GTA real estate. NEW TOWNHOMES SALES IN MISSISSAUGA WAS A GREAT SUCCESS!

Just one more sign that the real estate development has gone mad in the GTA: Hopeful buyers were waiting up to three days to buy new property in Mississauga.

Lining up overnight for real estate is becoming a regular sight in Toronto, so much so that hopeful buyers are perfecting their own first-come, first-served etiquette.

This time, about 100 people slumped in lawn chairs near the corner of Winston Churchill Boulevard and Erin Centre Boulevard in Erin Mills, a Mississauga burb that is rapidly filling with townhouses and big-box shopping plazas.
The rules were simple: Showers took a back seat to roll calls that weeded out the uncommitted. Sleep, if any, was taken in the car, and boorish behaviour was left outside. Peanuts, sudoku and a sense of humour seemed to help.

Picket Fences II is the latest community to rely on word of mouth at these types of events for publicity and sales. The prices also help: Three-bedroom townhomes go from $284,900 to $309,000. The developer, the Daniels Corporation, specializes in affordable housing, and the 107 units are all expected to go this weekend.
Unlike Beyond the Sea, the Lake Shore condo that will not be constructed until 2010 but nonetheless had 150 real estate agents lined up this week, Picket Fences II is fully built and set for residents as early as 30 days, a dream for parents who want to get settled before school year starts.

Don Pugh, vice-president of Daniels’ low rise housing, touted the location: There are schools, access to two highways and even a bus stop, right outside the fence, which by the way, is not picket.

It all made the deal a little bit sweeter to the mothers and fathers who took a day (or three) off work to camp out in between the neat brick homes yesterday. As far as the “self-policing” lineup was concerned, it certainly made things fiercer.
Besides portable toilets, water and moral support, Daniels reps butted out of the lineup, mostly to avoid charges of favouritism.
