Real Estate Market Report | May 2026 | GTA Market Rebalancing

The GTA resale market continues its gradual recovery despite ongoing economic uncertainty and geopolitical pressures.

Two encouraging trends emerged in May:
✔️ Higher sales activity
✔️ Shorter time on market

In this report, Chris Kapches explores:
• Why buyers and sellers remain cautious
• How mortgage stress tests are helping homeowners navigate renewals
• Why the 416 continues to outperform the 905
• What May 2019 tells us about today’s affordability challenges
• Why 416 semi-detached homes remain a standout performer

While uncertainty persists, market conditions are trending in a positive direction, with further improvement expected through the second half of 2026 and into 2027.

Real Estate Market Report | April 2026 | Understanding the Inventory Paradox

In this April market update, Chris Kapches, CEO of Chestnut Park Real Estate, explains why the current data reveals a much more positive trend than many observers suggest.

In this report, Chris Kapches analyzes:
• Why the "Inventory Paradox" is making the market look more crowded than it actually is.
• The impact of the Bank of Canada holding rates for the fourth consecutive month.
• How the "Post-Pandemic" shift is favoring the 416 over the 905 regions.
• The potential for a "power of its own" rebound if geopolitical stability returns by June.

With sales pace currently on track to exceed 2025 totals, we may be approaching the first year-over-year growth milestone in years.

Real Estate Market Report | March 2026 | The Good, the Bad & the Peculiar

In this March market update, Chris Kapches, CEO of Chestnut Park Real Estate, analyzes the latest trends shaping the Toronto and GTA housing market.

Chris Kapches describes the current landscape as an 'arcade', where geopolitical factors, shifting inventory levels, and economic variables are all bouncing into the resale market at once.

Despite the decline in average prices, the market is showing signs of resilience. Inventory is not flooding the market as many predicted, and demand remains high in central 'hot pockets' like Riverdale and The Beaches.

In this report, Chris Kapches explains:
• Why the 'mortgage renewal cliff' hasn't triggered a surge in forced listings
• How generous amortization rates and improved affordability are keeping sellers in place
• Why certain neighborhoods are still seeing sales prices substantially higher than list prices
• What a return to geopolitical stability could mean for the spring and summer outlook

With sales activity finally trending upward, the coming months will be a pivotal turning point for the Toronto real estate market in 2026.

Toronto Real Estate Market Update | One of the Weakest Februarys in a Decade

In his February 2026 market update, Chris Kapches, CEO of Chestnut Park Real Estate, explains that economic and geopolitical uncertainty is continuing to weigh on buyer and seller confidence in the Greater Toronto Area housing market. Despite slower overall activity and declining prices, the market remains fragmented, with some property types and neighbourhoods still seeing strong demand. As the spring market approaches, the coming months will be critical in determining the direction of Toronto’s real estate market in 2026.

Chestnut Park's CEO Chris Kapches breaks down the January 2026 Toronto Real Estate Market Report.

We are only happy when we forecast something that actually comes to pass, AND it is positive. The majority of real estate analysts and industry pundits had no problem forecasting what was likely to be revealed about the Toronto and Region residential resale market in January, and sadly, they got it right. But no one is happy.
