Prices Edged up Again in March, Inventory Still Very High
With 4.3 months of inventory, we are still in a balanced market, but not by much. Less than four months of inventory is a Seller’s market and more than six months of inventory is a Buyer’s market. Only a jittery economy and an abundance of new listings are keeping us from edging back into seller’s market territory. With interest rates still low, this window of opportunity for Buyers might be starting to close. If you're thinking of moving this Spring, call me today and I'll help you make this market work for you!

Rates Hold Steady - in the face of a sluggish economy, higher unemployment and sharply rising inflation as a result of the effects of the war in Iran on energy prices, the Bank of Canada elected to monitor all of the above, rather than try to effect any change of its own with an adjustment to interest rates. Normally inflation can trigger rate hikes, while slow growth and higher unemployment point to lower rates. But volatility does not a trend make, and the BoC remains cautiously vigilant for now. The next rate announcement comes in a little over a month, on April 29. Stay tuned...

The Bank of Canada today held its target for the overnight rate at 2.25%, with the Bank Rate at 2.5% and the deposit rate at 2.20%.

GTA HOUSE PRICES DROP BELOW $1M FOR THE 1ST TIME SINCE 2021
It’s no wonder prices continued to drop in January, considering there were 3,082 sales measured against 10,774 new listings and 17,975 active listings. With just under 6 months of inventory, we are on the cusp of moving from a balanced market to a buyer’s market. Sellers seem to have more interest in returning to the market early in 2026 than Buyers, although new listings were down compared to January a year ago. It’s hard to blame Buyers for waiting while prices keep dropping, but we never know when we’re at the bottom until we’re past it. My advice is to focus on what you want to do and what you can afford. Market conditions can change quickly and right now market conditions are better than they’ve been for Buyers in years. But the news isn't all bad for Sellers either, so Call Me Today, to make the most of Your Move!

Interest Rates Hold at 2.25% - Amidst all the volatility and chaos in the geopolitical arena - in Ukraine, Gaza and now in the streets of some of America's largest cities - the Bank of Canada projected calm and confidence in the Canadian economy by holding rates. GDP growth is steady, inflation is on target and unemployment, while elevated, is not setting off alarm bells. The Bank has signaled that it's cycle of correction has concluded and will only adjust rates if economic indicators shift significantly. What this means to Buyers and Sellers of Canadian real estate is clear - the time for waiting is over.

The Bank of Canada today held its target for the overnight rate at 2.25%, with the Bank Rate at 2.5% and the deposit rate at 2.20%.

PRICES, UNIT SALES, NEW & ACTIVE LISTINGS
ALL DOWN SEASONALLY IN DECEMBER
December is typically a quiet month in real estate, which makes the year-over-year numbers much more instructive. Prices were off 5.1%, unit sales down 8.9%, new listings were up slightly, while active listings and days on market were up considerably. Although affordability improved significantly in 2025, buyer confidence did not follow suit. That said, we are in a Balanced Market, not a Buyer's Market in most areas of the GTA, and what we've experienced in the past 4 years has been a Correction, not a Crash. Royal LePage is forecasting a further 1% decline in the freehold market in 2026, which is a tapering off of the downward trend. The condo market still has a way to go before excess inventory is absorbed, and a further decline in prices of 6.4% is expected. It should be noted that this is primarily in the smaller apartment sector of the condo market. Larger units and townhouses are doing relatively well. For more insight into what this means to you in 2026, Call Me Today!
