LOL at that massive chimney spewing smoke directly at the balcony! This is like a £200,000 apartment in the UK. You guys are getting absolutely rekt over there.
That forgettable 'penthouse' is soooo small... the only person that would buy that, is someone laundering money, (and as it's Toronto, well we all know there are plenty of people doing just that for decades and collecting rent with all of the empty units in those downtown towers.)
What's even the point in lying about this 1.4 million cad is like £1 million - £1 million in the financial district in London gets you like a 1 bedroom, definitely not two stories, no balcony and probably appliances have this size because the kitchens there are shit - Canada's housing market is shit, but lets keep it real. PS. At least we can afford heating :)
Nope u got Homeless and drunk people crawling around in the area. 9:18 as soon as you open that door you’ll see Shangrila Hotel/Condo AND HOMELESS 😂which of course is not mention in this video 😂. I walk pass the area day and night for over 10 years to work to know how bad it is
as local 675 member that builds these buildings for the last 15 yrs, (moved from east coast), i would say very much yes it's worth it, with 200k+ reno!!!! as you panned the views i could see quite a few i've worked in as i was trying to see if i worked in the one you were showcasing!! i have not, btw the balcony is 7'x 40ish as i couldn't count the length. those slabs are 2'x2', cheers!!
Thank you for building the awesome condos I see around town! I agree this place with a renovation will be a showstopper. In Shangri La across the street similar condos sell for $1.8M
@@thetorontolife very nice, i've been in the penthouses in Aura, boarded some units, and installed cornerbeads in some. i've also been in some worth 20 million+, for deficiencies, i get to see what goes into building these condos, very interesting career!!
For 1.4M you can two 3 bed houses new construction in Texas! Where it’s sunny, clean, less taxes, way more paying jobs, much more investment opportunities… and the list goes on
Hey I'm a huge fan of Texas, and Toronto was once similarly priced. As Toronto became an interesting place to live and more people starting moving here, pricing shot up. I here Texas is pretty interesting nowadays, and maybe in 10 years they won't be so differently priced
In Texas your kids get shot in school, you get shot in the streets and faint from the unbarable heat, plus healthcare in Texas is expensive AF and TRASH you have to sell your house to afford a treatment, thats a no
The terrace is nice but honestly, 1.4M seems overpriced. There's units with beautiful views of Lake Ontario, newly renovated, for that price and under.
The kitchen cabinets are rental grade quality 😂 they could have at least done the kitchen and the island as a minimum, plus full size appliances in such a tiny kitchen eats away all the counter space
That forgettable 'penthouse' is soooo small... the only person that would buy that, is someone laundering money, (and as it's Toronto, well we all know there are plenty of people doing just that for decades and collecting rent with all of the empty units in those downtown towers.)
The view and windows/high ceilings beautiful , but the crappy induction/electric stove is a let down. For this price youd expect a gas range with pot filler.
small kitchen, cheap finishings...ie; doors which are big time Home Depot....and all rooms with nice large pillars to break up the space....a no for me...
😂😂 they really do love scamming you Canadians, wtf is this?? 1.4 mill smh. Get a nice modern mansion in Dallas for 800k usd that would be 1mill save that 400k. How much more stupid can we get seriously.
Love the layout etc, but it’s definitely dated & needs a gut job to make it shine like a beautiful jewel - probably $100-200k reno depending on the connections the new owner has.
The market for condos like this is still soft, plus this one has been on the market for a while and is a power of sale. I would estimate it could go as low as $1.25M or $1.3M @@americanmade-316
not worth it at all!!! 250-350k more you can get in the shangri-la more square footage better building better layout 10X better ammenities. condo fees would be a couple hundred more but heating/cooling/water/cable/internet included. the condo fees at 1600sq ft prolly 0.87cents a foot equals 1350 aprx without utilities..
Thanks for sharing. Shangri-La is an excellent condo, with awesome amenities. A condo of comparative size would be close to $1.9M in the Shang. But hey, you get what you pay for.
Anyone who thinks that is nice is definitely on the spectrum. Toronto as a city sucks, that building sucks and that unit sucks. I’ve seen welfare housing projects nicer than that.

This would be 200,000 in London? Because that is what would be comparable to Toronto

It’s just steam from a steam power plant.
U PAY FOR THE AWESOME 🇨🇦 VIEWS AND NOT THE SIZE. I ❤ IT AT NIGHTS 🌃 CITY SKYLINE ✨
Thank you for sharing!
fuck that chimney with the smoke coming out daily LOL washroom door can barely open lmao
yeah its trash
When the wind changes direction, what are you breathing from that chimney/smokestack ?
great video! thanks for the info!
Thank you for sharing 🙏👌🤙
Couldn’t help but notice the smoke stack across the way. Was it from the hotel laundry?
For 1.4M$ I expect a real power room with real size washing dryer machines, and not tiny superposed ones in a tiny closet.
This is our Toronto reality :)
Nice video. Was this unit sold?
Yes the property is now sold firm, it went very close to asking price.

How many days on market
It's been listed on and off since November 2023
It will be listed for 10 years at this ridiculous price.

1.4 mil. That's almost 2mil in Canada. LOL.
45 degress celsius? hell nah

With $1.4 million I'll retire in a warm country. This is ridiculous!
Thanks for sharing. This property actually sold last week, very close to asking price.
One more to go bankrupt pretty soon
Ignorance is to pay $1400 for an apartment in a city full of drug addicts and homeless people. High class city my ass.
How much are the condo fees and what do they include?
The maintenance fees are $1,606/month and they include : heat, AC, building insurance, common elements, and 2 parking spots.
@@thetorontolife lmfao
Mortgage plus condo fees, you're looking for about over $8k a month to live in a cold place... 🤣🤣🤣
@@Igor-oo1tv you could probably buy a villa in italy for that price
The condo fees cost more than my mortgage lmao
Bedrooms are small too., No place for king-size beds., both bedrooms can barely fits Queen size bed with 2 night-stand.
Thanks for sharing
u need somethng more expensive then or an older building
In Toronto smoke stacks are chic.
What is the address ?
A shoebox
Does not matter how e pensive it is , its hard to run away from the roaches. In condos.
Who wants to live in violent Toronto and pay that money for going to live in hell.
you sound $tupid.
1.4M USD or CAD?
CAD
@@thetorontolife great thanks!
The property is being sold as a power of sale, so it will probably sell for less than $1.4M @@junaidjainoodeen8527

What’s the address of this building?
126 Simcoe Street
I like your presentation
Thanks amigo, I'm a fan of yours

Very little Counter Space.

does it come with a parking spot on site?
Yes, it actually comes with 2 parking spots
Love all the windows and the view at night must be amazing.

600 sf Terrance ? 🤷♂️ I saw a baloney you showed “Approx 6’W X 40’L” that’s 240sf Terrance ? What gives??!!!

I dont know how I would feel about seeing that smoke everyday. I think I'd pass tbh
Over priced as always Toronto
That's great value certainly compared to Vancouver. 1.4 is s great price, I should move to TO. Good video!
Thank you for sharing! I love Vancouver, will be there this summer, if you ever decided to move to Toronto, I'm your guy!
The view and windows/high ceilings beautiful , but the crappy induction/electric stove is a let down. For this price youd expect a gas range with pot filler.

I hear there are tons of rich iranian folks owning expensive properteis in there, is that true or as always my fellow people bluffing? 😅
I love my Iranian peoples, but I'm not sure about this statement, honestly I only know 2 owners in this building and they are not Iranian
Anyone paying 1.4m even if you got money is a bobo….
Kitchen is crap, no living space, long narrow useless design. Not worth 1.4 student rental at best.
That chimney .... is that the incinerator of the hospital ?
That would be the Pearl Street Energy Centre located at 123 Simcoe St.
The wood floor is curling up and ruins the look. Replace the floor and it's a lovely unit.
Thanks for sharing!
$1.4 mil for that view and size? This building won't be available for long.
Thanks for sharing! I agree.
Exactly.... that size and view for only 1.4 mill is a bargain.....
small kitchen, cheap finishings...ie; doors which are big time Home Depot....and all rooms with nice large pillars to break up the space....a no for me...
Why did you not stage this condo? You are trying to sell a premium property!!
Hello, this condo is not my listing, so that is not my decision to make. The listing agent granted me permission to film of course.
Open these empty units to the homeless
will be worth 1.6 in a few months
Thanks for sharing! Given the interest rate reductions that are about to come, I would agree
With a view of the lake obstructed? Thanks but NO THANKS, not unless at least 400K gets knocked off the price. Nope.
I bought in harbourfront 2 bedroom penthouse gutted it fixed it up my place is worth more than this unfortunately it’s the going rate

I didn’t notice the square footage it’s a good deal

That is way to expensive for the functionality and size, you can definitely build a much larger house for 1.4m.
Love the layout etc, but it’s definitely dated & needs a gut job to make it shine like a beautiful jewel - probably $100-200k reno depending on the connections the new owner has.
Well, it's being offered as a power of sale right now so perhaps they will entertain a discounted offer price.
