An interesting conundrum....

Our Vacancy Rate is 1%

With all the talk about Toronto Condo Bubbles, Housing Bubbles and all the informed conversations online about HOW the Real Estate and condo market in TO will collapse this year; I offer this simple answer.

Toronto has a vacancy factor of less than 1% Yes 1%

This article from Forbes magazine posts in very graphic fashion the vacancy factors in major US cities that have exceeded 14% and actually have broken the figures down separately for homes for sale. This is further impacted by the homes repossessed under foreclosure but not yet released for sale by the bank.

It was during my conversation with Tamara Dorris, a Sacramento Real Estate personality, a guest appearance on her BLOG TALK radio show that some misconceptions came to light.

Blog Talk Radio Interview with Tamara Dorris

Power of Sale properties in Toronto are actually far and few between; any new construction crane that you see is prepaid by 15% on each unit and a sales rate of 75 to 80% before they even start digging the foundation. Investors, business and First time buyers are buying because they can rent with a (1% vacancy factor) market rent averaging $1,500 for a one bed $2,000 for a two bedroom.

Toronto is in a Sellers market with a 32 day supply of homes. There is a lack of homes available for sale in the under 750 thousand range where most heeled couples are purchasing their first or second home. Toronto sold 90K homes in one year at an annual increase of about 5% in value.

This increase in value has continued unabated since 1995.

Could it stop Tomorrow - Sure.... Do I think it will... No. Why?

Toronto's average price increases have been 2 - 3% over the rate of inflation.

Toronto has and is becoming a Service Information Technology based business Center. Universities in Toronto are rated world class. Markham is the new home for many companies. Mississauga's growth and success has been the attracting Fortune 500 companies. Kitchener Waterloo is undergoing a revival in the inner city with the addition of Google and RIM Blackberry.
