Re-open?

Due to overwhelming amount of feedback from the press and our loyal users, we are now seriously considering opening up housing123 for user contributed property listings. We would also like to welcome content from real estate agents and brokers.

The revised website will strive to focus on quality, integrity, and as always, "make Toronto housing easy".

If you are interested in such a service, please contact us for more information.

Stay tuned!!

Site's Closing

We regret to inform our loyal users that we have received notice to cease and desist our operations from MLS/CREA Legal Counsel. Unfortunately, we do not have the time or money to fight this legal battle and will be closing down access to housing123.com as of today.

Our little project was initially conceived due to frustrations with browsing through property listings on the MLS.ca website. Just for kicks, we decided to make a more user friendly site -with a map- and share it with the public. It turns out we were right. The steady stream of daily users have poured into housing123.com, proving its usefulness!

We do hope that the lessons learned here over the last 10 months can be carried forward and applied to the MLS website with whatever plans they may have.

Thanks for using our site!
