Toronto Real Estate Market – October 2024

Real Estate Market Report | Toronto | October 2024

Prices Cool as Supply Outpaces Demand

Home buyers continue to purchase in Toronto. Many sellers seem to be sitting back to see what is happening to interest rates, however, the homes on the market are moving. 

We help provide home buyers and sellers with the data they need to be successful. When you have access to accurate and relevant data, you can be more confident in setting the price of your home and selling it or buying at the right price. 

With many important factors to consider (what kind of home you have, what community etc.), it’s important to look specifically at what the housing market is doing in your neighbourhood.  

Bōdesellers are more successful and actually make more money, on average, than the rest of the market. We are also here to make sure you have the information you need to make the decisions that are right for YOU!

So what's happening in the Toronto real estate market as of October 2024?

Let’s start with a Macroeconomics view 

To understand what’s happening in the real estate market you have to look at supply and demand.

The best proxies for supply and demand are:

Supply

New supply: New Listings (i.e. the number of homes recently listed for sale)

Total supply: Inventory (i.e. the total number of homes listed for sale)

Demand

Sales (i.e. the number of homes recently sold)

 

Supply & Demand

Months of Supply (i.e. the number of months it would take to sell all current inventory at the current rate of sale)

 

These metrics are the best indicators of the health of the real estate market. Let’s look at what they show us.

Toronto’s housing market in October 2024 remains frail, with softening demand ironically continuing to push prices upward. Total sales fell to below 2,000, a 26% drop from the last five Septembers. In spite of the weakening demand, average price increased by 7.3% year-over-year to $1.11 million. Inventory continues to climb at just over five months of supply, creating attractive conditions for buyers across all segments. As a result, buyers are facing fewer bidding wars and more choices.

With inventory high and demand softening, competition is limited, particularly in suburban areas, but still giving an opportunity for quick sales and moderately rising prices.

Despite significantly better inventory levels and just under seven months of supply, demand continues to cool, driving moderate price decreases in this more affordable segment.

Demand for attached homes continues to slow, driven by buyers opting to try and find more space at a lower price point. Inventory is abundant, setting record highs against the last 5 Septembers.
