Toronto, Vancouver housing still hugely desirable despite recent challenges
Toronto and Vancouver continue to attract attention on the global stage, coming in at 20th and 24th for desirability—largely thanks to their robust economies. Yet, as someone working closely with Toronto buyers and sellers every day, I see firsthand how high housing costs are impacting quality of life scores in both cities. To truly address affordability, Canada would need to build between 430,000 and 480,000 homes each year—a goal we haven’t reached yet. Navigating this landscape, my focus remains on helping clients understand their options, whether it’s a condo downtown or a family home in the suburbs, and providing property evaluations tailored to today’s dynamic market.

Small-Scale Infill Is (Finally) Showing Up In Toronto's Housing Data
We're finally seeing small-scale infill projects—think accessory dwelling units and multiplexes—making a real mark in Toronto’s housing numbers. These types of developments now make up about 10% of housing starts across Canada. This growth is largely thanks to recent zoning reforms, which have encouraged more diverse housing options and helped balance out the drop in single-detached home construction. As someone who focuses on Toronto real estate, I always keep a close eye on how these shifts impact both buyers and sellers. Understanding these trends is key to navigating our evolving market with confidence.

Toronto Home Prices Edge Lower
In my work tracking Toronto’s real estate pulse, I’ve noticed a subtle shift: home prices dipped just 0.1% month-over-month in Mid-Q3. This isn’t a dramatic drop—more of a brief pause in the ongoing market rhythm. Year-over-year, resales were down 2.1%, so activity is a bit quieter compared to last year, even as prices remain steady. The latest figures suggest Toronto’s market is adjusting at its own pace—not rushing into sudden changes, but gradually finding new balance. As someone who specializes in helping clients evaluate homes and condos across Toronto, I see this as part of a broader pattern: Mid-Q3 acted as a moment of stability, with only a marginal dip in prices. Looking forward, many expect this stabilization to continue through 2026 and into 2027, though the recovery will likely vary across neighborhoods. For buyers and sellers alike, understanding these subtle trends is key to making confident decisions.

Toronto Ranks 20th Worldwide
Toronto continues to capture global attention, recently securing the 20th spot among 1,000 cities in a 2026 worldwide index. The city’s strong economic base and wealth of human capital keep it comfortably within the top 25. However, the same index highlights a challenge we know all too well: housing affordability. Toronto’s median multiple reached about 7.5 in a 2026 housing study, placing us among the least affordable major markets surveyed. In fact, Toronto residents are spending a larger share of their income on housing than in nearly every other city worldwide. Slowing housing starts are expected to persist through 2026, so the supply gap—and the affordability challenge—remains a central topic for anyone navigating the local market. As someone specializing in Toronto real estate and property evaluation, I see these trends firsthand and know how important it is to stay informed as the market evolves.

Can Toronto Finally Turn the Corner in 2027?
Looking ahead to 2027, Toronto's real estate market sits at an interesting crossroads. After a period of correction, listings remain high—meaning buyers still have more room to negotiate than we've seen in years. TD is forecasting an improvement for Ontario's housing conditions as we move further into 2027, following a softer 2026. For those considering a move or investment, the prospect of lower borrowing costs could help transactions pick up again. It's worth noting, though, that the supply of condos will continue to shape how quickly the market recovers. At this stage, prices are expected to find their footing and stabilize before we see any strong upward momentum—so don't expect a return to the frenzied growth of the pandemic era just yet. As someone who specializes in Toronto homes and condos, I always keep a close eye on these shifts to help my clients make confident, informed decisions.

Single-Family Homes Enjoy Stable Market with Steady Demand
August brought a noticeable cooling to the Greater Toronto Area market, especially for single-family homes. Only 2% of neighborhoods saw overbidding last month, while a significant 79% of properties sold under asking. The trend was even more pronounced for single-family homes (95%) and condos (98%), reflecting how much buyer competition has softened. As someone who specializes in Toronto real estate and property evaluation, I’m keeping a close eye on these shifts to help clients understand what this means for their next move—whether selling, buying, or simply tracking the market.

Fall 2026 Housing Supply Report
The latest data on Canada’s housing supply gap tells an important story for Toronto and other major cities: while Calgary and Edmonton are making progress, our local market continues to face a shortage. Slower construction is outpacing the drop in demand, and that has real implications for affordability—something every buyer and renter feels. Most new builds are rentals, which is good news for tenants, but the lack of new condos means fewer ownership opportunities for those looking to invest in their own place. As someone focused on Toronto real estate, I see firsthand how increasing new starts and investing in infrastructure aren’t just numbers—they’re essential steps toward a healthier, more accessible market for everyone.

Unique Home Type Offers Affordable Opportunities in GTA
In the current Greater Toronto Area market, we're seeing notable shifts—average home prices have dipped by 2.7% to $993,410, and condos are now averaging $617,593. What stands out most is the steeper drop for small condos under 500 sq ft, which are depreciating at twice the rate of other home types. With an oversupply of investor-focused units, many condos are also selling below their listed price. As someone who specializes in evaluating Toronto houses, condos, and unique properties, I keep a close eye on these trends to help clients navigate their options wisely.
