Where is the market?
To date in 2016, there had been 372 sales of condominium units that had been sold for under $450,000 in the Humber Bay Shores area.

During this time, there had only been 140 sales of condominium units that had been sold for above the $450,000 price point. Of that amount, there had only been 41 sales of condominium units that had been sold for between $500,000 and $600,000. Of those, only 3 sales were from Palace Place, 4 sales were from Palace Pier, 2 sales were from Newport Beach, and 1 sale was from Ocean Club.

Finally, since January 2016, there had only been 43 sales of condominium units that had been sold for above $700,000. Of those, 4 sales were from Palace Place, 4 sales were from Palace Pier, 1 sale was from Newport Beach, and 3 sales were from Ocean Club.

Palace Place

Palace Place had continued to experience low inventory, which had resulted in continued bidding wars for several suites. Total sales had decreased from 15 sales in the first eight months of 2015 to 13 sales in the first eight months of 2016.

The record sales during this time were my sales of Suite 2906 for $930,000, Suite 2910 for $547,000, and Suite 3102 for $585,000.

There is a lot of demand for Palace Place right now, so if you would like to set the next record price, please give me a call.

Use a Realtor that knows and cares!

Unfortunately, we are still seeing owners list their suites without any proper education to the market value. Recently, a 1,388 square foot suite was listed for $459,000. The realtor had advertised the square footage incorrectly as 1,279 square feet. Worse, the last sale was $565,000 and current listings were asking $689,000. The property was listed on a summer long-weekend before the market could take note, as multiple offers would have driven the price to its true value.

I see costly mistakes such as these far too often.

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.

Dear Luke:

Jose and I would like to thank you for all your work on selling our unit.

JUST SOLD: Palace Place, Suite 3102 – Record Price!

Palace Place Suite 2302 Knight

Palace Place 1 palace pier court Suite 3102 Sold by Luke Dalinda

Special Announcement: Palace Place, 1 Palace Pier Court, Suite 3102 sold for $585,000!

I have written to proudly announce that I have set yet another record price at Palace Place by having just sold Suite 3102 for $585,000, or $493 per square foot, by having represented the seller.

This is a great accomplishment for standard 02 suites at Palace Place. It clearly demonstrates the value of a realtor who knows his product, has key connections, and can walk his talk.

Buyers take note! In the condo world, newer is not better!

Do the math! This sale price of $493 per square foot is a bargain when new, inferior construction is charging $700 to $1,000 per square foot. 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!

Did you know? (Fact #2) What do Canada’s Wonderland and Palace Place have in common?

What do Canada’s Wonderland and Palace Place have in common?

Wonder Mountain (Copyright Luke Dalinda)

5.0.2

With the summer season upon us, many Torontonians make an annual pilgrimage to Canada’s greatest theme park, Canada’s Wonderland. What many people do not know is that Palace Place has a unique connection to Canada’s Wonderland.

So, what do these two Toronto landmarks have in common?

They had both been built by Bramalea Limited, which at the time was Canada’s biggest commercial and residential builder.

wonder mountain construction

In 1979, Taft Broadcasting, headed by the legendary Dudley Taft Sr., had formed a partnership with Bramalea’s parent company, Trizec Properties Inc., which had been led by the Bronfman family, to build Canada’s most ambitious theme park ever.

Coming in at a cost of $122-million, Canada’s Wonderland had opened its doors on May 23, 1981, and it has since become one of Canada’s greatest theme parks.

So, which landmark cost more, Wonderland or Palace Place?

Answer: Palace Place

From 1988 to 1993, Palace Place had been built at a cost of $200-million by Bramalea Limited. The sheer cost at that time was a testament to Palace Place’s unrivalled construction. Bramalea had a very special vision for Palace Place that, to this day, has yet to be duplicated or equalled.

Did you know? Interesting facts about Palace Place that you might not have known. Fact #1

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 centerpieces 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

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.

These neighborhoods boast some of Toronto’s best shopping and dining destinations, the best schools in Toronto West, and quick travel times to the downtown core and the airport, via car or public transit.
