As forecast in my May and April market reports, June’s resale housing data points to a positive upward trajectory – it’s positive, but it’s also mild. It’s not only mild but also very uneven.
On the positive side, June saw 6,770 reported sales, 9.4 percent higher than the 6,191 reported sales a year ago. More positive still, June’s sales numbers have driven 2026’s year-to-date numbers past the year-to-date sales numbers for the same period of 2025. At the mid-point of 2025, the Toronto and Region Real Estate Board reported that 30,844 homes had changed hands. As of the end of this June, 31,149 buyers will be enjoying their new homes.

In this June market update, Chris Kapches, CEO of Chestnut Park Real Estate, examines the latest Toronto and GTA housing data and explains why the market continues to show modest yet positive improvement as we cross the midpoint of 2026.
Chris Kapches explores a highly uneven marketplace driven primarily by affordability. While sales activity is strengthening, a significant price gap between regions has shifted momentum, leading to a surge in activity in the 905 area and a growing focus on the affordable condominium sector.
