TorontoRealtyBlog Are you reading your very first blog post here on Toronto Realty Blog? Those who know me – at least, through TRB, are fully aware of my thoughts on pre-construction condos, the pre-construction condo industry, and the way that pre-construction condos are sold and eventually built.

I have been perhaps the harshest critic of the pre-construction condominium industry in Ontario over the past two decades. Some of you, reading this, have made money in pre-construction. I think I grew so disenfranchised with writing about the perils of pre-con that I finally stopped. I have no doubt about that.

It’s just really, really hard to describe an entire year’s blog posts or an entire year’s real estate stories in a standard blog-post length. This is likely more subjective than the top five blog posts , but then again, we run into many of the same themes over and over. Pre-Construction.

Case in point: Do what I want ’cause I can and if I don’t, because I wanna. Spit and retrieve ’cause I give and receive, because I wanna. Gonna get through your head, what the mystery man said, because I’m gonna. What was I doing? But damn, if they weren’t catchy! Who was I with?
