June Toronto Real Estate Market Stats: Up 14% since January (2023)
Welcome to our latest market update! It's hard to believe that we're already halfway through 2023. The Toronto real estate market continues to be dynamic and exciting. In the GTA, residential real estate prices have seen a significant 14% increase since January 2023.
Despite the rise in prices, the demand for real estate remains high. Although June 2023 experienced a slight drop in the number of transactions and average prices compared to May 2023, this can be attributed to the uncertainty surrounding the Bank of Canada's future decisions on inflation and interest rates, as well as the seasonal dips that typically occur during this time of year.
According to the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB), sales in the GTA were up 16.5% to 7,481 in June 2023 compared to the same period last year. However, the number of active listings decreased by 12.3% during this time. The increase in demand coupled with the decrease in supply has led to tighter market conditions this June, resulting in an average selling price of $1,182,120, representing a 3.2% increase compared to last year.
TRREB President Paul Baron emphasizes, "The demand for ownership housing is stronger than last year, despite higher borrowing costs. However, uncertainty surrounding the Bank of Canada's outlook on inflation and interest rates, along with a persistent lack of inventory, likely sidelined some willing buyers who couldn't find a home that met their needs. It's simple: you can't buy what isn't available."
