Mississauga becomes hot property
As Canada comes to the forefront of the real estate map, Mississauga is increasingly taking centre stage.
The scenic suburb, located on the shores of Lake Ontario on the western end of Toronto is already packed with an affluent, well educated population of 770,000 and growing by the day as the country’s 6th largest city. Not surprisingly, Mississauga currently rates as one of the best cities in Canada to live in, all set to score as the country’s city of the future.
As investment pours in to buy more properties and condos in Mississauga and build more residential and commercial complexes, all efforts have been taken to hold on to the pristine beauty, both within the city and around it.
Over 480 parks and woods have been preserved through the joint efforts of the government and community. Property prices are more affordable than Toronto, with no compromise on urban conveniences in the way of public transport, shopping complexes, medical and educational facilities as well as entertainment through the Celebration Square and Living Arts Centre, among others.

There is little land left for large scale housing developments, except for a few hectares for high density housing downtown. As the demand for housing shoots up and the city continues to grow, we would say that it couldn’t be a better time to buy property in Mississauga now.
