Condo Market: Toronto Condos Appreciated by 5.6% Over the Year

Compared to the third quarter of 2018, the average selling price of Condominiums in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) in Q3 2019 have appreciated by 5.8%, leading to a new average selling price of $584,564. With Toronto Condos increasing a little over 5.6% to reach a new average selling price of $628,074.

According to the latest report from TREB, this price appreciation is mainly due to tighter marketing conditions as a result of the lower number of listings compared to Q3 of 2018. A playing factor could be the decreased number of new condominiums completed so for this year, since this could lead to less investor-owned units coming up for sale.

Elsewhere across the GTA, the average selling price of Condominiums also increased, the Peel Region by an astonishing 12.4% , and 8.8% in the York Region, leading to a new average selling price of $469,406 and $530,577 respectively.
