Here is tip for you in few weeks there is going to be a VIP launch for 42 Charles St. E. development. Cresford Development will be launching a 64 floor condo at this address, currently its the home of the YMCA. This is your ticket to get in on the action before it is open the public. Buy your suite and watch your money grow as an investor or owner.

Charles St. is just south of Bloor and Yonge, this street has been going through major changes with condo development such as X, X2, CASA and CHaz on Charles. You cannot beat the location a hair south of Yorkville and in the absolute heart of Toronto.

If you were fortunate enough to have purchase a unit last summer at the Chaz VIP event your investment would be up by more than 19%.

This event is scheduled for early March 2011 drop me note if you would like to be on my VIP list. This is the first VIP event for 42 Charles St. price starts at 200K.

Father-daughter day

Malcolm Johnston, Trenton Real Estate: Real Estate Agent in Trenton, ON

Spring must be in the air. Yesterday my daughter and I decided that it was time to do some shopping. Summer is fast approaching and we both could use some new additions to our wardrobes (being a 16 year old girl, she could always use new additions to her wardrobe).

We hopped in the car and headed down to Orfus road in Toronto, where many of the stores that you will find in the malls have their factory outlet. Sarah can spend hours wandering through these stores (well actually the majority of time is spent in the line-up waiting to pay). I am not a big fan of shopping, but I am a big fan of spending time with Sarah, just her and I. While I had to act the part of the grumpy dad (to speed things along) I was enjoying every minute of it.

One of the things that I do miss about living in a bigger city is that there is a real lack of shopping variety in smaller towns. Today we took advantage of being in Toronto, and we stocked up on healthy items at Noah's on Bloor. I love this store, and try to get to it at least once a month. Just walking inside makes me feel healthier.

The big payoff came at supper time though. We walked into Fresh on Bloor and had a vegetarian meal. Those of you in Toronto who enjoy vegetarian cooking should check out Fresh (they have 3 locations). It's reasonably priced, has a huge menu, and is not in the least pretentious.

Sarah was not expecting me to snap a picture, but I'm a master at the sureptitious Iphone camera snapping. I caught her off-guard while she was enjoying her salad. D-a-a-a-a-d.

It was the best day I had in a long time.

The Bank of England has cut its overnight lending rate by half point to 1.5%, the lowest since the central bank was founded in 1694.

Many economists believe that the Bank of England will cut rates below 1.0% by the second quarter. The central bank reduced the interest rate by 1.5 percentage points in November and by 1 percentage point in December.
