(2017-05-21)He runs a $250 billion (USD) global real estate and infrastucture empire but lives just 7 doors away from a Pizza Hut and Starbucks in a smallish semi-detached midtown Toronto home with his partner Lonti Ebers. Like the billionaire couple's Tribeca loft in New York City their Toronto home is modest compared to those of their peers. Bruce Flatt is CEO of Brookfield Asset Management a global asset manager and Lonti Ebers is a well known art advisor, philanthropist and socialite. Their 3 story semi at is in Toronto's Summerhill neighborhood, an upscale location but compared to nearby Rosedale and Forest Hill where the who's who of Canada live, Summerhill is rather pedestrian. The house underwent extensive renovations in 2015 and 2016 including a rear addition but even with the addition the house is small at just over 2,700 sq ft. In Toronto's red-hot housing market of early 2017 it would likely be valued in the $4 million (CDN) range. Bruce Flatt has been described as the Warren Buffett of Canada.
