Recently, Ripley Entertainment has taken on Toronto as its new venture building a 14,000 square meter aquarium. Situated at the foot of the city’s infamous CN Tower and nearby entertainment district, the aquarium is likely to attract a guaranteed audience due to Toronto’s already populated waterfront. Being the first branded attraction since the Hockey Hall of Fame installation in 1993, the aquarium will be built in two phases and estimated to be complete in the next three years. Alongside the new aquarium, Ripley also plans on building a 4,353 square meter restaurant and retail complex located on the CN Tower’s west side.

The  new aquarium will bring new tourists and more residents to the city. Also with the help of a new restaurant and retail complex close to the aquarium, the city will be able to provide more jobs contributing to Toronto’s overall economy; and with Toronto being a gateway to the rest of Canada, the city’s tourism estimates that at least 50 million people will stop in the province’s capital by 2020. Tourism Toronto is working long hours to ensure that the popular tourist destinations are posted all over newspapers, the Internet, and on television and radio. In order to accommodate the two million tourists shuffling in and out of Toronto each year, the new aquarium will be more appealing to visit and easily accessible to visitors because of its convenient location. David Whitaker, President and CEO of Tourism Toronto, believes that building a new aquarium will give the city a more diversified look and enhance Toronto’s reputation as a more desirable destination to visit.

As far as real estate is concerned, Toronto’s housing economy is showing significant progress compare to other major cities outside of Canada. Having a new, major attraction built at the city’s center will cause nothing but a boom in the housing district since it will appeal to other Canadians looking to migrate and tap into buyers from the international market. Home buyers nowadays are also looking into buying something more practical when it comes to size and location. Torontonians are becoming more environmentally conscious too, trading in their suburban mansions for a more modest quality of life. Having a smaller home also requires less maintenance, splits bills in half and eliminates unneeded possessions; maximizing the potential of a comfortable living space reduces waste, saves energy and gives individuals more time to explore everything the city of Toronto has to offer.

1. Air-conditioners
An AC unit should be the correct size for your house or condo. A 5,000 BU is enough to cool an average 2 bedroom home. For maximum efficiency, the unit should be on the north-facing wall. Clean filters at least once a month. Switch off the unit if you plan on leaving your home for more than an hour.

2. Roof
Heat transfers more easily through some materials more than others. Insulate the attic space with thicker, good quality material. A 12-inch tile can cut the cost of cooling your Toronto home or condo by up to 10 percent.

3. Windows
Use dark curtains, mini-blinds, or shades to block solar heat especially on windows facing south. Awnings or old-fashioned window shutters are also effective. In a condo or house, an inexpensive heat-reflecting film is the best external option. But be careful. A film-covered window will also block out the sun and cool your internal temperature in winter.

4. Fans
Ceiling fans can cool your room by up to 7 degrees. It costs about $10 monthly to run  the fan 12 hours a day. Portable fans can  be used anywhere.

5. Internal appliances
A lot of heat in your home or condo is generated from inside. Computers, TV sets, washing machines, and dishwashers produce heat. Do laundry at night time and switch off electric appliances that are not being used. For cooking, use the BBQ whenever you can.

6. Outside the home or condo
Bright, light colours on a roof or walls always deflect heat better than dark. Planting the right trees or shrubs can reduce heat by up to 5 degrees. When shopping for a new Toronto house or condo, ask your Toronto Realtor about properties in well-planted neighbourhoods to get the greenest, ‘coolest’ option.

From recession to explosion, the Toronto real estate market has bounced back significantly.  A solid blend of historically low interest rates, discounted home prices, and a healthy Canadian banking system has helped consumer confidence emerge from the depths of a gloomy recession.  Such confidence was not only demonstrated in the Toronto real estate market, but in many consumer and retail markets as well.

One of the driving forces in the housing industry happens to be first-time home buyers.  The new era of affordability has created a spike in the demand of modest bungalows, semi-detached homes and condominiums.
So how can these first-time buyers entering the Toronto real estate market affect the entire residential market?  Why are some luxury homes in the multi-million dollar range selling quicker, and even getting multiple offers?

It’s like a domino effect.  These new hopeful homeowners who are looking to enter into the Toronto real estate market for the first time, will in fact, be purchasing someone else’s home.  The current owners, will more often than not, want to upgrade to a bigger, more expensive house.  The owners of those homes might want to step up as well, and so on and so forth.

With such a sudden shift in demand, the supply side has struggled to follow suit, therefore creating the frenzy that the Toronto real estate market has experienced since the second quarter of 2009.
