The Toronto Real Estate Board has released the sales data for June 2018, and for the first time since March 2017, total home sales were up year-over-year. Though the 8,082 combined sales represent a modest 2.4% annual increase, June sales do reveal a slight shift in buyer behaviour with the purchase of low-rise housing accounting for a larger share of the mix. In fact, total sales of detached (+5.5%), semi-detached (+8.1%), and townhomes (+5.4%) were all up year-over-year, compared to condominium apartments, which fell 5.3% from June 2017.

ROGUE MOVERS
Sound too good to be true? It probably is. |
|
By Gilles Frappier, AMJ Campbell & Canadian Association of Movers (CAM)
Spotting illegitimate movers can be difficult since many have professional websites or a name similar to an established company. However, a few signs that you may be dealing with a rogue moving company include:
1. No physical, local address
2. Refusal to provide a written estimate
3. Requests a cash payment, rather than payment by credit card
4. They use unmarked or generic trucks without the company name
5. Uncertainty of or refusal to provide answers about the claims process
