Earth Hour In Toronto



























Earth Hour in Toronto exceeded expectations and the power consumption dropped 8.7 per cent, far below the estimated 5 per cent.

It was exciting all around the city but most noticeable from Toronto Island looking back at the City as Condos and buildings turned off their lights.

Even the bright lights and billboards at Yonge and Dundas were dimmed as well
as Toronto City Hall.

Next year I am sure if all the downtown Toronto Condos and office buildings participate, we can do much better.

Here is more on Toronto's first Earth hour from the Toronto Star

Toronto Real Estate Sales Figures






Toronto Real Estate sales figures follows the same cycle year after year with Real Estate sales activity peaking in the Spring, fading in the Summer, moving upward in the Fall and then cooling in the Winter.


Seasonally adjusted is how the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) applys a formula to give a more accurate comparison of true sales figures.



Now we have seasonally adjusted, new sales, resales, homes, condominiums, lofts, townhouses all thrown in to the mix just to confuse us all, just a little bit more.



Sales figures for Toronto Condos seem to edge up every month, last year being a prime example with records set even at year end. Annual Condo units increased 40 percent to 22,654 unit sales in 2007, very healthy in the current financial markets here and also south of the border.
