Tim Hughes and Rozita Razavi lost three bidding wars, and were bullied out of a fourth before it started. “There were Seaton, Grafton and Manning,” says Mr. Hughes, counting off the streets that could have been. “And then Beverley, that was the bully offer.”...
Clients Tim and Rozita at their new home in Parkdale.
By June, the couple was ready to take a break for the summer when their agent suggested they look at one more house in Parkdale. The commute seemed a bit long, though they both liked the neighbourhood’s cool yet down-to-earth vibe.... “It’s an amazing house,” Ms. Razavi says. “Better than we expected.” It does need some modernizing and renovations – Mr. Hughes is looking forward into making the unfinished, 1,000-square-foot loft (which has awesome vaunted ceilings) into a livable space.

An instructor at the Toronto Real Estate Board, Chopik teaches realtors how to green their businesses and marketing. He encourages them to make eco-friendly changes, and then tell their clients—potentially hundreds per realtor—about those changes. “We have an incredible opportunity to help consumers understand it's in their interest—because the future value of their house is attached to energy consumption—and help them plug into homeowner facing green organizations.” (excerpt read more)

Talk about the medium being the message. Chris Chopik, the quixotic Green Party candidate running in next week's Ontario by-election to replace Michael Bryant, gets around the St. Paul's riding by pedal power, reinforcing his environmentally friendly credentials. His foldable, neon green Strida draws stares out on the hustings. "It's a way to start a conversation," he told us this week, showing the canniness of a low-key marketer. "Breaking the ice is always the hardest part …." Also? "My neighbour's 13-year-old kid calls it a sick bike," he said. "How cool is it to be cool with a 13-year-old?" Just think: Five more years and those 13-year-olds will be able to vote!
