Square-Foot

: Last month the Heidebrechts put their 1,500-square-foot, two-bedroom bungalow in east-end Little India up for sale for $599,900, according to Toronto Star. A four-person bidding war later, it sold for $706,000. After two years of scouring Realtor.ca, squeezing through open-house crowds and watching homes they’d love to live in go for $100,000 or more over the asking price, they’ve thrown in the towel on Toronto. They move into their $482,500 home in Kitchener Forest Hill area in July. Their Toronto home would pretty much fit into the double-car garage. It a four-bedroom, more than 3,000-square-foot detached house on a quiet cul de sac they liken to Scarborough Guildwood. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
