Got this shot today of the Motion Apartment Building under construction. Its been a while since there was large scale dedicated apartment building construction in Toronto. Seems developers have left this market to focus on condominium buildings which are far more profitable for them. Or at the very least provide them with a reasonable and quick profit from which they can escape with after a short period of time.
This project is located at the corner of Bay and Dundas, across from the Atrium on Bay, the Eaton Centre and the Bay Street Bus Terminal. Its centrally located between the financial core and Yorkville so everything is in walking distance for those that don't mind it
Getting a Mortgage and Mortgage Insurance through National Bank Insurance for financing a loan to purchase at FIVE Condos is actually a relatively easy process, and new rules from the federal government has required that company include new regulations, which have made the home loan and mortgage process a bit more difficult. Those changes at National Bank Insurance include shortening the amortization period for which the loan can be held by the consumer, and the degree to which the property is financed by the mortgage. They have also increased deposit requirements to lift the loan insurance amount. Mortgage insurance from National Bank Insurance is actually one of the major financing costs on home loans.
Investment Trusts have no taken to looking to purchase rental properties and acquiring mortgages through financing auctions by the banks looking to shore up their balances sheets in light of stricter government regulation. These regulations have actually made holding residential mortgages by the large financial institutions harder to hold. Currently investors are looking to increase their position in rental properties in Toronto, at the same time the federal government in co-operation with the financial institutions are making getting and qualifying for loans and mortgages more difficult
