Stat Alert🚨

March stats are out!

Looks like activity is finally picking up! Month over Month we saw an increase of 30% in sales quantity. This makes sense, as the weather warms, more buyers are out, and they are making their moves. Overall, average prices across GTA are fairly flat from last month, and down by 6.7% year over year. The number of new listings entering MLS has dropped by 16.7% year over year. Welll normally see new listings pick up in April/ May.

I saw a lot more action in the market and on my own listings for sale. There has been more offers coming in, but many are looking for a good deal and it is taking a lot more back and forth between the buyer/sellers to land at a fair price. Many of my buyers are back on the hunt for their new homes, and there are a lot of homes to pick from depending on your search criteria.

Overall, we’re seeing very fair prices coming from the sellers. And if you find a seller that has some pressure to sell, often they sell for a bit under market values. That being said, not all sellers are willing to come down. Some of my buyers have been seeing some listings sit for long, and at prices far too high!

Advice for the buyers, don’t be afraid to shoot your shot at what value you think makes sense. Advice for the sellers, don’t get offended at the initial offers that come in, but work to bring them up and close the gap! If you’re seeing the prices in your area fluctuate, be sure to act quick with your pricing and have it reflect market amounts.

Lets see what happens this month! 👀👀

Stat Alert🚨

February stats are out!

Month over month numbers look higher. Total number of sales transactions are up, and average sale prices are up! However, when you compare the numbers to Feb 2025, we are still down in both categories + number of new listings hitting the market is also lower.

Generally, there are a lower number of new listings during the winter months anyways. TRREB polls are showing that there are less people planning to list their homes in 2026, and they are predicting that this lower supply + pent up demand to buy might result in an increase in competition and price. In MY opinion, I don’t think so. I don’t have a crystal ball, but there are so many other factors at play.

With so much market/ economy uncertainty, and all these trade talks/ international conflicts, I can see those buyers on the sidelines wait out even longer. I’m predicting prices and market activity to stay fairly flat as we approach the end of the Winter season. We should still see a surge in new listing activity in April (beginning of spring), and hopefully we see more transactions that are fair to both buyers and sellers!

Currently, I do see a few ‘good deals’, especially for those properties that are vacant, looking for short closings, Power of Sale, Estate Sales etc. Financial pressures may also result in sellers going lower than what current fair market values support, but not all homes are in that situation! Most sellers who have the time to wait, and a good home on their hands will still get market values or close to it!

Side note: Power of Sale homes sounds good, but it’s not always a sure thing! Did you know that in every power of sale deal, there’s a clause that the lender will input to give the original borrower an opportunity to pay off the loan and keep the house? Even up until the day of closing. So even if you have a firm deal accepted, there is always a chance that you don’t close and have to start your search all over again!

Stay warm! ❄️⛄️⛷️🏂

SOLD ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️⠀

Congrats to my sellers! 🥳🏠💪

SOLD IN 6 DAYS! (But we had to list it twice, and do 2 price changes). Reality of the condo/ condo town house market: activity is slow. We had to adjust our price to the market conditions as things shifted during the fall, but we got it done!

Congrats to the buyers and sellers!

Sold in about 1 week! Condo market was slow, but we physically staged it to showcase how the space can be used. AND we virtually staged the den to show additional options for the buyer.

Congrats to the buyers and sellers!
