After years of remote work dominating the conversation, one thing is becoming clear: the return-to-office trend is quietly reshaping the Toronto real estate market — especially condos and rentals.
The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) housing market continued to soften toward the end of 2025, with average and benchmark prices trending downward year-over-year. Transaction activity remains subdued as economic uncertainty and affordability challenges persist.
If you follow real estate or financial news, interest rates dominate the conversation. Every announcement triggers bold headlines, urgent predictions, and sweeping statements about what homeowners should do next.
As we step into 2026, real estate markets — especially in Toronto — look markedly different than in the recent past. Gone are the double-digit price increases and competitive bidding wars that defined much of the last decade. Instead, the market is entering a period of stability, adjustment, and opportunity — but only for those paying attention to the right metrics.

The Toronto real estate market today is not defined by extremes. It is defined by realism.
Buyers are careful. Sellers must be strategic. Investors are thinking longer-term. This environment rewards those who understand the data, the timing, and the nuances of neighbourhood-level trends.
The most important lesson from 2025 isn’t about prices or rates—it’s about perspective.
Markets don’t move in straight lines, and headlines rarely tell the full story. If you want clarity, you need to look beyond the noise and understand how the data applies to your situation.
According to the latest data from the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB), the GTA housing market is showing a clear shift in dynamics. Some of the key take-aways.
When most people think of the real estate market, the spring and fall seasons usually come to mind as the “prime” times to sell. But what about the holiday season? If you’re considering selling your Toronto home during the holidays, you may be surprised to learn that this window—though less crowded—can offer unique advantages for motivated sellers. With the right strategy, your listing can stand out and attract serious buyers eager to make a move before year-end.
For years, our philosophy has been simple: real estate is a long-term play—and every purchase is an investment. Seasonality in Toronto doesn’t change that truth; it amplifies it. Winter tends to bring fewer buyers and slower activity, which can create pockets of value for investors who know how to read the market and negotiate accordingly.
I just purchased my most recent investment condo in Calgary because I strongly believe that it will be the next city to JUMP in price as tech jobs and international money start to flow in in.
