May 2023 Real Estate Market Update

The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) housing market saw increased sales in May 2023, but the supply of homes for sale couldn't keep up with the demand.
​​​​​​​​​

Sales as a share of new listings rose significantly compared to the previous year, leading to an average selling price of almost $1.2 million. The lack of housing supply has been a longstanding issue, and failure to address it may impact the region's economic development.


GTA REALTORS® reported a 24.7% increase in sales compared to May 2022, while new listings decreased by 18.7%. The demand for ownership housing has risen due to higher borrowing costs and population growth.


The MLS® Home Price Index was down 6.9% year-over-year but up 3.2% on a monthly basis. The average selling price declined 1.2% compared to May 2022 but increased by 3.5% compared to April 2023.
