Toronto Home Sales Drop Most in Eight Years
Average prices dropped 14 percent in the last three months across the Toronto region to C$793,915, reflecting fewer sales of large homes. That compares with a 1 percent rise over the same period last year. Deals for single-family homes in Toronto and its surrounding regions fell 45 percent and average prices dropped 12 percent from April to C$1.06 million.
Even with the slowdown, the average detached home is still above C$1 million in the city and surrounding region, with prices up 7.8 percent in June. The composite benchmark price, which reflects the cost of a typical home, rose 25 percent in June from a year earlier, though it declined 1.3 percent on the month, the first drop since August 2014.
