I’ve had one foot out the door of my condo for, oh, I’d say about two years now.
Combine my extreme obsessive compulsive disorder with my thoughts and opinions as a Realtor, and result is that I simply cannot find the “perfect” condo for myself.

This week, an article appeared on Eye Weekly’s online newspaper called “Ghetto Fabulous.” It was a follow-up to last week’s cover story in which I was quoted as saying that CityPlace will be a “ghetto” in twenty years.

I was on my way to Jason George for brunch last Sunday morning when I saw a “City of Toronto” truck driving around and picking up all the real estate street-signs!
The back of the truck had about 15-20 signs for pre-construction projects such as Market Wharf, Post House, Trinity Lofts, and others.
