My name is Steven Fudge, and I’m a realtor and property consultant in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I’m mostly known for two things. I’m the real estate veteran who’s been guiding prospective purchasers & sellers through their real estate journeys for nearly 36 years. And I’m the guy who began his real estate career that day in 1989 when the Toronto real estate bubble burst.
I’m delighted to share this timely news story published in Real Estate Magazine Canada by journalist Eric Stober. Eric reached out to me for an interview based on some of my past blogs, including this very well-read one: ‘What Are The Real Financial, Emotional And Health Costs Of Commuting?‘
The opening line of the REM article effectively sums up this escalating issue: “In Toronto, traffic congestion is doing more than fraying tempers. Industry experts say the mounting congestion is weighing on homebuyers, raising questions about the city’s liveability, and even straining the work of real estate agents.“
You can read the article here: “Back to the grind: Commutes take centre stage in Toronto’s housing market“
Thanks, Eric & REM! I love my job, and to be sought out for my thoughts and ideas is the icing on the cake!

Want to have someone on your side?
Since 1989, I’ve steered my career through a real estate market crash and burn; survived a slow painful cross-country recession; completed an M.E.S. graduate degree from York University called ‘Planning Housing Environments’; executed the concept, sales & marketing of multiple new condo and vintage loft conversions; and guided hundreds of clients through the purchase and sale of hundreds of freehold and condominium dwellings across the original City of Toronto. From a gritty port industrial city into a glittering post-industrial global centre, I’ve navigated the ebbs and flows of a property market as a consistent Top Producer. And I remain as passionate about it today as when I started.
