Aurora vs Newmarket: Where Should You Buy in 2026?

Posted Sep 24th, 2026 in General

Newmarket is the cheaper of the two on average, $1,048,321 against Aurora's $1,105,004 in August 2026, and the gap is much wider on detached homes, where Aurora's $1,467,448 average runs $321,395 above Newmarket's $1,146,053. Those averages reflect the mix of homes that sold, so they are not like-for-like measures of individual home values. Start with Newmarket real estate if the lower detached average suits your budget, or Aurora real estate if its housing and shorter scheduled train exampl...

Vaughan August 2026 market Update

Vaughan August 2026 market Update

Posted Sep 20th, 2026 in General, Market Updates

Vaughan's real estate market moved in two directions this August. The average sale price climbed 2.0% year over year to $1,234,758, but the median price actually fell 2.6% to $1,148,750. That gap tells you something important about where buyers were spending their money. Detached homes, which accounted for half of all sales, saw their average jump 4.2%, and that higher-priced mix pulled the overall average upward even as most other segments slipped. Meanwhile, the sales-to-new-listings ratio...

York Region August2026 Market Update

Posted Sep 19th, 2026 in General, Market Updates

Markham's sales-to-new-listings ratio crossed 40%, the line TRREB uses to separate a buyer's market from a balanced one. It is the first municipality in York Region to get there, and it did not get there because of a sales surge. It got there because supply keeps thinning out while buyers keep showing up. That same pattern played out across the region at different speeds, pushing the overall SNLR to 35.8%, its eighth straight monthly increase.

Markham August 2026 Market Update

Posted Sep 17th, 2026 in General, Market Updates

The sales-to-new-listings ratio hit 40.3% this month—marking the first time any municipality in York Region has touched that 40% threshold in over two years. Total sales jumped 17.5% compared to last August while new listings dropped 8%, pulling active inventory below 1,100 homes for the first time since the spring of 2023. We saw the average price land at $1,208,692, up 6.4% year over year, while the median barely budged. There's a very specific reason why those two numbers diverged, and it...

Newmarket August 2026 Market Update

Newmarket August 2026 Market Update

Posted Sep 15th, 2026 in General, Market Updates

Newmarket had a quietly strong August. The average sale price hit $1,048,321, which is up 5.3% from last year and marks the second consecutive month above the million-dollar line. The median landed at exactly $1,000,000 for the first time in months. And those numbers arrived on the exact same sales volume as last August: 83 transactions, identical to August 2025. These price gains aren't being inflated by a spike in luxury sales or a sudden rush of activity; they're the product of steady, or...

Richmond Hill August 2026 Market Update

Posted Sep 14th, 2026 in General, Market Updates

Active listings plunged 15.4% compared to last August—the sharpest drop in available homes anywhere in York Region. Under normal conditions, a drop in supply that steep would start pushing the market back toward sellers. But right now, it hasn't. Our Sales-to-New-Listings Ratio (SNLR) sat at 33.1%, keeping Richmond Hill firmly in buyer's market territory—well below the 40% threshold that signals a balanced market. On top of that, Months of Inventory (MOI) stayed locked at 5.6 months for the ...
