Toronto's listing picture on November 11

YorkNine's snapshot of active public MLS® listings on November 11, 2026 counted 11,252 homes for sale in Toronto, with 1,177 new for-sale listings in the previous seven days.

These are asking prices of active listings. They are not sale prices and not official board statistics. They show what sellers are asking today, not what buyers have paid.

The backdrop for borrowers shifted recently. On October 28, 2026, the Bank of Canada raised its policy rate by 25 basis points to 2.5 per cent (Bank of Canada). The Bank said further increases may be needed, but that it would move with care given the uncertainty. Its next scheduled announcement is December 9, 2026.

Downtown and the central corridors

Several communities in the data sit along downtown's central spine or close to it. Their listings are mostly condominium apartments in towers, with some older low-rise streets nearby. Streetscapes are dense, with a mix of glass towers, converted older buildings and busy commercial blocks. The TTC subway and streetcar network, restaurants, shops, theatres and offices are close at hand.

  • Waterfront Communities C1: 694 active listings, 80 new in seven days, median asking price $629,000.
  • Church-Yonge corridor: 382 active, 39 new, median $562,450.
  • Niagara: 237 active, 31 new, median $629,000.
  • Bay Street corridor: 217 active, 20 new, median $618,000.

Waterfront Communities C1 carried the largest stock of any community in the data. It also added the most new listings in the week. The Church-Yonge corridor had the lowest median asking price in the group, at $562,450.

Niagara and Waterfront Communities C1 shared the same median asking price of $629,000, even though the waterfront area had a far larger stock for sale. Size of inventory and asking price do not always move together.

The Annex, Willowdale East, Mimico and Islington

Outside the downtown core, the mix of homes shifts and the streets change character.

The Annex is a central neighbourhood of older brick houses, tree-lined side streets and apartment buildings, close to the University of Toronto and the Bloor Street shops. It had 239 active listings and 21 new ones, and its median asking price of $1,199,900 was the highest among the communities in the data. The figure is not broken down by home type here, so it cannot tell us how many houses are in the mix.

Willowdale East lies along the Yonge Street subway line in North York, where condominium towers stand near shops and restaurants. It had 302 active listings, 37 new, and a median asking price of $698,500.

Mimico sits on the lake in Etobicoke, with a mix of waterfront condominiums, low-rise buildings and older streets, and access to the lakeshore trail and GO Transit. It had 278 active listings, 21 new, and a median asking price of $698,900.

Islington-City Centre West, also in Etobicoke, is organized around the Islington subway station on the Bloor-Danforth line, with towers, shops and offices nearby. It had 262 active listings, 30 new, and a median asking price of $609,400.

Reading the table, Waterfront Communities C1 stands out for volume: 694 active listings and 80 new ones in the week. Willowdale East followed among the new-listing counts with 37 added against a stock of 302, while Mimico added 21 against a stock of 278. Measured against its stock, Mimico saw a lighter flow of new supply than Willowdale East, though one week is a small window and should not be read as a trend.

The Annex and the Bay Street corridor each added 21 and 20 new listings respectively, from stocks of 239 and 217. Their asking prices sit far apart, at $1,199,900 and $618,000. That gap is a reminder that a community's price level depends heavily on what kind of homes are listed there.

Across the city, the median home had been listed for 41 days. The data does not give a days-listed figure for each community, so these comparisons cover supply and asking prices only.

Home types across the city

Home type explains much of the price gap between communities. Citywide, YorkNine counted 5,834 condo apartments for sale at a median asking price of $589,000. Detached homes numbered 2,645, with a median of $1,500,000. Semi-detached homes numbered 552, with a median of $1,049,500, and townhouses 233, with a median of $1,089,000.

Condominium apartments make up the largest share of the for-sale stock, which helps explain why many downtown communities sit below the citywide median of $778,000. Communities with more houses tend to show higher medians, though YorkNine's community figures do not split by type.

Readers can browse by type: condos, detached homes, semi-detached homes and townhouses. All current listings are on the Homes for sale in Toronto page, and owners can start with the Toronto home value estimate.
