6 h. ago Toronto house with visible holes in roof still expected to fetch $700,000

A Toronto home at 37 Allister Ave. has been in rough shape since 2018, when it sold for $777,000 — sight basically unseen.Back then, potential buyers weren't even allowed inside. The listing stated that viewings were limited to "walking the lot" with the agent, and that's probably what the buyers did since they never managed to do anything with the derelict three-bedroom, three-bathroom home.Eventually, they gave up on the house and sold it at a loss in 2024 for $750,000.The front of the house. Now, a year later, the property is in even worse condition. The roof is collapsing, gaping holes expose the interior to the elements, windows are boarded up with plywood, and the backyard has been swallowed by weeds.It's more haunted house than fixer-upper at this point.But it's back on the market—this time asking just $688,000, which is a full 30 per cent less than last month's hopeful $999,990 price tag. Clearly, that d...

After years of construction, delays, and anticipation, Toronto's Finch West Light Rail Transit (LRT) line (also known as Line 6) is finally entering its home stretch, although one key detail, namely its opening date, remains a mystery. The 11-kilometre, 18-stop transit line, which will run on Finch from Keele Street to Highway 27 and Humber College's north campus, has been technically complete since September 2024, however, riders are still anxiously waiting for service to begin nearly a year later.With construction beginning in 2019, the Finch West LRT managed to avoid the same level of delay that has plagued its notorious sibling, the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, which is still not operating nearly 14 years after breaking ground. Back in September, the provincial government announced that the Finch West LRT's stops and infrastructure were complete, and that the final touches, including signal activation, pedestrian access, and station finishing, were all prog...
