GTA REALTORS Release June 2025 Stats

TORONTO, ONTARIO, July 4, 2025 - Ownership housing affordability continued to improve in June 2025. Average selling prices and borrowing costs remained lower than last year's levels. However, despite some month-over-month momentum, many would-be homebuyers remained on the sidelines due to economic uncertainty.

“The GTA housing market continued to show signs of recovery in June. With more listings available, buyers are taking advantage of increased choice and negotiating discounts off asking prices. Combined with lower borrowing costs compared to a year ago, homeownership is becoming a more attainable goal for many households in 2025,” said Toronto Regional Real Estate (TRREB) President Elechia Barry-Sproule.

Greater Toronto Area (GTA) REALTORS® reported 6,243 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in June 2025 – down by 2.4 per cent compared to June 2024. New listings entered into the MLS® System amounted to 19,839 – up by 7.7 per cent year-over-year.  On a seasonally adjusted basis, June home sales increased month-over-month compared to May 2025. New listings declined compared to May. The monthly increase in sales coupled with the monthly decline in new listings continued the tightening trend experienced during the spring.

The MLS® Home Price Index Composite benchmark was down by 5.5 per cent year-over-year in June 2025. The average selling price, at $1,101,691 was down by 5.4 per cent compared to June 2024. On a month-over-month seasonally adjusted basis, the MLS® HPI Composite and average selling price both edged lower compared to May 2025.

“A firm trade deal with the United States accompanied by an end to cross-border sabre rattling would go a long way to alleviating a weakened economy and improving consumer confidence. On top of this, two additional interest rate cuts would make monthly mortgage payments more comfortable for average GTA households. This could strengthen the momentum experienced over the last few months and provide some support for selling prices,” said TRREB Chief Information Officer Jason Mercer.

“It is important to highlight that housing is not just impacted by economic and financial issues. Canadian residents, both homeowners and renters alike, are increasingly having to deal with the nightmare of violent home invasions and carjackings,” said TRREB CEO John DiMichele. 

"TRREB is encouraged by the recent federal announcement to table a crime bill this Fall introducing stricter bail conditions and sentencing for these disturbing crimes. While this is a good first step by the federal government to strengthen public safety, more is needed, such as working with provinces to increase law enforcement funding and improve capacity and efficiency in the court system,” continued DiMichele.

Getting Your Home Back To School Ready

The countdown is on for back to school. If you have school-aged kids, now the time to prep for the busy days ahead. So, how can you get your home ready for the rush? Organize your entryway with a place to hang jackets and a spot for essentials you might need just before you go (e.g., sunglasses and keys). Declutter clothes and books, donating or selling items your kids have outgrown. Designate a study area with ample space, good lighting, and a comfortable chair. This could be in the kitchen so you can supervise homework while cooking, at the dining table, or at a desk in your child’s bedroom. Also, organize and stock up on school supplies. Organize cupboard space for lunch containers. Create a spot for quick and healthy after-school snacks like fruits and nuts, and reserve space in the fridge for perishable snacks like yogurt, cheese, and cut-up vegetables. Have a spot to hang art and test scores, such as a pegboard, a strong with clothespin, or a classic spot, the fridge. With little...
