For the TRUE Gastown loft lover! An incredibly unique street-level live/work corner loft at the iconic Koret Lofts. Two entrances—townhouse-style off Columbia or from inside the building—give you tons of flexibility to maximize your living or workspace. Soaring double-height ceilings, huge corner windows, exposed timber beams and original wood windows pair perfectly with modern finishes by Alda Pereira. Includes parking, plus a professionally designed courtyard with outdoor kitchen. Under $1M, this is a rare opportunity to combine home + small business space into one mortgage. Short-term rentals allowed for even more flexibility!

At the current sales pace, it would take about 9 months to sell all the homes currently for sale here — a Buyer's market.

SELLER'S
BALANCED
BUYER'S

More homes are for sale than there are buyers, so buyers tend to have more choice and more room to negotiate on price.

What's this?

Months of inventory = the number of homes currently for sale ÷ the average number sold per month recently. As a rule of thumb, under 5 months favours sellers, 5–8 is balanced, and over 8 favours buyers.
