I really like watching fancy house tours, so overall I enjoyed the show. It was light and fun, and cool to see a glimpse into the luxury market in Toronto. There wasn't much in terms of storyline. No real character development. The "drama" was pretty dull. If you're looking for the Canadian version of Selling Sunset, this definitely isn't it. Don't go into it expecting much. It's a good show though for just shutting your brain off and unwinding in the evenings. I'm sure some of the listings were probably fake, but it was still neat to see the different houses/ architectural styles/ decor choices. All in all a decent show, but nothing to write home about.

Out of touch
cassyballs26 April 2024
Who's idea was this to even produce this show ?? When the average Canadian can't even afford a home across Canada you have all these yuppie real estate agents acting like they're the damn wolf of Wallstreet , it's a gross slap in the face . Shows like this do nothing to help cool our housing market. First episode I watch the guys looking for a 21-25 million dollar home???? The fact that this was released in 2023 goes to show that these rich folks are out of touch areseholes who keep over inflating the housing market to make a quick buck. Let me guess CBC play a part in this ? Wouldn't doubt it for a second.
Makes me embarrassed to be from Toronto
CallaDB26 April 2024
Let's start by putting aside how blatantly tone deaf it is to release a show like this amidst the worst housing crisis in Toronto's history with a record number of unhoused people and even working professionals struggling to fulfill a basic human need. It's an obvious and damning lapse in judgement to all involved that I hope comes with business related consequences after this dumpster fire gets cancelled. Instead, I'll just focus on how utterly CRINGE this show is as a whole. From the camera quality to the painfully bad acting and dialogue, if you didn't know better you might think it was a parody of Selling Sunset that was purposefully and hilariously bad. But no, this is how these people genuinely chose to present themselves to the world. The fake drama, the fake lifestyle, it's like a fantasy of what every Bay St. D-Bag would think was "luxury" in the mid 2000s. I usually love seeing my hometown represented on screen, but this is just cheesy and embarrassing.
Abhorrent
chrisfernbeck2 May 2024
While I don't necessarily agree with the previous posts with regard to going after the show due to it being out of touch, I will say that it's pretty horrible on all levels. From the camera work being elementary compared to Luxe Listings Sydney, Selling Sunset, Selling the OC, and, EVEN, Buying Beverly Hills, the acting is atrocious. It seems that all the characters, including the guest appearances from buyers and builders, seems to be just a way to boost the businesses of people who really haven't "Made it". Close ups of fake Rolex Day Dates(Jubilee Bracelets, really? That's not an option, and, even if it was, why would someone choose that over the "Presidential bracelet?", houses that never sold and the listing were terminated. Wow. Embarrassing for Toronto. I have no doubt that this show will be cancelled, and if not, what has this world come to?
Wow. Wow. Wow.

The production value, direction and music for this show is phenomenal. I always knew that Toronto has a lot of affluent people but to get to have a peek at some of the houses and condos of this caliber in the GTA is a real treat. We can definitely rival Selling Sunset in L. A. and The Parisian Agency in France. It really made me want to venture to change profession and become a Real Estate Agent. The drone shots and arial panoramic views are breathtaking. It really shows off the beauty of our city. Makes me so proud to be a Torontonian. Keep up the fantastic work and continue to showcase the heart of Canada in order for us to elevate the 6ix.
you will lower your IQ if you watch this show
salavich27 April 2024
This is what happens when networks or streaming services have to present Canadian content. We get content like this.
This isn't even close to reality - this is just uggggg.
Like if anyone who had that much money to buy houses like this would EVER consider buying from over botoxed pretensious wanna bes like this.
We need make it hard to get a real estate license in this country. This is an embarrassement for anyone who is actually a real real estate agent in the City.
Influencers are not real estate agents - never should be. Anyone who is seriously looking to purchase real estate in Toronto would stay clear of these actors.

Refreshing!
curtismitchellplatt28 April 2024
I thought this was a really refreshing take on a reality theme that has been a bit stale for a bit. Love the Canadian touch, the head guy at Team Torkan has a wild backstory, and seems very genuine. You can see that passed down to his team too, curious to hear more about Veronica Harris' story, great natural charisma and seems so kind. Also refreshing to see that in that industry! Nice to see a great Canadian city featured too, such beautiful areas to show off, and amazing variety too. Hope they get a season 2 to show off the people and places this country has to show, they've only scratched the surface!
The worst trash on television
alan_lovatt29 April 2024
Really?
This is true television garbage, horrid, nasty, name dropping, botoxed clowns. How did this show EVER get approval to start filming.
It is so terribly out of touch.
How do you base a show on 15 second snippets of mindless drivel interspersed with all the trashiest music in today's society.
I feel like this would work better as a comedy, on the lines of basing a whole show on the Catalina Wine Mixer, you've already got the perfect cast in place. This is not funny, not interesting, poorly scripted bottom feeding television. The reinforcement of the foul language and unprofessional attitudes should tell everyone to stay away not only from this show but the "performers" as well.
Just my humble opinion.

The Audacity
ryan-f-kolman28 April 2024
At a time where more and more Canadians are ending up homeless because of the skyrocketing cost of housing, these geniuses think that it's a great time to launch a show detailing the homes of the country's fabulously wealthy. This is exactly why we need to tax the sun out of them. No one deserves or is entitled to live like this when there are families living in vans and RVs - people with full-time jobs! I hope this show ruins the careers of the hosts as well as the brain-dead producers who green-lit this project. I guess the silver lining of this trashy show is that they're showing the rest of us exactly where to find them.
Cringe!
hipposeason4 May 2024
I've Watch so many real estate shows, Anywhere from selling OC, selling Sunset, Buying Beverly Hills.
To be honest, if I could rate this is zero I would. This show makes me embarrassed to be in the Real estate industry, In my opinion, one of the worst shows I've ever watched in my entire life. The realtors/actors are terrible. The best part of the show is obviously the properties.
All these people are so out of touch With reality. And I would be embarrassed to have produced such trash.
I feel bad for anyone that thinks this is how realtors are specially in the GTA area. This show is so cringe!

Just Plain Embarrassing Only Thing Missing is JT and Freeland
eugenio-steele29 April 2024
I also cannot believe that this show has been released as this time when the whole of Canada is under a inflated property bubble and we can see who is just responsible. This is what happens when a large amount of money is trapped in this bubble and boy its going to be refreshing to see when it bursts.
I question who would want to be involved in this show but its ok the posers and actors rise to the occasion.
I especially loved the story about how the Mans Man dodged the draft in Iran. We need to stop confusing wealth and success with good people.
I also would not trust any of the real estate agents in this show and it sadly points out how bad the market is in Toronto.
Also this show is immediately dated as the ONE as gone bankrupt. And is heading down litigation street.
But if you want to blame anyone about the housing crisis in Canada you need not look any further than the government's past policies and guess what when it blows up.
Its going to be us again the Tax Payer who will be on the hook.
After all the money that has been wasted we could have given a free house or parcel of land to everyone in Canada.

Real Estate Ruined by Rap
captiveliberty5 May 2024
Toronto architecture showcased by competitive real estate brokers is marred by the blasting of rap music throughout every single episode. Trying to absorb the lovely interiors and exquisite design becomes truly painful whilst being forced to hear randos screeching about being a VIP.
Why is a music genre known for its violent and misogynistic lyrics used in conjunction with beiatiful structural engineering and architectural design? The jarring juxtaposition makes no sense whatsoever.
Blasting rap throughout each and every episode is unnecessary rudeness. Muting the sound works. Audiences should not be forced to endure these poor choices by the director.

Tone-deaf and creepy AF
mttnotes4 May 2024
Did Justin Trudeau produce this, because this show is truly tone-deaf. Canadians are facing homelessness and poverty like never before and this is what they decided Canadians wanted to watch?!
My daughter and I didnt even make it half way through the first episode before we had to tap out. The acting is terrible and unnatural. The actors are chilling to look at, botoxed to the absolute max, and when they look directly into the camera one can feel one's blood run cold. I cant imagine having to deal with any of these cyborgs in real life.
The real estate shown in the first half of episode one was absolutely fugly AF.
Luxe Listings Toronto is not worth watching.

Absolutely horrendous
thepodger9 May 2024
I dont generally comment, nor do I watch "reality" shows but this was disgusting to watch. Im not Canadian, but Ive heard how bad things are going for them with just housing and basic living. Watching these convoluted make up caked botox injected, lip injected crazy eyed people act is literally revolting I dont care what country you are from. As stated before by another comment, the draft dodging story of the guy whos supposed to be the "mentor" really opens up your eyes even more that these kind of people will go through any lengths to escape reality or real responsibility. I serverd my country, and have worked with many good people who were from countries that had mandatory service and they did their damn part.
For individuals in a people oriented occupation, I wouldnt buy a bag of apples from such superficial, self centered cowards.
