Are offer dates back in Toronto?

78 Willingdon Blvd was thoughtfully prepared for sale, including removing older furniture, staging the home and creating a strong launch.

The result: 5 offers and a sale at $2,300,000.

The right house, in the right location, prepared and marketed properly, can still create serious competition.

Toronto real estate values are hyper-local.

I’m hosting an agents’ open house today at 91 Braemore Gardens, and Wychwood is a great example. There were just 3 sales in September last year versus 8 this September, with 5 selling over asking and the average sale price higher year over year.

The broader market matters, but with freehold homes, the real story is often happening neighbourhood by neighbourhood.

10/06/2026

Toronto home sales fell 9% in September, but buyers may actually be getting less choice.

New listings fell even faster, down 14.4%, while condo apartment prices remained under more pressure than detached homes. The takeaway: this isn’t one Toronto market. Property type, neighbourhood and price point matter more than the headline.

Thinking about buying or selling this fall? DM me and let’s talk.

Thinking about buying in Toronto? DM me and I’ll help you run the numbers.

Home prices have come down, but affordability isn’t just about price. If mortgage rates rise, buyers can lose purchasing power even without home prices moving higher.

The opportunity may still be there. The key is understanding both the price of the home and the cost of the money.

From a US$70M sale in Hillsborough, California to a C$22M Toronto sale by Sotheby's Realty Canada own Jane Zhang , Sotheby's International Realty represented some incredible properties around the world last month.
Great to see Toronto on the global stage.

Over $800,000 over asking in Riverdale.

25 Bowden Street was listed at $2,699,000 and sold for $3,501,000.

The fall market is clearly in full swing, and while Toronto is still selective, the right homes are attracting serious competition.

A boomer boost for larger condos?

JUST SOLD | 1400 Dixie Rd #1510

This 2,370 sq. ft. suite achieved one of the stronger recent price-per-square-foot sales in the building.

It also speaks to an interesting split in the condo market right now. Smaller units are still struggling to find their footing, while larger suites are attracting buyers who want the convenience of condo living without giving up the space they’re used to.

For many downsizers, especially baby boomers, the goal isn’t necessarily to live small. It’s to have less maintenance while still having room for family, entertaining and everyday life.

Not every part of the condo market is behaving the same way.

If you’re thinking about downsizing and want to see some of the better options available right now, DM me “DOWNSIZE” and I’ll send you a few ideas.
