Condo Chicks comments on the increasing popularity of condos over houses in Canadian cities.

Toronto, Canada – March 15, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —

Condo Chicks from Stomp Realty Inc., Brokerage (www.CondoChicks.com), a team of realtors behind some of Toronto’s most prestigious condominium sales, is commenting on a new report about trends among first-time buyers in Toronto real estate.

According to a recent report in The Globe and Mail, the prices of low-rise houses in Vancouver and Toronto have soared to all-time highs. However, the condo market is now considered more affordable than ever before. With stricter federal mortgage rules, first-time buyers have been transitioning from buying homes to buying condos. (Source: McMahon, T., “As detached home prices soar, first-time buyers turn to condos,” The Globe and Mail web site, February 29, 2016; http://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/economy/housing/house-prices-soar-but-condos-becoming-more-affordable/article28957142/.)

“Condos are more popular than ever before, especially with first-time buyers,” says Erica Smith, broker of record and founder of Condo Chicks. “Buying a house used to be the first step for young couples and families, but recently, buying a condo has begun to be the ‘new normal.’”

The increase in the popularity of condos is being attributed to the high number of condo developments being built in Toronto and Vancouver. High rates of condo construction have helped keep prices low compared to houses.

“Toronto really is one of the prime real estate destinations in North America, as is Vancouver,” says Smith. “The reason so many condos are being constructed is because there is just that much demand. At this point, there are condos in nearly every neighbourhood in Toronto.”

In fact, not only is buying a condo cheaper than buying a house, but statistics show that condos are becoming more affordable than they have been in the past. The amount of pre-tax income required for a condo mortgage payment has declined by seven percent since last year, meaning condo prices are actually more affordable than before.

“Condos used to be a luxury option,” notes Smith. “Now, you’re seeing condos being bought by everyone from singles and young couples to seniors who are downsizing. In this real estate market, it’s rare for property to become more affordable compared to people’s income, so there really hasn’t been a better time to buy a condo.”

The affordability of condos flies in the face of the standard view that housing is more expensive than ever in the Canadian market. In fact, in some cities, the average condo mortgage payment is lower than the average monthly rent.

“There hasn’t been a better time to buy a condo,” says Smith. “There’s been a bit of a transition now, with houses becoming the premium option in the Toronto market. They can still be a great choice for some buyers, but they’re sometimes not ideal for first-time buyers who want to step into the market.”

Smith says that first-time buyers should carefully consider their income, the value of property, and the real estate market before committing to any deals.

“There are plenty of options for buyers on any budget,” she says. “If you work with a real estate professional and do your research, you can find the right property that works for you.”

Bayview Village Tennis Camp comments on Kate Middleton’s stunning weight loss from daily workouts and exercise.

Toronto, Canada – March 15, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —

Bayview Village Tennis Camp (www.BayviewVillageTennisCamp.ca), the Greater Toronto Area’s leading provider of first-class tennis camps and clinics for players of all ages and skill levels, is commenting on Kate Middleton’s stunning weight loss resulting from tennis and other workouts.

Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, stunned people with her fit physique when she participated in a tennis workshop for kids. Middleton, who is Britain’s appointed Wimbledon Patron, has lost a huge amount of weight after giving birth less than one year ago. (Source: Chang, S., “Kate Middleton Flaunts Weight Loss During Tennis Workout: Low Carb Diet and Beauty Secrets,” Celebrity Health & Fitness, February 24, 2016; http://www.celebrityhealthfitness.com/34249/kate-middleton-flaunts-weight-loss-during-tennis-workout-low-carb-diet-and-beauty-tips/.)

“Exercise is the oldest and surest way to lose weight and stay healthy,” says Peter Nielson, director of Bayview Village Tennis Camp. “A lot of people think that you have to do extreme diets or go to the gym to lose weight, but it can be as simple as taking up a sport you like and playing it regularly.”

Middleton does daily workouts involving yoga, weight lifting, and other cardio exercises. However, she is also an expert tennis player and regularly plays the game throughout the year.

“Tennis is really one of the best sports for physical fitness,” says Nielson. “It involves a lot of running and sudden movements; you need a lot of stamina and agility. It’s no surprise that she could lose this much weight playing tennis, especially if she’s pairing that with other workouts and exercises.”

Middleton has also been one of the most notable fans of the tennis community. Along with appearing at the tennis workshop where she helped children learning the sport, Middleton is a Wimbledon Patron and promotes both the tournament and the sport throughout Britain.

“Kate is doing a lot for tennis,” says Nielson. “She’s been promoting the game particularly to kids, and she really understands how much youth can benefit from it. For kids, tennis is a lot of fun, and if you get them into the game, they can really benefit from it in terms of their health.”

In the past, tennis has been regarded as having a high participation cost. However, the tennis workshop is an example of a push that has been made towards making tennis more accessible to kids from all backgrounds.

“Tennis is really more available than it ever has been before,” notes Nielson. “A lot of school gym classes now include tennis. There are also summer camps that can teach kids for very affordable rates. There’s more opportunity, which is why it’s great that Kate is helping encourage kids to take up the sport.”

While Middleton exercises regularly, she also uses juicing, ketogenic diets, and a variety of anti-ageing cosmetics to keep herself looking young. However, Nielson says this shouldn’t take away from her positive message about tennis and other sports.

“People can get discouraged when they see celebrities staying fit, but you don’t need a lot of money to be in shape,” says Nielson. “Tennis, yoga, and other activities like these are the best way to improve your health. Anyone can do them—young or old. There’s no reason not to stay in shape and have fun doing it too.”
Bayview Village Tennis Camp is the top tennis camp in the GTA. Its Tennis Canada-certified instructors work to teach kids not only how to have fun with tennis, but also how to play smartly and safely.

Landscape Structures & Designs Inc. informs GTA residents of new spring trends for upgrading outdoor spaces and yards.

Toronto, Canada – March 15, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —

Landscape Structures & Designs Inc. (www.LandscapeStructures.ca), an award-winning landscaping design and service company based in the GTA, is urging residents to start thinking ahead on how to improve their outdoor spaces now that spring is finally approaching.

Trends in landscaping and outdoor upgrades have already begun to appear and it is important that homeowners start early so they can get maximum enjoyment out of their revitalized spaces. (“Top Trends for Upgrading Your Outdoor Space,” PR Newswire, February 22, 2016; http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/top-trends-for-upgrading-your-outdoor-space-300223834.html.)

“Some of these developments are technology-based,” explains Sue Shorey, owner of Landscape Structures & Designs Inc. “Things like all-weather materials and furnishings can now let you design an outdoor space much like any other room in the home. Decks and patios are starting to be seen with features like upholstered and integrated seats, ornamental post caps and railings, and more.”

As backyard cooking gets back into swing, outdoor spaces are also becoming increasingly functional as full-fledged kitchens.

“The barbeque is still popular, obviously,” notes Shorey. “But it is getting a lot more company than it used to. All-weather refrigerators and cabinet storage are just some of the ways the kitchen is being brought outside. There are also cooking islands and pizza ovens now.”

Technology, of course, is getting its integration outside as well. Home automation ranging from smartphone-controlled lights and music to motorized screens that can be used as televisions mean that soon a roof might be the only real difference between a living room and a patio.

“Since this is Canada, some accounting is also being made for when the temperature starts to drop,” Shorey adds. “Candles, torches, LED lights, heating lamps, and even fire places are all becoming more common. Warming features are seeing much more use because people don’t want the weather to dictate when they can or can’t use their decks.”

Landscape Structures & Designs, Inc. is an award-winning landscaping design and service company that has been operating in Ontario for over 20 years. By holding itself to the highest industry standards and using the best equipment and qualified professionals, the company works to provide and promote eco-friendly projects to improve the lives of homeowners across the province.
