Home sales increased on a year-over-year basis in April 2026, while the supply of listings trended lower. This suggests that overall market conditions in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) tightened during the first full month of spring. Despite tighter market conditions, selling prices edged lower on average compared to last year, as buyers continued to benefit from ample choice and negotiating power.

Greater Toronto Area (GTA) resale housing market conditions tightened in March 2026 in comparison to last year. Sales were up year-over-year, while new listings were down. Selling prices were lower compared to March 2025 helping with affordability moving into the spring market.

“It’s encouraging to see an uptick in March home sales compared to last month and last year. This suggests that an increasing number of GTA households are looking to take advantage of improved affordability as we move into the spring market. Positive news on trade and geopolitical issues would help improve consumer confidence and home sales in the months ahead,” said TRREB President Daniel Steinfeld.

“Buyers continued to benefit from substantial negotiating power on price across major market segments in the last month. This explains why benchmark and average selling prices were down year-over-year. However, if market conditions continue to tighten, as they did in March, selling prices could start levelling off as we move through the remainder of 2026,” said TRREB Chief Information Officer Jason Mercer.

On a month-over-month seasonally adjusted basis selling prices remained relatively flat, with the MLS® HPI Composite edging down and the average selling price edging up compared to February 2026.

Greater Toronto Area (GTA) resale housing market conditions tightened in February 2026 compared to February 2025. While sales were down year-over-year, new listings declined by a greater annual rate.

On a month-over-month seasonally adjusted basis both the MLS® HPI Composite and the average selling price were down compared to January 2026 figures.

“Many would-be homebuyers are waiting for selling prices to level off before moving into the market. If new listings continue to trend lower through the spring, competition between homebuyers will increase, supporting home prices and a recovery in sales,” said TRREB President Daniel Steinfeld.

“There is substantial pent-up demand in the GTA ownership market, with more than 100,000 buyers holding off on making a home purchase. Buyers are waiting for selling prices to level off and for positive news on the trade front. Once we see both, there could be substantial momentum driving home sales in the second half of this year and into 2027,” said TRREB Chief Information Officer Jason Mercer.

Greater Toronto Area (GTA) home sales, new listings, and average selling price were down compared to a year earlier in November 2024. Intending homebuyers remained on the sidelines awaiting more positive economic news.

“There are many GTA households who want to take advantage of lower borrowing costs and more favourable selling prices. What they need most is confidence in their long-term employment outlook. Fortunately, we saw encouraging news on jobs and the broader economy in November. If this positive momentum continues, consumer confidence will strengthen, and more people will be in a position to consider purchasing a home in 2026,” said TRREB President Elechia Barry-Sproule.

“November reports on employment and economic growth were much stronger than expected. The Canadian economy may be weathering trade-related headwinds better than expected. More certainty on the trade front coupled with positive economic impacts of recently announced infrastructure projects could improve homebuyer confidence moving forward,” said TRREB Chief Information Officer Jason Mercer.
