It looked like a tent city overnight outside a brand new townhouse development in Mississauga as hundreds of people lined up to get a look at 130 townhouses that went on sale at 8 a.m.
The line-up to buy the Erin Mills units started nearly two weeks ago after people began camping out when they heard about Saturday's release date.
Daniels Corporation, which is selling the units, says it's not surprised at the response because the units are reasonable priced and aimed at people trying to get into the market for the first time.
Daniels has had line-ups for similar developments before. Company officials say the fact that they're still drawing a crowd in the current economy shows the local housing market is still strong.
