“Homesalescontinuedtobeabovelastyear’slevelsinJuly,whichsuggeststhatmany households have adjusted to higher borrowing costs. With that being said, it does appearthatthesalesmomentumthatweexperiencedearlierinthespringhasstalled somewhat since the Bank of Canada restarted its rate tightening cycle in June. Compounding the impact of higher rates has been the persistent lack of listings for people to purchase compared to previous years,” said Toronto Regional Real Estate Board(TRREB)PresidentPaulBaron.

GTA REALTORS® reported 5,250 sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in July 2023, representing a 7.8 per cent increase compared to July 2022. Over the same period, new listings were also up, but by a greater annual rate of 11.5 per cent. The MLS® Home Price Index Composite benchmark was up by 1.3 per cent year-over-year. The average selling price was also up by 4.2 per cent to $1,118,374 over the same timeframe.
On a seasonally adjusted monthly basis, the number of sales trended lower for the second straight month, whereas new listings trended upward. The seasonally adjusted average selling price edged lower while the MLS® HPI Composite benchmark edged higher.
“Uncertainty surrounding the direction of borrowing costs, jobs and the overall economy has impacted home sales over the last two months. Over the long term, the demand for ownership housing will remain strong on the back of record population growth. However, many homebuyers will continue to be on the sidelines in the short term until the direction of monetary policy and the economy becomes clearer,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer.
“We continue to suffer from a misalignment in public policy as it relates to housing. The federal government is targeting record levels of immigration for the foreseeable future, but we have seen very little tangible progress in creating more ownership and rental housing to accommodate this growth. Population growth is imperative for economic development; however, this growth will be unsustainable if people can’t find an affordable place to live. All three levels of government need to be on the same page to fix this problem,” said TRREB CEO John DiMichele.

Expression of Gratitude!
We have just sold our home at 1 Hurontario. Theresa Baird, who we knew was the best and most successful real estate agent in our area, was the only company that we felt could provide us with the conclusion we required. Since we moved into our condo in 2010, she sent us monthly updates as to rentals and sales, asking prices and sold amounts. We never forgot this.
Initially we agreed on an asking purchase price and although she thought it might be a little high, and she was right, after 9 days we received an acceptable offer at 96% of the asking price. Through her efforts, staging, photos, advertising, widespread use of other real estate areas she got the job done. My wife and I were in the real estate business for 36 years and we know the good and the so-so, we are really satisfied with the efforts of Theresa and her associate Lindsay Meadwell for keeping us informed at every stage in the process. It could not have gone any better. Thanks to you both.
