Condo Prices To Rise 40% Says Top Toronto Developer

“My prediction, and I’ve been pretty accurate to date, is we are going to have a 30-40% increase in values of the condo market in downtown Toronto over the next three to four years” says Fenton in a BNN interview he gave last week.

This could mean that the average selling price of a condo, now at $415,316 within the 416 area code, could jump above $580,000 by the end of 2018.

It’s Fentons’ view that developers are no longer able to find new development sites in the city which has drastically affected new condo starts.

“There is probably something like five or six months left of inventory and that will be absorbed very, very quickly,” Fenton said, “it is not the flavour of the month or flavour of the year,” he added. “For the past 10 years the market has been fantastic and it is only going to continue to grow.”

What the future holds only time will tell. The good thing is one of Toronto’s most prominent condo insiders is optimistic about the condo market which means our investments should continue to do well as they have for the past decade.
