Looking for a home?

Finding a house is easy. Choosing well takes a plan.

We’ll help you think beyond the listing: what the home is worth, what to look into, how the neighbourhood fits and how the numbers work before you make a commitment.

Thinking about selling?

Start with the facts

Before you make a move, know what you’re working with.

What could your home realistically sell for? What might the next move cost? How much equity would remain? Clear numbers make it easier to compare your options before you decide.

Your next chapter

Maybe you don’t need more house. You need the right house.

Less maintenance, fewer stairs, more freedom—or simply a home that fits life as it is now. Right-sizing starts with options and a clear look at the numbers. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer.

ANSWERS

Questions we’re asked first

What does “right-sizing” actually mean?

Right-sizing means matching your home to the life you are actually living now, rather than assuming the answer is bigger or smaller. For some Etobicoke households that means selling a four-bedroom house and buying a two-bedroom condo. For others it means the opposite — leaving a Mimico condo for a semi with a yard. The process is the same in both directions: establish what your current home is worth, establish what the next one costs, then sequence the two transactions so you are never exposed.

Should I sell my Etobicoke home before I buy the next one?

Which Etobicoke neighbourhoods are best for downsizing?

The strongest downsizer fits are the transit-oriented condo nodes and the larger older suites: Islington-City Centre West around Kipling Station, the West Mall and East Mall towers where suites are unusually large, the Bloor-corridor condo cluster in Markland Wood, and the Lake Shore buildings in Mimico and Humber Bay Shores. If you want to stay in a house, Alderwood and Richview hold the borough’s most attainable bungalow stock.

Do I pay tax on the equity when I sell my house in Ontario?

If the property was your principal residence for every year you owned it, the capital gain is exempt from tax — though the CRA still requires you to report the sale on Schedule 3 and Form T2091(IND) (Canada Revenue Agency). If part of the home was rented out, or you owned a cottage over the same years, only part of the gain may be exempt. Confirm your situation with an accountant — this is not tax advice.
