Baby Momma Morning - Sunday March 30th

- And Much More

- Breakfast will be served by Alexjwilson.com and Friends

 

Investing in Florida - Sunday April 20th

It has been a very cold winter and many of you may seriously be considering investing in a property in Florida. Beyond the benefit of warm temperatures there are great investment opportunities there.   

 

Client Appreciation Party 2014 - Friday April 25th

Every year Alexjwilson.com and The James Loewen Group team up to thank our clients for a fantastic year. Our goal for our party this year is to top all our other previous parties. We would like to see 300 plus people through the door and have everyone talking about it for the rest of 2014. Circle it in your calendars today.

 

Red Door Shelter Mother's Day Brunch - Sunday May 11th

Thanks to our clients, friends, and family we were able to raise $5,000.00 for The Red Door Shelter. On Sunday May 11th we will be hosting a Mother's Day Brunch for all of the mothers and their children. Thank you all for the generous support.  We will also present them with a cheque that day.

 

Investing in Condos - Thursday May 22nd

Many members of the Alexjwilson.com family are seasoned investors but there are others that are interested in learning how to invest in condos and new development projects. We want to teach you how.

 

Suburban Appreciation Day - Saturday June 7th

Alexjwilson.com focuses on the Toronto market but many of their clients live outside of the city. Therefore on the afternoon of Saturday June 7th Alexjwilson.com will be leaving the city and hosting an appreciation event for his GTA clients. We encourage you to bring friends and family.

 

World Pride Day Pre Party - Saturday June 14th

Unlike Rob Ford - Alexjwilson.com embraces all of Toronto and its diversity. To help ring in the biggest party of 2014 Alexjwilson.com will be hosting a Pre-World Pride event on June 14th. We look forward to celebrating with those that support Pride and what it stands for. 

  

Family Fun Day - Saturday July 12th

Many members of the Alexjwilson.com family have started families of their own. Therefore we will be hosting our second annual Family Fun Day in High Park. We look forward to meeting all the new additions and seeing how the additions from last year have grown.

 

Stay Tuned For Our Fall and Winter 2014 Events

Toronto, ON

Alex Wilson attended the VIP broker review event for The Taylor Leslieville.

 

A few notes on some very attractive points of this development:

1) 24 hr Queen Street Car Line to access downtown.

2) Shared Access of Amenities to The Carlaw Amenities(Reducing fees).

3) The Crows Theatre will be located in The Carlaw which will also have a restaurant and bar.
 
4) Finishings are 9 ft ceilings, exposed concrete for loft effect, built in appliances (matches cabinets), granite counters, and engineered hardwood.

5) Building is low rise which is appealing to many end users (they feel it offers more of a community feel).

6) Located in the Heart of Leslieville which offers Art Galleries, Lounges, Restaurants, , Boutique Shopping, Jimmie Simpson Park and Ashbridges Bay

7) Easy Access to Gardiner Expressway.
 

8) Leslieville is one of the hottest Real Estate Areas in Toronto. It is one of Toronto's Prime Real Estate Pockets as per the Globe and Mail - an area protected from bubbles.

 

WE REACHED OUR GOAL - $5,000.00

Thanks to our clients, friends and family we were able to raise $5,000.00 for the Red Door Shelter.

 

On Sunday May 11th we will be hosting a Mother's Day Brunch for all of the Mothers and their Children. 

 

Thank you all for the generous support.  We will also present them with a cheque that day.
