I have listed a new property at 3110 115 Blue Jays Way in Toronto. See details here

A smart entry point into downtown Toronto ownership. This fully furnished bachelor unit is ready to move into or lease out immediately - no renovation budget, no furniture shopping, no delay between closing and cash flow. For first-time buyers, it's a low-maintenance way to get a foothold in one of the city's most in-demand rental pockets. For investors, it's a plug-and-play addition to a portfolio, with strong tenant demand driven by proximity to the Financial District, major employers, and both universities.The unit itself is efficient by design - every square foot works, with a layout that avoids wasted space. A standout feature not found in other units in the building: two custom-built closets, added to maximize storage in a way most bachelor layouts simply don't offer. A locker adds even more storage, a rare perk at this price point and one that matters for buyers or tenants without room to spare in-suite. Building amenities cover the essentials tenants and owners actually use: 24-hour concierge, fitness centre with cardio and weight lifting rooms, party room, a huge dining/meeting table, outdoor terrace with BBQs, billiards table and lounge. The location does a lot of the heavy lifting too, with the PATH, transit, Rogers Centre, and the King West/Entertainment District all within a short walk. Whether the plan is to live in it, rent it, or both over time, this is a low-friction way to own in the core - with storage solutions that set it apart from every comparable unit in the building.

Move-in ready and never lived in, this 1+den at 609 Sherbourne puts the entire city within reach while giving you a calm, sun-filled space to come home to. 625 square feet, 9-foot ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows with south exposure and open city views / CN Tower and lake views make the suite feel larger and brighter than the numbers suggest. The den flows naturally from the main living space - an open, flexible zone that works beautifully as a home office, reading corner, or dining area without chopping up the suite. The kitchen keeps things sleek with integrated appliances, quartz counters, and clever built-in cabinet organizers, while the bathroom hides extra storage behind a mirrored medicine cabinet. Private balcony extends your living space outdoors. Downstairs, Burke delivers amenities that actually get used: 24-hour concierge, fitness centre and yoga studio, a co-working hub with bookable meeting rooms, café lounge, theatre, games and music rooms, and BBQ terraces for summer nights in. The location does the rest - Sherbourne Station is literally next door, with Yorkville, Bloor-Yonge, U of T, TMU, the Eaton Centre, and the DVP all minutes away. Your commute, your campus, your Friday night: all of it, effortless.A rare chance to be the very first to live here.
