The average home price in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) has increased by 10%. GTA Realtors reported nearly eight thousand residential transactions through the Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB) MLS in August of this year. This is nearly a 6% increase from the sales reported in August of 2014. Furthermore, the annual growth rate in new listings was greater than the annual growth rate in sales. During this period the average selling price for all types of homes were up substantially. According to Mark McLean, President of the Toronto Real Estate Board homes in the GTA were up approximately 10% year-over-year. With 2015 being a record year for home sales this increase was obvious as competition between buyers exerted upward pressure on selling prices. These trends have thus far remained consistent to last years transactions as we head into the winter months, now we question whether or not 2016 will be another record year.
