What is TSW →TSW is the private practice of Tal Shelef and Steven Wagman, operating under RARE Real Estate Inc., Brokerage. The work inside Toronto's high-end residential and commercial markets is run by the partners directly: sourcing off-market opportunities, advising on acquisition and disposition, stewarding properties from first walkthrough to final close. TSW exists to give clients direct partner access — Tal and Steven, on every transaction, end to end.
6200 Yonge Street. A residential land assembly representing TSW's largest commercial transaction to date — closed without a public listing, structured between investor groups already known to the practice. The kind of work that defines how TSW operates: principal-led, off-market by default, structured around the parties who actually need to move. The kind of work that doesn't show up in MLS searches.
More on TSW Commercial →Eleven years of Toronto market analysis and pre-construction expertise. Building-by-building data — cap rates, fee trajectories, builder reputations, floor-plate efficiencies — applied to the investor side of the table. Tal underwrites every property TSW touches, and walks away from the ones that don't pencil.
