Arty Basinski, of Real Estate By Bike, is the agent in charge of selling a semi-detached bungalow in the Beach Triangle area. Dubbed the “lil yellow house” after its bright exterior, the 1+1 bed home has a price tag of $499,000.
Although the property is small, Basinski does a great job of pointing out all of its best features, including its “lit” neighbourhood. The house is in close proximity to the Leslieville Farmer’s Market, The Beaches, Little India, and a local police station.
Basinski also notes that there are benefits to owning this piece of property. “Can rent it out for two g's collect all the moneys, fact that's affirmative, a condo alternative,” he raps. “Move right in, it's truly homey, owners loved it here by their own testimony.”
