Year-ago comparisons use the same area and home type.

Seasonal patterns

How a typical year runs in the GTA, 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 October has 8.7% of the year's sales.

Buy vs rent

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

Rent…loading rents
Down payment
Mortgage rate
Mortgage payment$3,951
Property tax (estimate)$637
Home insurance (estimate)$100
Total to own$4,688

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.

What moves Greater Toronto Area 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.
