York Region Market Update: Prices Up, Listings Down — Here’s the Truth

York Region saw a surprising 4.6% price increase this month — but the story behind it is not what the headlines suggest. In this market update, we break down exactly what is driving the numbers, why listings dropped 13.9%, and what this means for buyers and sellers heading into the next cycle.

You will learn:
• Why prices rose even with flat demand
• How fewer listings created a “phantom price jump.”
• What buyers should do with this temporary leverage
• How sellers can position their homes to win in a shifting market

This is the clearest look at what is actually happening in York Region right now.

📉 New Listings: down 13.9%
📈 Prices: up 4.6%
🏡 Sales: essentially flat

When fewer sellers list their homes, the numbers shift — even when buyer demand stays cautious. If the same number of listings had hit the market as last month, we wouldn't be discussing a price increase at all.

In this video, we cover:
