GTA Realtors® Release May 2023 Stats
TORONTO, ONTARIO, June 2, 2023 – The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) housing market continued to improve from a sales perspective in May 2023. Unfortunately, the supply of homes for sale did not keep up with the demand for ownership housing. Sales as a share of new listings were up dramatically compared to a year ago. This is a clear signal that competition between buyers increased substantially compared to last year, resulting in the average selling price reaching almost $1.2 million last month.
“Despite the fact that we have seen positive policy direction over the last couple of years, governments have been failing on the housing supply front for some time. Recent polling from Ipsos found that City of Toronto residents gave Council a failing grade on housing affordability and pointed to lack of supply as the major issue. This issue is not unique to Toronto. It persists throughout the Greater Golden Horseshoe. If we don't quickly see housing supply catch up to population growth, the economic development of our region will be hampered as people and businesses look elsewhere to live and invest,” said Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) President Paul Baron.
GTA REALTORS® reported 9,012 sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in May 2023 – a 24.7 per cent increase compared to May 2022. Conversely, new listings were down by 18.7 per cent over the same period. On a month-over-month seasonally adjusted basis, sales were up by 5.2 per cent compared to April 2023.
“The demand for ownership housing has picked up markedly in recent months. Many homebuyers have recalibrated their housing needs in the face of higher borrowing costs and are moving back into the market. In addition, strong rent growth and record population growth on the back of immigration has also supported increased home sales. The supply of listings hasn't kept up with sales, so we have seen upward pressure on selling prices during the spring,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer.
The MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) composite benchmark was down by 6.9 per cent year-over-year in May 2023, but up by 3.2 per cent on a seasonally adjusted monthly basis compared to April 2023. The average selling price, at $1,196,101, represented a small 1.2 per cent decline relative to May 2022. On a seasonally adjusted monthly basis, the average selling price was up by 3.5 per cent compared to April 2023.

Sales and Average Price Up in Calendar Year 2013
January 6, 2014 – Greater Toronto Area REALTORS® reported 4,078 residential
transactions through the TorontoMLS system in December 2013 – up by almost 14 per cent
compared to 3,582 sales reported in December 2012. New listings entered into the
TorontoMLS system were down by almost four per cent over the same period.
Total sales for calendar year 2013, at 87,111, were up by approximately two per cent
compared to 85,496 transactions in calendar year 2012.
“After a slow start to the year, sales growth accelerated to a brisk pace in the second half
of 2013. Despite the inclement weather in December, we finished the year with a
respectable gain in transactions compared to 2012. Looking forward, I believe that home
ownership in the GTA will remain affordable as borrowing costs stay low. The result could
be a further increase in sales in 2014,” said Toronto Real Estate Board President Dianne
Usher.
“The average selling price will be up again in 2014 and by more than the rate of inflation.
The seller’s market conditions that drove price growth in the second half of 2013 will
remain in place in many parts of the GTA. Some neighbourhoods, especially those
characterized by low-rise home types like singles, semis and townhomes, will continue to
have less than two months of inventory,” said Jason Mercer, TREB’s Senior Manager of
Market Analysis.
The average selling price for December 2013 sales was $520,398 – up by 8.9 per cent
compared to the average of $477,756 in December 2012.
The average selling price for 2013 as a whole was $523,036, which represented an increase
of 5.2 per cent compared to the calendar year 2012 average of $497,130.
