A note on prices in the 416: there was a reduction of -9.7 per cent from December 2023 to January 2024, and prices were down -2.8 per cent year-over-year. I’ve been seeing some interesting new properties come to market in and around the Annex recently. Home sales in January 2024 increased by over one-third compared to January 2023.

To get the most favourable results when selling luxury real estate, it is crucial to be up-to-date on current market trends, pricing strategies, and in-demand lifestyle features. Understanding the mindset of the luxury buyer means presenting more than a property, rather a complete experience.
A quick look back at a selection of recent deals: all the hard work and hustle is worthwhile when I make my clients happy and help them fulfil their dreams! At the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about.
Home sales in the City of Toronto were nearly even (+0.05%) and there was a slight increase in average home prices (+2.4% across detached, semis and condo apartment segments) from the same time last year. Although new listings were up +14.4% from last August, TRREB notes that overall listings are down substantially compared to last year, when looking at 2023 thus far.
: In July, we saw the traditional summer slowdown in the Toronto market, with sales down -33.4% and new listings down -11.6% from the previous month. Meanwhile, sales were up +2.9% and new listings were up by +16.5% from last year, representing a reduction in the supply crunch. Year-over-year prices in the City remained somewhat flat for semis (down by -0.9%), and condo apartments (up +1.3%), however prices were higher by +8.3% detached homes. Also of note in July, detached homes averaged just 15 days on the market vs the overall average of 24 days across home types.
Once again last month, we saw sales outpace new inventory in Toronto real estate by a substantial margin. Market conditions continue to remain tight, with June 2023 representing an increased supply crunch relative to last year. Year-over-year, sales were up +13.76 per cent, with new listings up just under +1.0 per cent in the City. Prices rose +2.78 per cent for detached homes, +4.85 per cent for semis, while condo prices remained virtually even. Month-over-month, overall prices were down -4.2 per cent.
Sales continue to rise, yet supply is not keeping up to demand. Year-over-year, sales were up +22.6 per cent and New Listings were down -16.6 per cent. This is bringing increasing competition among buyers, causing prices to continue their upward shift across all segments in the City of Toronto. Between April and May, prices increased 5.5 per cent for detached homes, 5.5 per cent for semi-detached homes and 4.4 per cent for condos.
Pricing took an upward turn in the City of Toronto last month, across all segments. Price increases for detached homes and semis were up 4.6% and 5% respectively. Demand is up relative to supply, resulting in greater competition among buyers.
Competition between buyers is on the rise. For the first time in 10 months, the average sale price was above the average list price in the GTA. In addition, sales accounted for an increased share of listings compared to a year ago.
For the City of Toronto, year-over-year sales volume and average selling prices were down by 32.2 per cent and 17.4 per cent respectively. However, it is interesting to note, between January and February new listings rose by 10 per cent, and the average price for the combined categories of detached homes, semis and condo apartments was up 11.2 per cent.
The current report by TRREB points out that while short-term borrowing costs increased again in January, negotiated medium-term mortgage rates, like the five-year fixed rate, have started to trend lower. Based on the expectation that this trend will continue, affordability could start to improve as the year progresses.
Happy New Year! 2022 has been an eventful year. As always, the most rewarding experiences are connecting with people at such an important time in their lives, and being able to offer them support and advice. On top of that, I’m grateful that I get to live and work in Toronto. Our city is a welcoming place where culture, innovation and community thrive.
The downward trend in home prices experienced in the spring and early summer has flattened over the past three months, in part due to the persistent lack of inventory … how to the trends and numbers affect you?
