Context is a Toronto-based real estate developer, founded by President Howard Cohen. Since the 1970s, buyers have been moving further out of the downtown core of Toronto into the suburbs, but Howard Cohen was looking to buck that trend, and focus on building up, rather than out.

Originally founded by Howard and Steven Gross in 1997, Context has been focusing on providing mixed-use, affordable housing in the downtown core of Toronto, and as a result, has been in large part responsible for the iconic skyline of the city we see today.

Having built a number of high-profile projects like Library District in the Entertainment District, and Market Wharf, which sits next to the famous St. Lawrence Market, Context has built a portfolio of eye-catching condominiums that bring a densification, and rejuvenation to the Toronto downtown Core.

RioCan, meanwhile, is one of the most ubiquitous, trusted real estate firms in the GTA. Since it’s founding in 1993, they have been responsible for countless projects across North America. Largely known for its large portfolio of shopping centres and supermarkets, RioCan has begun to shift into the Toronto condominium market as well.

With projects like the Yonge Eglinton Centre, a stunning example of mixed-use condominium and shopping, RioCan has shown its ability to examine market forces and provide projects that fit the needs of the neighbourhood.

Focused on building quality relationships with it’s tenants, buyers, and communities, RioCan works to develop spaces where everybody feels welcome, and uplifted.

In addition, RioCan is working to build environmenta

lly friendly projects that will be future-proof, and reduce the carbon footprints of the residents of these projects.

A trusted brand known for building with the highest production standards and materials, a home built by RioCan is the perfect place to settle down.

Leslieville has changed a great deal in the past few decades. Originally a working-class neighbourhood, this area of the city has grown into a trendy, urban community with countless unique restaurants and amenities. Popular with young professionals and young families, this district near the beaches makes for the perfect place to set down roots, and as a result, the population of the area is rising quickly.

51% of area residents own their homes, and most of that area is semi-detached houses. Two-storey houses make up a great deal of the blocks within Leslieville, but as densification continues, we’re seeing a rise in condominiums every year.

The average premium in the area is $844K, and increasing.

Well located, and just off the beaten path, Leslieville has excellent transit, beautiful views, and simple connections to nature, which make it an increasingly popular site for young Torontonians looking for homes, making ownership in this area a wise investment.

• Vaccine started
• Borders will be open
• Travel will return
• Immigration will return and much more than before
• International students will come back
• Majority will return to the office
• Low rise prices have appreciated substantially in a short time, creating a big gap between low rise and high rise. Historically due to affordability, the market demand will switch to high rise, and prices will increase to close the gap with low rise market
These are the signs of the next condo boom. Demand will exceed supply, and prices will continue to appreciate.
The limited-time promotion for the cottage collection with 2 years of free maintenance and property taxes will make this investment worry-free for the next 6 years instead of 4, which will result in much higher capital appreciation potential3
