  • In April 2025, the number of properties sold across the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board’s jurisdiction declined by 23.3 percent compared to the previous year, totaling 5,601 transactions.
  • This decline followed ongoing economic uncertainty and a recent federal election, with many households monitoring the Canada-U.S. Trade relationship.
  • New listings rose 8.1 percent to 18,836 properties while active listings increased 54 percent to 27,386, and the average selling price fell 5.4 percent to $1,107,463.

  • Prices dropped for the third consecutive month and the market may remain soft until economic confidence stabilizes, suggesting a slow housing rebound ahead.
