If you had your Yorkville condo listed during the month of November, there’s a pretty good chance you recieved and early Christmas present!  43 units sold during the month resulting in a 59% increase compared to the 27 sales recorded in 2009 and one more then October 2010. These numbers go against typical seasonal trends that usually result in a slow down of sales… And we’re sure no one would complain over that kind of change!

Along the lines of trend changing results, 8 Park Rd had 5 sales occur followed close behind by CASA with 4 sales on 33 Charles St.  Usually the newer buildings tend to have the most activity but as 8 Park Rd has shown, that isn’t always the case!  We also noticed a peak in bachelor units as 4 units sold.  Three of those were sold by way of preconstruction and came from the Nicholas development.  The most popular unit was the 2 bedroom style accounting for 14 sales, followed neck and neck by the one bedroom and one bedroom plus den layout at 9 and 8 sales a piece!

On average it took 42 days for condos to sell but for one lucky seller they got it sold in 6.  The best deal was negotiated at 86% percent of asking and the highest paid price was 3% over asking.  A two bedroom, three washroom condo took the cake for the highest price sold at over two million dollars!

We have high hopes for December surpassing the 14 sales recorded in 2009!  Check back later in the week as we announce the newest condo to register in Yorkville….here’s a hint, it has something to do with the 3rd last letter of the Alphabet!

There’s a lot of action going down in Yorkville these days!  This week we’ll be sharing photos from 3 projects that are in the early stages of construction.

The first group of photos comes from the Couture Condos construction site where they’re several levels below ground. They’ve been digging for a few months now and we figure they should start building up early in the new year!

The  Yorkville Condominiums

The BloorCondos team recently got an early look at The Yorkville Condominiums, the latest condo to launch in the neighbourhood!  Located at 32 Davenport Rd, the building will be approx. 31 storeys and will be home to 238 units. Lifetime Developments has hired the the architectural firm of Rudy Wallman to design The Yorkville Condominiums.  Mr. Wallman has been on a hot streak having designed X2 (near by), Lumiere on Bay St and Bisha in the entertainment district. The bold design he’s incorporated into The Yorkville are a much needed change for the traditional box and glass design seen throughout the City!

Below is a photo from the event of the model:

Pack up the pumpkins and bring out the pine…with Halloween over, Christmas is less than 2 months away!  Signs of the festive holiday are quickly popping up all over Yorkville the street lights already wrapped with wreaths.

As we look back at sales in Yorkville for October 2010, we’re greeted with mixed numbers.  On one hand, prices have continued to follow the increasing trend seen throughout the year.  On the other, sales numbers are starting to slow. We saw 42 sales in October, only one more than the previous month.  That number is almost exactly the same as the 43 recorded in October of 2009!  With the addition of new condo inventory to Yorkville, one would think more sales would occur.

On average units sold at 97% of asking!  Greatest deal was had at 88% of asking price and the highest list to sold price was recorded at 111%.  The most popular layout was the one bed plus den with 12 sales followed close behind with the one bed and 2 bed layouts tied with 10 solds a piece!

A custom-designed Penthouse At The Prince Arthur with 11 rooms and 4 washrooms recorded the highest sale in Yorkville!  The most popular building for sales occurred once again at Bloor Street Neighbourhood with 6 sales followed by it’s neighbour to the south, CASA Condos with 3 sales.

As we approach the last quarter of 2010, it will be interesting to see how sales in Yorkville wrap up.
