Market Data

GTA market data

Published figures from Statistics Canada, the Bank of Canada and the City of Toronto. Every number here carries its source, the date it refers to, and how it was worked out.

No forecast is offered on this page, and no opinion of the value of any particular property. Figures are collected every morning.

Borrowing

What it costs to borrow

Four rates, running from the one the Bank of Canada sets to the one a lender posts. They are the figures a mortgage is priced from, and they move at different speeds — two of them change on any business day, two of them weekly.

None of them is a rate you would be offered. What you are quoted depends on your own circumstances, and only a lender or a broker can tell you that figure.

Policy rate

2.25%

Equal lowest of the 25 months recorded here. Unchanged from the same month a year earlier.

The rate the Bank of Canada charges banks. It moves prime, which moves a variable mortgage.

What this means

This number, in plain words. The Bank of Canada's rate is 2.25%. When it moves a quarter of a point, prime usually moves the same quarter within days — and a variable mortgage moves with prime.

What up and down mean. When a rate goes up, borrowing costs more; when it goes down, borrowing costs less. A variable mortgage follows prime as it moves. A fixed mortgage is set on the day you sign and does not move until you renew.

What it does not say. None of them is a rate you would be offered. A lender prices a mortgage on your circumstances, and a broker can quote a real figure. Nothing here is a prediction of where rates go next.

As of 19 October 2026 · Checked 20 October 2026

5-year GoC benchmark

3.64%

Higher than 23 of the 24 earlier months recorded here. Up 0.94 points from the same month a year earlier.

What the government pays to borrow for five years. Fixed mortgage rates follow it more closely than they follow the policy rate.

What this means

This number, in plain words. The benchmark is 3.64%. Lenders price five-year fixed mortgages above this figure, which is why a fixed rate tracks it more closely than it tracks the policy rate.

What up and down mean. When a rate goes up, borrowing costs more; when it goes down, borrowing costs less. A variable mortgage follows prime as it moves. A fixed mortgage is set on the day you sign and does not move until you renew.

What it does not say. None of them is a rate you would be offered. A lender prices a mortgage on your circumstances, and a broker can quote a real figure. Nothing here is a prediction of where rates go next.

As of 19 October 2026 · Checked 20 October 2026

Prime rate

4.45%

Equal lowest of the 25 months recorded here. Down 0.25 points from the same month a year earlier.

The rate a variable mortgage is quoted against — usually as prime minus something.

What this means

This number, in plain words. Prime is 4.45%. A variable mortgage quoted at prime minus 0.60 would work out to 3.85% today, and would move again the next time prime does.

What up and down mean. When a rate goes up, borrowing costs more; when it goes down, borrowing costs less. A variable mortgage follows prime as it moves. A fixed mortgage is set on the day you sign and does not move until you renew.

What it does not say. None of them is a rate you would be offered. A lender prices a mortgage on your circumstances, and a broker can quote a real figure. Nothing here is a prediction of where rates go next.

5-year conventional mortgage

6.19%

Higher than 17 of the 24 earlier months recorded here. Up 0.10 points from the same month a year earlier.

The posted rate, which is not the rate you would be offered. A broker can quote you a real one.

What this means

This number, in plain words. The posted rate is 6.19%. It is a published list rate rather than an offer — a lender prices a mortgage on your own circumstances, and a broker can get you a real figure.

What up and down mean. When a rate goes up, borrowing costs more; when it goes down, borrowing costs less. A variable mortgage follows prime as it moves. A fixed mortgage is set on the day you sign and does not move until you renew.

New-home prices

What newly built homes cost

This is the only price measure on this page, and it is a narrow one. It tracks what newly built homes cost in Toronto, as an index rather than a dollar figure — 100 is the base year, so 106 means six per cent above it.

It says nothing about resale prices, which are what most buyers and sellers are asking about. Those figures belong to the real estate board and are not published here.

New housing price index

As of 31 August 2026 · Checked 20 October 2026

106.0

Higher than 2 of the 24 earlier months recorded here. Down 4.8 points from the same month a year earlier.

New housing price index over 25 months to 31 August 2026. Every figure is in the table below.100.0103.9107.9111.8115.8Aug 2024Aug 2025Aug 2026

The vertical axis starts at a round number below the lowest reading, not at zero, because an index that moves between 104 and 112 is a flat line above a zero baseline. The starting value is printed on the axis.

What this means

What it is. A measure of what newly built homes cost in Toronto, expressed against a base year set to 100.

This number, in plain words. The reading is 106.0. The base year is 100, so a newly built home costs 6.0 per cent more than it did in that base year. It is a ratio and not a price — 106.0 is not a number of dollars.

What up and down mean. When the line goes up, newly built homes cost more than they did the month before. When it goes down, they cost less.

What it does not say. It is not a resale price and it is not a dollar amount. A reading of 106 means six per cent above the base year, not $106 and not $106,000. It says nothing about what an existing home sells for.

Construction

How much is being built

Two measures of how much housing is on the way, and they happen in order. A permit is the City’s permission to build. A start is the day the ground is actually broken, which can be months or years later — or never.

Neither is a finished home and neither is a home for sale. Both are counted for the City of Toronto only.

Housing starts

As of 30 September 2026 · Checked 20 October 2026

1,440

Higher than 4 of the 21 earlier months recorded here.

Housing starts over 22 months to 30 September 2026. Every figure is in the table below.09481,8962,8453,793Sep 2024Oct 2025Sep 2026

Homes on which construction began in Toronto that month. The axis starts at zero. Where the line breaks, Statistics Canada did not publish a figure for those months.

What this means

What it is. The number of homes on which construction physically began in Toronto in a given month.

This number, in plain words. Ground was broken on 1,440 homes in Toronto that month. It counts homes STARTED — none of them was finished that month, and none of them was for sale that month.

What up and down mean. When the line goes up, more homes broke ground that month than the month before. Because a home takes years to finish, this line moves long before the number of homes available does.

What it does not say. It says nothing about when those homes will be finished, or whether they are for sale. A month with few starts is not a shortage today — it is a shortage in two or three years.

The value of residential building permits issued in Toronto that month, before construction begins. The axis starts at zero.

What this means

What it is. The total value of residential building permits issued in Toronto in a given month.

This number, in plain words. $1.36 billion is the value the City put on the permits it issued that month. It is what somebody was given permission to build, before any ground is broken — not what the finished homes would sell for.

What up and down mean. When the line goes up, the City approved more building work by value that month. A permit comes before construction, so this line moves earlier than housing starts does.

What it does not say. A permit is a permission, not a building. Some are never used, and the value on a permit is not what the finished homes will sell for.

Approvals

What the City has approved

How many building permits the City of Toronto actually issued each month, and how many new homes those permits allow. A permit is permission to build — not a home, and not a home for sale.

This is the City’s own count of permits. The “Building permits” figure above it is Statistics Canada’s measure of what those permits are worth, for the wider Toronto region — a different question, from a different source, published about six weeks later.

The current month is left out until it is over, because a part-month always looks like a fall. Every figure covers the whole City of Toronto — permits are not published by ward.

Building permits issued by the City of Toronto that month, counted from the City's own record of active permits. The axis starts at zero.

What this means

What it is. How many building permits the City of Toronto issued in a month — its permission for work to begin.

This number, in plain words. The City issued 2,765 building permits that month. That is a count of permissions granted — not what they are worth, which is the separate Statistics Canada figure above, and not work that has begun.

What up and down mean. When the line goes up, the City approved more work that month than the month before. When it goes down, it approved less.

What it does not say. A permit is not a building and not a home for sale — work may start years later, or never. It is also not the "building permits" figure higher up this page: that is Statistics Canada’s measure of what permits are worth across the wider Toronto region, published about six weeks later. This one is a count, for the City of Toronto only, and permits are not published by ward.

This number, in plain words. The permits issued that month allow 1,609 new homes. They have permission and nothing more — none of them was started that month, and none was for sale that month.

What up and down mean. When the line goes up, the permits issued that month allow more new homes than the month before. When it goes down, they allow fewer.

What it does not say. Approved is not built and not started. These homes have permission and nothing more; “housing starts” higher up this page is the separate figure for work that actually began. It is also not a count of homes for sale.

Rental buildings

How the City rates rental buildings

The City inspects every rental apartment building of three storeys or more and gives it a score out of 100. It covers rented flats — not condominiums, which are not part of the programme and have no score of any kind here.

Only averages are shown here. The City publishes a score for each building; this page does not, and there is no ranking of buildings or of areas anywhere on this site.

90.6 out of 100

The average across 3,593 rental buildings the City has inspected in Toronto, holding 327,879 homes between them.

It is an average of whole buildings and not a score for any one of them — a building on your street may be well above it or well below it. Only rental buildings of three storeys or more are inspected, so a condominium has no score here at all.

What this means

What it is. The City of Toronto inspects every rental building of three storeys or more under its RentSafeTO programme and gives it a score out of 100. This is the average of those scores, for the city and for each ward.

This number, in plain words. The average across every rental building the City has inspected is 90.6 out of 100. It is an average of whole buildings, not a score for any one of them — a building on your street may be well above it or well below it, and this page does not say which. It also covers rental buildings of three storeys or more, so a condominium has no score here at all.

What it does not say. It is not a score for any particular building, and this site does not publish one — the City publishes its scores building by building and we deliberately show only averages. It is not a ranking of areas and not advice about where to buy. It says nothing about condominiums, which are not inspected under this programme, so an area with no figure has not scored badly. And it is not a statement about the value of any property.

How the City has rated rental buildings in each ward, in the City’s own ward order — this is not a ranking. A ward with fewer than twenty inspected buildings is left out, because an average over a handful of buildings says more about those buildings than about the ward; those buildings are still counted in the Toronto figure above.

Your tax bill

What a reassessment does to your tax bill

Two different bodies decide what you pay. MPAC decides what your home is assessed at. The City decides the rate and sends the bill.

A reassessment does not change how much the City collects in total — it changes how that total is shared out. So your bill goes up only if your home’s assessed value rose by more than the average. If it rose by less than the average, your bill can fall even though your assessment went up.

What your own bill comes to depends on the rate for the year and on your assessment. Both are published — MPAC and the City are in the resource directory, and they are the only places those figures are current.

Short-term rentals

How many homes are let short-term

Homes registered with the City to be let short-term — the register behind the by-law that covers Airbnb-style letting. It counts registrations, not what is actually being let.

Counts only. The City publishes each registration at an address; this page shows none of them, and there is no list of properties anywhere on this site.

8,725

Homes in Toronto registered with the City to be let short-term.

These are the registrations the City holds, not a count of what is actually being let — somebody letting a home without registering does not appear here, and a registration does not mean the home is currently available. It counts whole homes and rooms alike, and it says nothing about which homes they are.

What this means

What it is. Homes registered with the City of Toronto to be let short-term — the register behind the by-law that covers Airbnb-style letting.

This number, in plain words. 8,725 homes there are registered with the City to be let short-term. That is the number of registrations the City holds — not a count of what is actually being let, and not a list of which homes they are.

What it does not say. It is not a count of how much short-term letting actually happens — somebody letting a home without registering does not appear, and a registration does not mean the home is available now. It is not a list of properties and this site publishes none. It is not a judgement about an area, and it is not a ranking: a ward with more registrations is not better or worse than one with fewer.

How to read this

How to read this page

Every figure above, what it is, how it is worked out, and the part most pages leave out — what it does not tell you. Each figure above also carries its own “?” where it appears.

The new housing price index

What it is. A measure of what newly built homes cost in Toronto, expressed against a base year set to 100.

How it is worked out. Statistics Canada surveys builders for the selling price of comparable new houses and land, monthly, holding the specification constant so the figure reflects price rather than a change in what is being built.

What it does not say. It is not a resale price and it is not a dollar amount. A reading of 106 means six per cent above the base year, not $106 and not $106,000. It says nothing about what an existing home sells for.

Housing starts

What it is. The number of homes on which construction physically began in Toronto in a given month.

How it is worked out. Counted by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation for centres of 10,000 people and over, and published monthly by Statistics Canada.

What it does not say. It says nothing about when those homes will be finished, or whether they are for sale. A month with few starts is not a shortage today — it is a shortage in two or three years.

Building permits

What it is. The total value of residential building permits issued in Toronto in a given month.

How it is worked out. Collected by Statistics Canada from municipalities. The figure is the value the permit was issued for, unadjusted, in current dollars.

What it does not say. A permit is a permission, not a building. Some are never used, and the value on a permit is not what the finished homes will sell for.

The interest rates

What it is. The Bank of Canada's policy rate, the five-year government benchmark yield, prime, and the posted five-year conventional mortgage rate.

How it is worked out. Read from the Bank of Canada each morning. The policy rate and the benchmark yield are published every business day; prime and the conventional rate weekly.

What it does not say. None of them is a rate you would be offered. A lender prices a mortgage on your circumstances, and a broker can quote a real figure. Nothing here is a prediction of where rates go next.

Development applications

What it is. Applications filed with the City of Toronto seeking permission to build or change a property.

How it is worked out. Published by the City as open data and refreshed here every morning. The site keeps the most recently filed ones rather than the full history.

What it does not say. An application is not an approval and not a building. Many are refused, withdrawn or changed beyond recognition, and the ones shown here are only the most recent — an older application near you may not appear.

Building permits issued

What it is. How many building permits the City of Toronto issued in a month — its permission for work to begin.

How it is worked out. Counted from the City's own record of active permits, which is published as open data and refreshed here every morning. Permits with no issue date have not been issued and are not counted. The month in progress is left out until it is over, because a part-month always reads as a fall.

What it does not say. A permit is not a building and not a home for sale — work may start years later, or never. It is also not the "building permits" figure higher up this page: that is Statistics Canada’s measure of what permits are worth across the wider Toronto region, published about six weeks later. This one is a count, for the City of Toronto only, and permits are not published by ward.

New homes approved

What it is. How many new homes the permits issued in a month allow to be created.

How it is worked out. Taken from the dwelling-unit count recorded on each permit by the City, added up by the month the permit was issued. A permit for a renovation or a repair creates none and adds nothing.

What it does not say. Approved is not built and not started. These homes have permission and nothing more; “housing starts” higher up this page is the separate figure for work that actually began. It is also not a count of homes for sale.

Short-term rental registrations

What it is. Homes registered with the City of Toronto to be let short-term — the register behind the by-law that covers Airbnb-style letting.

How it is worked out. Counted from the City's own register, published as open data and refreshed here every morning. Every figure is a count for a whole ward; the register is published at an address and this site publishes none of them.

What it does not say. It is not a count of how much short-term letting actually happens — somebody letting a home without registering does not appear, and a registration does not mean the home is available now. It is not a list of properties and this site publishes none. It is not a judgement about an area, and it is not a ranking: a ward with more registrations is not better or worse than one with fewer.

Rental building evaluations

What it is. The City of Toronto inspects every rental building of three storeys or more under its RentSafeTO programme and gives it a score out of 100. This is the average of those scores, for the city and for each ward.

How it is worked out. Read from the City's own open data and refreshed here every morning. A building inspected more than once counts once, at its most recent score. The figures cover inspections from 2023 onward, and a ward with fewer than twenty evaluated buildings is left out rather than averaged.

What it does not say. It is not a score for any particular building, and this site does not publish one — the City publishes its scores building by building and we deliberately show only averages. It is not a ranking of areas and not advice about where to buy. It says nothing about condominiums, which are not inspected under this programme, so an area with no figure has not scored badly. And it is not a statement about the value of any property.

Why some figures show two dates

What it is. "As of" is the date the figure refers to. "Checked" is the last time the site asked the source whether it had changed.

How it is worked out. Some sources publish on a schedule and some publish when they publish. Where there is no schedule — the City's applications, for instance — an old figure is correct rather than late, and what would be a fault is our not having looked.

What it does not say. A "checked" date is not a guarantee the figure is right. It means the source was reachable and said the same thing.
