Failing to address our housing crisis could be catastrophic to all Canadians and all businesses. Having an affordable housing market is a key staple of any functioning society/economy. We have narrowly sailed by so far but can’t continue our current direction without rapid change. [...]
Bridging this gap requires more than empathizing with Canadians who find themselves priced out of their homeownership dreams – it is about real actions that we are taking to continue to be solutions-based in our steadfast commitment to provide attractive rental housing that fosters vibrant communities and attainability in those same neighbourhoods where families are looking to buy [...]
Core Development Group has submitted a Zoning By-law Amendment to the City of Toronto for a site along the Danforth east of Greektown. The amendments would allow for an increase in height, density, and site specific development standards for the assembled properties. [...]
For years, Scarborough’s Birch Cliff has been touted as one of the city’s next up-and-coming neighbourhoods; even former Toronto chief city planner Jennifer Keesmat and real estate developer Brad Lamb have singled it out as a good place to invest. Part of the appeal is that the area is close to transit — the Danforth GO and Victoria Park TTC stations are nearby [...]
Bonnie Burak and Scott Hizaka expected to buy a small fixer-upper as their first family home a few years down the road. But those plans went out the window when a new door opened unexpectedly. By chance, they spotted the presentation centre of a new development of modern townhomes in east Toronto’s historic Birch Cliff neighbourhood last summer. It was then that home ownership became an immediate possibility for the couple [...]
Toronto's Birch Cliff neighbourhood appears on the brink of a mini condo boom as the southern Scarborough community draws in investment with competitive land prices. Core Development Group is leading the charge to bring new housing to the established low-rise neighbourhood, with one project already under construction and another on the way that both aim to respect the local context while contributing much-needed housing [...]
Corey Hawtin founded Core Development Group six years ago as a subsidiary of his North York-based Mazenga Building Group to exploit infill property opportunities that don’t fit the parent company’s model.
Core’s focus is on finding these properties in the Greater Toronto and Golden Horseshoe areas of Ontario and building low-, mid- and high-rise residential buildings, some with commercial [...]

Downtown: a 20-minute drive. Bluffer’s Park: 15 minutes by bicycle. The Beach: a 30-minute walk. Lake Ontario: far as the eye can see. “Close enough, far enough” could well be the slogan for Birchcliff Urban Towns, a new collection of 52 townhomes on Kingston Rd., just east of Warden Ave. [...]
If you want a Beaches home, without the accompanying price-tag you might just have to cast your eyes a bit further east. The Birch Cliff neighbourhood, a pocket on top of the western part of the Scarborough Bluffs, is one such area. And Bryan Nykoliation, the president of Core Development Group, is so excited about it his company bought three pieces of land there [...]

It's no secret that the coming Eglinton Crosstown LRT has been attracting developers to the uptown Toronto avenue like wasps to a fruity summer cocktail. There's heaps of money to be made providing TTC-accessible living space to young professionals and their families; people who, at this point, can only aspire to buy a "real" home, especially in such pricey eastbound neighbourhoods as Sherwood Park and Leaside [...]
In September, UrbanToronto took notice of the very modern exteriors of Core Modern Homes, a new urban townhome development in Toronto's Leaside neighbourhood.
