The April numbers are in, and the market is… shifting 👀

Not dramatically. Not loudly. But in a way that matters if you’re paying attention.

Here’s what we’re seeing:
• Sales up 7% YoY
• New listings down 9.3%
• Average price at $1,051,969, down 4.9% YoY
• Prices slightly up month-over-month

Now here’s the part no one is saying clearly enough:

We’re in a transition window.

For the past year, buyers have had choice, leverage, and time. And while that hasn’t disappeared overnight, the gap is starting to close. Quietly.

Less inventory + more active buyers = pressure building under the surface.

The nuance >> Prices are still lower YoY, which means buyers feel “safe” entering the market. At the same time, competition is starting to reappear in the right properties, in the right neighbourhoods.

This means the best opportunities are still here… but they’re getting picked off faster.

This isn’t a hot market. It’s not a slow market either.

It’s a smart market.

And the people who win in this kind of market are the ones who move before the headlines catch up.

If you’re watching, wondering, or trying to time your next move, let’s talk.

Another closing this weekend! Congratulations to our landlords for closing with their new tenants :) We hope it turns out to be a match made in heaven ❤️ Great work on getting this one across the finish line.

Congratulations to our clients on closing on this cutie of a bungalow in Coburg. We are so grateful for your trust in Matt to help with this big move, and cannot wait to see what you turn the place into.

A little pinch-us moment over here. Being featured in REM is the kind of full-circle excitement that deserves a proper cheers.

We care deeply about doing things differently, marketing homes with personality, and making sure no listing feels like copy-and-paste real estate. To have that recognized by an industry publication we respect means a lot.

Huge thank you to Connie Adair for the feature, and to .ca for the spotlight. We’re honoured, grateful, and only becoming more annoying about design, strategy, and vibes from here.
