Condominium apartment sales in the W06 west district that represents Humber Bay Shores had decreased to 43 sales in August 2022 from 46 sales in July 2022.

The August 2022 average price of $743,707 had increased by 3.2% over the August 2021 average price of $720,707.

Where is the market in Humber Bay Shores?

To date in 2022, there had been 307 sales of condominium units that had been sold for under $750,000 in the Humber Bay Shores area.

It has been suggested that a further rate increase will be announced on September 7. While such an increase will certainly dampen market activity for the fall, other economic factors, like employment and immigration, remain strong. As we head into 2023, this should bode well for setting off a chain reaction of increased activity.

Those that price their condos in accordance with these market dynamics and in a reasonable price progression will have no trouble selling. Those that base their pricing outside of market justification will continue to build up their “Days on the Market”, which will only amplify the doom and gloom reported by the media.

Why professional photography is so important

Cutting corners in marketing your condo will only cost you!

It is concerning to see realtors use do-it-yourself iPhone photos to showcase multi-million dollar listings.

Why would you want to work with a realtor looking to save money on photography when you are trying to get your condo sold?

Not only will professional photography get your home sold faster, but it will also get you a higher price – and ultimately a higher fee for the realtor too!

Realtors cutting corners on your biggest investment is the ultimate red flag warning. Do not let it happen to you!

Here is an example of a professional photo versus an iPhone photo:

As the #1 top selling realtor at Palace Place and in Humber Bay Shores, I will stop at nothing to get you the best price as quickly as possible, and I believe in doing everything possible to help you get every extra dollar possible.

How do I know that my photos are better?

In addition to my awards and consistent sales records, my photos are among the most copied photos on MLS. We literally employ a legal team to send cease and desist notices to other realtors that think no one will notice.

See for yourself – Some samples of our masterful & published photography:

  • 80 Marine Parade Drive Penthouse 01
  • Palace Place 1 Palace Pier Court Suite 4206
  • Palace Place 1 Palace Pier Court Suite 3602
