GTA HOME SALES AND LISTINGS DROP IN FEBRUARY

 Uptick in Homebuying Expected Later This Year TORONTO, ONTARIO, MARCH 3, 2023 

February sales in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) were down substantially from the pre-rate hike levels of early 2022. However, the number of new listings also dropped substantially year-over-year. The result was that the average selling price and MLS® HPI continued to level off after trending lower through the spring and summer of last year. “It has been almost a year since the Bank of Canada started raising interest rates. Home prices have dropped over the last year from the record peak in February 2022, mitigating the impact of higher borrowing costs. Many homebuyers have also decided to purchase a lower priced home to help offset higher borrowing costs. 

The share of home purchases below one million dollars is up substantially compared to this time last year,” said Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) President Paul Baron. GTA REALTORS® reported 4,783 sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in February 2023 – down 47 per cent compared to February 2022, the last full month before the onset of interest rate hikes. The number of new listings entered into the system was down by a similar annual rate of 40.9 per cent to 8,367. “New listings continued to drop year-over-year in the GTA. Recently released Ipsos polling suggests buying intentions have picked up for 2023. This increased demand will run up against a constrained supply of listings and lead to increased competition between buyers. This will eventually lead to renewed price growth in many segments of the market, especially those catering to first-time buyers facing increased rental costs,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer. 

The average selling price for February 2023 was $1,095,617 – down 17.9 per cent compared to February 2022. Some of this decline is attributable to the fact that the share of sales below $1,000,000 was 57 per cent in February 2023 versus only 38 per cent a year earlier. On a monthly basis, the average price followed the regular seasonal trend, increasing relative to January 2023. The MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) Composite Benchmark was down year-over-year by a similar annual rate of 17.7 per cent, but was also up on a monthly basis. “As we move toward a June mayoral by-election in Toronto, housing supply will once again be front and centre in the policy debate. 

New and innovative solutions, including the City of Toronto’s initiative to allow duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes in all neighbourhoods citywide, need to come to fruition if we are to achieve an adequate and diverse housing supply that will support record population growth in the years to come,” said TRREB Chief Executive Officer John DiMichele.

At the same time, it is amazing because it allows real estate agents to help people achieve their dreams of buying or selling their property. However, being the best real estate agent in Toronto is not just about glossy headshots or ego-boosting, it's about putting clients first and delivering the best results for them. In this essay, I will discuss the importance of putting clients first and the benefits of choosing a real estate agent who does so.

First and foremost, being the best real estate agent in Toronto means that it's not about us. It's not about getting a fast deal or boosting our egos. It's all about the client and their property. As real estate agents, we need to be proud of our clients' properties just as much as they are. We need to listen to their needs, understand their goals, and work tirelessly to help them achieve those goals. It's about creating an experience for our clients that they will remember and appreciate for years to come.

One of the things that sets us apart from our competitors is our attention to detail. We can't believe the stories we hear of realtors doing virtually nothing for their sellers.

Being one of the best real estate agents in Toronto is both difficult and amazing. It requires a lot of hard work, dedication, and a deep understanding of the real estate market.

Real estate is a complicated industry, and it takes more than just luck to succeed in it. With a great realtor by their side, however, buyers and sellers can find success in the real estate market that they never thought possible. Here are a few success stories from real estate buyers and sellers who credit their amazing realtor for their success.

The Homebuyers Who Found Their Dream Home When John and Sarah were ready to buy their first home, they were overwhelmed by the sheer number of options available to them. They knew what they wanted - a three-bedroom home with a yard in a good school district - but they didn't know where to start looking. That's when they found their realtor, who listened carefully to their needs and helped them narrow down their options.

After several weeks of searching, John and Sarah were beginning to feel discouraged. They had seen many homes that were close to what they wanted, but nothing that felt perfect. That's when their realtor told them about a home that had just come on the market - a three-bedroom home with a large yard and a top-rated school district. The home was perfect in every way, and John and Sarah knew they had to have it.

Their realtor helped them put in a strong offer and negotiate with the seller. Thanks to their realtor's expertise, John and Sarah were able to secure the home of their dreams.

The Home Sellers Who Got More Than They Expected When David and Lisa decided to sell their home, they knew they needed a realtor who could help them get the best possible price. They had already spoken to a few realtors, but none of them seemed quite right. That's when they met their realtor, who immediately impressed them with her knowledge and expertise.

Their realtor took the time to understand what David and Lisa were looking for and gave them a detailed plan for how she would market their home. She also helped them stage their home to make it more appealing to potential buyers.

Thanks to their realtor's hard work, David and Lisa were able to sell their home for more than they had expected. Their realtor was able to attract multiple offers and negotiate with buyers to get the best possible price.

The Homebuyers Who Found a Hidden Gem When Mark and Sarah were ready to buy their first home, they had a specific list of requirements - a three-bedroom home with a large yard and a great location. They had been searching for weeks, but nothing had quite met their criteria. That's when their realtor suggested they look at a home that was a little outside of their preferred location.

Mark and Sarah were skeptical at first, but their realtor insisted that the home was worth considering. When they arrived at the home, they were blown away. It was a three-bedroom home with a huge yard and a quiet, peaceful location. The home was exactly what they had been looking for, and they knew they had to have it.

Thanks to their realtor's willingness to think outside of the box, Mark and Sarah were able to find the perfect home for them.

The Home Sellers Who Sold Their Home Quickly When Michael and Susan decided to sell their home, they knew they needed to do it quickly. They had already found a new home that they wanted to move into, but they couldn't afford to carry two mortgages at once. They had already spoken to a few realtors, but none of them seemed confident that they could sell the home quickly.

That's when they found their realtor, who promised to sell the home within 30 days. Michael and Susan were skeptical, but their realtor was confident that she could make it happen.

Thanks to their realtor's marketing expertise, the home was quickly seen by potential buyers.

As a young child, I had a fascination with real estate. I remember staring out the window of my family's car, pointing out houses and buildings, and imagining what it would be like to own them. As I got older, that fascination turned into a passion for becoming the best real estate agent in Toronto.

After graduating from high school, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I enrolled in a real estate program at a local college, and I was determined to absorb as much knowledge as possible. I was always the first one in the classroom, eager to learn and eager to succeed.

The program was intense, but I loved every minute of it. I learned about everything from property law to marketing to property management. I was like a sponge, soaking up all of the information and trying to find ways to apply it in the real world.

As soon as I graduated, I knew I had to hit the ground running. I started working at a local real estate agency, and I quickly learned that being a real estate agent was not just about buying and selling homes. It was about building relationships, understanding people's needs, and being able to negotiate and close deals.

I was determined to be the best, and I worked tirelessly to achieve that goal. I spent countless hours researching the Toronto real estate market, attending networking events, and building my own brand. I even spent my weekends driving around different neighbourhoods, getting a feel for the different areas and the types of homes that were available.

One of the things I quickly learned was that being a successful real estate agent was all about building trust with your clients. People were entrusting me with their most valuable asset, and I knew I had to be worthy of that trust. I made a point of always being honest, transparent, and keeping my clients' best interests in mind.

As I built my reputation and gained more clients, I started to develop my own unique approach to real estate. I wasn't just selling homes, I was selling a lifestyle. I would take the time to understand my clients' needs and preferences, and I would show them properties that fit their unique lifestyles.

For example, if a client was an avid cyclist, I would show them properties that were close to the city's extensive bike trails. If a client was a foodie, I would show them properties close to the city's best restaurants. By understanding my clients' passions and interests, I was able to create a personalized experience that set me apart from other agents.

Over time, I started to develop a loyal client base, and my reputation as one of the best real estate agents in Toronto began to spread. I was featured in local newspapers and magazines, and I even appeared on a few real estate television shows.

But I never forgot where I came from. I still worked tirelessly to stay on top of the latest trends and developments in the Toronto real estate market. I attended conferences and seminars, and I continued to build my network of industry professionals.

And I never lost sight of my ultimate goal: to be the best real estate agent in Toronto. I knew that this was not just about making money or achieving success, but about making a difference in people's lives. By helping my clients find the perfect home, I was helping them achieve their dreams and build a better future for themselves and their families.

Now, as I look back on my journey, I am proud of what I have accomplished. I am one of the most respected and successful real estate agents in Toronto, and I have helped countless people find their dream home. But I know that there is always room for improvement, and I am constantly striving to be better.

I still wake up every day with the same passion and enthusiasm that I had when I first started on this journey. 

Staging a home or condo is the process of decorating and arranging furniture, art, and other accessories to make it more attractive to potential buyers. The best Toronto realtors prefer to use staging when listing a property for sale because it helps the property stand out from other homes on the market, and it can increase the likelihood of a successful sale.

There are several reasons why Toronto's premiere realtors prefer to use staging when listing a property. One of the main benefits of staging is that it helps buyers visualize themselves living in the space. When a home is staged, it is easier for buyers to imagine how they would use each room and how their own furniture and belongings would fit into the space. This can help create an emotional connection with the property and increase the likelihood of a successful sale.

Another benefit of staging is that it can help highlight the best features of a property. A well-staged home can draw attention to the most attractive aspects of a property, such as a fireplace, a spacious kitchen, or a beautiful view. By highlighting these features, staging can make the property more appealing to potential buyers and increase the chances of a successful sale.

Staging can also help minimize the impact of any potential flaws or drawbacks in the property. For example, if a room is small or awkwardly shaped, staging can help show how the space can still be used effectively. Similarly, if a property has outdated features or finishes, staging can help distract from these elements by emphasizing the positive aspects of the space.

In addition to these benefits, staging can also help a property sell more quickly and for a higher price. According to the best Toronto realtors, staged homes sell for an average of 17% more than homes that are not staged. Additionally, staged homes typically sell more quickly than homes that are not staged, which can help reduce the amount of time and money that sellers need to invest in the sales process.

The top ranked Toronto realtors also prefer to use staging because it can help them market a property more effectively. Staged homes tend to look more attractive in photographs and in-person showings, which can help attract more potential buyers to the property. Additionally, staged homes are more likely to be featured in real estate listings and in marketing materials, which can help generate more interest and leads.

There are several different types of staging that Toronto's best realtors may use when listing a property. One common type is called "vacant staging," which involves bringing in furniture and accessories to fill an empty home or condo. This can help potential buyers better understand the scale and layout of the space, and it can also make the property feel more inviting and lived-in.

Another type of staging is called "occupied staging," which involves working with the seller to rearrange and decorate their existing furniture and belongings. This can be a cost-effective option for sellers who want to stage their home but do not want to invest in new furniture or accessories.

Finally, some of Toronto's best real estate agents may use "virtual staging," which involves using computer software to add furniture and accessories to photographs of an empty home or condo. While virtual staging can be a cost-effective option, it is important to note that potential buyers may be disappointed when they see the property in person and realize that it does not look as furnished as it did in the photos.

Toronto's best realtors prefer to use staging when listing a property for sale because it can help the property stand out from other homes on the market, highlight its best features, minimize any potential flaws, and increase the likelihood of a successful sale. Additionally, staging can help a property sell more quickly and for a higher price, and it can help realtors market the property more effectively. Whether using vacant, occupied, or virtual staging, the best Toronto realtors recognize the value of investing in this process to help their clients achieve their real estate goals.

TRREB: TIGHT MARKET CONDITIONS PUSH UP COMPETITION IN THE GTA TORONTO, ONTARIO, April 5, 2023 – Greater Toronto Area (GTA) housing market conditions tightened in March 2023. Sales accounted for an increased share of listings in comparison to March 2022, suggesting that competition between buyers is on the rise. The average sale price was above the average list price for the first time since May 2022. “As we moved through the first quarter, Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) Members were increasingly reporting that competition between buyers was heating up in many GTA neighbourhoods. The most recent statistics bear this out,” said TRREB President Paul Baron. “Recent consumer polling also suggests that demand for ownership housing will continue to recover this year. Look for first-time buyers to lead this recovery, as high average rents move more closely in line with the cost of ownership.” GTA REALTORS® reported 6,896 sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in March 2023 – down 36.5 per cent compared to March 2022. On a month-over-month basis, actual and seasonally adjusted sales were up. New listings were also down on a year-over-year basis, but by a much greater annual rate. This points to tighter market conditions compared to last year. “Lower inflation and greater uncertainty in financial markets has resulted in medium-term bond yields to trend lower. This has and will continue to result in lower fixed rate borrowing costs this year. Lower borrowing costs will help from an affordability perspective, especially as tighter market conditions exert upward pressure on selling prices in the second half of 2023,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer. The MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark was down by 16.2 per cent on a year-over-year basis, but up month-over-month on both an actual and seasonally adjusted basis. Similarly, the average selling price was down by 14.6 per cent year-over-year to $1,108,606. The average selling price was up month-over-month on an actual and seasonally adjusted basis. “As population growth continues at a record pace on the back of immigration, first-time buying intentions will remain strong. Because the number of homes for sale is expected to remain low, it will also be important to have substantial rental supply available. Unfortunately, this is not something we have at the present time. We need to see a policy focus on bringing more purpose-built rental units on line over the next number of years,” said TRREB CEO John DiMichele.

Additionally, the best Toronto realtors can help you identify any potential issues with the property. They can provide you with information on the property's history, such as any renovations or repairs that have been made. They can also help you identify any potential issues with the property's location, such as flood zones or noise pollution. This information can help you make an informed decision when it comes to making an offer on the property.

The best Toronto realtors can also assist you in finding the right professionals to work with during the home buying process. They can recommend mortgage brokers, home inspectors, and real estate lawyers, to name a few.

One of the most important steps in the home-selling process is setting the right listing price and creating an effective listing strategy. In this essay, we will discuss how the best Toronto realtors assist sellers with coming up with the best listing price and best listing strategy.

Setting the Right Listing Price

The first step in selling a home is determining the right listing price. The price of a home can be influenced by many factors, including location, size, condition, and market demand. Setting the right price is crucial because pricing a home too high can scare off potential buyers, while pricing it too low can result in a loss of profits for the seller. The best Toronto realtors  are experts at understanding the real estate market and have access to a wealth of data that can help them determine the right listing price for a home.

One of the most common methods the best Toronto realtors  use to determine a home's value is a comparative market analysis (CMA). A CMA involves comparing the property being sold to similar homes in the same area that have recently sold. This analysis takes into account the size, age, location, and condition of each property, as well as the current market conditions. By comparing the home being sold to similar homes that have recently sold, the best Toronto realtors  can get a good idea of the fair market value of the property.

The best Toronto realtors  can also use other tools to help determine the right listing price, such as automated valuation models (AVMs). AVMs are computer-generated estimates of a property's value based on data such as recent home sales, tax assessments, and public records. While AVMs are not always accurate, they can provide a starting point for determining a home's value.

Finally, the best Toronto realtors  can provide sellers with insight into the current market conditions and how they may affect the value of their home. For example, if the market is currently experiencing a high demand for homes and there is a shortage of inventory, sellers may be able to list their home at a higher price than they could during a buyer's market.

Creating an Effective Listing Strategy

Once the right listing price has been determined, the best Toronto realtors  can help sellers create an effective listing strategy. An effective listing strategy is essential to attracting potential buyers and selling a home quickly and for the best possible price. There are several elements that go into creating an effective listing strategy, and realtors can help sellers with each of them.

Marketing

Marketing is one of the most important elements of an effective listing strategy. A well-executed marketing plan can help generate interest in the property and attract potential buyers. The best Toronto realtors  have access to a wide range of marketing tools and techniques, including online listings, social media advertising, print advertising, and open houses.

Online listings are one of the most important marketing tools for sellers. Online listings allow potential buyers to view photos and details about the property, as well as schedule showings and ask questions. The best Toronto realtors  can help sellers create a compelling online listing that highlights the best features of the property and makes it stand out from the competition.

Social media advertising is another effective marketing tool for sellers. Social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram allow realtors to target potential buyers based on their interests and demographics, making it easier to reach the right audience. The best Toronto realtors  can create engaging social media ads that highlight the best features of the property and encourage potential buyers to schedule a showing.

Print advertising, such as brochures and flyers, can also be effective in generating interest in a property. These materials can be distributed to potential buyers at open houses, mailed to prospective buyers, or left at local businesses and community centers.

TRREB: GTA SALES AND PRICE CONTINUE TO IMPROVE WHILE LISTINGS REMAIN CONSTRAINED TORONTO, ONTARIO, May 3, 2023 – 

The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) housing market continued to tighten in April 2023. On a year-over-year basis, sales edged lower compared to April 2022, but new listings were down by more than one-third. Fewer listings relative to sales meant there was more competition between buyers, supporting an improvement in selling prices since the beginning of this year. “In line with TRREB’s outlook and recent consumer polling results, we are seeing a gradual improvement in sales and average selling price. Many buyers have come to terms with higher borrowing costs and are taking advantage of lower selling prices compared to this time last year. The issue moving forward will not be the demand for ownership housing, but rather the ability to meet this demand with adequate supply. This is a policy issue that requires sustained effort from all levels of government,” said TRREB President Paul Baron. GTA REALTORS® reported 7,531 sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in April 2023 – down by 5.2 per cent compared to April 2022. In comparison to March 2023, sales increased on an actual and seasonally adjusted basis. On a year-over-year basis, new listings were down by 38.3 per cent in April 2023. The MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) Composite Benchmark was down by 12.1 per cent year-over-year in April 2023. Compared to March, the benchmark price was up on an actual and seasonally adjusted basis. The average selling price in the GTA was $1,153,269 in April 2023 – down 7.8 per cent compared to $1,250,704 in April 2022. The average selling price also increased compared to March, both on an actual and seasonally adjusted basis. “As demand for ownership housing has picked up relative to supply, we are seeing renewed upward pressure on home prices. For a short period of time, higher borrowing costs trumped the impact of the constrained housing supply in the GTA. Renewed competition between buyers is once again shining the spotlight on the persistent lack of listings and resulting impact on affordability,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer. “Lack of affordability in the GTA ownership and rental housing markets has been well-documented. On top of this, households faced with steep price increases for basic goods and services have had to make tough decisions to adapt. It is time for governments to make tough choices as well. On average, every dollar a household makes in the first half of the year goes to taxes. Governments need to provide more value for every tax dollar they collect and should be looking for ways to reduce tax burdens moving forward,” said TRREB CEO John DiMichele.
