➕ The Numbers for May are in! ➕

Toronto’s housing market showed signs of strengthening in May, with sales up 3% compared to last year while both new listings and active inventory declined. As available inventory continues to be absorbed, buyers are facing slightly more competition than they were earlier this year.

Lower borrowing costs have helped improve affordability, with the prime rate now sitting at 4.45%, down from 5.00% a year ago. Combined with softer home prices, this has encouraged more buyers to re-enter the market.

The average selling price in Toronto was $1,108,292 in May, down 4% year-over-year. Detached homes saw the largest price adjustment, declining 6% to $1,610,988. Townhouses and condos also experienced price declines of 6% and 5%, respectively, while semi-detached home prices remained stable compared to last year.

While the market continues to favour buyers overall, improving sales activity and declining inventory suggest conditions may be gradually becoming more balanced. Buyers still benefit from increased affordability compared to previous years, while sellers who price strategically are seeing stronger engagement.

With affordability improving and inventory trending lower, the second half of the year could look different from the first. For buyers and sellers alike, understanding today’s opportunities may be just as important as anticipating tomorrow’s market.

➕ The Numbers for April are in! ➕

Toronto’s spring market showed signs of renewed activity in April, with sales increasing 9% year-over-year and new listings trending lower. This suggests conditions tightened during the first full month of spring, even as buyers continued to benefit from available inventory and negotiating flexibility.

Lower prices and slightly improved borrowing conditions have encouraged some buyers back into the market. However, many remain cautious, watching for more certainty around the broader economy and global conditions before making a move.

Across the market, average selling prices remained 5% lower than last year, creating more approachable entry points for buyers who may have been priced out during the peak. While detached prices softened slightly and semi-detached homes saw a modest increase, townhomes and condos experienced more noticeable declines—highlighting where affordability has improved most.

For sellers, pricing strategy remains critical. Buyers are active, but they are still value-conscious and selective. For buyers, this may be an important window to take advantage of improved affordability before conditions tighten further.

For now, this remains a market where preparation, pricing, and expert guidance matter more than ever.

Average Toronto home prices by property type in April:

➕Detached $1,668,973 [-2% vs. 2025]

➕Semi-detached $1,286,166 [+2% vs. 2025]

➕Townhouse $958,029 [-6% vs. 2025]

➕Condo $665,507 [-6% vs. 2025]
