DNA1 Condos at a glance

Address: 1 Shaw Street, Toronto (King West / Niagara)

Community: part of the DNA complex with DNA2 at 1005 King St W and DNA3 at 1030 King St W

Where the DNA community began

The DNA buildings came out of a mid-2000s plan for the land around the historic Massey-Harris office. That plan restored the heritage building as lofts, built new condos to the west, and created Massey Harris Park in between. DNA1 at 1 Shaw was the first phase. It was so successful that two more buildings followed, and today the DNA community has more than a thousand homes.

Suites

DNA1 was designed as a loft-inspired building, with open layouts and large windows. Most are one-bedroom and one-bedroom-plus-den layouts, with some two-bedrooms. That mix makes the building popular with first-time buyers, young professionals and investors looking for steady rental demand near Liberty Village.

You’re right where King West meets Liberty Village, with Massey Harris Park next door, Liberty Village’s cafés, grocery stores and offices just south, and Trinity Bellwoods and Ossington a short walk north. The 504 King streetcar stops at Shaw, and Exhibition GO station is nearby.

We recently worked with Michael to sell our condo in Liberty Village. We cannot say enough about the experience and would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking to purchase or sell a condo in the King West area. Michael is very knowledgeable about the GTA condo market and was quick to provide us with comparative prices to ensure our condo was priced competitively. His team did a fantastic job marketing the property. The online photos and accompanying brochures highlighted all the features of the property which helped generate interest. Moreover, Michael is compassionate, courteous, patient, and reliable. He was quick to reply whenever we had questions and our tenants appreciated his team’s effort to accommodate their schedules when booking showings. In the end, we had multiple offers and sold the property for over 110% of asking. We definitely attest our success with the sale to the work Michael did preparing the property and during the offer night! If you are looking for a downtown realtor specializing in condo purchases and sales, we would encourage you to contact Michael Chamber.

Michael is an excellent realtor and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or sell a condo in the King West area. He is extremely knowledgeable about the GTA condo market and works efficiently and diligently for his clients. I recently used Michael to sell my condo in Liberty Village and in less than 5 days, it sold for over 110% of the asking price. I cannot thank Michael enough for all he did-marketing the property and scheduling showings-to ensure I received top dollar for the property. If you are looking for an experienced, professional, client focused realtor, I would encourage you to contact Michael Camber.

Sara was absolutely amazing to work with, she is so efficient and communicated with us every step of the way so we knew what was going on at all times. She was very honest which made us feel very reassured with things. We highly recommend working with Sara, I promise you wont be disappointed

Amanda Buckstein was an amazing counterpart throughout our entire process. We were in need of a rental unit ASAP and she delivered in every possible way. From finding units within our price range and criteria (parking...), to replacing units on our list as quickly as they had been rented out. The speed at which she works, her responsiveness, and overall willingness to help played a pivotal role in making what could've been a pull-your-hair-out level of stress feel like something much more manageable. Highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent in the Toronto area.

Candice Cassar

I worked with Sara Camber to purchase my first home in Liberty Village. I knew exactly what I wanted and she made it happen - I got my dream home. She was excellent to work with, very accommodating, knowledgeable and lovely. I highly recommend her and the Michael Camber Real Estate Group for any real estate needs. Their team offers a full service approach that translates into a truly informative and successful real estate experience for their clients.

Working with Sara was a great experience. I'm one of those people that needs everything planned and precise when it come to big changes. I felt my concerns and questions were all taken care of while searching for a new place to move, especially as I'd not been planning to on such short notice. I really appreciated how available everyone from the team was to answer my questions and find me a place that was ideal for my needs!

Mike Carcasole

I worked with Amanda to find a place to rent in Liberty Village and she was a pleasure to work with. She was quick to respond to any questions I had and took the time to show me a bunch of places before finalizing on the place I ended up getting.

I cannot say enough great things about Michael Camber. I had followed his sales for a year, and was so impressed with the marketing. When my tenants moved out, he was the first person I contacted to sell my condo in Liberty Village. The unit was really one of a kind, and would also appeal to a slice of the market. Michael was well aware of it, and had experience with it already. Him and his team staged it so beautifully, accenting the highlights and executed amazing marketing. He kept me up to date on what was going on with the perfect amount of timely details. He makes you feel like you are his only client. It was hectic time for me personally, with work, school, new job and wedding out of town when the tenants moved out - and Michael took care of everything while I was away. Everything went so smoothly. I could go on and on about how easy, smoothly, and professionally the whole process was. Not to mention I really needed to close before the new year - Michael delivered on everything, and thrilled with the price we got too. I have bought and sold and rented with other realtors before, but none compare to the experience I had with Michael. Turn key, Drama free, Stress free, and better than expected results. If I could give 10 stars, I would. Thank you Michael and team!

Joe Sandrasagra

We sought out Michael for his positive reviews and the captured market we felt he had in the Toronto West area with his social media reach and number of active listings there. The experience we had was similarly nothing short of exceptional. Truly turnkey, drama-free and what was an outstanding sales result. The place was initially tenanted and not primed for sale, which was a concern as we were out of the country and needing a quick close before year end. Michael and his team immediately went to work, overseeing key pickup, cleanup & prep, staging etc. without me needing to be there or spend unnecessarily. The end result was stunningly transformative and matched the compelling narrative Michael laid out for the listing. We sold the place within 24 hrs, on multiple offers and for more than asking which I didn't think was possible. It was clear Michael brings a lot of know-how to the process but what we valued most was his courteousness and general advocacy on our behalf. In a sea of agent options, Michael stands out with a unique offering while making the process a true pleasure.

Tania Butler

Michael is amazing! Helped me long before I put my condo for sale. Answered all my questions over the past few years and was on top of everything as soon as I was ready to list. Extremely happy with the sale and everything he did for me. Highly recommend.

Jamie Farrell

I CAN NOT speak highly enough about the amazing support that I got from Michael & his team. I was needing to sell my condo, under very compressed timelines, after leaving the country for a reassignment. I was incredibly stressed about the entire process (not just of upending my entire life to move away...but of not being in the country for when my place was on the market)...but Michael made me feel more than comfortable with the entire process. He remained calm (even though I may not have been at all times) and made me feel every time we spoke that I was his only client. He staged my place beautifully, built a very strong marketing plan - and got incredible traffic through. In the end, he got me a price that I NEVER imagine I would have gotten - and with a 2-week close. He is an absolute superstar and so professional in every interaction. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to sell their place. He absolutely knows his stuff and will take great care of anyone who takes the time to work with him!

Melanie Abbott

I worked with Sara for the purchase of my first home. Her knowledge of the Liberty Village area and each of the specific buildings was incredibly helpful background when looking to narrow my focus. She was patient throughout the process, and went above and beyond my expectations by giving me advice and answers to all of my questions (both during my search and after closing). I'm so grateful I had Sara helping me find the perfect place to call home, and would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase in the area!

Ken T.

Only positive things to say about Michael. The whole process was smooth. No hiccups. He took care of everything to make the place look its best without going overboard. I didn't have to do anything, which is what I wanted. Our loft sold quickly with a quick closing, no conditions. Michael knew we wanted to sell the unit ASAP, and he delivered without compromising on the selling price. In fact, he got us what we were hoping for, and broke a record for the building. A comparable unit, in the same building, sold only a few days before ours. That unit, with a DIFFERENT agent, sold for LESS and had to be listed TWICE. Our experience was the opposite: ours was listed once and got the highest price. This is proof positive of Michael's abilities to get the best price with the least amount of hassle. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with Michael and his team in the future. In fact, I'm counting on it in the near future. Thanks, Michael, for doing a great job!

JOHN MISENER

My son and I just completed a sale in Liberty Village today. We had the pleasure of working with Michael Camber. His advice and professionalism helped sell our condo in under one week and we broke a record in the building and the neighbourhood for a one+one BR. We do not live in Toronto. So being from out of town we were counting on his advice to prepare for sale. I own 5 other rental properties outside Toronto so I am skeptical when it comes to an agent I do not know. Michael helped arrange a painter at a great price as well as a cleaning company. We agreed to pay extra for staging and it was spectacular. If you don't have an agent call Michael...if you have an agent , change now!! My unit would still be listed if it was not for Michael Camber. Sincerely John and Geoff M.

Daniel Lee

Michael was great. Responded quickly with great communication and he handled everything including some small fixes and picking up keys to the unit. Didn't have to go to the unit even once which is great because it's not close to where I live. No nickel and diming just great service. Would use again if I had another condo in the area.

Garima Saini

We came across Camber group through our google search last month as we were looking for a dynamic realtor that would be able to get us an investment property quickly. I spoke to many realtors during this process but most lacked the urgency that me and my husband were seeking. We are very busy professionals and really wanted to work with someone that was able to deliver in a short amount of time. We were very fortunate to find Sara. Sara has been a delight to work with, always responsive and honest. We were able to put an offer on a property the first day of our showings and the same evening we secured it as well. Thank you again Sara!

Julie S.

Michael is an outstanding real estate agent who knows the market, has a well developed marketing plan and made our selling experience effortless. We were always up to date on all details and next steps. Michael truly exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend him!

Sanam Skinner

Michael was very professional and sold my Liberty Village condo both quickly and at a price point that left me impressed. If you're looking for a quick sale in the area, he's your guy!

Victoria Marshall

It was a pleasure to deal with Michael Camber. Michael’s advertising strategy, including the advice of his staging team, attracted a great deal of interest. His judgment on pricing was excellent, significantly higher than other agents gave us and, as it turned out, entirely accurate, setting a record for the area. He obviously knows the Liberty Village market well. We sold above listing in under a week. We appreciated Michael’s attention to detail. When we had an issue with one of the sales agents who brought prospective buyers around, Michael dealt with the matter quickly. We felt that our property was in the best of hands. He also charged us a very competitive rate for his services. We would not hesitate to recommend Michael Camber’s services to anyone.

Michelle McBeth

I called Michael because of the large amount of positive reviews on google. Immediately during our first call I knew I made the right decision. Michael is an expert Real Estate agent and his speciality in Toronto’s West End was clear. His advice helped us achieve great offers. My husband and I would highly recommend Michael to anyone we know or asking.

Robert Grano

Sara was great and I firmly believe that we achieved one of the best deals possible in this market. She took the time to go back and forth with the other agent to make the offer as good as it could possibly get. In addition, she demonstrated a high level of experience and up-to-date real estate knowledge by also protecting me from faulty clauses within the purchase agreement. She is not just an agent that wants to rush a deal through and get paid as soon as possible. I appreciate that and I am so very pleased with the end result. I look forward to working with her again.

Jen Hn

Michael and his team were wonderful right from the beginning of our process to sell our liberty village townhouse through to closing. His professionalism and knowledge of the market helped us to develop a winning strategy. He went out of his way to assist us with the staging and condo prep as we were living out of town at the time. He was committed to getting us top dollar and at no point put any pressure on us. I would definitely recommend Michael and his team to friends in the future. If you are looking to sell your condo or townhouse, definitely call Michael. You won’t be disappointed!!!

Michelle London

Michael helped us sell our Liberty Village condo this past summer and he was a pleasure to work with! He is very professional and he knows the market extremely well. He delivers on what he promises and is very responsive and knowledgeable. He also provides great marketing materials that looked very impressive. I would not hesitate to work with him again!

Derrick Robinson

From the moment we Michael, I wanted to use is team. My wife on the other hand wanted to meet other agents. After meeting a few other agents, she quickly realized that Michael was the right fit for us. We turned over the process to Michael and he bounced his ideas with us. I’m still mesmerized with the staging of our home. With the home stages it was sold within days of being posted and over asking price. Thank you for the amazing service Michael. First impressions are lasting ones.

Greg Sutherland

Michael has been my realtor since 2013. I originally hired him to find tenants for my rental property in Liberty Village and he educated me on the most important aspects of identifying prospective tenants. He is very knowledgeable regarding the condo market in Toronto and specifically Liberty Village. I decided to list my condo this summer (2018) and because of my trust in Michael and his proven track record, I did not hesitate to sign with him and have him handle the sale of my property. Michael provided staging services and made the condo look like a million bucks. He made the process smooth and worry free and had the property sold quickly and for top dollar. I would not hesitate to recommend Michael to anyone that asks.

Kitty L

We recently sold our loft with Michael (April 2018), and it was an absolute pleasure to work with him. He is thoroughly knowledgeable about our neighbourhood (Liberty Village) and knew the market really well. Michael was professional and offered great advice throughout the entire process. From start to finish, we knew we hired the right agent! We highly recommend Michael and his team.

Troy McCartan

This is the email I sent to Michael and his team after we closed our condo in Liberty Village for well above our asking price and well beyond our initial expectations “Thanks Michael. Jessica and I are more than pleased with the choice to work with you. You were professional , understanding and most importantly a great negotiator on our behalf! We would recommend you to anyone who needs a true professional. Thanks again”

Andrew Walker

it was great working with Michael and his team. Professional and responsive.

Leo K

Michael and his team were great!! Condo was sold - Everything was done professionally, by the time frame requested by me, for the price that I was looking for!! Highly recommend him, especially if you are selling in liberty village and downtown!

ashley hayman

My condo sold in a week for well over asking! Not only that, but Michael offered many other complementary services including cleaning and a stager.

sam J

I listed my bachelor apartment with Michael located at Liberty village a couple of months ago. I had a fantastic experience dealing with a true professional. He staged the unit and it sold very fast. He keeps you informed throughout the whole process. I was happy with his service and recommended him.

Wayne Burgess

Sara has an amazing team. I was in the market for an investment condo. Sara's knowledge of the market and relationships got me great options within 24 hours and we had an amazing deal done in 48. You can't go wrong with Sara!!!

Alyssa Martin

Sara helped my boyfriend and I find our first place together. I let Sara know what our must-have's were and she knew exactly which buildings would suit our needs. Her expertise on each and every building in Liberty Village was quite impressive. Sara was always there to answer any questions we had and checked in with us even after we moved in. Working with Sara was unlike any other experience I've had with past realtors. She is knowledgeable, professional and very attentive. And truly a Liberty Village specialist. We couldn't be happier with her services!

Mustafa Bhutto

Sara is amazing! The whole process was quick and easy. The advice was real just like you would get from a close friend or a family member which made my decision easier as there was a lot of trust. She even recommended a nice lawyer. The follow up was genuine and continued even after closing. It's been over a year since my purchase and I couldn't be happier with my decision.

Michael is true professional. He is the best guy for selling a condo Down Town Toronto especially Liberty village. I was in touch with him for more than a year to sell me condo in Liberty Village and always got right advice with no pressure selling of any kind. Being very experience real investor I tried selling the condo through other discount real estate agent but with no success or right offer. Once he took over I got $95K more than last best offer I got from other agent. Staging was super excellent and the way he presented my Condo on his local website was mind blowing. Thanks Michael....
