Your Etobicoke Real Estate Market Housing Update

Posted on May 12, 2020 by Milana Cizmar

Welcome to your Etobicoke real estate market housing update. We are in the midst of our 9th week of isolation here in Etobicoke.  For those of you that are at home, are you getting the hang of it yet? I know it has turned a lot of people’s lives upside down and for others it’s business as usual if they were already working from home. 

For me working from home, surprisingly I have found my home to be a tad bit smaller than I realized throughout this quarantine? Have you found that? I’ll tell you one thing though, I am so very grateful to have a home as my refuge that I am healthy and safe in right now! 

If you haven’t heard by now, after a stellar 1st Quarter of real estate activity in the GTA that suggested a record breaking spring market was in store. The Coronavirus pandemic and resulting government health and safety measures abruptly changed everything! As expected, social distancing orders have quieted the market.
