Toronto home sales rise the most in 10 months, prices dip

TRREB said lower prices and tighter inventory helped lift transactions, while the benchmark home price fell 6.7% and new listings dropped 18.9%.

  • The Greater Toronto Area recorded 6,583 home sales in May, marking the third consecutive month of sales growth with a 6.3 per cent increase compared with last year.
  • Fewer homeowners listed properties, with new listings falling 18.9 per cent to 17,698 year-over-year, while total active inventory in the GTA decreased 13.3 per cent to 26,927 units.
  • Average selling prices fell 4.6 per cent year-over-year to $1,069,700, while the composite benchmark price dropped 6.7 per cent amid what observers describe as a "skittish market."
  • Buyers retain "substantial negotiating power" through the spring, TRREB chief information officer Jason Mercer said, noting prices remain 32.6 per cent below the spring 2022 peak.
  • Regional trends show varied price declines, with York's index falling 9.5 per cent and Peel's index decreasing 7.6 per cent year-over-year, while condo prices in both areas dropped more than 10 per cent.
