April 2025 Toronto Real Estate Market: Supply, Demand & Price Trends
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.
Overall Toronto Market
Toronto is experiencing a dramatic shift in market dynamics, with sales down 40% from the five-year March average, while inventory has surged 71%, pushing months of supply up 125%. Yet, somewhat surprisingly, benchmark prices are up 10.94% year-over-year, reaching $1,059,500, with a sharp 4.31% month-over-month increase. This disconnect suggests that some buyers are still willing to pay premium prices, but the sheer volume of available inventory points toward a looming market recalibration. If demand doesn’t catch up soon, expect this early price momentum to flatten in the coming months.
Toronto's Detached Homes
Detached homes in Toronto are facing serious headwinds, with sales down 35% and inventory up 71%, contributing to a 124% increase in months of supply. This excess has led to a notable 8.13% price drop month-over-month, and a 0.65% decline year-over-year, dragging the benchmark down to $1,642,700. Despite a 4% rise in new listings, buyers are holding off, likely due to affordability constraints and rate sensitivity. This segment, long seen as a symbol of Toronto’s housing strength, may now be ground zero for price corrections in 2025.
Toronto's Condominiums
Toronto’s condo market is wading through oversupply, with sales down 44%, inventory up 72%, and months of supply ballooning 132%. Despite these headwinds, prices rose 2.72% month-over-month, even as they fell 1.63% year-over-year, landing at $672,100. The modest bounce may reflect renewed interest from investors and first-time buyers, especially with expectations that rates may stabilize. Still, buyers now have the upper hand. Without a rebound in sales activity, further price softness is likely in Q2.
Toronto's Semi-detached homes
Semi-detached homes are showing relative resilience, with sales down 27%, inventory up 64%, and months of supply rising 101%. Despite growing supply, prices have held firm, increasing 2.31% year-over-year and 1.88% month-over-month, bringing the benchmark to $1,288,200. This suggests that demand in this segment—often driven by growing families—is still outpacing other asset classes. If any part of Toronto’s market is weathering the shift well, it’s semis, offering a potential safe haven for both buyers and sellers amid wider volatility.
