TORONTO’S HOUSING TEMPERATURE CONTINUES TO RISE
The dominant theme in Toronto's resale market place is the lack of available inventory. Not only a phenomenon in Toronto, this lack of inventory is pervasive in Chestnut Park’s other markets including Muskoka, Collingwood and Prince Edward County. Heading into September, Toronto had only 1.4 months of inventory available, a record low, It's making it extremely difficult for buyers and putting increased pressure on prices. The Toronto and Southern Ontario market is also becoming concerned about government intervention in the real estate market. The recently implemented Foreign Investor Tax in British Columbia has brought the Vancouver market to a screeching halt. Given the importance of the housing market to the overall economy, any tax legislation that attempts to curtail it, should be considered extensively and carefully before implementation.

L A N G M A I D ' S I S L A N D , O F F E R E D AT $ 1 4 , 9 5 0 , 0 0 0 Langmaid’s Island The largest remaining privately owned undeveloped island in Muskoka features • 140 acres • 2 natural sandy beaches with southern exposure • 5 kilometers of shoreline • granite jumping rocks The sheer size, beauty and privacy offered by Langmaid’s Island is breathtaking. Langmaid’s is an island property on Lake of Bays in the District of Muskoka, Ontario that has been owned by the same family since the late 1800’s. This island has been cared for and preserved in its natural state with honour and respect for the stewardship of the land. With 140 acres and almost 5 kilometres of shoreline this property is unlike any other that has recently been offered for sale and will surely be the last of its kind.
Langmaid’s Island is located off the mainland just north of the town of Baysville on Lake of Bays. Three large hills reach to an elevation of 50 meters above the water and give an unparalleled opportunity for 360 degree views around the lake. A forest of hemlock, white pine and cedar trees populate the undeveloped rocky shoreline and a small marshland occupies a protected bay along the northern shore at the narrowest point of the island. But perhaps the most spectacular features of Langmaid’s Island are the two natural sandy beaches that stretch along the southern shoreline. These beaches are a rare feature in a cottage country property in Muskoka. A smooth shelving of pink granite rock highlights the southern edge with large jumping rocks adding to the mix. Also included in this package is smaller Pancake (Seagull) Island and a 1/2 acre mainland lot with 200 feet of frontage providing private access to Langmaid's Island.
