High Level Market Overview
In June, there was 2.7 months of supply for all home types on the market, which remains the same as last month. This means that we are currently in a seller’s market, where sellers have more asking power due to the low inventory. Buyers have less negotiation power in this market.
Average Price
Average home prices in Central Toronto vary between $937,000 for the downtown C01 area to over $3.4 million in C12, including prestigious neighbourhoods like the Bridal Path. The overall average price for all areas of Central Toronto is around $1.22 million.
List to Sale Price Ratio
In Central Toronto, properties sold for an average of 102% of list price, up by 2% from last year. Most neighborhoods sell for over the list price, except for C02, C09, and C12 (including Rosedale, Casa Loma, and the Bridlepath), where the list to sale price ratio is around 97%. These upscale areas don’t follow the selling tactic of under pricing to stimulate offers.
Days on Market
The average time for properties to sell in Central Toronto was 16 days in June, 1 day faster than the previous month and the same as last year. Shorter time on the market is good for sellers as it shows high demand and competition, but the optimal time varies based on location, price range, and property type. Most listings now have offer dates, where potential buyers can only make offers on a specific date. It is unclear whether this is a seasonal trend or a lasting one.
Interest Rates
Interest rates have been rising since March 2022. The Bank of Canada increased rates by 0.25% on June 7th, the first hike since January. Mortgage rates are currently between 5-6%. If you are entering the market, check out all available mortgage options.
Market Trend Insights
In June, Central Toronto’s real estate market is stable with an average selling price of $1.220 million for all home types. Sales decreased to 1353 and new listings decreased to 3055. However, the amount of days on the market remained the same. The uncertainty surrounding the Bank of Canada’s outlook on inflation and interest rates affected home sales, and lack of inventory discouraged some buyers.
