Jason Walker Real Estate in Toronto

Home buyers continued to benefit from substantial choice in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) resale market in February 2025. Home sales last month were down in comparison to the same period last year, while listing inventory remained high, providing substantial negotiating power for homebuyers. “Many households in the GTA are eager to purchase a home, but current mortgage rates make it difficult for the average household income to comfortably cover monthly payments on a typical property. Fortunately, we anticipate a decline in borrowing costs in the coming months, which should improve affordability,” said TRREB President Elechia Barry-Sproule. “On top of lingering affordability concerns, home buyers have arguably become less confident in the economy. Uncertainty about our trade relationship with the United States has likely prompted some households to take a wait and see attitude towards buying a home. If trade uncertainty is alleviated and borrowing costs continue to trend lower, we cou...

Spending time and money on checkups throughout the year might seem like a bore, but we guarantee you’ll wish you had if you end up with a broken furnace mid-winter. Here are our top tips for home maintenance plus some pointers for letting professionals give your furnace a once over. Replace filters Filters protect your furnace from dirt, debris and other things that can clog up the airflow. But, like all filters, they need to be routinely changed or maintained to ensure that they are effective. Every three months is a good rule of thumb for changing or cleaning (depending on the kind you have) furnace filters. However, if you have pets or any allergies or respiratory conditions, we recommend doing it more regularly. Check the thermostat If you’ve noticed any inaccuracies or functionality issues with your thermostat – or even if you haven’t – it’s a good idea to do a quick manual once over. Making sure that your furnace is turned off, check all wiring connections to ensure there...

The Toronto Regional Real Estate Board’s (TRREB) Market Outlook and Year in Review report reveals that a well-supplied housing market will keep average annual home price growth at the rate inflation, with the average selling price increasing moderately in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) over the course of the year. “A growing number of homebuyers will take advantage of lower borrowing costs as we move toward the 2025 spring market, resulting in increased transactions and a moderate uptick in average selling prices in 2025. However, the positive impact of lower mortgage rates could be reduced, at least temporarily, by the negative impact of trade disruptions on the economy and consumer confidence,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer. For 2025, TRREB forecasts: – A total of 76,000 home sales in 2025, up by 12.4 per cent over 2024. Lower borrowing costs coupled with ample supply will improve affordability and prompt more buyers to move off the sidelines. – The average selling pri...
