is EXEMPT from the guideline governing yearly rent increases.

So, while other buildings must follow this year’s guideline of 1.5% for 2017, Palace Place landlords can increase their rent by whatever amount they choose, provided that they follow all other requirements as set out in the Act.

If you would like more information, please contact me!

As the longest serving realtor at Palace Place and a fellow owner, I am highly motivated to achieve record prices. My experience and guidance will position your suite for top dollar. My marketing will offer you better exposure and better results. Please give me a call.
