Toronto Life’s top 10 houses and condos of 2016

Every week on Torontolife.com, we highlight a few houses and condos around the city that are either currently on the market or recently sold.

With the upsurge in Toronto’s housing prices still going strong, looking at properties is a whole lot cheaper than buying—and a lot less risky, too.
