Seasonal patterns

How a typical year runs in York Region, from 2013–2025 sales. A history, not a forecast.

Bars: the average share of a year's sales that happened in each month. Under each month: how its median sold price sat against that year's own trend (the median over 13 years) — partly the season, partly which homes sell then. In a typical year September has 8.3% of the year's sales. Pattern shown for York Region.

Buy vs rent

Estimated monthly cost to own at Cornell's median sold price, next to what homes are listed for rent at today.

Own$5,121per month, estimated
Rent…loading rents
Down payment
Mortgage rate
Mortgage payment$4,323
Property tax (estimate)$698
Home insurance (estimate)$100
Total to own$5,121

Assumptions: 20% down, 4.99% for 25 years compounded semi-annually (as Canadian mortgages are), property tax at 0.9% of the price a year, home insurance about $100 a month; no condo fee. Rents are asking rents of whole homes listed for lease today, not signed leases; a bedroom count with fewer than 10 listings isn't shown. An estimate to compare the market, not advice for your situation.

For scale: 0% of these homes had a lease listed in the 120 days before they sold — a lease that the sale cannot explain. The gap between the two is the signal.

Counts investors and owners who kept the home as a rental; the two cannot be told apart from listing data. Sales to 2026-08-30.

What moves Cornell prices

Two forces sit behind almost every price move: the cost of borrowing and the pace of inflation. When rates fall and inflation cools, buying power rises and prices tend to firm; when they climb, the market cools.
