The third and final phase of LakeVu Condos is now under construction on the shores of Little Lake in Barrie’s north end, completing a multi-phase midrise development that has already demonstrated strong absorption and long-term viability. With occupancy set for January 2026, LakeVu3 marks a limited, high-quality addition to a neighbourhood where waterfront land is increasingly difficult to come by, with continued demand from a wide range of end-users. LakeVu3 is a boutique, purpose-built midrise situated within a stable, infrastructure-supported pocket of North Barrie; this area has quietly transitioned into one of the city’s most complete and resilient submarkets. Strategic…
More than a year after being placed under receivership, 248 and 260 High Park Avenue has found a buyer. The site of the High Park Alhambra Church has been under construction since November 2019, with TRAC Developments and Medallion Capital Group planning a four-storey, 70-unit condo through adaptive reuse. But those plans, bogged down by budget overruns, have yet to come to fruition, and now the property’s fate is up to the new owner. Although filings from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice only reveal the buyers as a numbered company known as 1001136742 Ontario Inc., they do indicate that…
Canada’s tightly controlled real estate system just saw its first crack appear. RE/MAX Ontario-Atlantic Canada (RE/MAX) has broken ranks, becoming the first brokerage to settle a class action targeting the industry’s commission rules and board structure. The $7.8-million deal, revealed this morning, comes with a seismic shift—the regional brokerage is ending its mandatory board membership for its agents and franchisees. It’s a direct hit to the MLS-linked commission model that has shaped the market for decades, and a blow to the dominance of CREA and local boards. Canadian Real Estate Faces A Class Action Over Commission-Fixing The class action suit,…

(photo: 2054 Lakeshore Road East, Regan Irish & Associates) A nearly 20,000-square-foot lakefront luxury home with all the trimmings may be what dreams are made of – but a $39-million listing won’t sell itself. Matthew Regan and Alex Irish hold the listing for Ontario’s highest-priced home currently listed on Realtor.ca. 2054 Lakeshore Road East, a 1.6-acre estate in an affluent southeast Oakville neighbourhood, had been on the market for one week as of Monday. While the home itself may be pristine – with its seven bedrooms, “Bellagio”-inspired fountain and waterfall, infinity pool, and manicured grounds – getting it sold…
The Toronto rental market continued to show signs of price moderation in mid-2025, with various sources reporting year-over-year rent declines across unit types. Declines were seen in both purpose-built and condominium rental rates, along with rising vacancies and available listings, particularly in the condo segment. Purpose-Built Rentals Among purpose-built rental buildings completed since 2000, the average asking rent (or “face rent”) was $2,909 in Q2-2025, or $4.06 per square foot. While that represents only a 0.8% decline year-over-year, the apparent stability in pricing is misleading. When adjusted for incentives offered by landlords, which are now present in 65% of surveyed…
Larco Investments is pushing forward with plans to intensify the historic Dominion Public Building on Front Street West with two high-rise towers, according to a revised application submitted to the City of Toronto in mid-June. The existing building is iconic in its own right, spans the block between Bay and Yonge streets, and has occupied that prime stretch of the downtown core since around 1935. According to the resubmission, Larco continues to plan 45- and 49-storey buildings atop the building at 1 Front — the built-form was allowed by the Ontario Land Tribunal in August 2022 — however, now it’s…

Getting your ears pierced at the mall is something of a tween rite of passage, and it’s an experience uniquely associated with Claire’s — but perhaps not for much longer. According to a series of court filings from earlier this month, Claire’s Stores Canada Corp. has applied for creditor’s protection under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA), citing roughly $8 million (CAD) in net losses in the year-to-date period ending on June 30, 2025. The global accessories brand operates 120 retail store locations across Canada, and has 703 active employees in Canada, including 133 full-time workers and 570 part-time workers.…
