Buying a Home in North York

North York, Toronto, Canada is a highly diverse multi-cultural metropolis where 57% of the inhabitants were not born in Canada. There are many different neighbourhoods in North York. North York around Yonge Street and Victoria Park Avenue has one of the largest “China Towns” in the world and Chinese cultural groups make up 22% of the population.

It stands to reason that if you are seeking to live in North York you need to choose an area that you can both afford and be appropriate to your lifestyle.  Just as there are many Toronto Homes to choose from, North York has many options, some priced a little more reasonably than Toronto.

North York, Toronto has a mixture of condos and family homes, city dwellings and suburb life. Maybe quiet homes or homes close to the major leisure activities such as that offered by Toronto’s Science Center are more your choice. If you are after the café society life then maybe a condo near Yonge Street which will also place you a few steps or subway stops from the third largest theatre district in the world.

Whichever kind of house you prefer your first step is to review your budget and ensure that you can obtain a mortgage. A Toronto mortgage broker will be able to assist you with finding a suitable mortgage.

Next stop is to take a quick tour of the Canadian MLS. This is where most of the real estate for sale in Canada is listed and Toronto has its own version which can be found on the web sites of most good Toronto Realtors or by a quick search engine search.

The MLS will provide you with a current list of available property within your budget and search parameters. Next step is to find a Toronto based Realtor. If you have a particular North York neighbourhood in mind, then one based in that area is better, but all Realtors can help you buy your new home in Toronto.

Your Toronto based Realtor can provide you with a list of homes for sale in North York, that you can afford as well as meet your family’s needs. A good Realtor can also tell you about the different neighbourhoods and make suggestions as where you might wish to look at property.

Once you have a short list of properties to view, your Realtor can take make arrangements for your viewing and take you to each of your homes.
